There are many law firms competing for the privilege of representing you in your self-defense case. We know you have a difficult decision to make. Here is why we believe The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm is the right choice.
We Do One Thing. And We Are 100% Committed To Doing It Better Than Anyone Else.
Self-defense law is the only thing we do. Every attorney on our team exclusively specializes in this area of law and is committed to nothing else.
That focus matters. Attorneys who handle self-defense cases every day understand the forensic evidence, the legal standards, and the courtroom dynamics that criminal defense attorneys with a general practice encounter only occasionally. When your freedom is on the line, you want the team that has been here before.
We have been here many times before.
We Have Certified Criminal Law Specialists on Our Team.
Being a State Bar of Arizona Certified Criminal Law Specialist is a mark of excellence and a distinguished accomplishment. Certified Criminal Law Specialists are lawyers who have substantial experience, the respect of their peers, and demonstrated special knowledge, skills, and proficiency in their area of law.
With Marc J. Victor, Elizabeth Mullins, Joey Hamby, and Howard A. Snader, The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm is the only firm in Arizona with four Certified Criminal Law Specialists on its team. Out of more than 18,000 active State Bar of Arizona members, less than 1% hold this designation.
