Juan Vega
No-nonsense, former prosecutor, & current military attorney.
After over twelve years of criminal prosecution, I have decided to dedicate my career to defending the rights of individual citizens. For years I sat back and wondered why so many defense attorneys failed their clients. Why didn’t they challenge a stop? Why didn’t they challenge a search? Why didn’t they ask for a plea deal? I now know that it’s because they do not know what prosecutors know or how they think. I do.
I have the courage to fight for you and the experience to negotiate for you. Most important, I have the wisdom to know the difference.
I am a no-nonsense former enlisted Marine, a current Army judge advocate, and an adjunct professor of criminal law. Don't be fooled by the lack of awards. The dirty little secret is that those accolades are sold by bogus organizations. Also, I don't beg for reviews or for endorsements, so you won't find any.
Call or email me for a free consultation. I might not immediately get back to you because my primary focus is serving my existing clients, not finding new ones.
