My Case Was Dismissed
I had a difficult situation to face. I hired Mr. Garrett because after I talked to him about my situation he was able to see things concerning my case that others did not. In the midst of my sorrow and worry, he and his staff were compassionate, helpful, supportive, and understanding. I didn’t have to go to court one time and my case was dismissed!! I am grateful for all they have done on my behalf, and I highly recommend Mr. Garrett! Thank you, Vanover Law Firm!! Hire them and you won’t be sorry.

I Strongly Recommend
I strongly recommend!!! The absolute best decision I made! First, the wonderful ladies at the Lewis Boulevard office were very understanding and very knowledgeable. They treated me as a family member and not a client. Then I got to talk to Mr. Garrett. He was honest and respectful from the first call to the end. He gave me respectful responses and is very honest. He told me the worst-case and best-case scenarios. He said, "I plan to help you." There was nothing wrong on the state's end and he still had my charges dropped to a lower sentence. Happy to say, "Even if you're guilty, Mr. Garrett will/maybe lower your sentence." Dean Robert Wood. September 24, 2025.
They could have given me jail time. Mr. G and team, I appreciate you!

This team is truly amazing
I want to start by saying, if you ever find yourself in a difficult legal situation, look no further. This team is truly amazing. Working with Mr. Garrett and Mrs. Angela was an easy, thorough process that made everything feel manageable, especially for someone like me who had never been in legal trouble before.
They guided me every step of the way, making the process swift and stress-free. Their dedication, professionalism, and quick responses no matter the time of day or method of communication were unmatched. I cannot express enough gratitude for the time and effort they put into my case.
I will always be thankful to have had Vanover represent me.

Cannot express the gratitude I have
Exactly where I started reading the reviews and now I'm back where I started to write my own. Cannot express the gratitude I have for the staff there at Vanover Law Firm. Mr. Garrett put the time, work, and energy into my case (not giving up mentality) and accomplished the positive outcome I was looking for. Both Mr. Garrett and his staff are very professional, skilled, and communicative throughout the process. Cannot mention enough about the staff (the backbone) there at Vanover's... Angela, Charlotte, Eve (the very first one I met coming through the door), and another receptionist (so wished I caught your name) but just as important. A big thanks for everyone's effort handling this case of mine. Will recommend this firm to anyone for looking for their assistance.
