A Judge Who Cares

​Rachel Viñales cares about Kalamazoo County.

 

Rachel has spent her career defending some of our society's most vulnerable and marginalized individuals.  She takes pride in being able to represent her clients' interests with dignity, show them compassion throughout the court process, and safeguard their constitutional rights every day.

​

Rachel will take the lessons she's learned as a public defender with her to the bench.

 

When Rachel is on the bench, our community can be confident she will ensure transparency in the judicial process, treat all parties fairly, and show compassion to everyone who steps into her court room.
