Frank Himel represented me in an armed habitual case June 2018-Feb 2020. I was wrongfully accused, searched and seized and then held without bond. Within a week Frank lifted the no bond and I was allowed to post bond and fight this case in the outside world with my family. I continued working my job and supporting my family while Frank and I fought a tough fight. Frank was always supportive, reliable, and honest about possibilities and obstacles that could be ahead of us. I appreciated that. I felt hopeless sometimes, but as the court dates passed, watching Frank work the courtroom gave me confidence. I felt relieved like I could sit back and let him do his job. At the end of court I didn’t have many questions. That speaks volumes because I’m a man of many words. In the end we won on a motion and a heavy weight was lifted off of my shoulders. Thanks to Frank I was a free man and not only did he win the case he went above and beyond to vacate a prior case on my background. Frank Himel is an amazing attorney. He’s fought for me in ways no one has ever and I’m forever grateful. I’m a new man now. My past is my past and I’m life and making better choices.

Wow, I can write a book. Frank is the truth, very honest about the situation you in. Frank represented me 2004. This guy is sharp and know law. His resume speaks for its self. He's all about what's best for clients. He never LIE to you just to get funds, hey he will tell you I strongly think WE can win or hey WE can't but always comes with what's best. Now 16yrs laters he has become even more sharper than ever. I'm blessed to have him as a friend.

Attorney Frank Himel has been my criminal defense attorney for about 20 years now. Mr.Himel has never steered me wrong when it comes to the judicial system, (both state and federal). Not only has Mr.Himel represented myself, but I’ve referred him to several family members and friends, all of whom were pleased with the services he provided to them. Attorney Frank Himel in my personal opinion is definitely one of the top 5 attorney’s in the midwestern region of the United States.
