These guys are great at what they do Mar 20, 2025

These guys are great at what they do. I just had a trial and Mr. Crawford proved my innocence for me because we all know in Ellis County it's guilty till proven innocent, so you need the best in the business and these guys are it.

Trust the process Jan 29, 2025

This was my first (and hopefully last) time being on this side of the legal system. I knew I could not navigate my situation on my own and needed a lawyer. From my initial consultation, to my case being dismissed over a year later, Michael, Cedric, and Kim were right by my side. They provided excellent advice and were there when I needed them. Trust the process, you are in good hands!

Michael won't be bullied Nov 11, 2024

Michael Crawford fought so hard for my brother. Even though my brother was ultimately convicted, Michael took all the right steps during the trial to object where, and as often as possible, to set my brother up for a successful appeal. He also had the most serious of the two charges dropped, practically before the trial even started. My brother's conviction was overturned in the court of appeals and he has been acquitted. This was largely due to Michael's knowledge of the law and his determination to fight for my brother's innocence during the trial. He will NOT be bullied! I think that is an extremely important quality in a criminal defense attorney. He won't back down. He and his staff were all very professional. If I ever get in trouble, knock on wood, Michael is who I will be calling.

Highly Recommend Their Legal Representation Oct 14, 2024

I interviewed quite a few other firms before settling on Michael J. Crawford, and I thank God I did. I had an excellent experience with Michael and his team. They were attentive, professional, and genuinely dedicated to my case. We went to trial and had a hung jury, but thanks to Cedric's hard work and expertise, the prosecutor offered me a favorable deal. I’m very grateful for their support and highly recommend them to anyone needing strong legal representation.

Not guilty verdict in 10 minutes Jul 31, 2024

Ennis PD tried to good old boy system me and my company. We took it to trial and Crawford got the truth out of both officers that testified and proved I never did anything wrong. Not guilty verdict in less than 10 minutes deliberations. He laid the truth out so obviously the jury was done within 10 minutes. Thank you for that. I also used him in my divorce case 5 years ago. He got me split custody by providing facts it was best for my son. In my opinion, he is the best lawyer for both family and criminal.
