CACJ Remembers Long Time Member & Criminal Defense Attorney, Gigi Gordon

We lost a dear colleague after a long, painful and debilitating illness on Tuesday, January 17, 2012.

Gigi Gordon was a tireless defender and a true believer in the rights of the powerless. She was a consummate strategist and fought for these reasons for many years, all the while with a sparkle and an edgy sense of humor. She will be missed and never forgotten, CACJ wishes to express sincere condolences to all who knew her, including her family and long time associates.
