My name is Cole, and I recently retained Halberg Criminal Defense, specifically attorney Eric Nelson. From the very first phone call, Eric shot me straight and told me exactly what approach he would take with my case and what the cost would be. I’ll be honest — I was skeptical at first. I’ve hired different lawyers for various things in my life, and in the past I’ve had a lot of promises made that were never followed through on. My experience with Halberg Criminal Defense was the complete opposite. The outcome of my case was exactly what Eric told me it would likely be during our very first conversation. There were no surprises and no runaround. I’ll put it simply: you get what you pay for. If you want a firm that is honest, straightforward, and delivers on what they say, I strongly recommend Halberg Criminal Defense. I’m a real person — this is not a bought review. I’m a blue-collar guy who calls it like he sees it, and this law firm is the real deal. — Cole
Stephanie Ogier was the attorney I hired from this firm. I provide a 5-star review because our goal was reached and she was good to work with. I needed the expertise of an attorney to appeal a court order of protection that was filled with 100% false allegations. Stephanie was able to negotiate with the accuser's attorney and have the Order of Protection dismissed without going to a evidentiary court hearing. What I really appreciated about her was the fact that she gave me all the time I needed during the whole process. If I needed things explained more than once, she gave me that time and walked me through understanding things until I did. She provided great legal representation!
Thank you for the positive review. Stephanie enjoyed working with you and is grateful she was able to help you through this stressful situation.
Had some legal issues and the Halberg team did an outstanding job of getting me through the legal process. Best money I ever spent. If you have legal issues you can not do better then Halberg. They helped me from the very beginning and never stopped being in my corner to the very end. Keeping me informed in every step. The legal system is very complex with dates you have to meet Halberg team never missed a beat and always on time and was prepared for everything the courts and came up with. Very professional. If you need legal assistance Halberg Criminal Defense attorneys can help.

I highly recommend Lucas Dawson. She was amazing to work with, she was amazing at communicating and helping me understand any questions I had. She is extremely professional and caring towards her clients. She always made sure I knew what was going on with my case as soon as she had any updates, and she was always willing to go the extra mile to prove my innocence. Lucas was able to turn a nightmare into an amazing outcome and thankfully, because of Lucas I feel I have my life back. I will forever be grateful I had the opportunity to meet her and have her represent me.
Thank you for the great review. We think Lucas and the rest of the team are amazing too!
I would highly recommend Zach Graham for your legal needs. He was efficient and very thorough. He successfully handled our case quickly. I also was able to leave it all in his hands and outside of quick conversations and a few documents I was able to not have to spend a ton of time on it. This was such a huge blessing to our family during this time!
Thanks for your kind words. Zach is grateful he was able to help your family in trying times.
I cannot recommend Stephanie Ogier and her team enough. Communication was very convenient.....even had on-call attorneys.......and everything was explained thoroughly. All my questions were answered and results were better than anticipated!
Thank you for the review. Happy to hear that you enjoyed working with Stephanie and the team.
I highly recommend Lucas Dawson she is a amazing attorney.
Thank you for the review and kind words about Lucas.
I would highly recommend Dave Risk and his team to anyone in need of a highly knowledgeable and experienced Defense Attorney. He is very strategic and has excellent negotiating skills. I felt he listened to me compassionately, at the same time he and his team kept the lines of communication open and clear. The outcomes were better than expected. He is truly passionate about his career. Excellent Defense Attorney!
Thank you for the kind words. We think Dave and the rest of our team are fantastic as well!
My husband recently got in some trouble and was charged with a Felony and DWI. We hired Debbie Lang at Halberg Defense. WOW. We could not have been more happy with her assistance. Her knowledge of the law and respect in the courts is phenomenal. She was able to negotiate and get his charges lowered. What could have been our worst nightmare turned into minimal sentencing. We highly recommend Debbie Lang.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Great to hear that Debbie was able to achieve successful results for your husband!
Marsh has gone above and beyond for us - I can't say I ever expected to be a situation like mine, but I can say that Marsh saved my life. Marsh responds to every text or phone call instantly, no matter the time and always has time for you no matter where you are you in your journey. While I hope you never have to use his services, if you are in a situation that requires a defense attorney, this is your ONLY option.
Zach Graham made my situation feel much less stressful the minute I contacted him! Helped me so much with my case and even after my case with getting my license back from the DMV!!! Highly recommend Zach to anyone in need
Amazing experience! Very professional! Debbie Lang was able to get me the outcome needed. I was more than impressed with the way she handled my case. She was great with communication during the entire process both with me and the prosecutor. I highly recommend her!
Halberg consists of a knowledgeable, hardworking and speciality diverse group of lawyers and staff who will work diligently and keep you in the loop on all details of your or your loved one’s case. Christina Zauhar in particular is incredibly sharp, hard working, logical, and above all, knows how to win a winnable case either at the negotiation table or at trial.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Defense Attorney – Highly Skilled and Dedicated I had the privilege of seeing Christina Zauhar in action on a case and cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, knowledge, and commitment. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand every detail of the case, explained the legal process clearly, and made sure the defendant always felt supported and informed. What truly stood out was Christina’s command of the law and courtroom presence. She was exceptionally prepared, persuasive, and strategic in every argument — ultimately securing an acquittal. Throughout the entire process, she demonstrated genuine care, integrity, and unwavering dedication to achieving justice. If you’re looking for a defense attorney who is not only highly knowledgeable but also compassionate and fully engaged in your case, I wholeheartedly recommend Christina Zauhar.
Halberg Defense and namely my attorney, Stephanie Ogier, were fantastic during the phases of my case. From the first consultation phone call to the last trial, Stephanie and Halberg Defense were amazing in answering my many questions, preparing me for each step of the way, and working effortlessly to have the most minimal result possible. While I do not hope the situation presents itself, I would absolutely work with Halberg Defense again.
I cannot recommend Dave enough! From start to finish, he has been an absolute lifesaver. Not only did he get me the best result possible in my case, but his honesty and transparency throughout the entire process truly set him apart. Dave took the time to explain everything clearly, managed my expectations realistically, and never once overpromised. His dedication, expertise, and professionalism made all the difference. If you're looking for an attorney you can trust to get you the best outcome while keeping it real, Dave is your guy.
I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Debbie Lang here at Halberg Criminal Defense, she is extremely thorough, and helped guide us through this process making dealing with our particular situation seamless. She helped negotiate a deal that was impressive to say the least. I highly recommend her at Halberg Criminal Defense.
A wonderful firm to work with; Very pragmatic, and understanding. They helped me defend my constitutional rights and I will forever forward friends and family their way.
Wow where do I even start with this firm. I was in a contentious multiple state divorce and termination parent rights case. The attorneys at Halberg are class act I have worked with 3 separate firms in over last 5 years. The attorneys at Halberg meet with you explain everything and give 110% from meeting with you on weekends trial preparation and working and skipping their own lunches to navigate and keep on top your cases and trial in real time to achieve you the best results possible. I highly recommend Halberg Defense they will go above and beyond to stand with you in all legal situations!
