I consulted with her in the mids of there being a serious investigation and allegation against me and she was ready to listen and provided useful knowledge that not only eased my mind but also gave me better insight into what my rights were, what steps I need to take and anything I had a question she...

Came across Maureen Baldwin's card at a bail bonds service after being released from Santa Clara County Jail. Did my due diligence and contacted several lawyers but ended up choosing Maureen after hearing her reasoned and realistic assessment of my case. The initial charge of felony assault with a de...

I came to Maureen after being charged with driving under the influence of drugs from a motorcycle accident. From the moment I spoke to her about my case, I knew I wanted her to defend me. Although she did not promise any particular outcome, she was reassuring and alleviated a lot of the stress and an...

I hired Maureen after I got my first DUI (.09 BAC). I was very nervous and anxious since I have never been in trouble with the law (even as a teen). She thoroughly explained the court proceedings and explained to me in details on what to expect during court arraignment, possible outcome, etc. She wa...

Maureen is a fabulous attorney she was able to get the charges dropped on my domestic violence case. She was well worth the money considering a felony on my record would have ruined my life and destroyed my career. I could not have been happier with her results. She was always available by phone or a...
"I endorse this lawyer. I have had the opportunity to witness her work in the courtroom and have found her to be diligent and hardworking. She is well respected in the legal community."
"Having observed Maureen for almost 20 years, I have witnessed not only her superb legal skills, but also her personalized, caring service. Maureen's ability to quickly and expertly assess a criminal case sets her apart from many of her peers. Her unique combination of skills enables her clients to successfully overcome whatever hurdles they may come across in the litigation process with relative ease. I endorse this lawyer."
"Maureen is one of the best and most prepared lawyers in San Jose, or for that matter the whole state. We have worked on several cases together and she was always two steps ahead of me. If you have the opportunity hire her for your case. Truthfully, there are very few local lawyers I would hire if I were in trouble. Maureen is one of them."
"I have known Maureen Baldwin for many years. She is a true fighter. She knows the law well. She is an excellant attorney."
"Ms. Baldwin is a “litigator’s litigatorâ€. Tough as nails when the situation demands it, but, charming as can be when it does not. The more serious the nature of the offense, the greater are the reasons why Ms. Baldwin should be contacted. Not to suggest, however, that every client she represents has an ultra serious offense. She is “book-smart†as well as “street-smartâ€. I fully endorse this lawyer."
"I admire Ms. Baldwin's meticulous preparation and understanding of the potential immigration consequences of a client's criminal case."
"Maureen represented a co-defendant on a very long criminal defense trial (over three months). Maureen took the position of lead cross-examination and did a superlative job. Her vast experience in the court room was readily apparent and all of the other co-counsels benefited from her knowledge of the facts and the application of the law."
