"Rand Lucey from Jezic & Moyse, LLC is a superb lawyer. I had a legal issue with some pretty life altering outcomes if I didn't have a lawyer represent me - well he did and his firm did. They had weekend hours during a major snowstorm - and he was there. He was amazing in court, my charges were reduced to just a $150 fine. He and his firm were amazing helpful and put my mind at rest- not to mention my family's minds. I highly recommend Rand and his firm to anyone that needs legal help. I haven't slept that well in a long time. I go to him and his firm for all my legal needs, you should too." - Jonathan
"I was cited for DUI in Montgomery County following a brunch. My BAC was .09. I had never encountered the criminal Justice system before and was very nervous. Rand helped me keep the entire situation in perspective, walked me through the process, was responsive, thoroughly answered my questions, and identified a few defenses to help me secure a favorable outcome. He also prevented me from entirely losing my driving privileges. Ultimately, the DUI charges were dismissed and I plead guilty to reckless driving, receiving one day of unsupervised probation and a fine, all pursuant to a PBJ. I don't know if my result was representative, but I do know that I was absolutely satisfied with the representation I received and without equivocation endorse Attorney Lucey. Please note I also wrote a similar review for his partner David Moyse who was also instrumental in helping me secure this favorable outcome." - Kevin
"Mr. Lucey was totally dedicated to my serious felony jury trial, quickly responding to all my inquiries and meeting with me about two dozen times before trial. He is endlessly patient and honest. He was very flexible around my schedule and my personal needs. He always ensured that my needs and anxieties were addressed. He is also a great team player. His closing argument to the jury was very persuasive and captivating, yet plain spoken, as he spoke directly to the hearts of the jurors. The jury returned a not guilty verdict in a mere two and a half hours. I highly recommend him." - Nicholas
