Douglas Deane Rudolph

For the first time in my life, I found myself involved with criminal courts. It was a highly publicized situation. Attorney Rudolph took the time to guide me through the process and get the best result possible. He also took time to speak with my mom, wife and daughter. The way he handled the press w...as quite impressive.

Doug is an AMAZING attorney. I found myself in the lowest place of my life charged with 1 felony and 6 misdemeanors. The most serious of my charges was Assault with a Motor Vehicle in the Second Degree, which typically means three years in prison. I can happily say I spent 0 days in jail and was able... to walk free, all because of the amazing services that Doug provided. I interviewed basically all of the major attorneys in Connecticut, and Doug was the ONLY attorney who spoke with me as if there was hope in my situation. He was transparent with me in the seriousness of my charges, however, the reason I chose him was because he BELIEVED that there was a way out. My situation occurred in the beginning of COVID, when the courts were extremely backdated, and Doug stayed with me for three whole years throughout the entirety of the process. He made phone calls with me frequently, and broke down exactly what was going on in language that was easy for me to understand. He always made time to have phone conversations and answer all of my questions through text and by email. It was clear to me from the information that Doug provided that he is extremely experienced with tough cases, and has amazing working knowledge of the court system and legal processes. He prepped me for each of my court dates, step-by-step on what was going to happen, so that I always felt prepared. It was not easy going through the process, but Doug made it so much more tolerable, and gave me courage that I didn't know I had. The most memorable instance for me was my very last day of court when I was giving my statement, I began feeling emotional and started stumbling on my words. Doug gave me a pat on the back, told me that this is it, I'm doing a great job, and this will all be over soon. Those words gave me the strength to continue my statement and close things out peacefully. The way things were done and presented by myself and Doug in court, even the judge was moved by the case. Doug also helped me in my substance use recovery journey by introducing me to a non-profit organization which I am still active with today. It's things like this that can't be taught in Law school, but make Doug a great attorney and an overall great human. He truly believed in me, and vouched for me throughout the entire time my court case lasted. If you have found yourself in a legal situation, THERE IS A WAY through it with an amazing attorney like Doug. If I had chosen anyone else, I know my outcome would have been so much different, and my life would not have gone in such a positive direction. I will forever be grateful for everything that Doug has done for me. THANK YOU!!!

In the summer of 2019, I was involved in a criminal case that made the news. As this was my first serious involvement with the law, I was overwhelmed and at a loss navigating the justice system. After meeting with several attorneys, Doug was the only one that stood out from the lot. From our first FR...EE consult appointment, Doug offered far more advice and guidance than I would have ever anticipated. He showed genuine interest and a desire to help ease the burden of facing criminal charges. Before officially signing him on to being my defense attorney, Doug made a point to sit with me and go over the contract with a fine toothed comb, making sure to explain things in terms the average person would understand. No matter how many questions I asked (even if some of them were repeated several times), Doug was patient, cordial, and very informative. He was reliably responsive to calls, texts, and emergencies. Throughout all of the preceedings, I always felt in as much control as possible. He always made sure to give me all of my options and explained them in thorough detail and never once did I feel strong-armed into any decision proving his genuine interest for the well-being of his clients as he never cut corners. Each day before every hearing, he would make a point to call me and go over the details so I could walk into the courtroom with confidence. Doug is well-spoken, experienced, and adamantly dedicated to his career- his help was indispensable. My case was resolved in a surprisingly favorable manner and my life can finally go back to normal. While I never anticipate being in this type of situation again, if the situation were to arise, I would have Doug represent me again with no hesitation!
