It is important to know who you are working against as attorney because you are better able to prepare yourself and your client for the court proceedings. Moreover, it is important to have an understanding of each and every Judge that may be assigned to the case.

The proximity of one’s criminal defense lawyer to the courthouse and La Mesa area should be a significant factor when determining counsel because it is greatly beneficial to the client to have a close lawyer to receive the best services possible.
