Not Guilty!

I have nothing but superlatives to write about Ms. Malave. She started working on my son's homicide case just over a year ago, nearly four years after the case had been handled by a public defender and then a court appointed atty. Her professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail were instru...mental in proving my son's innocence and resulting in a "not guilty" verdict. She is also a warm, compassionate person and I don't know how I could have gone through the trial without her. My son and I will be forever grateful.
