Fom Former Clients:

Highly Recommended: We were given a referral to Mr. Thomas Coan by someone very pleased with his representation. Thomas worked with us for a year as there were a number of extensions. He listened to us and gave us a clear plan of action to prepare for court. He was honest about the possibilities of how the case could turn out, which allowed us to prepare if it went to the negative. He took many notes and asked a lot of questions. There was a video of the incident which he viewed multiple times.
We had a number of friends and family that came to court with us. When the case was dismissed and there was much rejoicing, he was genuinely glad and even joined us all for a coffee celebration! We highly recommend Mr. Thomas Coan. Posted by Jerry, 2019

A remarkably knowledgable attorney, a caring, kind man... a nightmarish period of my life, Tom has proved to be not only an incredible advocate, understanding all pertinent facets of the law,but also the kindest, most heartfelt counselor one could imagine. He is a remarkable attorney and a remarkable human being. Posted Martin, October 2018

Five stars is not enough! I retained Thomas after my previous attorney advised me to plead guilty to a felony that I did not commit. Thomas actually spent the time to examine all of the prosecution's evidence. He picked apart and disproved all charges before it went to trial. He relentlessly fought for me and my family every step of the way. Thomas was exceptional at communicating and responding to my questions quickly. In the end I did except a plea of a class B misdemeanor. This was a great win considering the original charges were measure 11 felony and 2 class A misdemeanors.
I would highly recommend Thomas Coan to any person facing criminal charges. Posted by Stevan, October 2018.

An Honorable And and the Best Attorney Tom Coan has the rare ability to actually stay engaged and listen to what his client is saying. With great patience, and without being condescending, he is able to gather all the evidence, good and bad, and mold it into excellent defense strategy. His attention to the smallest of details, coupled with his demeanor in the courtroom, has given my friend the confidence and strength needed to make it through his trial. Thank you Tom Coan, for not only being a great attorney, but for also being a good man. Posted by Deb, March 2016

Highly Recommended I called Mr. Coan after getting arrested for pot possession. He made me feel comfortable immediately and assured me he would do his best. Mr. Coan was always there to answer questions and concerns, keeping in contact through email and phone. This case could have included jail time, a fine, and suspension of my license. Thanks to Mr. Coan's expertise, the case was dismissed! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest, knowledgeable

Unplanned Event I think most would say that the need for a Criminal Defense Attorney is unplanned. Being an unplanned event it is often and can be jarring should it be a first experience. The justice system if it can be called that isn't concerned about justice and is instead concerned about winning and losing. For these reasons it is important to be represented by an attorney that understands what you're experiencing and guide you through what can be described as a minefield. Your goal is to have your first experience be your last and I can whole heartedly recommend Thomas Coan as an advocate with your best interests as his sole interest. Thomas is trust worthy and how many people can you say that about? Anonymous 2014

3 cases (so far) I have known Mr. Coan for several years now. He has represented me in three (3) total cases over the years, and each one he has helped me achieve the desired results. He is always respectful and easy to work with. I plan on using him again in the future if I somehow find myself in trouble. Posted by Tyler, November 2014
