Investigations &
Witness Representation

Knowing how to represent a client at trial is not something that can be learned in a day, a month, or even a year. True trial skill—the instinct, judgment, and composure that define effective advocacy—develops only through years of experience and repeated exposure to the courtroom.

What makes Bozorgi Law unique is that each of our attorneys has extensive trial experience, and together we bring decades of it to every representation. Our lawyers have collectively tried hundreds of jury trials in federal and state courts across the country.

Being trial ready is the foundation of a strong defense. It means more than being prepared for trial—it reflects the confidence and willingness to try a case when necessary. This readiness is critical, whether the opposing party is the United States Government, the State of Florida, or a private individual or entity. It’s easy to champion a theory in a conference room; it’s in the courtroom where its true strength is revealed.

We have the confidence to try a case because we have been trying cases for decades. In addition to representing clients at trial in white-collar and general criminal matters, we also have experience in civil litigation, including enforcement actions brought by the SEC in federal court. Because of our depth of trial experience, we are frequently called upon to prepare witnesses for depositions, hearings, and trial testimony.
