Blindsided and At My Darkest Hour

Judy Rochlin represented me when i was arrestd and convicted of a ferderal drug offense. Judy did an amazing job for me. She listened carefully and paid close attention to all the good things i have done in my life; including attending college, caring for and taking full responsibility for my handica...pped niece and nephew, who require a lot parental-structure in their lives. Judy let the judge know that i am a valued member of my family and have very respectable close friends. She focused on my limited role in the offense and persuaded the prosecutor to offer a reduced charge and request a lenient sentence. Judy also persuaded the judge to give me a lenient sentence. Now, i have a completed my substance abuse counselor course work. currently, i am working on my license to be a substance abuse counselor and am making tho most of my best qualities. i am so grateful that Judy represented me in my case in Federal Court. i have recommended Mrs. Rochlin to a couple of people and have shared my experience with her.

We got the best

My nephew was arrested at his high school. Judy was on it immediately. We avoided having any charges filed. She is the best!

Recommendation

My daughter was facing substantial time in federal prison. The prosecution wanted a long sentence. Judith did an amazing job. She fought hard and got a light sentence for my daughter. I am so grateful that Judy represented my daughter.

When the stakes are high, hire Judith Rochlin for the best defense

Ms. Rochlin represented my former husband, who had a penchant for getting in trouble with the law, on several occasions. I would hire her before criminal proceedings commenced, and my former husband did not get a single conviction during the time we were married, in spite of a lot of misbehavior on ...his part. Judy is a dedicated, highly effective and very hard working and experienced criminal lawyer. I have also referred other potential clients to her without reservation.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
