Warren and Frank saved my life!

Warren Geller and Frank Cofer saved my life. I was falsely accused with seven category A felonies. Kidnapping, Sexual Assault with substantial bodily harm, 2x Sexual Assault, 3x Battery with intent to Sexual Assault. Each of these seven charges carries a life sentence. My bail was $500,000(Not a ty...po). Not being able to bail out, I was stuck in jail for almost 2 months. During that time, Warren visited me often, even visited me on a Sunday (Not many lawyers will do that, if any). After a few court appearances, Warren was able to lower my bail from half a million to $1,000 (Not a typo) so I was finally able to bail out. While waiting for trial, Warren communicated and kept me up to date on exactly what's going on. I would have questions, and Warren would take the time to answer them in great details. Throughout the entire 2-week trial Warren and Frank prepared, executed and answered any questions I may have. In the court room, Warren and Frank are excellent litigators. They communicated clearly to the jurors on what really happened. In the end, I was NOT GUILTY on all seven counts after the jurors deliberated for less than an hour. After the verdict was read; me, Frank and Warren all broke down in tears. That just shows me that they truly care about their clients. All in all, Warren and Frank are two of the best in the business. Along with their office assistant April Burt who's very sweet and professional. I would recommend anyone in Vegas charged with a crime to go with Warren and Frank. Cofer & Geller are your best defense when accused of a crime.

Knowledgeable and Personable Attorney

I was very impressed with Warren's knowledge and professional demeanor. Upon my arrest he came after hours to meet with me to begin discussing the case. He was always available, let me know what was happening and got my case dismissed.

he saved my life!

This summer I made some bad decisions that could have ruined my life. I went from having a clean record to having 3 felonies! For a couple of months I had depression because I thought I'd be stuck working a minimum-wage job for the rest of my life because of my dirty record... However, Warrent told m...e there's a big chance he could dismiss my case and expunge my record. I thought he was just saying that to make me feel better but he actually did get my case dismissed! I was charged with multiple felonies and got no probation or anything. Warren is an amazing lawyer who always calls back when you call him. The people that work at his office too! I will definitely keep his number in case anything ever happens again, I know he'll get me out of trouble.

Criminal case resolution

I was having criminal case filed in Las Vegas Casino about sex abuse with Cigar lady service girl. I had one lawyer before him but he was total sucker. He was not sincere about attending court but behind money. But one of my friend referred me from Texas that this is best for criminal cases. Geller c...ame out be excellent sincere and very clear about what he will favor for me. The meeting of him was after I lost my flight and then in Bus we went to his office. Briefing was very honest and I explained him that how innocent involvement happened. He had assure all options and gave in writing . Amazing thing is no need to go to court date and questions through E-mail. I definitely recommend his services to every one. Of curse , there is scandal of casino girls and hooker but if you are trapped ; appoint Mr Geller and you are peace.

One of the best criminal defense lawyers in Nevada

Warren Geller obtained the best possible outcome for me: A not guilty verdict at trial. Unarguably, Mr. Geller is one of the best criminal defense attorneys in Nevada. His preparation, legal knowledge, conduct before the bench, professionalism, and client management skills are excellent. I lau...d Mr. Geller for understanding what the case represented to me and not what it was: a rather dubious claim of battery in the heat of an athletic contest that resulted in no injury. Unfortunately for me, a meaningful federal career and a high level security clearance combined with a newly acquired reputation for pursuit of the libertine meant that I would face uncomfortable employment repercussions should the result of this legal debacle be anything other than not guilty. The first attorney I interviewed and briefly retained was lazy, incompetent, and non-responsive; I later learned he was in the midst of disbarment proceedings. The second attorney I met with was a well-connected big named older gentleman. While he correctly assessed the facts of the case I feared that his dismissive nature and jocular banter about the event would lead to a flat, inattentive, and uninspired defense effort. This is something I could ill afford. However, upon meeting Mr. Geller I was comfortable that he understood the gravity of my predicament and would work diligently throughout litigation. Prior to trial Mr. Geller thoughtfully and thoroughly responded to my multiple queries. The day of trial he confidently prepared for my time in the dock. At trial, Mr. Geller and his Co-counsel Mr. Ortiz proved to be effective, energetic, and agile advocates. They understood the law, asked questions which supported our narrative, and aggressively questioned the state’s witnesses with an affable and disarming demeanor. Throughout the trail Mr. Geller outmaneuvered and out-lawyered the prosecutor. While the State had an uphill battle to convict on the evidence, the execution of the defense was still required. At one point, a grandfatherly and benign appearing witness began a series of spontaneous utterances which bore no relation to the truth as a simple battery became intent to commit murder in this witnesses’ mind. Mr. Geller skillfully batted away this curveball. In the end, Mr. Geller “won” as the law and the facts dictated I should. I urge anyone facing the wrath of the criminal justice system in Nevada where freedom, reputation, livelihood is at stake to retain Mr. Geller. You will be in good hands with this awesome lawyer.

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 20

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Warren is unapologetically vigorous in defense of his clients. He knows his cases thoroughly, unlike a lot of criminal defense attorneys who do not take the time to study their files. In negotiations, he takes the time to explain in great detail the weaknesses of the prosecution's case in order to obtain a more favorable offer -- both before and after preliminary hearings. Despite this thorough advocacy, he is also always professionally courteous inside the courtroom and genuinely nice outside the courtroom, which I always appreciate from opposing counsel. For this balance, he is well respected at the courthouse."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Geller is an outstanding attorney. I had the pleasure of working with him on a criminal matter for which he represented a co-Defendant. Mr. Geller was thoroughly prepared and very aggressive in his cross-examination of the State's star witness. Based upon his efforts, the case will most likely result in a not guilty verdict since the State's witness' credibility was severely impeached. I would retain Mr. Geller to represent myself if I ever experienced any criminal charges."
