Mr. Woods was extremely responsive in resolving a case that should have been a civil matter but was illicitly turned into a criminal matter. He secured my freedom in the face of hyperbolic claims and provided me an opportunity to remain a part of my child’s life. My family could never thank him enough for his practical approach to the law which felt both earnest and balanced with a legitimate interest in the truth which is unparalleled in my experience with the legal system. Mr. Woods is a good person who doesn’t make promises he can’t keep, won’t inflate your sense of security to collect your dollars, and overall has an excellent sense of human dynamics that the law is designed to account for. He is an avid agent of the checks and balances of a complex system that wasn’t designed for the common man. Thank you Mr. Woods.
