Gabriel Klein represented me for an Aggravated Assault w/Deadly Weapon charge. His diligence, professionalism, knowledge while managing what looked like an immense workload were amazing. I watched him in The Honorable Judge Nicolaus Thompson's courtroom with his one-handed laptop carrying while going from one client case to another looked like a working honeybee. I don't know how he was able to handle the workload and still be spot on with evidence of my innocence, but he most assuredly did. Thank you, Mr. Klein for your exp... read more

People very rude. Just cutting you off. Putting you on hold without asking you to hold. You could still be talking and before you know it, music is in your ears. They don’t listen. They rush you off the phone. Just despicable

My attorney Robert Bowen did get my 3 felony charges dropped but it took 7 long months 3k in bond and I wasn't employable during this time. My attorney had no desire to take my case to trial, I was constantly told the State was offering a generous offer of 3 years in prison. But I didn't give up and eventually today I got the news that the state dropped all charges. Hallelujah! He wasn't so bad in the end when he joined my team. Job done well. 5 stars 🌟

Supposed to be professionals and acting like middle school drama queens because you’re behind a desk at a public defender office and think you’re above everyone else. You’re getting nowhere in... read more

I would like to start off by saying Kathleen Leon was unhelpful and made little to no effort to communicate with me nor my husband. I understand public defenders are overwhelmed greatly by the cases they take on however, I wish she had a little more pride in her job she took on by going into law. However, if it wasn’t for Jacob Rubin this rating would most likely get one star or below. Jacob Rubin went above and beyond to make sure my husband was fairly heard and his case was quickly closed. Mr. Rubin took the time from his ... read more
