ABCD
Absolute Best Criminal Defense
A Personal Note from Natalie...
Although I will not tell you to, "Show me the money," I have had a Jerry Maguire moment. I realized that many criminal defense attorneys have it all wrong. Rather than focusing on money, we need to focus on results. Results do not always come easy. Results take time and work. They are not always the most cost-effective way of running a defense firm. The practice of law, however, offers many other rewards that are not monetary.
I opened my own firm because I wanted to run things my way. I have seen what works and what does not. Many busy, criminal defense attorneys fail to treat their clients properly. They overload their calendars and do not devote the time necessary to give their clients the best service. I have seen many clients rotting in custody while a lawyer too busy to work on his case continues it for another month. I have seen good defenses disregarded because a lawyer does not have
time to execute them. I have seen lawyers work harder convincing their clients to take deals, than they work convincing the prosecutor to make a better offer. The sooner the client takes the plea, the less cost the lawyer invested earning their money. It is unfortunate, but true. Most private defense lawyers care much more about money than they care about their clients.
I promised myself from the time I started law school that I would never become another lawyer joke. I strive to keep this promise with every case. I am not greedy, and I work hard. I keep my prices reasonable and I produce high-quality work. There have been several instances when a self-proclaimed, "big time" lawyer told me there was nothing that could be done to save a particular client. This guy needed to take his punches and end it. Fortunately, I took the time necessary and nearly always lessened the blow. I have saved several clients time in custody by not folding before try I tried everything I thought might help.
I believe that a criminal defense attorney has a huge responsibility. That responsibility requires a full commitment to spend the time necessary in order to best defend a client's freedom or reputation. I started my practice to control my own case load. I guarantee you that if you trust me with your case, I will not overload my calendar and ignore you. Unlike other fields, I know I chose the area of law that offers no room for error. Money is replaceable, but time out of someone's life is not.
If you want a lawyer who will be focused on winning the best result for your case instead of saving time, you should call me. I promise you I will fight the best fight I can. I will deliver nothing less for you. I love practicing law. I love working hard to deliver courtroom performance. I know that I can be the best lawyer possible by devoting the time required to accomplish this. Therefore, you will get my full attention if I choose to defend you. Please call me at 818-286-3900 to discuss your criminal case.
