Derek and Trudy truly care about their clients. I could not ask for a better representation from beginning to end. Samuelson law gave individualized time and attention to my case to answer every question and concern and put me at ease through the entire process. I would highly recommend Samuelson Law to anyone looking for a great attorney with a great supportive staff.

Mr Samuelson is to be commended for his knowledge of the law, his professionalism and courtesy. Our family would definitely use his services if the need ever arises again. He was successful in getting an acquittal for our son on a 2nd degree assault charge that he proved was self defense. We are very grateful to him.

I found Mr. Samuelson to be extremely professional,approachable, sensitive.He made a horrible situation, bearable. I was amazed how quickly he responded each time I asked questions or needed clarifications. He made me feel like I was his most important client. I would not hesitate to use him again (but truthfully, hope I never need him) or refer him to another.

Derek was prompt and prepared for my case and helped me in a way that I cannot even explain. I have never had to face anything of this nature before and Derek walked me through every step and was there when I needed him.

Derrick Samuelson worked with my teen-child in a knowledgable, straight-up, informed and constructive manner. He disposed of the case while making clear all along the way to my teen-child what the potential consequences presently were and what the consequences for similar circumstances as an adult would be. He went well beyond providing legal services, he stepped up to being a positive role model and mentor. As a consequence of this engagement, lemons were turned into lemonade. Outstanding!

Our college son got into trouble and Derek Samuelson could not have been more helpful in handling the matter on behalf of our son, as communicating to us, his parents until the case was resolved. The fact that our son had made a mistake but done nothing criminally wrong was handled particularly sensitively by Derek - resulting in more than one life lesson to guide our son going forward.
