Courtroom Drama

To say Robert Cortes has lived a colorful life is to blatantly under state the obvious. Mr. Cortes is a retired public defender who has battled it out in California courtrooms for over 30 years. Battled is precisely the word he has used to describe his approach to the numerous amount of court cases he’s had over the past years. Robert is extremely candid and paints clear pictures of his world and what it was like to be a Public Defender handling criminal defense cases. Mr. Cortes openly relays his truths about defending alleged murderers, sexual predators and many of his ex clients who were charged with heinous crimes. He was great at sharing tidbits and insights about the law. Plus it was fun hearing his humorous anecdotes about all the shenanigans that takes place in the courtroom.
