Amy Beaton was my lawyer for two felony cases. She is a wonderful lady. She is so intelligent, genuinely cares for her clients, and works tirelessly to negotiate the best resolutions. I was facing a high prison sentence for two burglaries that I committed while struggling with a substance use disorder. The prosecutor was not willing to come down on her offer ,so Amy and I decided to plead “naked” and argue sentencing to the judge. Amy and her investigator invested a lot of time obtaining records and compiling a social history. Amy drafted a persuasive sentencing memo and convinced the judge to consider a lower sentence due to my long-standing history of childhood trauma, mental illness and substance use disorder. The Judge sentenced me to a much lower sentence and I was very happy for what received. I trusted Amy Beaton with my life. She helped me change my life by getting me this sentence. I have now been out of prison for 5 years. During this time, I have managed my mental health, stayed in recovery, got married, had a baby girl and started my own cleaning business. Even after I was released from prison, Amy has remained a constant support in my life. Without Amy’s help, I probably would have lost hope and gone back to my old ways, like doing drugs and committing crimes. Thank you, Amy, for always having my back. It was a pleasure working with you. I would recommend Amy Beaton to anyone that needs representation ---she fights for her clients’ best interests and truly cares for us all.
