Elizabeth Rogers's Lawyer Endorsements
"Liz Rogers is the best criminal defense attorney in Alpine. If I were charged with a crime, Liz Rogers would be the first person I called. I worked with her as an assistant Federal Public Defender before she began her private practice. She is an excellent mentor to less-experienced lawyers and genuinely cares about all of her clients. She is a fierce advocate."
"Liz Rogers is the leading criminal defense attorney in the West Texas area. A person charged with a crime cannot do better than to contact Liz immediately. She genuinely cares about all of her clients and that feeling comes through both in her interactions with her clients and her advocacy for them in the courtroom. She follows the highest ethical standards and is a mentor that many less-experienced attorneys in the community rely on for advice. You will not be disappointed if you choose Liz to represent you."
"Ms. Rogers is the best Federal Criminal Defense attorney in the area and possibly in Texas. As a clerk for her, and now as I work with her I learn more and more each day. She is incredibly experienced, caring, and passionate about her clients. If you are lucky enough to become a client of hers, you will find no lawyer will work harder for you. I cannot recommend Liz more highly, she is an incredible mentor, advisor and advocate."
"Liz is a wonderful attorney. She's ebullient, caring, and tough. Any defendant would be lucky to have her as their counsel."
