Everything was handled quickly
When I reached out to Mr. Buckmaster's firm, the way I was greeted, the involvement and care the firm took to my case was what set me to hire them. My case started around mid-March. Fast forward to today (24 April 2025), I am pleased to say: Everything was handled in such an expedited manner, that I had the idea this was going to be a long and tedious process of going back and forth with the DA and judge. When I got the phone call at 10 am on 23 April 2025, I genuinely was in shock at how quickly everything was absolved! Thank you so much to Mr. Buckmaster and the firm.

Highly Recommend Mr. Buckmaster
I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Buckmaster and his paralegal Laney. They were able to help me during one of my hardest moments, and I feel blessed to have found this law firm. I was able to meet with him the same day that I called, and they started working on my case immediately. While searching for other attorneys, Mr. Buckmaster’s approach was completely different than everyone else’s that I spoke to, and it was his confidence, reassurance, and experience as a prosecutor that sold me. After meeting with him in person, I felt like I was making the right choice by choosing him to represent me in my case. I would highly recommend Mr. Buckmaster and his legal team to anybody else searching for a strong attorney. I couldn’t have asked for a better resolution.

Went Above and Beyond for My Defense
Went above and beyond for my defense. From the moment I reached out to Buckmaster and Ellzey, I was met with professionalism, compassion, and unwavering support. Their team not only possessed an in-depth understanding of the law but also demonstrated genuine care for my well-being throughout the entire process. I would recommend them to anyone in need of attorneys.
Harrison Prim
A Very Good Experience
I ran into some legal trouble in May of 2021 and needed an attorney. While scanning through the ones in Daytona, I found Mr. Buckmaster and read some of his reviews and was impressed. After calling his office, he saw me within a few days of that call. Mr. Buckmaster was very thorough and explained everything to me in a way I could understand. It turned out to be a very good experience, and I would recommend his services to anyone who needed an attorney. Very professional staff and very friendly.

Amazing outcome on my trial
Such an amazing firm who made me feel warm and welcome and kept me in the loop through the whole case. Got me an amazing outcome on my trial. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for legal assistance.
Joseph Cross
Delivered Best Outcome
Cannot say enough about Laney and Mr. Buckmaster. Laney was always easy to reach and responded promptly. They truly got the best outcome possible for me. Before my consultation with Mr. Buckmaster I met with a different attorney who made all these promises of dismissal without even looking at anything, which is a red flag. Mr. Buckmaster was straight the whole time; he told me he could only guarantee one thing and that is he and his team would work diligently to try to get the outcome I wanted, and he delivered. While I hope I never need a lawyer again, I know who I will be choosing if such an occasion arises. Thank you, Mr. Buckmaster and team, well done sir.

Amazing lawyer!
Amazing lawyer! Got me off my charges that were total BS and made the terms of my probation easy. Communication was perfect and highly recommend!
Janiece Brown
Highly Recommend!
Mr. Buckmaster scheduled a consult with me instantly. He was very friendly, understanding, and informative. Laney always responded to my emails right away and answered all of my questions. They always called me as soon as they found out anything about my case, which I was very appreciative about. They worked hard and got my case dropped. I highly recommend! Very easy to talk to and you will have no doubt in your mind that the best work is being done to win your case! Thank you, Jeremy and Laney!

Excellent Work
Often when searching for someone who is going to fight for you in court against any alleged criminal activity, you will read reviews. It eases you knowing people have had great experiences before with this particular law firm. This is one of those reviews. I am very happy I chose this firm to represent me. I worked with Laney through most of the process, who was excellent, but had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Buckmaster in person for my hearing. He is a very pleasant man and is knowledgeable and friendly. You will feel as you are in good hands, someone who is going to fight for your very best outcome. His staff is very friendly, they are quick to respond to any emails or voicemails and are just overall great. He was even able to assist me in getting items that were taken by the police illegally back in my possession. I truly don’t believe I would have found better representation, and I thank every staff member of this firm for everything they have helped me with! Excellent work. Take care.

Jeremy was in my corner
I can highly recommend Jeremy Buckmaster to defend your case. His office was quick to respond to my initial call, and an appointment was set up right away. He is well-versed on the legal process and protocols. Fortunately, the criminal complaint made against me was frivolous and without merit. Even so, I was able to sleep much better knowing that Jeremy was in my corner.
Thank you, Jeremy!
Joe Newby
Grateful for His Approach and Demeanor
Mr. Buckmaster and team worked diligently and highly professionally on my criminal case. As someone with no former criminal record and caught myself in a very bad situation, Mr. Buckmaster was thorough in explaining legal jargon and procedures that were very alien to me. He was able to suggest my best courses of action and get my charges to a more manageable place so I could have a shot at a good future in society. I am very grateful for his approach, demeanor, and experience as an attorney that truly gave my future the benefit of the doubt!

If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. It is important to clearly state your desire for legal counsel and to refrain from answering questions without an attorney present. These rights are designed to protect you during legal proceedings.
When should I contact a defense attorney?
Contact a defense attorney as soon as you are aware of an investigation or charges against you. The earlier an attorney is involved, the better they can prepare your defense. Early involvement also helps protect your rights during investigations and hearings.
What should I bring to my first meeting?
Bring any relevant documents such as police reports, court notices, bail papers, and correspondence related to your case. It's also helpful to write down your recollection of events and any questions you have. This information aids us in understanding your case and designing a defense plan.
What is criminal defense?
Criminal defense is the legal representation provided to individuals or entities charged with criminal conduct. It involves protecting the rights of the accused, negotiating plea deals, and providing guidance through the legal system. Our goal is to ensure the best possible outcome for the client.
