Dionne Choyce

Firm: The Choyce Law Firm
1500 Webster Street , Fairfield , California 94533
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense, Motor Vehicle Accidents, Traffic Violations, Personal Injury
Dionne E. Choyce has acquired a great reputation for being a passionate and hardworking trial attorney. His courtroom development began at the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law, where he helped lead the McGeorge trial competition team to a Regional Championship in the American Trial Lawyers Association Competition (ATLA). After graduating from law school, Mr. Choyce went to work for the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office (Oakland, CA), where he gained extensive courtroom experience prosecuting all phases of criminal cases, including jury trials, felony preliminary hearings, juvenile felony trials, as well as misdemeanor and felony law and motion hearings. Mr. Choyce has handled hundreds of traffic and DUI cases, and has mastered the art of skillful negotiation and plea-bargaining in this area, which allow his clients to receive the best possible outcome. As a former prosecutor in one of California’s toughest jurisdictions, Mr. Choyce understands how to evaluate a criminal trial case, and will vigorously represent his clients to possibly get criminal charges reduced or dismissed. With respect to personal injury clients, because Mr. Choyce has tried dozens of trials before judges and juries, he will not hesitate to seek justice by way of a jury trial when insurance companies fail to adequately compensate those injured in serious accidents.  Mr. Choyce received his undergraduate degree in English (with honors) from Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia. He then went on to receive his graduate degree from Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He earned his law degree from the University of Pacific, McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento, California. Mr. Choyce is a member of the Charles Houston Bar Association, the Wiley E. Manuel Bar Association, the Sacramento Consumer Attorneys, and the Sacramento County Bar Association. In his free time,  Mr.Choyce enjoys reading, going to church, and spending quality time with his family.

My goal has always been to provide affordable and reliable legal representation to those who need it the most.

Bruce Flynn

Practice Areas: Criminal Defense, Personal Injury, Car Accident, Slip and Fall
I recently left the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office where I worked as a prosecutor for 25 years.  I have extensive jury trial experience in all areas of criminal law including murder, robbery, burglary, sexual assault, domestic violence, gang related crimes, drugs and driving under the influence.  For the last several years I served as a senior managment attorney supervising a branch office and more recently, the sexual asault and family violence prosecution teams.  As a former prosecutor, I have unique insight as to how prosecutors think and and how they value cases.  I know what defenses work and how to successfully use tthose defenses to help my clients accused of a crime.  I am ready to fight as hard for my clients as I did in my previous career.  I am well known in the legal community and enjoy an excellent reputation for being a highly skilled advocate.  I look forward to using my skills to help my clients with their legal problems here in Solano County and the greater Bay Area.. I live in the City of Vacaville with my wife and two girls.  We have lived in Solano County since the year 2000 and very much enjoy being a part of the Vacaville community.  I am an avid sports fan and enjoy playing one of my many guitars in my limited spare time.
