Anita encouraged our son to wait for full discovery in a DUI / license suspension case for refusal of chemical testing. She was professional and diligent in helping him, explaining all options and clearly had his best interest at heart. Multiple court appearances until all information was in did not... derail her. I am happy to say that she was successful in both the criminal DUI and the PennDOT suspension. We are thankful that Anita cares for her clients and doesn't just try to take the deal.

AWESOME!!

Anita handled my sons case. She was great! She listens, she cares and not like other Public Defenders. I hear she is now in private practice! She really does do a great job. She looks into the truth when you are being accused of doing something wrong. Many others really didn't care and would give you... the bare minimum as a defense, she is what people need and want in an attorney. You will not just be a number or dollar signs!! After you meet with her you will clearly see she is the right attorney for the job. I love attorneys that do not make deals or cut corners. If you are innocent then why take a deal?!! Do not let police, DA's scare you, give her a call!!!!

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
