WHY HIRING LOUIS AS YOUR ATTORNEY IS DIFFERENT

How Louis differentiates his practice from others is he will provide you with personalized attention. When you hire Louis, you know that your case will not be passed off to a new attorney or junior associate and he will be defending you until the end.  He will help you from the initial interview meeting until the case is successfully resolved in the most favorable manner for you. Louis works frequently with skilled and experienced private investigators, accident re-constructionists, forensic psychologists and psychiatrists, and other experts who may be necessary for building a successful defense strategy in your case.

Everything Louis does is centered around achieving a dismissal or a not-guilty result in your case, so that you can get through life without having a criminal record.

Knowing the local prosecutor is critically important and helps tremendously in getting the charges dismissed. Since Louis has been a public defender in Bergen County for many years, there is a high likelihood that he has worked alongside the prosecutor in recent cases and therefore has the ability to discuss your case at a level that many other Bergen County attorneys cannot.
