Linda is a phenomenal and extremely effective criminal attorney. In my 17 years of experience, I have never met a criminal attorney with Linda's zeal, effectiveness, and responsiveness. She is a "sold out" advocate for her clients. She puts clients' rights ahead of her needs and will go to the mat for her clients. She is a force of nature.

Q. Please rate this lawyer on the following:

Legal Knowledge: Excellent

Linda is an extremely knowledgeable and experienced criminal attorney. She is especially adept and accomplished with OVI / DUI. However, she handles all criminal cases, including felonies, with the same passion and experience.

Linda has a knack of cutting through fluff to get to the issues of the case. Once identified, she then pursues those issues to resolution.

Communication Skills: Excellent

Linda is an excellent communicator and by far one of the most responsive attorneys I have ever met.

Linda takes her ethical obligations to her clients very seriously. The same cannot be said for many criminal attorneys who charge flat fees and then show up at court to cut a plea. Linda analyzes each case and treats every case with the respect and gravity it deserves.

Criminal law, OVI / DUI, drug offenses, felonies, misdemeanors, white collar defense
