About the Nimmo Law Group
Rich Berkon
Richard Berkon is a senior litigator and trial lawyer with the Nimmo Law Group. He handles serious felonies and major criminal litigation for the firm. Richard, or Rich as he is known, is a very experienced criminal defense lawyer. His integrity is without question and he is universally respected by the Deputy District Attorneys, the Courts, and his clients. Whether he is in a Court in San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange County, or Riverside/San Bernardino he knows how to get the proper amount of respect and attention to his client’s matter. He knows how to balance being aggressive with being diplomatic. This is an important trait in a criminal lawyer. You need to be aggressive enough to let the other side know you mean business, but diplomatic enough not to alienate them and cause you or your client problems.
The firm trusts the even the most serious matters to Richard. He is experienced handling murders, attempted murders, vehicular manslaughters, serious great bodily injury and deadly weapon assaults, carjackings, kidnappings, and all types of sexual assault cases. Sexual assault cases are tough and require the best attorneys. Many of these accusations are false and if they involve children the odds are stacked against the accused. The accusations that are not false require a lawyer who is capable of persuading tough prosecutors that their client deserves mercy. Rich is also very good in white collar matters and matters involving the trafficking and possession for sales of drugs and other narcotics. His clients know and trust that he is on their side.
Like the other lawyers in the Nimmo Law Group, Rich Berkon has built up an impressive record of favorable results for his clients. Please review his sample results to understand the quality of his work.
