I was sent to federal prison in August of 2022 on a serious drug conviction. I was being denied my FSA credits so my fiancee looked into lawyers to help, and man, did he find the absolute best. Mrs. Elizabeth's last name says it all. While in the process of trying to look into FSA credits, my mom passed away who was watching my 11 year old son. As soon as Mrs. Best found out about it, she quickly decided to file for compassionate release. We were told that now it was a waiting game for the judge’s answer. Well, because of their hard work, the judge ordered a hearing for a date in February which was very rare. Since day one her team has given us hope when we thought there wasn't any. So if you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you, please call Mrs. Elizabeth Best’s team.

I would like to say that so far this has been the best interaction with an attorney’s office. The communication is seamless and there is always someone available to answer questions when they arise. The entire process was explained thoroughly up front. At times I have thought that the fees may have been on the expensive side however as a business owner myself I solely believe you get what you pay for. Mrs. Franklin-Best has a ton of experience and knowledge and she is the best attorney for this matter.

Elizabeth went to see my son in prison and met with me as well. She is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her services.

Elizabeth and her staff are absolutely the best in the business, I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for help with a conviction.

Very impressed first time I met Elizabeth Best, upon arrival of my first visit she already had my son on the phone going over case. She even took the time to drive and see my son at the facility face to face. I love the case portal to keep up with updates.

In 2008, I was convicted of homicide by child abuse and sentenced to 35 years in prison. My case ended up in the appellate defense office. I felt so hopeless at that time. It was only 2008, and my release date wasn’t until 2039.

Mrs. Best kept in constant contact with me through letters and was very encouraging when I spoke with her on the phone while in prison at Camille Griffin Graham in South Carolina…

I have been free since 2013. If it wasn’t for her and her hard work there’s no way I would be out of prison right now. The Court finally reversed my conviction in 2013…

I repeat the supreme Court let me go!!!! I thank God for her if you’re looking for someone that’s truly going to fight for you, I would highly recommend Mrs. Best you will not be disappointed if you don’t believe this, please look my name up I’m in the wrongfully convicted database.

God used her to help me, and I am forever grateful! Mrs. Best, thank you!!!!! You will be forever in my heart I’ll never forget you!
