No one would take my case!!!

I was being charged with rape, kidnapping, breaking and entering. I went to jail. I thought my life was over. I kept telling the cops it wasn't me, no one would believe me. A friend recommended this attorney to me and he heard me out and said he would do everything he could to help me. He did, I was ...in jail for about 6 months, he did all kinds of checking around and his investigator did a lot of research on my behalf and found out that in fact I was innocent. In the end the actual criminal did in fact look like me. In the end all of the charges were dropped and I was let go. I would strongly recommend this attorney; he is incredible to work with. He really listened to everything I had to say and he gave me hope. I knew I was innocent, because in fact I wasn't even there at the time of the crime. I just live in the same building as the jerk who now serving 30 years. I give Jeffery Tenenbaum an overall excellent rating. He gives all Attorney’s a good name.

  • 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.
