Experienced Criminal Defense Lawyer in Phoenix, Arizona
Rachelle S. Ferraro has over 25 years of experience handling criminal defense cases. She prides herself on providing individualized personal attention to her clients. She is a passionate advocate with a deep commitment to seeking justice for her clients.
Since she began the practice of law in 1998, she has always been on the defense side. Out of necessity because public and sometimes judicial sentiment seem to be pro-state and pro-prosecution, she learned to think "outside the box" very early on in her career. That creativity has served her well in devising strategies, legal theories and even in negotiating creative resolutions to her clients' unique situations.
Having tried over 90 cases to juries, she has earned a reputation as a skilled litigant who has been victorious in several "unwinable" cases. Dissecting and working up thousands of cases, she is known as a thorough, detail oriented, hard working dedicated advocate. Board certified as a criminal law specialist by the Arizona Board of Legal Specialization, Rachelle stands out in the top of her field.
