I trained to be a criminal defense attorney at Federal Defenders of San Diego, Inc. (FDSDI). I was a trial attorney there for four years. While there I had hundreds of clients, tried dozens of cases before juries, and appeared multiple times before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Given the nature of practicing criminal defense in federal court in San Diego, I not only learned how to be criminal trial attorney, I also learned the ins and outs of immigration law.
