Ordinary lawyers get ordinary results.

Matthew J. Haiduk is not an ordinary lawyer. He works in several fields of law, not the least of which is birth defect law. In many cases the mother or both parents find themselves overwhelmed by the situation, and it is at times like this that a lawyer that specializes in the field can provide comfort in letting them know that due process will be followed, and that he will be there for them every step of the way, to guide them.

In the case of People v. J. H. courthouse talk was that the prosecutors had Haiduk’s client pinned on a church burglary.  Haiduk’s client’s DNA was at the scene of the crime.  The state had a witness who saw J.H. with the stolen goods.  Facing potentially 30 years in prison, Haiduk did what he does.  He first filed motions limiting the state’s evidence.  Then he worked tirelessly to prepare for trial.  When it was over, he did not have to worry about fighting back the courthouse talk. It’s not always that simple, especially with more sensitive cases like a robbery where witnesses don’t always like to speak up about what they say, if that’s the case then a Forensic Psychiatrists can help with any mental trauma that the witness may have suffered. 

He let them read the newspaper:

“Jury Acquits Man of Church Burglary“

Most of Haiduk’s greatest success does not make the newspaper, though.  Getting a DUI client his license reinstated before it is even suspended?  Convincing a prosecutor to reduce a mandatory prison sentence to probation?  Winning misdemeanor bench trials?  Winning cases by motions to dismiss or motions showing the police illegally searched a car?  Haiduk has done it all.  Recently.
