I don’t know that there are enough clients with the means to pay to support that size of firm.

Hi - How do you find out who is a top criminal defense healthcare attorney in your state?

What is the best way to transition from insurance defense to criminal defense? I’ve been working in ID for about a year and have never been more bored in my life. I want to be challenged and do interesting work, but I’m not sure how to get started with no experience. Currently living in Chicago.

Welcome to the Criminal Defense Attorneys Bowl. We hope you will ask question, share your stories about things happening in your practices, current events, cutting edge cases, and practice tips.

Judge-shopping is frowned upon in most jurisdictions, if not actually prohibited in the local Bar rules or in legislation. So, how do you handle providing your client with necessary advice when you walk into court and see that Judge Hardass is presiding? A colleague of mine is currently facing a Bar discipline panel over warning off his client. What should you do in that situation?

I’m a new associate working for a well-known defense attorney in my state.

I am here to learn and advance my career but he can be pretty nasty.

I'm seriously tired of all the injustice done by cops. I've now caught several in blatant lies... On video or on record.
