With a solid 26 years of experience, I've been a reliable ally for attorneys in criminal cases. My expertise spans across Los Angeles County, and I've even contributed to the State Bar of California, serving on a Commission responsible for interviewing and selecting judges for the Governor of California.

My extensive experience has given me a deep understanding of the legal system, including various agencies. I've worked with the District Attorney's office, serving in east Los Angeles in 1992, and as a research attorney for a Superior Court judge in the early 1990s.

So, I've seen all angles when it comes to criminal case, and specifically, when it comes to attorneys who get charged with crimes.  I've also been a criminal defense attorney since 1994, just representing criminal defendants, and I've represented a lot of attorneys along the way for various crimes ranging from DUI to domestic violence to more serious offenses like embezzlement and fraud.

Then, obviously, I know that we're not just talking about the criminal element and the threat of jail time and other possible punishments; we're also talking about your state bar license, so we have to make sure that we coordinate our efforts to try and protect your license, your representation, and, of course, your freedom.

Our first step is to thoroughly assess your case, its severity, and the potential defense strategies. This process involves a detailed discussion to ensure we have a strong defense plan, backed by the expertise of two attorneys.

One who has been doing it for 26 years and another one. I'm sure you're well-schooled in your area of expertise, but you also have the type of mind that can think like an attorney and assist me in defending your case. Your input and understanding of the situation are crucial in building a strong defense.

So, if it's a defensible case, I encourage you to look at my reviews.  Look at the videos.  I have over 300 on YouTube so you can see what type of an attorney I am — how I carry myself, my confidence level, and obviously my experience level.

If you're going to challenge the District Attorney's office or the City Attorney's office in a criminal jury trial, you'll want an attorney who has handled over 200 jury trials on your side.

Mitigation Package

On the other hand, if you and I realize that the prosecutors have sufficient evidence against you to prove the case against you, obviously, we're in a different situation.

We're going to do damage control. We're going to put together a mitigation package, which involves gathering evidence and testimonials that show the prosecutors your good side, your family, your job, and what you do for the community. Then, we can really get down to the nitty-gritty of defending you the right way.

So, if you're an attorney and have been charged with a crime in Los Angeles, I encourage you to come and sit down with somebody like me who has been down the road that you are about to travel and had successful outcomes for my attorney clients.

There are a lot of different things that go into defending a criminal case — whether the person is an attorney or some other professional —. I've got a lot of experience with these types of criminal cases, and I really know how to dig in and either defend the case if necessary or show the prosecutors that there is another side to you that they need to look at.

The good thing about crimes involving attorneys is that you're usually going to have sophisticated prosecutors. The person is typically, but not always, going to be specially assigned, so we're going to be dealing directly with them and probably their supervisor.

It makes it a lot easier to get special attention, as far as them having the time to look at mitigating evidence or even evidence that shows you're not guilty of the crime that you're being charged with.

Whereas, suppose you're just lumped in with all of the other general criminal defendants in Los Angeles. In that case, it's a huge county — over a thousand prosecutors, over 38 different courthouses, and very busy, and sometimes it isn't easy to get the personal attention to really look at the case.

Certainly, I'm going to do it, but we need to be able to get a prosecutor with some authority to look at it. One of my specialties is knowing the inner workings of a District Attorney's office.

I know how to defend an attorney who is charged with a charge, what mitigating information to get to them, how to present it, and obviously, how to get the result that you need to protect your freedom, your rights, your liberty, and of course, do whatever we can to help you with your state bar license.

So, if you're an attorney who is charged with a crime, pick up the phone.  Make the call.  You can speak directly to me, Ron Hedding.  We can do everything we can to help you and get you out of the criminal justice system as fast as possible.
