Hands down honest hard-working dependent
I can't believe it's been this long already went to trial for possession of a firearm, allegedly stolen firearm back in August 2023. I was found passed out at a gas station due from being up too long and a cop pulled up to do a welfare check allegedly, the cop found out I had a suspended license so ask for me to step out of my vehicle I had a pistol on my hip obviously he found it and took me to jail for being in possession of a firearm as a felon spent quite a bit of time in county jail taking it to trial for about a year and beat my case with a lawyer named Matthew Muller, I was blessed to receive him as a pro bono lawyer even though he was pro bono he worked very hard on my case and treated it seriously. He kept in contact anytime I needed to speak to him he would get a hold of me within a week or so probably would have been sooner if I was not incarcerated. He has a lot of cases that he does for pro bono my case was in Warrenton Missouri. He definitely is one of the best lawyers I've ever met he knows his way through the laws if I would ever need a lawyer he would be the one and only one I would call. I am so grateful for him I was looking at quite a bit of time because Warrenton Missouri the prosecutor that was Kelly King at the time always would look for the max sentence for anyone. He fought for a very long time and it paid out. I was charged with three counts and all of the counts I was found not guilty. If you need a good lawyer I would highly recommend Matthew Miller. He may be a little expensive but he will definitely fight and give you your money's worth.
Matthew if you're reading this I want to thank you again. Even a thank you it's not enough for what you done for me. I cannot stress this enough if you're looking at some pretty big charges looking to sit for quite a while contact him and talk to him. As I said he will be upfront and honest with you he will let you know if you have a chance or not. When we started my case he told me I didn't have a really good chance but after him looking through things doing his research filing motions. He found a way to give me a Fighting Chance and it prevailed. My case was dismissed trial took 2 long stressful full days. But at the end I walked out as a free man. Again contact him I give him a 10/10 review,
And I would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Matt is very direct. I trusted his advice both legal and otherwise because of how clear and understanding he made it. Also, it was due his deposition of an officer that really blew holes in the prosecutions accusations and virtually ended my charge. Matt is the guy

Q. Wondering if I may have a case for dismissal
A: At your initial appearance before a judge, the judge is required to appoint a lawyer for you if a conviction for the offense you are charged with would probably result in confinement and if you are shown to be indigent (i.e. unable to hire your own counsel). See Missouri Supreme Court Rule 31.02(a). In this regard, the case for dismissal may be not so much a result of the judge failing to ask you what your plea was to the charge(s), but rather a result of the judge failing to appoint a lawyer for you for purposes of entering into the plea. Please keep in mind that you are at risk of having waived certain time-sensitive rights, such as the right to change of judge and/or change of venue, which
Q. My attorney refuses to file a motion to withdraw guilty plea.
A: Under Missouri law, a defendant can ask to withdraw his guilty plea if he can show that he was misled or induced to enter a plea of guilty by fraud, mistake, misapprehension, coercion, duress or fear. There are generally no time limits for filing a Motion to Withdraw a Guilty Plea under Rule 29.07(d), but keep in mind that if you pleaded to a felony, than your relief might be limited to Rule 24.035, whereas if you pleaded to a misdemeanor, then your only avenue for relief would be to file a motion to withdraw your guilty plea under Rule 29.07(d) because relief is not available under Rule 24.035 for misdemeanor offenses. You should consult with a different attorney to explore your options to
