Civil Litigation - Private

Rating:2.4
Comments:
Reluctantly I have come to the conclusion that Judge Blake is a lazy jurist who has lost her ability at independent thought. Very sad. Most of her opinions these days are intellectually dishonest. On a brighter note, she is pleasant in the courtroom.

She is thoughtful, hard working and gets what it means to be a trial judge. I am thrilled to have her in civil cases, regardless of side, but in criminal cases, she definitely leans toward the government.

Everything a great judge should be, and a pleasure to appear before. She is fair, even-handed, smart, conscientious and polite. Win or lose, you know you'll get a fair shake with Judge Blake.
