I want to express my deep feeling of gratitude to you for your unswerving and steadfast faith and my case, and the staggering amount of work you did in preparing for trial . . . I will always remember with fondness our harried and frantic work together in preparing for trial…. and at times your strokes of genius. I believe[the government] was truly shocked when they realized……that not only did I have a for-real fighting attorney, but one who really knew what he was doing. You were truly magnificent in the courtroom. You exuded charisma that made the Assistant United States Attorney pale in comparison. I am very proud to have worked with one of the best (maybe the best). [You are] one of the vanishing breed of honest and ethical attorneys will give his all for a client – a defense attorney who hasn’t prostituted himself to the government. I will never forget you.
