Alma Hernandez

Investigator

An investigation begins with a question and ends with understanding. For me, it’s not all about completing a task, but seeking insights and achieving positive outcomes beyond the courtroom.

Alma worked for two years as an investigative specialist in the Trial Division of the Public Defender Service (PDS) in Washington, D.C. Prior to that, she worked as a criminal investigative intern at the Virginia Indigent Defense Commission and as an investigative intern with PDS. She holds a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and criminology from the University of Maryland, College Park. She is a native English speaker with Spanish fluency. She is a licensed private investigator in Virginia and Maryland.
