Craig is the first person I called when I needed someone to help me with a sensitive matter. He handled it quickly, directly, and shared his insight and expertise throughout the process. Highly recommended, A+.
Craig did a great job helping me get my ticket dismissed. He’s a professional who kept me updated every step of the way. He was honest with me from the beginning and is an awesome guy to represent you before the court.
Craig handled my case in a professional manner. I felt confident and comfortable with my case and he was very thorough and clear in his explanations of what was occurring. I was very pleased with the results and would highly recommend him.
I was arrested by the incompetent NOPD, and Craig defended me perfectly and kept me out of jail. He didn't miss a meeting or a court date. He's reliable, and always works harder than the DA. Trust me, if you got charges to beat, he's the dude!
Mr. Mordock successfully handled a matter for me in 2013 and into 2014. For the onset he was timely, engaged and effective. My matter was urgent and time sensitive and he immediately stepped in and showed an incredible sense of urgency with regards to solving immediate situation and then laid out a plan for the successful conclusion of the matter. He was absolutely reliable with the timeliness of his communications and he always answered my call, never once hesitating to thoroughly walk through the steps before us. This issue required several trips to court and at each turn he was prepared and reliably present, sharply focused and well versed on the matters that day. Following Mr. Mordocks advice and guidance, my issue was brought to a successful resolution and the outcome of the matter was one that saved me a tremendous amount of money and time. I would wholeheartedly recommend Craig Mordock for his legal services.
Mr Mordock did exactly what he said he would do for me. He understands and knows the system very well. I had a lot of confidence going to trial with him as he spent a lot of time with me reviewing the facts and preparing me for trial. The Criminal Justice System in my opinion can be compared to the Health Care System, there are a lot of problems and you don't want to go into a hospital without a good doctor nor do you want to go to court without a good attorney. I hope never to need another Criminal Defense Attorney but if I do I will certainly be calling him.
I signed a bail bond to get a coworker out of jail. I was on the hook for $1500 if the defendant didn't show up to court. When the defendant missed her first court appearance, the bail bond company became extremely aggressive and harassing. I contacted Mr. Mordock and he explained the law to me, including the fact that I had up to a year to pay on the bond, regardless of what the bail bond company said. He also contacted the company and got them to stop harassing me, and handled all matters professionally in this regard. Eventually, the defendant was compelled to appear, and the bond was dropped, but Mr. Mordock saved me significant money by not letting me get pressured into paying too early. He did an excellent job on my behalf
From the moment I met with Craig he took my case very seriously. He kept me well informed and handle my case very professionally! I would not change anything about the way he negotiated on my behalf. I was able to walk away with a significant amount of money with not having to file suit. I suggest calling Craig if your looking for justice quickly and free from hassle.
Mr Mordock has been the attorney for my small business since 2009 and I am always please with the service from him and his staff at Butler Mordock. Craig is always quick to cut to the heart of an issue, keep me informed of the process and get the results we want.
Craig is very direct and wants what is right and fair for clients. He defended me in a case and I feel very happy with the outcome. If you want a man who will get straight to the point and do the job without any bs, he is your guy. I highly reccommend Craig!!!
