Fearless

Isabel is a FEARLESS attorney. She does not allow the date to intimidate her not one bit. It’s more of her intimidating them. She has worked With my entire family.When I was in drug court she helped me so muchJust as she’s helping her clients now. 90% a time is she say somethings going to happen you ...can rest of sure that’s what’s going to happen. Isabell is about her word and her work she knows her books like there’s no tomorrow. She’s one of the best lawyers there is. The new law firm that she has now with Steve Mercer they work wonderful together. She was a Wonderful public defender and she’s a wonderful person and a lawyer I would recommend her to anybody and everybody she has to go to lawyer. Not only is she compassionate about her job and what she does she’s very caring kind and loving. I think her a lot. I talk to her very frequent Just to check in and let her know how I’m doing. But once again I would recommend her 100 out of 10. Thanks Isabel for all you done for me and my family.

My Criminal Defense Lawyer

Other than her vast knowledge in and around the courtroom, what made Isabelle so special was the time and attention she dedicated to my case. She and her staff are always available to talk. Dealing with criminal charges brought me enough anxiety but Isabelle was always there to explain everything to ...me, and just treated me like a real person. She is very authentic, intelligent, too the point and savvy. To make a long story short, I was charged with 9 counts - 5 being felonies- and I walked away with one misdemeanor which she helped make disappear after a little bit of time and after doing my part. Since I became involved in the occupation I am in now, I get to work with her and see how she treats her clients. When any of my clients need any help- I think of her first. Observing the way she treats other clients of hers just reiterates what I already knew!

The BEST Attorney!!!

Isabelle stood up for my son who was bullied by the police. He received charges relating to a minor amount of marijuana and resisting arrest and assault on a police officer. He was found not guilty on all but one charge and on that one he received probation before judgment. She is now getting my s...on's charges expunged. I am a paralegal and I can honestly say that she is by far the most caring, competent, brilliant lawyer that I have ever met. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a criminal attorney. I wish all lawyers were as amazing as her!

A True Advocate

Isabelle stands out from other criminal defense lawyers. With her represention on my case, I got all my felony drug charges dropped to a single misedemenor which will eventually be expunged entirely. If you were charged with anything drug related, and are reading this, just know that Isabelle’s reput...ation with the States attorneys and judges will go a long way!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Isabel is without exception one of the best attorneys with whom I have collaborated. She is outstanding in every aspect of what makes her a good lawyer -- and co-counsel: fierce dedication, intuitively resourceful, loyal to the end -- and quite likeable (by a jury!!) I have actually worked many cases with her and would highly recommend her as an attorney. Her heart is in the right place; she is quick on her feet; and if she ever "goes down," it is only after a huge fight on behalf of her client!!"

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Isabelle is not only a great attorney, but a great mentor as well. I have had the opportunity to watch her fight tirelessly for her clients time and time again, and have witnessed first hand the dedication, passion, and hard work she puts into every case she receives. While some attorneys may back down when the odds are stacked against their client, Isabelle will never stop fighting for her's. Isabelle's clients are lucky to have her on their team and I consider myself lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from her so early in my career."
