“Attorney Mulligan is a thoughtful conscientious family man who works tirelessly and methodically on behalf of his clients and I would strongly recommend him to anybody who seeks a statutory equilibrium in their quest for justice. I owe this man my life…”
— Bryan, Criminal Defense Client
★★★★★
“My original attorney told me I’d be silly to pass on the 6 years that was offered to me, because a trial loss would result in 13 years of imprisonment; So I fired him, because the devil is a lie. I was appointed Ms. Wilkerson, and for the first time in months, I felt there was light at the end of the tunnel. Well after a lot of praying on behalf of my family and friends, and long hours put in by Ms. Wilkerson my case ended no jail time, only 4 years probation.”
— Rashad Carter, Defense Client
★★★★★
“Had 10 felonies that I was being charged with and not only did she get them all dropped but she did not take any crap and ended up getting them all dismissed before I was even out of my preliminary hearing. Hopefully never need her again but if I do I would come running back..”
— Scott, Criminal Defense Client

“The first time I met Forest Wilkerson at the offices of Wilkerson & Mulligan, her sheer energy and focus convinced me I had a good chance to do well with my case if I hired her. She and her Firm worked hard for me from the first day. The communication level was A+- which brought the stress level way down. The negotiation process with the DA took months. It included some plea deals, but with the information her Firm put together from in person interviews with those involved in the case, she felt there could be a better outcome. She made it happen. I was not surprised to hear the words, “Your case has been dismissed.” Thanks to Forest and her team at Wilkerson & Mulligan.”
— Thomas, Criminal Defense Client

“[Forest] was great right from the start. Explained to me all that was going on and what we needed to do to get the results that I wanted. Was always very responsive to my calls and emails. I finally felt that I had someone on my side who could help me. We got the decision we wanted and now are able to move on with our lives. This wouldn’t have happened with out Forest! Thank you..”
— Anonymous, Criminal Defense Client

“Mr. Mulligan was on his A GAME … We were able to get the case dropped, to both our surprise. Words can’t express how satisfied and thankful I am with the service and transparency of information for my case. As well as how professionally my case was handled.”
— Milo Knapp, Client
★★★★★
“Forest and Josh did an awesome job on my case. They went above and beyond what my previous lawyer had done and saved my career. They were always available by phone. They were courteous and paid attention to the details of my case before and after my case was resolved. They were and are nice and ethical individuals and I thank them for that.”
— Ashley Willis, Client
★★★★★
“We hired Josh to represent my mom and help with her legal problems. He was extremely helpful and managed to get my moms case dismissed! We are beyond thankful and would highly recommend him for anyone who is seeking legal help!!”
— R&G Squad, Client
★★★★★
“Not only did Forest work relentlessly on my case keeping me informed every step of the way, she represented me confidently and diligently knowing all aspects of all laws pertaining to the crimes in my case. Bringing those to the courtroom against a TEAM of 3 district attorneys with at least 1 other working against me behind the scenes along with a retired nonchalant Judge that held her back from allowing my witnesses to testify in my behalf and not allowing evidence proving my innocence to the Jurists because he was on a schedule to go on vacation, she also decimated a Sergeants testimony to the crime and tore the accuracy of the police report to shreds. This all resulted in a unanimous decision of 12 jurors to come back with a NOT GUILTY plea in my favor … Thank you Forest for helping me at the most dire time of my life.”

“Forest not only has substantial criminal law experience, but she is a fighter and that is what truly sets her apart. Forest practices for her clients… to help them, and to protect them.”
— Jen Guerrero, Defense Client
“Josh Mulligan is a sterling lawyer, a cut above. He cares about his clients, knows the law cold, and refuses to be intimidated by aggressive prosecutors. He talks softly and carries a big stick, especially at trial. Unlike some criminal defense lawyers Mulligan has been in the trenches for years, trying the most serious (and apparently hopeless) cases and pulling rabbits out of hats. If you or a family member are in a jam with the awful machinery of “criminal justice” you can hardly pick a better guide through the thicket than Mulligan. He is trustworthy, hard-working, whip-smart, and seasoned.”
— Hayden Smith, Criminal Defense Attorney
