What Does It Mean to be a Criminal Law Specialist?

I am not just a criminal defense attorney, I am a criminal law specialist. This is a title that is bestowed upon a small number of attorneys by the State Bar of California. It’s not just an honorary degree. It means something.

To become a criminal law specialist in the state of California, you have to have handled so many criminal defense cases; you have to have had so many jury trials; and you have to have handled so many appellate cases.

This is just to qualify to take the exam that shows that you have specialized knowledge in criminal law. I was able to show I have the required experience and I passed the exam on my first try.

You also have to have earned favorable reviews from judges and your legal peers, as well as having a record of successful results.

So when you hire me, you’re truly getting one of the best of the best. In fact, fewer than one in 400 attorneys in the state of California have been certified as criminal law specialists.

When you’re facing serious criminal charges, you absolutely need the best attorney you can find, because the consequences of having an inexperienced attorney, or even an attorney who just doesn’t try hard enough, can be devastating. Who you choose to represent you matters.
