My family and I continue to use mr. F Clayton Tyler over 30 years. From my son's criminal activity to my divorce. Each case he's taken upfront, no matter how complicated he explains in detail what's about to happen. And he's gotten excellent results. My divorce was final this month I'm absolutely satisfied great job. Mr. Tyler's work ethic is exemplary.

I was raided and charged with a felony for drug and gun possession. I had originally hired a different attorney who I thought wasn't doing a good enough job. I was facing a minimum maximum of 3 years and the prosecution wasn't giving any deals or reducing my time for a plea. I was afraid and desperate!! A family member referred me to Clayton Tyler. The trial that was set up through my old attorney was coming up quickly, Mr. Clayton had the trial postponed and started to work on my case immediately. During our meetings, it was evident that he was very knowledgeable about drug and gun laws. It was also evident that he was well known in the county and state were I was charged. I was impressed by the amount of time that Mr. Clayton spent with me. During our many meeting he would calm my fears by letting me know that he is good at what he does and not to worry. During my different appearances in court Mr. Clayton was always there early to go over our plans so that I was calm and well prepared. I was still very afraid because I was facing 3 years in prison. It turned out that I was found not guilty on the part of the case that would have gotten me those three years in prison and I received a stay of adjudication on the other part of the case. So I ended up with NO jail time and as long as I stay out of trouble I will not have it on my record in a few years. I was so blessed to have Mr. Clayton as my attorney, I was facing a very tough prosecutor but he handled my situation very well. I look to Mr. Clayton as a mentor and even keep in touch with him periodically. I would definitely use Clayton Tyler again if necessary.

Clayton Tyler has been my lawyer for over 10 years. I've gotten into a lot of trouble over the years and Clayton has been there for me every time. He definitely knows what he's doing. He knows almost all the prosecutors and the judges (these relationships have been used to my advantage more than once) I've seen him have private talks with the judges in there chambers many times. Clayton will give it to you strait up, he won't try and sugar coat your situation, he will keep it real with you. Other reviewers have said that after he gets your money he's hard to get a hold of, that IS NOT TRUE. He's not gonna call you every day to sooth your nerves, because he's busy working on your behalf, and negotiating with your prosecutor and your judge. I was never not able to get a hold of him. If he was with a client or in court, Nancy (who is a rockstar) would take a message and make sure he got back to me. Communication aside, the most important thing is outcome. I've had two separate felon in possession of firearm charges, one of them was for an assault rifle. On both of these cases Clayton got me downward departures. That means instead of the 5 year mandatory minimum for each charge, I was only sentenced to a year, meaning I only had to serve 8 months. You can't beat that! Downward departures are hard to get, let alone twice! I've also been charged with a drug felony for selling 1000 pills to a DEA informant. Once we got to court, Clayton got me a deal where I only had to serve two weekends. Two Weekends!!! That was it!! Doing this review is reminding me just how awesome and how much of a Pro, Clayton really is. You'd be a fool to hire anyone else. He's stretched out court dates, and gotten continuances almost as many times as I've wanted. Even when I've messed things up by dropping dirty UA's and not following conditions of release(which I wouldn't reccomend), he was STILL able to secure favorable outcomes for me. I've used Clayton for small things like child support and DWI, as well as more serious things like drug charges and gun charges, etc. And every time he has met and exceeded my expectations. I've seen Clayton in court, get up in front of the judge and deliver an Oscar winning performance on my behalf. He does not like to lose, nor does he like his clients to do any jail time. I remember a time where I was sentenced to like 20 or 30 days in jail, an outcome I was pleased with, but Clayton was mad because I had to do any time at all. He genuinely cares about his clients. There's so many other little, and nuanced things that Clayton does which makes him the best. All I can say is if you want the best possible legal representation you can get, without question go with F. Clayton Tyler

I was arrested early 2018 for a 5th degree drug violation and DUI in Hennepin county. The day I was released I vigorously began searching for an attorney, I made dozens of phone calls before with different attorneys before scheduling a consultation with Clayton Tyler. The Genuine honesty and impeccable knowledge he had to offer made him and ideal attorney for me and I am absolutely humbled by that. Clayton was able to get diversions for both of my charges meaning I didn't have to do anymore jail time and for this I am also greatful. I really appreciate the outstanding service and positive outcome from a very scary time in my life.

F Clayton Tyler was amazing! I had 3 charges against me. felony flee, disorderly, and blocking traffic. The police were trying to charge me with the worst one, felony flee. F Clayton Tyler had the judge dismiss all charges. Not only did he save me from having a felony on my record. He was always available to talk to me when I needed to discuss my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a extremely great defense lawyer.

I got arrested for DWI, Clayton was strongly recommended to me. If you get arrested for a DWI You want the best attorney you can get, this would be Clayton. I found out with DWI laws you are guilty until proven innocent. I blew .087 and never had a DWI. I was never hand cuffed and my car was not towed, yet they filled 4 charges against me. Clayton got three of the charges dismissed and a Stay of adjudication for the DWI. Clayton is a very knowledgeable lawyer with years of experience. Clayton is the lawyer you want on side if you have to go to court. I know this would not have turned out the way it did with out having Clayton as my attorney.

Working with F Clayton Tyler was easy. Why easy? I came to him with a DWI case, gave him the facts, and he took care of the rest. I showed up for court, had accurate representation, and he was able to reduce my DWI to a Careless Driving. I didn't have to jump through hoops, spend hours of needless time on it, and the end result was still positive. It was nice to have everything taken care of so I could go on living my life while F Clayton Tyler did the rest.
