I faced a Felony charge that sounded terrible on paper, threatening my job, my family and my peace of mind. The whole firm stood behind me and helped me demonstrate to the Department of Children's Services that I was a good parent. They were also able to help me turn a felony charge into an outcome that will later come off of my record completely. If you face serious allegations in Chattanooga, I can highly recommend these guys. Johnny, Bret, Matt and Amanda fought for me every step of the way, and never viewed me as a criminal. Best team that will fight hard for you!

My son made a couple of mistakes and was faced with having a criminal record. Mr. Houston stepped in and provided us with excellent representation. My son will NOT have a record now and is looking forward to the future. I also can't say enough about the staff at Houston & Alexander. Always responsive and informative and really went the extra mile. I cannot recommend them enough!"

The whole staff great. The were professional though out the whole process. From the first meeting they noticed a problem with the law enforcement stop of my vehicle. They were strong in the courtroom and they helped me reach an unbelievable outcome. They treated me with respect though out the entire process. A five star firm.

Experience, knowledge of process, and raw intelligence are what you get. Without these folks, especially Bret, I never would have gotten the outcome that I did. My case was thought impossible, but with patience and the right strategy, Bret and his team helped to get me a result that was better than our "best case scenario." I would hire these attorneys over and over again, and if you have found yourself in a situation like I was, THIS is the team for you.

I was told they are "The Best Attorneys in Town!" Well, there is no better descriptive of them. If your life, job and/or reputation are on the line, look no further. They will give you the best representation anyone can ask for.

I was extremely pleased with the services from Brett Alexander and the whole team at Houston & Alexander. I was out of town and got a DUI. I had never received even as much as a speeding ticket before, so I was obviously very concerned and upset. Houston and Alexander provided me with great advice and counsel and were with me every step of the way. They went above and beyond especially due to my being out of town. End result was complete dismissal of the case!!! I listened and folllowed all of their advice and was extremely pleased with the outcome! They made sure that one bad day did not have everlasting effects on my life and for that and their professional and personal attention and care to my case, I will be forever grateful! I highly recommend them!!!!!

Houston & Alexander were top notch. They communicated regularly and got back to me quickly when I had questions. I had zero experience in criminal court and they got me up to speed quickly. We had successful outcomes each step of the way. They were patient and effective at handling my case. Additionally, I needed help with continuing my case in an area outside of their expertise and they made an excellent recommendation on where to go. I would highly recommend them and plan to use them in any future criminal case.

Professional, competent and unrelenting

From day one, I was impressed with Mr. Brown's experience on all sides of the matter at hand - the charges, the jurisdiction, and the officials involved. He was able to work the case leaving no stone unturned for months without any evidence of his commitment waning. He was unrelenting - like a fox with his eye on the prize. He knew exactly what to do, when to do it and with whom. He orchestrated an outcome that we never imagined, much less hoped for.

We couldn't have had a better experience. No one wants to need a lawyer, but when you do, you'll want Matthew Brown. I highly recommend him specifically and the Houston & Alexander firm.

Great attorneys! Not cheap but you get what you pay for. I could not be more satisfied. Serious, serious case reduced to a simple misdemeanor. I cannot say enough good things about this law firm. If you have been arrested or in a wreck, call Johnny or Bret. Don't call anyone else.

If I could give more than five stars I would not hesitate to do so. These guys are the best of the best! Mr. Matthew C. Brown handled my case and he went above and beyond in assuring I had the best possible outcome. His knowledge and experience in the local area is where he really shined. He knew what to do, when to do it, what to say, and when to say it. In all honesty, he saved my entire future from being destroyed by one stupid mistake. A truly professional law practice.

I have dealt with many levels of law firms over the course of my adult life: family law, estate planning, business law, and more; and I can say with full consumer confidence, that this firm is what more attorneys should strive for in their practice.

Brett Alexander went above and beyond what was required or expected of him to help us settle a legal matter for an employee of ours. It’s worth noting the he did this over Christmas week when the courts were empty of personnel! He demonstrated what you would call excellent client empathy, and I would not hesitate to use them again.

If you’re looking for quality legal representation that is worth what they charge, here they are!

Overall great experience with Houston & Alexander, PLLC. My fiance had some old warrants with an additional theft charge. She was looking at 2 years in prison. Jay planned us a date for her to turn herself in and plead her case to the judge. He assured us a good outcome the whole time and he kept his promise 100%. Additionally, before the turn in date he was very on top of answering any of our questions via phone call or in person. The reception staff is very nice, btw.
In the end Jay got her potential 2 year sentence reduced to a 48 hour hold and a $575 fine. No probation. Dont get me wrong, this was not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I know I got my money's worth from this firm. I am so thankful that we decided to use Houston & Alexander and would reccomend them to anyone in need of a crimnal defence Lawyer. Thanks again, Jay.

Mr Houston is very professional and has a strong court presence. He genuinely cares about his clients and is quick to text back no matter the time or day of the week in emergency situations. He is definitely someone you need on your legal team!

I am updating this solely for my respect for Ken Poston and all he did for my father. I can not remove this review but it has been updated.

EDIT: I was advised in a FREE consultation with Mr. Poston to take the plea deal, learn from my mistake and move on. Based on the information I presented to him, the same information you were given in my consultation with you, that was his assessment. He didn’t need to take my money to tell me that. That is another reason why I took his suggestion to update my review. Your letter was incredibly daft and I wish you all the best in your future. As for my case and myself, we will prevail amidst my mistakes. I CAN be helped and I am NOT crazy. I forgive you for the way you spoke to me. I hope you have a happy holiday with your family.

As an attorney, I cannot say enough good things about this firm. They work hard and get outstanding results for their clients. I would trust them to represent a family member or a friend. Don’t hesitate. Give them a call.

I just want to say that Jay, Amanda, Johnny, and Brett are hands down the best legal team in all of Chattanooga. Following the passing of my grandmother and father from cancer, I started getting panic attacks that have hit me at home, work, and while I'm out with friends. Following a bad day with my other grandmother who has dementia, I experienced an attack one night that led to some legal issues. After a year of working with the Houston & Alexander firm, they got the best outcome I could have hoped for. They were professional, answered my questions, and wouldn't stop fighting for me until they got the answer we wanted. If I could give them more than five stars I would. If you need a lawyer for anything, this is the team you need to call.

I made a mistake and should not have been driving. I was involved in a wreck and was charged with DUI and leaving the scene. Although I thought I was ok to drive, I was charged with DUI and "leaving the scene of an accident." It turned out my alcohol level was over the limit. I am about to graduate college and a DUI conviction would have really hurt my chances of getting a good job. Johnny and Bret told me I had a difficult case and the only guarantee they gave was that they would work hard for me. They NEVER gave up on my case and ultimately persuaded the arresting officer and the DA to reduce the charge. If YOU need help on a DUI or any other case, call them! These men are not only hard working but kind. They made me feel confident in times of great stress and trouble. I am thankful to have met them and to have had them on my team!

I won't go into specifics because they are very embarrassing for my family. But if you have a daughter who has been criminally charged with a serious charge, Johnny Houston should be your go-to gentleman . Because of his hard work , and diligence in our case , we can once again hold our heads High and consider this a lesson learned. Thank you Johnny Houston from the bottom of our hearts!

I was charged with DUI and was worried about getting convicted and losing my license. But Jay and the team at Houston & Alexander worked hard and were able to get the case reduced to reckless driving. They kept me informed throughout the process and are experts in Court. I highly recommend them.

I had multiple charges from different events in separate criminal court rooms. Johnny and Bret attacked each case and whittled them all down to a minor charge. I have a small child and their efforts will keep me from risking separation from my son. If your family depends on you, you will rest well knowing that they have your back in court. Highly recommend this team of experts. Thanks so much Houston & Alexander!!!!

I was falsely accused of domestic violence against my nephew. Bret Alexander was able to clear my name from the charges. I am so happy that I chose Bret for my lawyer. They don't come any better than him.

We've been clients of Houston & Alexander for three years, with Bret Alexander representing us during that time. I can't speak highly enough of his integrity, professionalism, and his dedication to our legal needs. We are so grateful for his guidance and effectiveness through such a difficult time. He's an attorney you can trust and depend on to do the right thing. We are sincerely so grateful. Thank You!

(Translated by Google) Mr Bret Alexander made an excellent statement to the Tribunal and the Attorney General decided not to continue the case.
I would strongly recommend the law firm Houston & Alexander for speeding and drunk driving.

(Original)
Herr Bret Alexander gab eine ausgezeichnete Erklärung vor dem Gerichtshof und Der Generalstaatsanwalt beschließt, den Fall nicht fortzusetzen.
Ich möchte nachdrücklich empfehlen die Anwaltskanzlei Houston & Alexander für Geschwindigkeitsüberschreitungen und Alkohol am Steuer.

(Translated by Google) An excellent service was provided by Houston & Alexander. An arrest for driving while intoxicated jeopardized the work situation and the visa of a member of my family. The great experience of Bret Alexander in such delinquent cases (drunk driving) has been invaluable. A case that could have had a lot of negative impact was finally dismissed after a few weeks and this also thanks to their network within the court of law. To recommend without hesitation!

(Original)
Une excellente prestation a été fournie par le cabinet Houston & Alexander. Une arrestation pour conduite en état d'ivresse a mis en péril la situation professionnelle et le visa d'un membre de ma famille. La grande expérience de Bret Alexander dans les dossiers de délinquance de ce type (conduite en état d'ivresse) a été d'une aide inestimable. Une affaire qui aurait pu avoir beaucoup d'impact négatif a finalement été classe sans suite après quelques semaines et ceci grâce également a leur réseau au sein de la cour de justice. A recommander sans aucune hésitation !

I had too much to drink one night and backed into another car with people inside. I was charged with second offense DUI and felony reckless endangerment. I was at a real low point in my life, many personal issues and my husband had recently passed away. The DA was understandably difficult to deal with. Johnny Houston was able to get the felonies dismissed and I pled guilty to a first offense. Instead of facing significant jail time and a felony, I did a few days in jail and wore an alcohol monitor. I am extremely pleased and happy with the representation I received. Everyone at Houston & Alexander was very courteous, helpful and easy to deal with. I had an issue with the alcohol monitor AFTER my case was over and Johnny was happy to help me with that as well. Great law firm! You would be crazy to go anywhere else.

My case was very complicated and they were able to put my mind at ease to get the best possible outcome for my case. Their knowledge of the law (the minute details), the process (putting together a game plan), and professionalism played a major part in ensuring, what I consider to be, a win. They kept me in the loop every step of the way!

Being posed with any legal scenario is miserable, however while working with Johnny Houston and his team I was able to overcome a great obstacle. The first meeting was solid but it was the subsequent 20 that made the difference in outcomes possible. Johnny fought from a strategic position for nearly 3 years. 3 years!!!. His advice was sound and his strategy paid off. He saved my job, helped my family overcome through good communication, and helped me not to become overwhelmed every time I was concerned.

This is the best of the best in Chattanooga.

Not talking to him.... well it's your case.

I found myself in a difficult situation and was terrified because I had never been in trouble before in my life. After calling Johnny he immediately took time out of his busy schedule and allowed me to come in for a consultation. I was terrified at first but was relieved after speaking with Johnny. He and his staff made me feel at home, and he treated me as a friend not just a client. After my consultation Johnny kept in touch On a regular basis and made sure that I wasn't too stressed until my court date. Everything was dismissed. Johnny went out of his way to help me I couldn't have asked for a better attorney, I am very thankful for Johnny and his help, without a doubt he and his staff are the best! If you ever find yourself in a situation where you need the best there is no one better for the Job! Thank you Johnny!

I had a bad day in TN one morning. I had never been in trouble in my life or ever been detained for anything. Needless to say, I was terrified. My career was in jeopardy; my record was doomed; and I was generally hopeless. I met Johnny the next day and he dropped what he was doing to consult me and review my charges. I knew after the first phone call that I had contacted the man for the job. Sitting with him during the consultation I immediately felt a sense of relief and ease. The two months between consultation and my court date were filled with sleepless nights and a feeling of disgust with myself. Johnny worked hard and navigated this situation with ferocious work ethic and strategy. The outcome was total dismissal! Johnny Houston felt like he was not only a professional partner in my life, but also a friend. His down to Earth approach couldn't have been more comforting in such a time of great stress and uncertainty. In the court room you could tell that he had the respect of everyone present. The other attorney's, law enforcement, and the court staff all treated him with high regard. I had always had a not-so-great opinion of attorney's and a wary opinion of the field. Not so here. Should you ever find yourself in a life situation where you need the best. There is only one option. Johnny Houston and his entire staff. Never consider another. If I could give him 50 stars, I would. Thanks, Johnny!

Represented me for DUI. I cannot say enough good things about them. Prior attorney recommended a plea. Johnny Houston took it to a jury trial. I was very scared but was kept informed and reassured the entire time. End result--NOT GUILTY on all counts and I KEPT MY LICENSE. I cannot say enough good things about this firm. If I had been convicted, my life would have been ruined. You would be crazy to go anywhere else whether you are charged with DUI, another criminal charge or even if you have had a car or motorcycle wreck.
