Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: CA2903
Rating:9.7

A gentleman and a professional. A friendly courtroom where you are allowed to try your case without judicial meddling.

Court Staff

Comment #: CA2448
Rating:10.0

Comments:
This judge is the last to leave the court building in the evening. He is the "go-to" judge for any problems that arise in the courthouse, whether they are questions about the law, clerical procedure, human relations. And he's just a downright great human being. He cares about, and knows the names of, every single employee in the courthouse, and that includes not only the clerks but also court reporters, interpreters, janitors, entrance guards,bailiffs and maintenance workers. He even asks questions about, and remembers, family members of the staff.

One of my favorite judges. He allows you enough time to try your case, sometimes, it feels like too much. But the bottom line is his rulings are always fair. very comfortable court room.
