Jason Seidman

Attorney Jason A. Seidman spent five years as a prosecutor, attaining a level of know-how that is invaluable to his criminal defense practice — and his clients — today. “I know how prosecutors think,” he says. “That can be incredibly valuable now, in either trying to get a better plea offer or in trying to find a strategy to win at trial because you know that the prosecutor is thinking like a prosecutor and you can slip some defense attorney strategies in there that they never see coming.” As a prosecutor, Attorney Seidman was involved in a high-profiled cold case murder that was brought back to life by DNA evidence 30 years after. The case was a homicide of a 15-year-old prostitute. Attorney Seidman was part of the team that secured the conviction of the killer following a five-week trial that involved 30 witnesses. Another highlight was his involvement in the investigation and prosecution of a 24-defendant racketeering case involving rival subsets of the Bloods street gang, the G-Shine Bloods and the Nine Trey Bloods, which were engaged in a turf war that resulted in the death of an innocent man killed by a stray bullet. Attorney Seidman recently had a jury trial wherein his client was facing years behind bars and parole ineligibility since it was a gun case. Attorney Seidman secured a NOT GUILTY verdict after the jury deliberated for thirty (30) minutes. Attorney Seidman’s current practice focuses on criminal law with a strong emphasis on felony-level cases. He has achieved numerous positive outcomes for clients, including dismissal of a case where his client faced up to 10 years in prison involving a gun that the client didn’t know was in his bag and was detected by airport screening. Attorney Seidman has also been successful at having a number of his clients who were first-time offenders admitted to the state’s Pretrial Intervention Program (PTI).
