Crime Victims

The first time I heard a District Attorney tell a victim, “I don’t represent you,” it was like having the air knocked out of me. But, as harsh as it sounded, the District Attorney was telling the truth.

My firm and I, however, have always represented victims of crime. And, for 2014, I served as the President of the National Crime Victim Bar Association, one of the greatest honors of my career to date.

Most Victims, Liaisons, & Lawyers Know Almost Nothing About Crime Victims' Rights

Representing victims of crime is as unique a specialty in law as there is. Dedicated and caring liaisons at the District Attorney’s Office don’t know your rights. Personal injury lawyers with hundreds of cases don’t know your rights. We may be able to surprise you by recognizing your rights in your case that nobody ever mentioned. But do not delay. It is a dangerous myth that you should wait until the criminal case is over. The deadlines are already ticking.
