Bio
Richard Sala
I reported to Sam during my first year as a practicing attorney, while serving as a criminal prosecutor aboard MCB Camp Pendleton. Candid with feedback, tactful in delivery, and incredibly generous with his time, I could not have asked for a better mentor during that formative time in my career. I always felt welcome to ask questions, even when he was busy with his own caseload. As a new attorney, I felt that my opinion was welcomed and valued. I would gladly welcome the opportunity to work with again. True leader.
Zach Malamud
Sam is a superb trial counsel. During our time as prosecutors, Sam was responsible for managing our office while also maintaining a heavy felony level caseload. The quality of his work, attention to detail, and development of his cases was always exceptional, as was his trial work. A proven leader and lawyer, I would never hesitate to recommend Sam.
