Absolutely recommend this law firm! Jun 6, 2025

Absolutely recommend this law firm! Our lawyer, Alex King, was truly impressive. We called on a Monday, early evening, he answered the phone. We explained our situation and he went to work for us right away. We had yet to sign the contract and he was already making phone calls that Tuesday morning. The entire office is caring and compassionate, and above all, patient with their clients. No matter how many times I called with questions about the case, they always got back to me right away. I truly pray we never have to hire a criminal defense attorney ever again, but if we do… it will definitely be Alex King and his firm! This is for the business First Coast Defense.

Handled My Nephew’s Case Exceptionally Sep 29, 2024

I really appreciate the way Mr. King and Ms. Whitney handled my nephew’s case. Mr. King is very knowledgeable of the law, and he is extremely calm and patient. He listened to my input, and in the end, we got pretty much everything we requested from the judge. In addition, Ms. Whitney took a personal interest in the case, and she put together an exceptional presentation that was presented to the judge in the case. I believe her diligence and exceptional work greatly influenced the outcome of the case.

Grateful for Their Help Sep 19, 2024

Mr. King and his office staff represented me in a case. They were able to lower my bond and make it possible for me to work, even though I had certain charges that would prevent me from working. Every part of Mr. King’s team was very cooperative and transmitted every question I had to the right person, and they came back to me explaining everything in the simplest terms for people who do not deal with law to understand. Also, I’m very grateful for them to have gotten me into a program to get some help so I can do better in life and make the right choices.

Alex is very prompt and knowledgeable with a very professional team. He is not impossible to talk to when a phone call is made to him. He does call back when he is not available. The communication he and his staff provide in a timely manner was excellent. I would suggest his services to anyone wanting/needing professional representation.

Sheryl Jones

Reduced Felonies to Misdemeanors Sep 5, 2024

Alex King is a former prosecutor. He has connections. He gave me his personal cell phone number, said I could call him anytime. I was facing 2 felony charges. He had them reduced to the lowest possible misdemeanors without me having to even show up at court. I believe that I would be in jail, if not in prison today without his representation. Everyone in his office was very patient, polite, and helpful.
