- Criminal DefenseProfessional, knowledgeable, and aggressive representation with the highest degree of integrity would best describe Haley. When your personal freedom, reputation and livelihood are at risk, I would, without hesitation, recommend hiring Haley Prevatt as your attorney. She has, and continues, to go above and beyond any expectation I could have imagined with my court case. If you have been accused of any crime, the most valuable asset you have is an agressive, committed, and diligent criminal defense attorney, and Haley Prevatt IS that attorney.
- DUI/DWIWe do not live in Fayette County, but recently found ourselves in dire need of good representation there, AND very quickly. Our twenty-something son, who is a Dean’s List college kid about to graduate, made a huge mistake in judgment one night. After drinking too much at a bar with a buddy, got into the car and drove. He had always been extremely aware of the dangers involved with drinking and driving and always made good decisions if he felt he had more than the minimum. His trip was cut short because he hit two cars parked in a turning lane on Man-O-War Blvd (they were changing a tire) at 2:30 a.m. totaling the car he drove and one of the other cars. A pedestrian standing nearby was also involved in the accident. There were passengers in the other totalled car. He was arrested for Aggravated DUI because he refused the breathalizer. This was on a Monday and his arraignment was set for 8 days later. My son is truly a good person who could have been up the proverbial creek, and my wife and I were beside ourselves with worry. We needed a good Lexington attorney. Haley Prevatt was referred to us through a local attorney friend. Within an hour of leaving a message seeking a consult and representation from her, she returned my call. She took his case, and met with him the very next day. A case which could involve jail time, the maximum license suspension and possibly a trial resulted in none of those. This was thanks to Haley and her knowledge of the system. In a very short amount of time she negotiated the best of all possible outcomes and turned what could have been a family-devastating event into a learning experience our son will never forget. I will continue to sing your praises, Haley Prevatt!
- Wrongful Death
- BurglaryHaley Prevatt is the best person I know! Not only is she a fantastic attorney but she is a wonderful friend. A little over a year ago I found myself in a situation I could never have seen coming. I was charged with Burglary 2nd degree, a class C felony, and was facing 5 to 10 years behind bars. I am your average everyday mother, grandmother, working class citizen and was totally taken off guard by my circumstances. In short I had been having health problems and ended up living with a woman in Lexington to watch over her children while she was out in the evening. Long story, it didn’t turn out to be what she had promised and I decided to cut my losses. I packed up my belongings while she was gone and went to live with a friend. A few months later my daughter informed me that a detective from Lexington was looking for me. I immediately called him and subsequently turned myself in, why not, I hadn’t done anything wrong. What an education I received over the next year. I spend four days and nights in jail before being bailed out. I was assigned a public defender but didn’t speak or meet her until my first court appearance. After that I knew if this person represented me I would spend 10 years in jail for something I didn’t do. I got online and googled felony attorneys in Lexington, one page led to another and I finally came upon the face of the woman who would be my saving grace. I feel God led me to Haley’s website because I have never been able to find it by looking for it in the same manner. It was a long road but Haley was wonderful. I know for certain that if I had not retained Haley as my attorney I would be sitting in prison this very moment. She knew the right questions to ask and where to look for the information we needed. Haley got the case dismissed and the charges expunged from my record! I have to say that Haley Prevatt is the single most important person who has ever been brought into my life. Without her, my life would be over!!! She is a huge part of my life and we remain friends. I truly love Haley, how many people can say that about their attorney? I am blessed and honored to recommend Haley Prevatt to any person in need of an attorney. She will fight for you regardless of your situation. She has great knowledge of the law, great intuition and faith in God which is an amazing combination and hard to find in an attorney. I thank God every day for sending this rare and wonderful woman into my life!!!!!!!
- MisdemeanorsAlso while in law school, Haley completed an internship with the Fayette Commonwealth Attorney’s Office. She argued in felony court proceedings and won. Although she is no longer practicing criminal law, this familiarity with the prosecutorial side of criminal law benefited her clients as she defended them in private practice against misdemeanor and felony charges.
- Drug CrimesI am writing this testimony in regards to Attorney Haley Prevatt. I was previously falsely accused and charged with three counts of drug trafficking while visiting Kentucky. I originally came to Kentucky to site-see and go shopping as I love to do. I ended up getting arrested for being in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people. I was petrified, distraught, and did not know who to turn to for help and guidance. I never been arrested before and I was facing up to nine years. I was very confused about the Commonwealth laws there and I did not know anyone in Kentucky, let alone an attorney that I could trust with my life. A family friend from back home highly recommended Attorney Haley Prevatt from a previous case she beat for him. I took a chance on Haley, going in blind-folded not knowing how this was all going to turn out. She could tell I was uneasy about the whole situation, and the first thing she did was tell me that she believed me and that she was going to do her very best to get me off, I just needed to trust her. I took a deep breathe and did just that. Attorney Prevatt kept her word and my case ended up getting dismissed after all her hard work. I would recommend Haley Prevatt to anyone. She is a very dedicated attorney that will go to bat for you, fight your battles with her very best, and come out WINNING.

- Personal Injury"I am honored to have had the opportunity to meet and work with Haley Prevatt, regarding an automobile accident that involved my sister which occurred on August 12th, 2015. As a result of this accident, two people lost their lives who were riding in the same vehicle with my sister. Ms. Prevatt took the case with vigor and energy I have not seen in an attorney in many years. She was on top of each and every issue and never wavered in her dedication and determination to see that my sister received the utmost from the insurance carrier in this case. The settlement was just and fair and we owe Ms. Prevatt our sincere appreciation for her efforts and relentless pursuit of justice for my sister. I strongly recommend Ms. Prevatt and encourage anyone seeking an attorney to represent them in a personal injury case, to contact Ms. Prevatt. You will not be discouraged, or sorry for the time you spend listening to her! Thank you Haley for all you have accomplished for my sister. Her life has been made better because of your relentless pursuit of truth and integrity. May God continue to Bless your work."
