Many attorneys dabble in criminal law. Logan spent his career specializing in criminal defense.

As early as law school, Logan was one of just 16 students chosen nationwide for the prestigious Gideon’s Promise training program. He went on to represent thousands of clients as a state public defender in Los Angeles County and then as a federal public defender in San Diego. In 2019 alone, Logan won 7 straight not guilty verdicts at trial, earning him the title 2019 Misdemeanor Attorney of the Year in an office of over 700 lawyers. He has earned dismissals on every kind of case, ranging from misdemeanor DUI’s to the most serious felonies with potential life-sentences.

A former college boxer, Logan knows how to tape up his knuckles and fight for his clients. But he also knows that winning a case is about telling the better story. Logan is a published fiction author and a former reporter and editor for the Daily Journal, California’s most prestigious legal news provider. Logan has adapted his writing and narrative skills to tell his clients’ stories in the most effective ways possible.

While prosecutors see a file, Logan sees a person.

Logan defended a client facing two counts of child molestation.
The prosecution held a recorded confession, and a life sentence was on the line.

He conducted a relentless, two-hour cross-examination of the lead detective to expose flaws in the investigation.
He uncovered the hidden context behind the “confession,” rebuilding the story from the ground up for the jury.
