Judith Ann Samson

Judith lied regarding my plea bargain and even submitted it to the courts without the DA agreeing or me being advised of my rights. When confronted she said she assumed the DA agreed. Not only did I receive ineffective counsel but I was lied to by own lawyer. I am reporting her to Minnesota Professio...nal Board of Responsibility. She shouldn’t be allowed to practice law in the State of MN if she is lying to her own clients. I also had to retain new counsel and she only offered to refund a little bit of the money we paid. I had to start all over with my new lawyer. Judy never did anything to build a defense for me. She never went over my discovery in detail with me. When I asked her to go over my criminal history points and my sentencing range she said that it doesn’t matter. Then she only sent me over 3 out of 4 pages of the document I requested. She did as much as push paper for me. I’m extremely disappointed in the way she treated me and treated my case as a lawyer who is paid for. Do not recommend and highly encourage to stay away! I have all the documentation of even further grievances of ineffective counsel and we will be getting our money back.

I was a little skeptical when Judith said she could get me a favorable outcome for my first time theft charge for less money and in less time than the other lawyers I was in contact with but boy was I glad I went with her. Judith was upfront and called out the bull the other lawyers were pitching to ...get more money from me. This was probably partly due to COVID but everything was done over phone or text but that made it pretty convenient for me to continue with my normal everyday life. She explained things clearly, settled my case outside of the courts, and did so within 30 days of first contacting her. I was able to make a deal and pay a minimal fine to get my charge dropped. I am so glad I chose Judith to represent me otherwise I’d still be worrying about this case/charge affecting my life and possibly going onto my record. Thank you Judith.

Judy is one of a kind. She knows what she does and you can tell she's experienced and knowledgeable the moment you speak to her. I was worried that two misdeamnors would go on my clean record, I'd pay a high fine and end up serving some time in jail for a mistake I made when I was a minor. She assure...d me that that will not happen and made the whole process easy for someone as worried as me. I had a Public Attorney before and they didn't weren't help at all in helping me achieve the goals I've set for my situation. Judy was able to assess and handle my case in a timely manner when we were on a time crunch to appear for jury trial. Her fees are affordable and there was no hidden costs whatsoever. I'm glad I made the right choice in picking her. I would recommend Judy to anyone!

Mrs. Samson was just an amazing lawyer. My case was about "violation on an order for protection". I was scared about it and as soon as I talked to Mrs. Samson I felt relieved. She was very polite and professional. She talked to me straight to the point about the possible outcomes and I was confident ...with that. She knew what she was doing and got the job done. Her fees were affordable to me and there was no extra or hidden fees after so. She always answered all my questions with patience and straight to the point, very ethical lawyer and smart. I 300% recommend Mrs. Samson for your case. God bless her!

I contacted Judith Samson to represent me on my misdemeanor offense for theft/shoplifting. This was the first time that I have ever been charged and I had no idea what to do. I had felt overwhelmed and anxious about my court appearance because I do not know anything about the legal system (besides Go...ogle). When I first consulted with Judith she was very attentive and professional -- she listened to my side of the story and asked questions that were relevant to my case. The appointment overall was quick and efficient. I was able to reach Judith directly on her cellphone whenever I had any questions and she also contacted me right away whenever there were any changes in my court appearance. My case ended on a good note because I was able to join a diversion program and this will put my record back to a clean start. I felt assured with Judith's representation because of her extensive knowledge in law. Her professionalism and confidence are just a few of her great qualities. I was also worried that hiring an attorney was going to cost me a fortune but Judith was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend her to anyone as she is an excellent lawyer.
