I enjoy being a lawyer and helping my client achieve the best possible result.Administrative proceedings are complicated and your case is decided before you know what happened.What can be done to help after the trial was not successful?Arson, Murder, Conspiracy, Federal Drug and Money Laundering, Gambling or Internet Pornography.May I help you recover compensation for your injury?

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I have worked with John on several family law related matters. I have found him to work towards a solution that benefits the family. He does not unnecessarily delay matters while still advocating for his client. However, I have also witnessed his work in criminal law matters and he truly shines in this area. I have referred clients to him, knowing that he will work diligently and be a fantastic advocate.

Attorney Moeller's advice is spot on; as shown by the answers he has posted to questions on criminal defense law, he takes the time to answer questions in a common sense manner and plainly addresses legal issues. As a prosecutor, I have seen few criminal defense attorneys that have this ability.
