“I put my faith in Jeff Purvis, and his team! My court appointed attorney was a complete failure, who suggested he'd request being removed from my case because I asked him to request a dismissal. The case had so many things wrong with it, and even with a plaintiffs request of non-prosecution and two witnesses, my attorney tried to get me to take a plea, for something I was innocent of, even suggesting he couldn't win because of a past record and my race, and stated "It is Brazoria County!" I had 8 months unable to work at regular job because it was already showing on a background check. Just out of surgery, not making money, and this too!”- David R.

“I found Crenshaw & Purvis beginning of 2024, about 6 months from when the “assault” I was accused of took place. I was terrified, never had a criminal history, and the way society is going right now, I thought I would be guilty without a doubt, no matter the circumstances. As someone who isn’t easily trusting, I put full trust and full faith in Jeff Purvis and Paralegal Brittany Young, and they did exactly what they said they were gonna do. #NOTGUILTY. I cried to them tears of joy and hugs galore lol, will never forget Jeff and Brittany, the sweetest and the realest!!!!”- Alaisha H.
