Poughkeepsie Criminal Defense Lawyer

Overview

As a criminal defense attorney, I am honored to be able to assist people in their time of need. It is also an honor to ensure that my clients rights are protected. When handling a criminal matter, I have one goal, achieving the best possible result for my client. I ensure my clients are informed of what is happening in their case and work zealously and diligently to achieve what my clients deserve, which is the best result.

When I am handling an injury case, I make sure to never to treat my clientTMs the way many clients of the large firms are treated. Many law firms treat clients as nothing more than an eventual pay day and fail to understand the pain a person is going through. At my office, I am not strictly concerned with insurance policy limits, I have a natural and genuine desire to emphasize with a client who has been injured as a result of somebody elseTMs negligence. Yes, of course I desire to get my clients the maximum money award possible, however, I never forget that I am dealing with people and not just file numbers.

5.0 out of 5 stars

I hired Raji right before a public defender was about to screw my case up. I had criminal case and was looking at potentially being locked up for 25yrs. Raji took over my case and looked at every aspect of my situation. He saw nothing that the DA had as far as evidence and the case was eventually dismissed. Raji S. Zeidan is the best lawyer I've ever had. His retainer is comparable, but he will work with you so you don't go broke. If ever you find yourself in legal trouble I would HIGHLY advice retaining Raji. For me, he was my attorney. Now Raji is family!

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
