Not important at all. Great deals and great outcomes are achieved by great defense lawyers. The quality of the lawyer far surpasses the importance of the location of the lawyer's office.

I offer free consultations.

Finding the positive aspects of my client's lives and being the voice that humanizes them in court and with the prosecutor and also uncovering and exposing police and prosecutor's misconduct and achieving acquittals in cases where the government abuses its power (which is in most cases by the way).

The only thing that I have time for is family and work. Being the best father I can be and being the best criminal defense lawyer possible.

Yes.
