"Mr. Kolacia is a beyond amazing lawyer. I would give him 100 starts if I could. Being an individual in the medical field who needed an expungement dismissed, it was a very emotional and difficult situation for me but Daniel made me feel confident..."

SUPERWOMAN

SUPERWOMAN!!!!! My daughter was facing 16yrs in prison for a mistake. We could not afford a lawyer. I was going to let her face these charges with public defender, I told my daughter to take a plea. My daughter said no I know I can get better. I prayed and prayed for a solution. Then I started looking for an attorney. I found Erica, thank God I found Erica. Erica said our daughter’s case was a passion of hers and she would fight for her if she got the chance. And boy did she show it. Before we even hired Erica she was in the court room talking to public defenders and the defense attorneys. Right then I knew she was the one. Once she was hired, she went to work. Erica fight tooth and nail for my daughter, she went to work and never stopped. My daughter is at home with us and her daughter right now because of Erica…
"First off I want to thank God for helping me find the most wonderful people that helped my family and I on our worst. I can't thank you more than enough for always being there and taking the extra time to make sure our case continued."

"She will do whatever it takes..."

“This was my first time having problems with the law I had no idea what I was walking into the day at my court I had no attorney I didn't know nothing. she was so sweet she come to me and ask me if I need help. I told her my situation and she explain step by step what would happen, I always told her you were an angel send to me the day of my court. The day I sign with her to be my oficial attorney was the best decision I ever made she was always communicating everything what was coming... always on top of everything. we talk one weekend and it was late at night when needed. For me especially was very importantly that they are in touch with you every little thing.
