No field of law is more personal and human than Criminal Defense. No field of law puts more at stake. At the Law Offices of Ian Wallach, we are dedicated to ensuring that every pathway has been taken to deter or minimize consequences that can arise from governmental accusations.

Ian Wallach has practiced criminal law in New York and California and federal courts across the nation. Combining his compassionate nature with years of experience as a corporate litigator, Deputy Public Defender for the County of Los Angeles, and private practitioner with Feldman & Wallach, Mr. Wallach competently and compassionately protects his clients caught in the criminal justice system.

Every criminal case should be approached on its own merits and examined for defenses, problems of proof, and mitigating circumstances. We work closely with our clients to identify their goals and concerns. Working together, we give our clients their best chance at a nonrestrictive or least restrictive result. We have the dedication and, if need be, trial skills to achieve the best result possible. Although each case is different, every case is initially prepped as though we are going to trial. Trial is where power is taken from the prosecutor and court and vested into the hands of people. With a stellar trial track record, Mr. Wallach is both confident before a Jury (or Judge) and eager, should the client choose, to use the possibility of another trial success as a means to obtain the least restrictive resolution.

Ian Wallach has handled thousands of criminal defense cases in state and federal courts throughout the nation, ranging from misdemeanors to murders. In 2023 to 2024 alone he obtained acquittals for all life counts in two back-to-back multi-week or multi-month trials (which included the People v. Pedro Martinez case that received international attention). Ian Wallach has a steadfast reputation as a zealous and effective trial attorney and known to be a warrior for his client.   As a Deputy Public Defender for the County of Los Angeles he earned his reputation for being a zealous, creative, and aggressive trial attorney with an impeccable record.  He trial and disposition track record is superb and can be provided upon request.  To read about his recent successes, click here.  To make an appointment with Ian Wallach, contact us now by clicking here.
