Victories

As a pioneering lawyer, Attorney Lombardo was one of the first to represent and protect teenage girls that may have abandoned or hidden their newborn infant, leading to the California Safe Haven Law. National television eagerly sought after Lombardo's legal expertise surrounding the rash of cases sweeping the country. She was the first to appear on television to address the issues and rights involving the teenage girls who kept their pregnancy a secret, gave birth in private and hid or abandoned their newborns. Lombardo successfully defended her own client, keeping her out of jail, getting her case ultimately dismissed, and getting her client custody of the infant. As a result, Lombardo has appeared in the media offering legal expertise on how to defend these young women, until the enactment of the Safe Haven Law.
