The Criminal Defense Dream Team

ACHG consists of partners Ted Cassman and Raphael Goldman. (Cristina Arguedas and Laurel Headley recently retired.)

We consistently win cases against district attorneys and federal prosecutors with much larger staffs and far heftier budgets. The keys to our success are teamwork, tenacity, intelligence, and powerful advocacy.

ACHG’s partners are regularly named among the best lawyers in the United States. We collaborate on every phase of a case, with an emphasis on painstaking investigation, quick mastery of complex material, careful strategic planning, and meticulous follow-through.

By being proactive and working together closely, we are able to take control of cases—from the most routine to the most complicated—before they take control of our clients.
