Criminal Defense Lawyer

Rating:10.0
Comments:
Judge Armstrong was one of the first Judges that I appeared before when I started out as an Attorney. Justice in Somerset County is tough but it is fair.
All the criminal defense judges are good. My client had problems however.

He is one of the most inconsiderate judges that I have ever appeared before. He is never on time, and has no sense of the scheduling needs of other judges or the attorneys who appear before him. He simply could not care less about anything or anyone except himself. He is not very bright, and is also extremely arrogant. He cannot retire soon enough to suit me.

This judge is arrogant, and not as bright as he would like to suggest.
