Cameron Hirtle2022-07-07Anna graciously provided some of her valuable time and sat on the phone with me addressing my first DUI citation. She provided sound legal advice for me on how to approach my arraignment, seek legal counsel, and prepare for the best outcome. Thank you again for your patience and I highly recommend to seek her consultation regardless of your situation.
Kiran Fisher2022-02-03Anna is incredible at what does, very knowledgeable about the law and also will go above and beyond for her clients. I've worked with other lawyers in the past and can truly say that none of them came close to the level of service I received from her.
K Bierly2022-01-14Put my truck in the ditch to avoid an accident and two hours later police show up at my house ..three officers including the chief tag teamed me in the driveway for over an hour about what happened and then without cause pursued a DUI case against me after the fact as well as Other charges…. I hired Anna the next day based on her amazing reviews from other clients and was not disappointed… First thing that happened…We had a hearing with the Dmv to challenge the suspension of my license for one year… which is rarely successful … But after the arresting officer presented his report of the incident to the administrative judge…… Anna very quickly saw many issues with the report… The most severe one being coercion and lack of probable cause to pursue a DUI case … The officers had also violated my right to refuse Under the implied consent law ……as well as several other issues with the investigation… in her cross examination of the report she pointed out the coercion and the inconsistencies in the report and explained that The officers did not have probable cause to pursue a DUI case …. … as a result the judge ruled the charges invalid… and did not suspend my license… And as a result of her cross examination All charges were dropped…… Anna is amazing she’s very knowledgeable in the law and can quickly analyze the situation and know how to move forward in the best way possible… If you need an attorney do not hesitate to hire her you will not be disappointed….

Tiffany B.2021-02-15Anna P. Sammons is not just exceptional at her career; she loves what she does and believes the best in people. I was in a unique situation that felt like my whole life was ruined, but her professionalism and experience to calm me and keep me focused through it all is like her secret weapon. There wasn't a situation I wasn't prepared for because of Anna, or a question I was asked that Anna didn't already tell me about before hand. Then when I finally had my day in court and would say I was represented by Anna, everyone knew who she was and I immediately had a "safe feeling" from being taken advantage of because I'd never been in this kind of situation before. Anna P. Sammons works for her clients because she believes in them and I really don't think there's any better kind of representation than her when getting the high class treatment I felt in Anna's care.

Allen Lowe2020-11-23I will be forever grateful to Anna Sammons for her defense of and heartfelt advocacy for my son. When she agreed to take his case, she and her staff dedicated themselves to finding out what happened to send his life off the rails, as it did when he was arrested. She and her investigator mounted a thorough investigation and mental health assessment that turned a perilous legal situation into a positive mental health treatment plan and probation. Anna Sammons is the most compassionate, insightful and effective attorney I have ever encountered. Highest recommendation possible.
Stephanie Sharp2020-11-22Anna Sammons fought hard for me when I got myself in a bad situation. If it wasn’t for her I would be in jail. She got me in to the DUII diversion program when originally the prosecutor was absolutely against it. Anna also got another charge dropped which could had affected me in the future. She recommended another amazing divorce attorney for me. If I need any help in the future I would call Anna in a heartbeat! Thank you Anna for being so amazing and helping me through every step of the process! I am eternally grateful for you!!!
