Elias Mensah

I'm a criminal defense lawyer, and only that. Most of my clients have never been arrested before.

I grew up on the Boise Bench, the son of a nurse and a bus driver. Before law school I worked as an investigator for a public defender's office, knocking on doors and reading police reports late into the night. That's where I learned that the person in the file is almost never the person the file describes.

I opened this office so I could take fewer cases and know each one well. I answer my own phone. I meet you in person, at the office or somewhere you're comfortable. And I tell you the truth about your case, including the parts that are hard to hear.
