There’s nothing I’m more passionate about than advocating for my clients in the courtroom. I know that the legal system can be intimidating for many. While my role is to ardently defend their rights in the courtroom, I also see the immense value in offering emotional support. It’s not just about winning cases; it’s about guiding my clients through challenging times with care and understanding. My ultimate goal with each client is not only to vindicate their rights but also to alleviate the emotional weight of the legal process. When I manage to secure a favorable outcome for them and provide some peace of mind during their crisis, I truly feel accomplished. Here’s what a juror from one of my recent trials shared after witnessing my commitment in the courtroom:

“Wadi, I wanted to connect with you to tell you that I was impressed with the job you did over the past 2 weeks. You spoke with purpose only when needed. Your comments were pointed and direct. When surrounded by adversity you maintained focus. Your speaking ability never blundered during examination. You served your client well and should be proud of the job you did.”

PRACTICE AREAS

Confronting a criminal law matter or major lawsuit can be extremely stressful and unsettling
The main reason Wadi’s criminal defense and litigation practices have become so successful is the personal attention he devotes to each client.

When you retain Wadi, he is the attorney who will personally handle your trial if it comes to that, and he will ensure that all avenues are exhausted when dealing with law enforcement, prosecutors, opposing attorneys, and judges on behalf of each of his clients. Wadi makes sure that his clients understand each step of the legal process and he will be at your side the entire time.

Actual Trial Experience and Record of Success
One of the best kept secrets is that many of the area’s “top litigators” and “trial attorneys” have actually not conducted many actual jury trials. In contrast, Wadi has won dozens of trials for clients in all types of cases and against the so-called “top law firms” in the country. Wadi is ready to help you in your case. TRIAL TESTED – Examples
