If I ever need her again, I will call her.”

  • “Let me just say this woman is amazing. One day my bf got arrested for a old charge from 4yrs ago in another county. When I tell you I didn't know who to call or who would be the best. I started googling calling around. Some of law firms I called didn't answer left messages no call backs. But when I finally got to the Eppes Law Firm a couple hrs later I received a call from Demi. I explained my bf's situation and [although] he was in a different country she made it her business. She went to get him out literally THE NEXT DAY. She's very patient, she's understanding and most of all she'll work with you. Just don't mess her over, do her right and I promise she'll take care of you.”
