I'm a criminal law specialist, certified by the California Board of Legal Specialization. Less than 1% of attorneys in California have this designation. I'm a top-rated attorney in LA and Orange County as rated by the American Society of Legal Advocates. Listen: not all lawyers get great results for their clients. I do. Some lawyers charge outrageous prices. I do not. To put it bluntly: you want to win your case but you can't afford a $100,000 retainer. The big firms can't give you the responsive and affordable representation that I can. They have too much overhead. Some firms that quote rock-bottom prices will take whatever money you give them but they will not work hard to win your case.. Let's get real. You want to hire an experienced fighter who has both criminal trial experience and law enforcement experience. Eight years of experience as a cop have taught me how to deal with the police and beat them at their own game. I've read their play book and I know how to beat them.. I've gotten cases dismissed without my clients having to pay for trial or set foot inside a courthouse. I've won trials for my clients. What is more important is that I care about my clients, as my client reviews and professional endorsements attest.. Don't bet your entire future on an unprepared attorney or an expensive firm that doesn't care about you. Call me on my cell phone at for a free 90-minute consultation.. Call me today.
