"Elizabeth Franklin-Best P.C. is an outstanding attorney. She was honest and direct. She did not over-promise or confuse us. She listened and explained the options, developed a strategy, and followed it through. Elizabeth was thorough and did the legwork necessary to get my uncle out of prison after serving 19 years of a 480-month sentence. She kept us informed of the progress, and the outcome was amazing! The motion was granted several weeks later. Thank you, Elizabeth Franklin, you are the best!"

"I would like to say that, so far, this has been the best interaction I’ve ever had with an attorney’s office. Communication is seamless, and someone is always available to answer questions when they arise. The entire process was explained thoroughly upfront. At times, I thought the fees might be expensive; however, as a business owner, I believe you get what you pay for. Mrs. Franklin-Best has a ton of experience and knowledge and is the best attorney for this matter."
- Tameisha T.
"I was sent to federal prison in August 2022 on a serious drug conviction. I was being denied my FSA credits, so my fiancé looked into lawyers to help and found the absolute best. Mrs. Elizabeth’s last name says it all.
During the process of looking into my FSA credits, my mom—who was caring for my 11-year-old son—passed away. As soon as Mrs. Best learned about it, she quickly filed for compassionate release. We were told it would be a waiting game, but because of her team’s hard work, the judge ordered a hearing for February, which is very rare.
Since day one, her team has given us hope, even when we thought there wasn’t any. If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight for you at a very reasonable cost, please call Mrs. Elizabeth Best’s team."

"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. To be quite honest, I felt hopeless at that time. Can you imagine a 2008 conviction with a 2039 release date?
Long story short, Mrs. Best was originally assigned to my case. She completed my briefs and kept in constant contact with me, sending letters regularly. She was very encouraging whenever I spoke with her on the phone while I was incarcerated at Camille Griffin Graham in South Carolina.
Well, let me tell you something: I have been free since 2013 due to her excellent work. I consider Mrs. Best my angel. If it weren’t for her and her hard work, there is no way I would be out of prison right now. The Supreme 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 who will fight for you, I 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 forever be in my heart, and I’ll never forget you."
