Paul took my case after an arrest during a protest in the summer of 2017 and I'm grateful for his representation. He helped me strategize and gave me clear instructions on how to defend myself. After every hearing he would check in with me and let me know next steps, what the court processes would be like, and what to expect. Never having been in this situation before I was glad to have Paul on my side.

Paul Hetznecker represented me in a case stemming from the 200 RNC. I was a legal observer who was beaten and arrested while trying to photograph the police who were beating a woman for walking down the sidewalk. I did a lot of work on my case and found witnesses who saw what happened. Paul never returned any of my phone calls and never spoke with any of my witnesses- which he used as an excuse not to call them, even though I had got them to come to court. After being found guilty in my first trial, I appealed it to Common Pleas. Paul continued to do NO WORK on my case. When we went to trial, he actually lied to me about the plea offer-stating that my codefendant wouldn't get her plea offer if I refused mine and went to trial. This was the only reason I didn't take it to a jury, but I found out later from codefendant's attorney that the prosecutor never said that and that Paul lied to avoid a jury trial. He had a winning case, but he just completely sabotaged my defense.

Paul represented me in 1994-95. I was 21 and charged with a serious crime and was looking at spending 40-80 years in prison. Paul helped me to receive the disposition necessary in order for me to transform my life. I ended up receiving 5 years probation with a stipulation for MH therapy. The years of help received enabled me to recover from years of abuse at the hands of the father of my children which led to my actions that resulted in my arrest. Since that time, I successfully regained custody of my children and transformed all our lives for the better, something I would never have been able to accomplish had I been incarcerated. I owe a great debt of gratitude to Paul for not only his great legal expertise but his compassion and care for his clients.
