About the Law Office of J. Bradley Cockrell
It was 1993 that the Law Office of J. Bradley Cockrell opened its doors. Over the ensuing decades we’ve committed our practice exclusively to criminal defense law. We believe that getting fair treatment for defendants requires complete commitment from their attorney. Our laser focus on criminal justice matters allows us to give each client the focus they deserve.
We serve clients in the English, Spanish and French-speaking communities of Lafayette. Call today at (337) 448-4777 or fill out our online form to set up a consultation.
We’ve developed a nice track record of success since 1993. We believe that one big reason for that is our willingness to go to trial. It’s not uncommon for defendants to accept a plea deal because, deep down, they have an attorney who doesn’t believe they can make a case in court. By contrast, we’re down for the legal fight. We relish the chance to stand in front of a jury and make a vigorous argument on behalf of our client.
When you’ve established a willingness to go to court and an ability to win at trial, prosecutors can take notice. Our reputation within the legal community as fighters and winners might serve our clients in good stead when hard decisions are made by a District Attorney on what charges to file and what cases to pursue.
Clients that come to the Law Office of J. Bradley Cockrell will be treated with respect and a straightforward approach. We believe that all our defendants deserve the right to be presumed innocent–especially by their own lawyer. We believe that in cases where the evidence against a defendant is strong our clients still deserve a second chance and fair treatment. And we absolutely believe that our years of experience handling a range of criminal defense cases can make us a real asset to a defendant in their time of need .
This is not the time for defendants to be taking chances on untested counsel. Don’t gamble on your attorney. Call the Law Office of J. Bradley Cockrell today at (337) 448-4777 or contact us online to set up a consultation.
