Review Sonia Pascher

Simply cannot best

Posted by

Got into trouble after a long night of just hanging out with friends. Sonia was the 5th lawyer I called. She spent an hour on the phone without harrassing me to come into the office. I knew she was the one. She handled my case perfectly. She is the best.

Sonia is a passionate, personable, and honest criminal defense attorney. She's particularly adept at DUI matters, but she's certainly equal to the task in any and all other criminal cases. She is highly involved in the criminal defense community, asks questions when she doesn't know the answers (an excellent quality indeed), and assists other lawyers literally on a daily basis. I'm proud to call Sonia a colleague, and I endorse her without reservation.

Hieu Vu, Criminal defense Attorney on Feb 27, 2012
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Sonia is an amazing attorney and a warrior. She goes out of her way for clients and is aggressive and proactive with making the state prove their case. I remember once case where there was no certification for the officer's training and instead of taking the DA's word and folding, she held to them to fire. It turned that the DA "OVERLOOKED" the officer's training and he was not certified to operate the machine. Case was dismissed! She is also a lawyer's lawyer and helps out other attorneys in the community.
