While it is true that most cases are resolved before trial, obtaining the best plea bargain or favorable settlement often hinges upon being represented by an experienced trial attorney with a reputation for winning good results at trial. An attorney with a strong trial record has greater leverage when negotiating with a prosecutor or an insurance company than a lawyer who is not prepared to take the matter to court.

Firm principal David L. Andersen has nearly four decades of experience as a trial attorney, and has an established reputation for achieving strong results on behalf of his clients. Mr. Andersen was selected as a Northern California Super Lawyer in 2007, and has been awarded an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell, indicating that fellow attorneys rank him at the highest level of professional excellence.

If you are under investigation or facing charges in a California state or federal court, or if you have been injured or lost a loved one due to the negligence or reckless act of another, you need a lawyer who can protect your rights.
