ACHG consists of partners Cristina Arguedas, Ted Cassman, Laurel Headley, and Raphael Goldman. We consistently win cases against district attorneys and federal prosecutors with much larger staffs and far heftier budgets. The keys to our success are teamwork, tenacity, intelligence, and powerful advocacy.
Individually, ACHG’s partners are regularly named among the best lawyers in the United States. We collaborate on every phase of a case, with an emphasis on painstaking investigation, quick mastery of complex material, careful strategic planning, and meticulous follow-through.
By being proactive and working together closely, we are able to take control of cases—from the most routine to the most complicated—before they take control of our clients.

Criminal Defense
ACHG handles virtually every type of criminal matter—from pre-arrest investigations through formal prosecutions, trials and appeals in both the state and federal courts.
Our attorneys know that many of their most significant victories never reach a courtroom. These “quiet” success stories spare the clients and their families untold emotional trauma, embarrassment, and expense.
The firm is committed to achieving success at minimal cost to the client. At the same time, ACHG lawyers know that the surest avenue to success at even the earliest stages of the process is to have total command of the facts and of the law and to demonstrate to the prosecutor that we are thoroughly prepared to fight through trial and even appeal, if necessary.
