ABOUT US

“We bring years of experience, skill, expertise, and dedication to the representation of our clients.”

In 2017, Mary Carter Andrues, Vicki Podberesky, Michael Nasatir, and Richard Hirsch joined forces to form ANDRUES/PODBERESKY, a criminal and civil litigation boutique law firm specializing in the representation of clients involved in federal and state criminal investigations and prosecutions, administrative proceedings, commercial litigation, and False Claims Act cases.

Our clients have the unique advantage of being represented by attorneys who have long and seasoned careers as defense counsel and some of whom have served as federal and state criminal prosecutors. This combination of expertise and experience gives us an intricate knowledge and understanding of how prosecutors and law enforcement agents investigate and prosecute cases. We recognize and are sensitive to the impact that a government investigation or civil litigation can have on an individual and on business operations, and strategically focus our efforts to defend against reputational damage and disruptions to business relationships. We develop close, personal attorney-client relationships generally associated with sole practitioners, with the added resources, reputation and collaborative effort that are available only with a firm. We approach each case strategically and creatively, and work collaboratively to provide every client with individual and effective representation. We have the unique advantage of having tried cases in federal and state courts throughout California and received significant recognition for the outstanding results achieved for clients.
