P. Jeffrey Voll

Firm: Law Offices of Jeff Voll
959 E. Colorado Blvd. , Pasadena , California 91106
Practice Areas: Criminal Defense, DUI & DWI, Violent Crime
Jeff Voll is a Los Angeles criminal defense attorney who only practices criminal defense law. He has never been employed as a prosecutor and he has certainly never been a cop. The Criminal Defense Law Firm of Jeff Voll has defended hundreds of clients (peace officers included) accused of violating the criminal laws of California. He offers experienced and aggressive criminal defense representation in all areas of criminal defense law throughout the Los Angeles County Courts.. If you find a criminal defense attorney who has better results than what's listed on my Results Page then hire them and not me.. If you take any information from these pages as truth please understand and believe that I was arrested (kidnapped by the Federal Government) on June 16, 2017, handcuffed (assault and battered), transported (victim of human trafficking) across State lines from California to Nevada and held against my will (falsely imprisoned) by The Department of Homeland Security, The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and The United States Attorney's Office in Las Vegas, Nevada. I was intentionally and falsely “charged” with violating the Racketeering and Corruption Act (RICO) and faced a Life in Prison sentence based on United States Government created and sponsored lies and fabrications.. I am a free man today and will always be a free man/attorney until the day I die. If I can beat my own Life in Prison case, you can certainly be assured that no one will fight harder for your freedom against any charges levied against you with me as your criminal defense attorney. The Government assumed I would be a rat. They assumed I would corroborate the Government created falsities mimicked by other weaker men to fast track their way out of jail. The Government was wrong. I was placed in the SHU (secured housing unit) at Metropolitan Detention Center for 6 days before being trafficked to the Nevada Southern Detention Center in Pahrump, Nevada. The Government thought that because I was a licensed Attorney, that they would turn me into a Chivato. I held fast and strong and gave Uncle Sam, his lying "special agents," and Federal prosecutors who criminally conspired to further their intentionally false narrative the finger while telling my attorney that I am Ready for Jury Trial. No deals. No signing for my freedom.. Over 21 years successfully defending the rights of the accused.. And, I am THE ONLY California Criminal Defense attorney who can truthfully state that I was successful in defending and achieving OVER 100 criminal cases Completely Dismissed in one 12 month period..

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.

Mr. Iocona holds an Avvo-Rating of "Superb" or "10/10" and OC Metro magazine listed him as one of the area's "Top-Rated DUI Attorneys in Orange County, California". Mr. Iocona has a reputation for being a zealous advocate and a seasoned trial attorney and one of his case was even featured in an article that was published in the OC Weekly in 2016: "OC Judge Slams Prosecutor for Misconduct, Prosecutor Gets Promoted by DA Tony Rackauckus". This article is part of a lengthy series of articles by Scott Moxley of the OC Weekly regarding what has become known as the "Orange County Snitch Scandal". The article addresses the extent of Prosecutorial Misconduct in Orange County stating that "Prosecutorial cheating apparently extends to relatively minor trials, too.", which Mr. Iocona exposed in 2015 during the trial of The People of the State of California vs. Sandra Goelman.. In 2015, Mr. Iocona was also selected as a "Superior DUI Attorney" by The National Advocacy for DUI Defense (NAFDD). That same year, he was also selected for inclusion in the 2015 list of the "Nation’s Top One Percent", which is published by the National Association of Distinguished Counsel (NADC).. In 2017, Mr. Iocona was selected into the list of America's Top 100 Criminal Defense Attorneys based on his work on Criminal Defense cases. This designation is awarded to only a select few of each jurisdiction's best criminal defense attorneys.. Peter F. Iocona began his career with the Law Office of Barry T. Simons in 2000. From 2003 to 2016, Mr. Iocona was a Contributing Editor to the two volume treatise: "California Drunk Driving Law", often considered the "Bible of Drunk Driving Law" in the State of California. Mr. Iocona would serve as the Lead Trial Attorney for the firm's DUI cases and was also the Managing Attorney of that firm from 2012 to 2016..

Mr. Iocona has been certified under the standards set forth by the NHTSA (the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) as an "SFST Administrator" and as an "SFST Instructor".. Mr. Iocona has received extensive training and instruction in the area of DUI Drugs, a new arena in DUI defense in light of the increasing rate of those being charged with DUI Drugs after consuming their prescription medications. Attorney Peter F. Iocona has received "Drug Recognition Expert" instruction and served as an “Expert Panelist” for a seminar sponsored by the O.C. (Orange County) Crime Laboratory and the California Association of Toxicologists, which was entitled: DUI Drugs, Says Who?. Attorney Peter F. Iocona is the Owner of The Law Office of Peter F. Iocona, or Peter F. Iocona, Attorney at Law, which focuses on DUI Defense, and a Founding Member, Owner, CFO, and Lead Trial Attorney for Driving Under the Influence (DUI) cases for The SoCal Law Network, which he opened in 2016 with his two law partners, Alan Castillo and Marlo Cordero. The SoCal Law Network would later be joined by Kenneth Norelli, an experienced criminal defense trial attorney with a history of successful verdicts in cases involving murder; violent sexual crimes, including rape; felony firearms cases; gang-related enhancements, juvenile cases and juvenile dependency matters. Collectively, the Criminal Defense Attorneys of The SoCal Law Network have been voted as Orange County's "Best" or "Top-Rated" Criminal Defense Attorneys.. While Mr. Iocona focuses on handling DUI cases in Orange County, he and the Criminal Defense Attorneys of The SoCal Law Network handle some of the most complicated Criminal Defense Cases in Orange County, such as: Child Molestation, or Committing Lewd Acts on a Child or Minor; Murder, Homicide, Voluntary Manslaughter, Involuntary Manslaughter; Sex Crimes, such as Sexual Assault or Rape; Statutory Rape; or Spousal Rape; Creating, Distributing, or Possessing Child Pornography; and Solicitation of a Minor; Prostitution, Pimping and Pandering, Human Trafficking or Solicitation of Prostitution; Domestic Violence, Assault and Battery, Assault With a Deadly Weapon, and Kidnapping; White Collar Crimes, Fraud, Grand Theft Embezzlement, Petty Theft Embezzlement, and Forgery; DUI, DUI Drugs, DUI With Injury, DUI With Great Bodily Injury, DUI Manslaughter, Watson Murder; Theft, Robbery, Burglary, Carjacking, Shoplifting and/or Petty Theft, Grand Theft, and Grand Theft Auto (GTA); Possession of Illegal Firearm, Carrying a Loaded Firearm in Public, Felon in Possession of Firearm, Brandishing a Weapon; Felony Criminal or Terroristic Threats, Misdemeanor Criminal or Terroristic Threats; Drug Possession, Drug Possession With Intent to Distribute; Internet/Online Fraud, Phishing or Identity Theft, Hacking; Felony Vandalism, Misdemeanor Vandalism; Felony & Misdemeanor Juvenile Charges; Expungements and Motions to Reduce..

Practice Areas: Assault & Battery, Criminal Defense, Personal Injury, DUI & DWI
For nearly 30 years, I have been a lawyer, law instructor and continuing legal education provider in Alameda County.. Since graduating from Hastings College of the Law, at University of California in San Francisco in 1980, I have worked in the courts of Alameda County. While still in law school, I started my career as clerk in the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office in 1979. The Office honored me by hiring me as Deputy District Attorney in 1981.. Since 1987, for more than twenty years, I have also enjoyed success in private practice, representing individuals, and protecting their Constitutional rights. I have handled thousands of cases on every level and tried over fifty jury trials to verdict.  As a practicing attorney, I am also a businessperson. I know what it means to meet a payroll, sign the front of the checks, and pay taxes. My ties to Oakland and Alameda County run deep, and I have spent much of my life trying to improve our community.. In college I participated in the University’s student discipline court. In law school I was active in moot court competition and in the Hastings College of Advocacy, a continuing legal education program for practicing litigators. As an attorney, I have judged moot court competitions at UC Hastings College of Law, and coached moot court teams at Logan High School in Union City.. My experience as a prosecutor and as a private practitioner enables me to understand both sides of an issue and to use that understanding for the benefit of my clients.  I understand the importance of fair and effective law enforcement; I also know that constitutional rights are critical, and believe these rights must be protected for the community to remain strong.. I have lived and worked in Alameda County for nearly thirty years. I am a citizen, and a business owner. My wife is a physician at Kaiser Hospital, in Oakland. My sister and her husband live in Piedmont and are both attorneys, each practicing in Alameda County. My uncle, a retired college professor and my aunt live in Berkeley. My uncle served on the Alameda County Grand Jury.

Since 1992 I've been helping those arrested for DUI's.  I fight for my clients in Court and at DMV to try and get the best results possible.  I've always stood up for those in need and fought to protect their Constitutional Rights.. A DUI arrest can happen to anyone who drinks or takes legal or non-legal drugs, and then operates a vehicle. While most of us don’t intend to go out and drive under the influence, sometimes it does happen. In most cases, we had that one last drink that barely put us at or over the legal .08% limit. When we’ve have had too much, lack of judgment can kick in and the result might be what we never expected to happen – a DUI arrest. Sometimes we get that emergency call and decide to drive. We might have pulled over to sober up, but still got charged with a DUI. Whatever the situation is, we did something that we wish we could take back, and now we have no choice but to deal with the consequences.. I help defend people who made a judgment error. We are all humans, and we all make mistakes. Most of my clients are good people who are facing criminal prosecution and loss of driving privileges for the first time in their lives. There are so many questions and unknowns in a situation like this. It is a terrifying experience, and for many causes more stress than they’ve ever encountered.

Katherine Schwinghammer

Firm: Katherine Schwinghammer, Attorney at Law
P.O. Box 31 , Grover Beach , California 93483
Practice Areas: DUI & DWI
I represent people. From 2006 until 2020, the only type of cases I have taken are criminal defense cases, and most of those DUI defense cases. (As of 2020 I have expanded my practice areas to include Juvenile Dependency as well as criminal/DUI defense cases.). I have extensive experience handling DUI/Driving Under the Influence/Driving with a BAC of 0.08% or Above, and many other types of criminal cases. For the first several years that I was licensed as an attorney I worked as a Deputy Public Defender, handling a great number of cases and learning a lot as I practiced.. I opened my own law practice in 2009, to put my knowledge and skills and talent to work for you, the people who hire me.. I have actual trial experience, trying DUI cases and other criminal cases and traffic offenses.  There are a lot of attorneys in California who want to represent you on your criminal or DUI case, but some of those attorneys have never even tried a single case. Some have only tried cases in their former careers as prosecutors, and might not even be used to trying to find flaws in the prosecution's case. As a criminal defense lawyer who has spent my whole career representing people (not the prosecution) I have experience and skills that I will put to work for you. If you might consider taking your case all the way to trial, ask potential lawyers what their "stats" are. Some attorneys might tell you they don't keep track, but my guess is, if they had a track record they were proud of, they might be more likely to.. If you're facing criminal charges there's a strong chance you might be feeling scared and confused -- I can help you. I have the experience, knowledge, and desire to fight for you. I'll provide you with an aggressive defense, communicate with you to make sure you understand what's happening on your case, and I'll work hard to minimize the disruption on your life. I will explain things to you myself, and I will be personally available to you as long as your case lasts. These are promises I make to each and every person I represent.. Whether you retain me to represent you or not, I hope that you obtain the very best possible result for the circumstances you are in.
