It depends where you are geographically and what your budget is. Mark Rudy is well known/ respected in the Bay Area but is on the pricier side. In the Central Valley we use Judge Howard Broadman, he’s terse to some, but very effective and reasonably priced. In LA we use Jeff Krivis who is effective and decently priced. I also like Hon. Jeffrey Winikow, kinda quirky but gets the deal done and is reasonable for the area. I’m a defense attorney for what it’s worth.

Krivis is solid. So is Lisa Krakow and Henry Bongiovi.

Todd Smith, Jeff Krivis, Ann Kotlarski.

Krivis comes up a lot for a reason, he's good and have had good experiences working with him

Another vote for Krivis here. In terms of experience and knowledge, he's the best option. How about you, OP?

I don’t mind Chris Barnes, and I love Cecily Bond but she’s never available

Eve Wagner, Krivis
