Ronald O. Kaye ‘89 and David S. McLane ‘86 formed a partnership starting October 15, 2003 with Marilyn E. Bednarski (Loyola Law School and UCLA undergrad). All three are former federal public defenders who joined up after extensive years in the Federal Public Defender's office. Marilyn was Chief Deputy and Dave was a supervisor. Ron was one of the more experienced trial lawyers. They are doing primarily federal criminal defense, as well as civil rights. What is unique is having three former federal public defenders start their own practice by scratch. Most go on their own in solo practice or join existing firms. The vision was to continue to do excellent criminal defense, have control over our practice, and yet have the camaraderie of working together.
