Grateful defendent

I'm a 60 yr old retired construction worker. I had never been in trouble before. I met Ms Sopher while waiting at central booking to see a judge. Ms Sopher listened to me, and explained all the possible options put in front of me. She was EXTREMELY ACCESIBLE and returned my family's calls , a...nd always updated me whenever new events arose. I've never written a review , but ii HONESTLY believe , that if you are assigned Ms Sopher as your public defender , your case is already going in a positive direction. She was a competent, serious lawyer, but had a human side , and gave me a sense that she truly cared about me and the case before me. I give Counselor Sopher, 5 stars ,not only because my case ended with positive results, but mostly because I've felt like I had a lawyer that actually cared.. I'm so truly grateful to have had Ms Sopher to represent me.
