Excellent lawyer

This was hands down the best public defender I've had in a long 20+ year life of being in and out of the justice system..... I had the local police do an illegal search warrant on my house and side a firearm that was legally kept by its registered owner in their safe.... The officer who searched ran... my name and found me to be a felon, and further told me if I didn't "cooperate" with him he was gonna charge me with the gun and ammo anyways ..... Well I chose not to.... And 3 months later I was sitting in jail for felony charges . I only was locked up 14 days and on my preliminary hearing my lawyer cross examined the officer on the stand and eHasan Abul Bajwaasily pointed out all the holes in their "weak" , at best, case ...all charges were dismissed and I was released the same night without further incident ... A case like this in the hands of the wrong council tho could have gone horribly wrong and land somebody in prison for something they are innocent of

HEAVEN SENT

Hasan was so helpful for me! This being my first need for an attorney, i didn't know what to expect. His confidence and his re-assurance that our case would go my way took a lot of pressure off me! Being in court. with Hasan wasn't at all stressful, almost nothing was required from me, he handled eve...rything professionally and in a timley manor. THANK YOU HASAN, YOU'RE THE BEST!

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

N/A

I was a juror on an attempted murder trial that mr. Bajwa was assigned. His ability for persuasion at the opening statement was strong wich establish credibility. He displayed truthfulness and was very sincere throughout the case. Through his explanation of the evidence he was very convincing wich le...d the jury to understand that his defendant was not guilty.
