Best Legal Defense Money Can Buy!

I hired Jude to represent me for a very serious sexual assault case. I was facing a wrongful rape charge. There was some, but very little evidence against me. Ultimately Jude was able to get the case 100% dismissed. He was able to get all of the police reports, interviews, evidence, etc. and provided... all of that information to me throughout the course of the case. He was also able to file a waiver that did not require me to be in court in person as I live out of the area, and always kept me informed via e-mail with what happened that day and when my next court date would be. In my opinion he took a very realistic approach to what the outcome may be, always preparing me for the reality of the matters at hand, never sugar coating anything. The reality was that I was facing a maximum of 8 years in prison and a lifetime sex offender registration. Needless to say these were some very serious consequences. After months, and countless court dates, Jude was able to get this case 100% dismissed! There could not have been a better outcome! To Jude, I would just like to say THANK YOU! I am forever grateful to you for your services and I could not recommend hiring a better attorney in the Tahoe-Truckee area. If you are in trouble, do yourself a favor and give Jude M. Koenig a call!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
