Responsive, thorough & solid attorney. Got case dismissed.

Austin has done a phenomenal job on our case, which involved a criminal matter in 2 different court houses. ***He got us the best possible outcome..a complete dismissal!! ***We are so thankful!*** It was very draining for us but knowing he was completely on top of all aspects of the case gave us a...s much peace of mind as is possible in such circumstances. Although these legal matters take along time to get resolved, he was able to make some headway in our case early on that gave me hope for the rest of the court proceedings. He is very responsive, thorough & also very easy to be around. Whatever the outcome was to be, I knew right away that we had made the right choice in hiring Austin. Thank you so much for everything Austin!

Trustworthy, honest, and down to earth lawyer

Mr. Tzeng was very knowledgeable not only about handling my case but was also very familiar with the people working in the court. He had worked with all the judges and knew what to expect from them. Representing me in a harassment prevention case, he knew exactly what to say and what information he ...needed from me to get the best possible outcome. He was honest about setting expectations and overall had a very pleasant down to earth manner. I felt like he could relate to my situation which eased my mind and took off a lot of stress. I would definitely recommend Mr. Tzeng who specializes in criminal defense.

Austin Clifford Tzeng found to be INNEFECTIVE in Cambridge District Court

Austin Tzeng represented me in a criminal defense matter in the Cambridge District Court. During his representation, I underwent an evaluation by the Court's Clinical Psychologist, who found that I was not competent to stand trial, and who recommended further evaluation to determine competency. Thi...s evaluation and report was suppressed by the judge, who ordered the case to trial. Austin Tzeng was aware of the interview, evaluation, report, and published recommendation that a trial should NOT be held, pending resolution of the question of doubt concerning my so-called competence. Attorney Tzeng either made no effort to obtain the published and completed report during the period of his connection with the case; nor did he provide continuity and sufficient background concerning this issue to successor counsel. As a result of the wrongfulness of the trial and its constitutional defects, Trial Judge made a finding of ineffective assistance of counsel and has remanded the case back to the Court for re-trial.
