Descending from a 19th century judge and a long line of country lawyers, Attorney Linda Louder is the matriarch of the Sacramento based law firm. She approaches her cases with the same straightforward, honest, caring approach as did her forbearers.

Ms. Louder has successfully represented thousands of clients in criminal defense matters. She brings to the table the elegant strength of a self assured woman who is familiar with and respected by the courts and her adversaries. The term "steel hand in a velvet glove" best describes Ms. Louder's approach. Her success can be credited to her diplomatic nature, excellent negotiation skills and an unwillingness to settle for an unjust resolution. Her experience in the district attorneys office has enabled her to understand the other side and quickly evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of their case.

Linda received her Bachelor of Science and performed her graduate coursework at the University of Mississippi with other such notables as John Grisham and Archie Manning and Morgan Freeman. While attending Ole Miss, Linda Louder worked as a deputized assistant to the well known and colorful figure, Lafayette County Sheriff, Buddy East.

Upon graduation, Linda worked as an itinerant teacher and instructed kinesthetically gifted and underprivileged children in rural Mississippi. Linda was responsible for the persuasive writing whereby the county was awarded federal funds for that gifted program.

Linda's life goal has been to work hard to level the playing field for the underprivileged. Her more recent goal is to fiercely defend the individuals who have been the victims of overzealous prosecutors.

As a devoted wife, mother and grandmother, Ms. Louder brings the life experience necessary to fully appreciate all aspects of a case. She understands that an entire family is affected when a member is charged with a domestic violence, DUI, drug offense, or other types of offenses.

As a result of her experience with counseling families during these stressful times, Ms. Louder has expanded her practice to handle delicate family law matters; i.e. divorce, custody issues, property agreements, alimony, child support, pre-marital agreements, etc.

In criminal and family law matters there can be no guaranteed outcome. The only guarantee Ms. Louder offers is that she will devote all of her energies and resources in providing her clients with the best defense possible.
