    “John Keker and his team helped make my 3 days of testifying in front of the SEC in Washington DC during the great blizzard one of the most confidence building ordeals of my career. He taught me just to speak the truth in the Cheyenne Software Securities litigation.”

Before your first call about your criminal defense matter, jot down a short timeline of what happened, where it happened, any letters or notices you have received and your next deadline. If you already have an open case or claim, keep the case number handy, along with the name of the court, agency, insurer or other side. Write down what you want to achieve and the questions you want answered, so nothing gets missed. Hold on to your original documents until the firm tells you how to share them safely.
