Other than the process taking a year everything went pretty smooth. I have no complaints with my attorney. The prosecutor really held things up but because Mr. Betteau out-waited him I did get a better deal in the long run! Hopefully I will never need to hire him again. Would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a great criminal lawyer.

I had hired Mr. Betteau for several cases at which I was looking at alot of time in prison and probation as well, Bart told me how each court or charge needed to be approached and what I needed to do on my end and he told me what he thought could come out of these situations that I was in... well Bart did exactly what he said exactly and definitely knows his stuff, he was very professional and he talks to you with a charisma about himself. He kept everything honest with me and he can be a bit higher but I'd rather pay for someone who is honest, dependable and very good at their profession than hire me a cheap lawyer that will just give you what the state offered more or less. Bart Betteau is a man I admire and he saved me in many ways, I am now a sober woman for over a year with no jail time. He advised I go to treatment and with him believing In me caused more hope in my outcome and his faith in me made me feel really like I had a second chance, it's more than just paying for a attorney when it comes to Bart its alot more that words can describe & his office is the most accurate and professional women who care and actually do their job and carry a certain respect towards the people who are in trouble, they don't make you feel judged or treat you differently, hiring Bart was the best decision I ever made after all the bad decisions that I had made. I totally respect him for his work he does and the approach he takes. He is highly skilled and I recommend that you higher Bart! If you do, you better be ready to handle your issues and not play around, Bart Betteau is the best attorney out there! Thank you Bart! #1 Respectfully, Brittany

Bart used his extreme knowledge of the law to "make" the court system do the right thing. I was very impressed and satisfied.

Bartteau did a great job on my case. He did more than every other lawyer I talked too said they could. I recommend him to everyone and if ever I need legal help in the future, he is the man!

Mr. Betteau and his team were very helpful throughout what was a very unnerving process for me. I never thought I would be in a position where I needed an attorney for an OWI, but I'm glad I hired Mr. Betteau when I did need one. He was very knowledgable throughout the process, offering advice on what I should do to help my case. In the end, the charges ended up being reduced. I would recommend Mr. Betteau to others in a similar position.

Bart has represented me in various misdemeanor and felony cases in both Clark and Floyd Counties. After a 2 day trial I was found not guilty of all charges in one case, many other cases were simply dismissed, and in a few I took very, very good plea deals. He is a very sharp and very intelligent individual. I wouldn't ever consider hiring any other attorney besides Bart. He also has a very talented and professional legal assistant named Chris.

Mr. Betteau was excellent and extremely thorough when representing my husband. He is a bulldog that doesn't stop until he has gotten you the best possible outcome. I watched as lesser lawyers had their clients accept far less when their charges were the same as my husbands. I wish I had hired him for may daughter as her outcome with a less experienced lawyer seemed as if he didn't fight as hard as he should have and he did not see the process through to the very end. Bart Betteau will not leave you hanging like that.

WITH NUMEROUS DRUG ARREST AND CONVICTIONS FOR WEAPONS CHARGES AND DRUG CHARGES I FINALLY HIRED BART ON MY LAST CASE. BART WILL DO WHAT HE SAYS THERE IS NO BETTER PLAIN AND SIMPLE. I DID NOT GET ONE DAY IN JAIL FOR THE 16 YEARS THAT THEY TRIED TO PUT ON ME. (DISMISSED) I PAID ANOTHER GOOD DRUG ATTOURNEY MORE THEN BART AND GOT THE 16 YEAR OFFER AND PAID BART AND FIRED THE OTHER (SO CALLED) BEST ATTOURNEY AND BART SMASHED AND TORE THE PROSECUTION APART AND MADE THEM ALL OUT TO BE LIARS. HE IS RUTHLESS AND KNOWS THE LAW BETTER THEN ANY JUDGE, PROSECUTOR OR ATTOURNEY IN THE AREA. HE WILL NOT LIE TO YOU AND DO EXACTLY AS HE SAYS. IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT ANY CRIME AND CAN AFFORD HIS SERVICES, I SUGGEST DOING WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THE MONEY REQUIRED FOR THE BEST. HE IS A BEAST........ THEY DEFINITLY FEAR HIS KNOWLEDGE AND SEEING HIM IN ACTION IS WORTH TWICE WHAT I PAID, JUST SEEING PUT THEM IN THERE PLACES MAKES IT WORTH EVERY PENNY LEAVEING WITH A FEELING THAT MAKES YOU VERY HAPPY. I JUST CANT SAY ENOUGH BART YOU SAVED ME, WHEN THE LAW GUNNED FOR ME AND EVERY OTHER ATTOURNEY SOLD ME OUT. YOU ARE THE ONLY ATTOURNEY IN THIS AREA FOR THERE CLIENT. I AM ABLE TO BE WITH MY FAMILY TODAY BECAUSE OF YOU.. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND GOD BLESS YOU FOR YOUR MAGNIFICENT WORK.

Unfortunately, I have had to use legal services. Fortunately, there is Bart Betteau! Bart left no stone unturned and was extremely through in reviewing all the evidence in my case. When Bart speaks in court or to his colleagues, they all get very quiet and listen intently, as they almost always learn something. Bart knows the law, and judges, prosecutor's, law enforcement or anyone who has interacted with him trust in his knowledge and know if he is on the case, they better have all their facts straight! Bart is the very best...look no further. He is worth his weight in gold.

I met Bart in 2012, I was in some series legal trouble! Once I met and talked with him I immediately hired him! Bart went above and beyond for me! I am more then completely satisfied with the job he did for me! His staff his professional, understanding and prompt! I will continue to keep Bart as my attorney and I will always refer anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney to Bart because he does an extremely great job!
