Maggie Samec Esq.

I work hard to defend and protect my client's rights and take seriously my role as legal counselor to listen, educate, inform, and advise. I have a unique perspective after prosecuting adult felonies for well over a decade. I know what is needed to effectively prosecute a case and can find holes in the government's case to fight for you.

Whether it makes sense to fight to keep out evidence or dismiss charges, take a case to trial, get the best deal, advocate at sentencing, or a combination thereof, I work hard to get the best outcome for my clients.

For more than 20 years, my practice of law has been about helping people. I became a lawyer to be a voice for those who need an advocate in our legal system, starting with asylum/deportation defense as a student attorney. I moved into the practice of family law, then into child protection and civil matters, and finally found my home in criminal law. I prosecuted adult felonies for over thirteen years. Prior to joining Ryan Pacyga Criminal Defense, I was a public defender and fell in love all over again with the Constitution. Protecting your Constitutional rights is of utmost importance in seeking a more just criminal justice system.
