Top Notch Lawyer who gets it done

Criminal defense lawyer | May 21

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Lenny Sharon may be the best criminal defense attorney in the state of Maine. Period. He has a passion for criminal defense that is unmatched by 99% of the bar and it shows. He's been fighting for the rights of the accused since the 1970's and he has a reputation as a hard nosed, tough trial attorney. Lenny is also one of the few attorneys that is willing and able to assist younger attorneys and mentor them in their careers. I've known Lenny since I was a brand new lawyer and I'm lucky enough to call Lenny my friend as well as my mentor. His legal skills are only surpassed by his generosity and compassion. If a family member or friend were ever in trouble with the law, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Attorney Lenny Sharon."
