With more than 22 years of trial experience in difficult criminal and personal injury cases, Steve Topazio's professional skills are equally suited to the resolution of criminal and civil matters. Though felony defense and negligence litigation involve entirely different legal principles and procedural rules, there are many parallels between them that tap into the same skill set and client service values:
- Criminal defense and personal injury litigation both involve the protection of individual rights against powerful institutions — insurance companies and the government
- Both are confusing and inherently threatening — nobody plans on getting hurt in an accident or getting arrested for a crime
- Both are adversarial in nature — you're facing an opponent who wants the opposite of what you want
- Both can be resolved either through effective negotiation or at trial
- The results in both criminal defense and personal injury cases will often depend on your lawyer's skill with handling evidence — facts relating to liability and damages in the former, and facts relating to guilt or innocence in the latter
Steve Topazio realizes that the experience and skill that serve his criminal defense clients well are highly useful in personal injury matters as well — and the other way around.
