Winning while taking on tough cases- Jerry Zerkin

Send us a text

Fairfax criminal lawyer Jonathan Katz started law school seeing the glass as more half empty than full when it came to protecting people's Constitutional rights and civil liberties. That situation began shifting as Jon Katz learned about the many people around him who not only were fighting like hell for the side of justice, but who refused to depart from their optimism.

One of those lawyers is Gerald Zerkin. Jerry's name became more well known with his helping to get Earl Washington, Jr., off death row with DNA analysis. Then, Jerry became the death penalty defense-eligible lawyer on the team defending Zacarias Moussaoui against the federal death penalty, where the prosecution was unable to put him on death row.

It is not enough to have the skill to be a criminal defense lawyer. The fire in a great criminal defense lawyer's belly, true caring for the defendant in the attorney's heart, and being a true believer can provide an attorney that oomph spelling the difference between winning or not.
