*****An God Sent Angel Uplifted Me From Darkest Times Of My Life***** I am Kumar from India and an IT professional working as a software developer. I have been living in the United States for more than a decade. Unfortunately, I was falsely accused of domestic violence involving false allegations and lies. As a result, I was embroiled in felony and misdemeanor charges Mrs. Darlina Crowder is a seasoned criminal defense attorney. She is fearless, extremely aggressive in defending her clients, ethical, trustworthy, knowledgeable, experienced, and a truly strong individual in the courtroom. When I first consulted Mrs. Crowder, she patiently listened to my version of events. She is an exceptional listener who carefully understands the details of a case. After reviewing my situation and going through the documentation I had, she was able to see through the case quickly. She assured me that she would do everything in her power to fight for me and pursue justice, even if it meant going all the way to a jury trial. From the beginning, I saw that she was someone who stands by her word. She was not interested in pushing unnecessary plea deals and showed a clear willingness to fight directly in court when justice required it. At that moment, I truly felt that Almighty God had sent an angel to guide me through one of the darkest moments of my life. Mrs. Crowder took over my case as lead counsel and thoroughly reviewed every detail, including family law records, documentation, and exhibits. Her preparation for trial was meticulous and relentless. We were fully prepared to present the truth before a jury. Ultimately, just a few days before the scheduled trial, all the charges against me were DISMISSED. I will always remain grateful to Mrs. Crowder for her fearless advocacy, integrity, and dedication to protecting my name, my career, and my future. If you are facing serious criminal charges and want an attorney who is strategic, aggressive in the courtroom, ethical, and deeply committed to her clients, I highly recommend Mrs. Darlina Crowder. I would also like to make a special note that Mrs. Crowder has successfully represented many clients from the Asian/Indian community and has experience handling cases involving complex cultural and family dynamics. Her ability to understand the background, context, and nuances involved in such situations is remarkable. Because of her experience and insight, she was able to approach my case with clarity and strategic thinking. I would strongly recommend Mrs. Crowder to anyone, including members of the Indian community, who may find themselves facing serious legal challenges. She is truly someone you want by your side when your future is on the line.

I hired this attorney and paid a retainer, but over a year there was almost no communication or progress. She said she was busy working on other cases “day and night,” which was why she didn’t respond. The day before a scheduled court date, she withdrew, demanding $40,000 and leaving us scrambling at the last minute. I felt completely blindsided, vulnerable, and stressed, not knowing how my case would proceed. My case is still pending, and unused retainer funds have not been returned. I am filing a grievance with the State Bar. I strongly advise anyone considering this attorney to carefully review communication, fees, and case management. Also the reviews that are bad are from real person like me and I wish I would have considered them before hiring her.

I hired this attorney and paid a retainer to handle my case. Over a year, there was very little progress and almost no communication, despite my repeated attempts to get updates. When I did hear from her, she said she was busy working on other cases “day and night,” which was given as the reason for not getting back to me. The situation became extremely stressful when she withdrew from my case the day before a scheduled court date, leaving me scrambling at the last minute. My case is still pending, and I am still waiting for the return of unused retainer funds. I am currently filing a grievance with the State Bar and documenting all events. I strongly recommend anyone considering this attorney to carefully review communication, availability, and fee policies before hiring.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Crowder Law Firm. After deciding not to move forward with their services, I requested a refund of the $1,500 I paid. Unfortunately, I have not received my money back, and my calls and messages have gone unanswered. This lack of communication and professionalism has been very frustrating. I expected better transparency and customer service from a law firm. I hope they resolve this matter promptly.

I would not recommend working with Darlina Crowder’s law firm. After paying a $1,500 retainer and deciding not to move forward with their services, we requested a refund for the unused funds. Unfortunately, our calls and messages have gone unanswered, and we have received no communication regarding the return of our money. Professional communication and transparency are extremely important when dealing with legal matters and client funds. The lack of response and failure to address this issue has been very frustrating and disappointing.

By Kristin A. on Mar 03, 2026

Our experience with this firm was frustrating and ultimately disappointing. Communication was inconsistent at best -- it often took days and multiple follow-ups to receive a response, and there were several missteps along the way that added unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation. I do not question that there is knowledge and expertise within the firm, and they frequently reference the strength of "the team" behind the name. However, our experience did not reflect the level of attentiveness or personal engagement we expected. The overall process felt exhausting due to the lack of timely communication and dedicated attention. Our case was ultimately dismissed. While I do believe that retaining an attorney was necessary, I do not feel that this firm provided value beyond what another firm could have offered -- particularly given the level of service we received. I would encourage others to proceed with awareness and ensure expectations around communication and engagement are clearly established upfront.

The Crowder Law Firm was extraordinary in handling my multiple charges. Darlina Crowder was relentless, and her attorney Raven Williams as well, in not allowing me plead to any false allegations that the State could not prove. They were able to get my case dismissed and I felt confident in their knowledge, leadership, and guidance at every proceeding. I am extremely grateful for their remarkable commitment.

By Elijah Frith on Feb 21, 2026

I had a great experience working with Crowder Law Firm. From start to finish, the team was professional, attentive, and truly made me feel like my case mattered. A special thank you to Darlina — she was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding throughout the entire process. She took the time to answer my questions, explain things clearly, and made what could have been a stressful situation feel much more manageable. It’s rare to come across people who combine professionalism with genuine care, and that’s exactly what I experienced here. I highly recommend Crowder Law Firm to anyone looking for a team that not only knows what they’re doing, but also treats you with respect and compassion.

Johnny and the team at Crowder Criminal Firm are top notch. I wouldn't recommend anyone else.

By Will Cummings on Feb 15, 2026

Johnny Lanzillo and the Crowder Law Firm provide exceptional representation. I would highly recommend them if you're ever in need.

By Shea Dausch on Feb 15, 2026

Johnny and his team are the best representation you will find. You can trust him and his team to provide helpful and accurate representation.

I haven’t had court yet, but I wanted to share my experience so far with Darlene Crowder. She has been responsive, professional, and clear in her communication. It truly means a lot to feel heard and supported during this process. Her professionalism has given us confidence and trust as we move forward, and we’re grateful to have her representing us.

I would not recommend Darlena Crowder or her firm at all!!!!!! Our family hired this firm for a very serious case, and from our experience, the representation felt impersonal and unprepared. It often felt more focused on money than on truly advocating for my brother. Different attorneys showed up to hearings instead of the attorney we retained, and several times they appeared unfamiliar with the case details. They were asking my brother basic questions right before going into hearings, which was extremely concerning and made us feel like his case was not being taken seriously. Communication was poor, and we frequently felt left in the dark about what was happening. In the end, the firm withdrew from the case, leaving us scrambling to find new representation while facing an upcoming trial date. This was a stressful and expensive experience that did not meet our expectations. I strongly encourage anyone considering this firm to carefully read reviews, ask tough questions, and make sure you are confident in who will actually be handling your case. Be prepared to lead the case because they don't suggest anything wasted our time a whole year and nothing was ever done Darlena was horrible not sympathetic at all just laughed at our questions and left us more confused she was not what so ever compassionate nor understanding RUNN with you money or they will take it !!!!

From our First consultation, they were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about my son's case. Darlina Crowder and staff had kept me informed about my case every step of the way! If u need a skilled, trustworthy lawyer Darlina Crowder and Firm is the best!

I was facing one of the worst moments of my life. My public defender was ready to accept a 10-year sentence, and I felt like no one was on my side. Crowder Law Firm believed in me, took my case seriously, and got my probation reinstated. They gave me a second chance when it felt impossible. I will always be thankful.
