Lana Kreidie defends youth and adults in juvenile delinquency and criminal court.  A graduate of UC Hastings College of the law, Lana served as a Deputy Public Defender for 11 years in Riverside County before starting her private practice in the Bay Area where she is a panel member in Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties.  Her practice values team based advocacy and a whole person defense model designed to advance youth out of the criminal justice system and into their education, career, and future.  Lana works with attorneys, policy advocates, and various organizations to advocate for her clients and inspire legal reform in areas affecting juvenile justice.  More recently, Lana served as trial counsel and co-counsel in the Court of Appeal in R.E. vs. Superior Court, a published opinion that helped inspire reform efforts to minimize transfer of youth to adult court and to keep them out of jails whenever possible.  Over the years, Lana has enjoyed presenting and training in various areas including investigating and litigating transfer cases, the intersection between transfer litigation and education law, as well as litigating prejudicial delay.  She serves on the board of the Bay Area Arabic School and on CPDA’s Juvenile Defense Committee.  Her commitment to youth, human rights, and public service is inspired by her experience as an immigrant in the United States and her childhood in Lebanon where she survived war, experienced life as a refugee in Syria, and overcame adversity through family and community.  Lana loves to cook Mediterranean cuisine and is the proud mother of Maya and Zade, two brave kids who are busy getting ready to make our world a better place.
