My approach to criminal defense: I defend every client the way I would want to be defended if I found myself charged with crime. I fight with everything I have and put myself at risk if necessary to protect my client. Often times at trial...a judge will try and screw over the defendant with unfair rulings.  I don't stand for it. If a judge is acting with bias I call it out loud and clear. The only way our justice syste works  is when a defendant is given a fair trial with due process. When that happens the truth will find its way and the jury will reach the right decision.. I wake up early every morning and surf to start my day. It keeps me in shape and puts me in a good mood.  I am an avid outdoorsman. I love fishing and hunting.  I work hard and play hard and approach every day as though it might be my last.

I'm a criminal defense attorney with over three decades of experience in the criminal justice system.. I'm a former Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney. After leaving the office in 1987 I have been practicing criminal defense for over 30 years.. I have the legal expertise and knowhow but most importantly have developed and nurtured lasting and positive relationships with my colleagues in the criminal justice system. These skills and relationships have been critical to obtaining the very best results for my clients.. I've handled well over 10,000 criminal cases in my career; everything from traffic tickets to murder cases.. I'm politically active throughout Los Angeles County and have been a pivotal supporter for candidates for various Los Angeles County Criminal Justice offices including the District Attorney the Sheriff's Department, the City Attorney, and a host of Superior Court judges and Commissioners.. I'm a founding member of the Honorable Benjamin Aranda III American Inn of Court established in 1994 and have been designated a Master Lawyer and "Lawyer Emeritus" by that organization.. My relationships within the criminal justice system stretch from the top of the supervisor staff to the day-to-day court staff; everyone knows me and my reputation precedes me.

I started out working as an intern in the San Francisco Office of the Public Defender for a year and a half, handling misdemeanors, while attending law school.  After graduating from law school I moved to Los Angeles and started clerking at a private criminal defense law firm.  Upon passing the California BAR I began practicing criminal defense.

I have been in practice for over 33 years.  I have operated my own Law Firm for 31 of those 33 years.  I have handled a wide variety of types of cases, however, currently I emphasis criminal law.  I have been on many high profile Organized Crime RICO cases as well as cases involving the highest number of co-defendants in the country, 142.  I've represented gang members and private individuals who found themselves in difficult situations & have strived to help them out of it to be able to go on with their lives. l was involved in the largest Child Pornography case in the country in Louisiana wherein my client was exposed to a 35 year mandatory minimum sentence, but received a sentence of 5 years. I have a broad range of experience involving the whole range of State & Federal criminal cases.

I have been a tireless advocate for criminal cases involving substance abuse and mental health issues for almost 25 years.  I look forward to speaking with you directly about your criminal matter and offer a free consultation.

I graduated from Loyola Law School in 1995 and I have handled thousands of misdemeanor, felony, and juvenile cases.  I have a proven track record of client satisfaction and winning the best results for my clients.

I began my career in criminal defense by being my Criminal Procedure professor's teaching assistant in law school.  After graduating in 1997, I worked at an appellate firm in San Francisco while awaiting Bar results.  At this firm, I worked on several appeals of clients facing the death penalty, and worked on the appeal for one of the Mendendez brothers.  It was here I learned all about the appellate process, and loved it.. After passing the Bar (1st time), I went to the San Francisco Public Defender's Office as a certified/licensed intern, and started handling cases of my own.  Before long I went to Humboldt County to work as a Deputy Public Defender, where I handled all manner of misdemeanors and felonies, in addition to juvenile and dependency  cases.  I then transferred to the Los Angeles County Public Defender's Office, where I had a near-100% acquittal rate.  I loved this position, and thoroughly learned the process and procedure in Los Angeles County Courts (as an aside, I would advise hiring a lawyer who has been either a District Attorney or a Public Defender, without question.  Lawyers who go straight into private practice, in my experience, do not sufficiently know "the ropes," if you will).. I went into private practice after a number of years, and worked for the firm of Trutanich-Michel, where I specialized in firearm-related matters in both state and federal court.  I also wrote several writs and appeals, and was a panel member for an MCLE educational seminar.  My section was "Firearms: possession, use and the law.". Since then, I have ran my own law firm, and handled all manner of cases in Los Angeles, Orange, Santa Barbara, San Bernadino and Riverside counties.  I take cases to trial more than any other private lawyer I know.  This is because I charge very reasonable and fair rates and, most importantly, begin preparing a case a case for trial right from the outset.  It is by preparing a case for trial that you are able to get the most beneficial plea agreements for your client, as you are then able to systematically point out the weaknesses in the case to the prosecutor or, as often happens, get positive results by trying the case before a jury.. I handle all manner of criminal cases, everything from a DUI and DMV proceedings to Murder.  I also have had the opportunity to take many family law matters in recent years, and am proficient in that area as well.  I give free consultations to all clients, so give us a call whenever you or a loved one need assistance.  We are here to help!

I became an attorney to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. As a person born in the Islamic Republic of Iran, I saw how people would get arrested for nothing more than their religious beliefs. I saw those same people not have access to an attorney and the Court system. What I can provide to my clients is a promise that I will be their voice in the criminal justice system and do everything in my power to prevent them from being treated as just another case number, rather than a human being.

I am also member of the Los Angeles County Bar Association where I serve as a member of the Bench and Bar Committee. The Bench and Bar Committee serves as a liaison between the judges and the attorneys which practice as members of the LACBA. I am also a former director of the South Bay Bar Association where I chaired the litigation committee. I have served on numerous charitable foundations including the Peninsula Education Foundation where I served as trustee and chaired the endowment committee.. I have taught and lectured other attorneys at California Mandatory Continuing Legal Education courses on topics ranging from phantom income, complex cash flow and business valuations to domestic violence and child custody.. In my spare time I enjoy traveling with my wife Linda and three beautiful children Taylor, Ashley and Derek. I am also an avid waterman and enjoy surfing and sailing.

I dedicate my time and effort on ensuring my client's get the justice they deserve.

I treat every case now matter how big or small as if it's my own family member's. I stand by the motto that, "Defense Wins Games, Not Offense!"
