Practicing criminal law is the best thing I've done in a long and varied career.  It gives true meaning to my life and to all things I value greatly: the protection of ordinary people against the enormous power of the government, which can take away our liberty, our freedom and even our lives.  A felony conviction in this country stays with you forever.  You can't vote or own a weapon, if you are convicted of a crime, unless your rights are restored by a Court, after you have completed your sentence.. For the rest of your life you will have problems finding a job, housing, some benefits will be taken away from you, such as Veteran's benefits, for example.  You will have to admit you've been convicted for the rest of your life as well.. With these high stakes, you must have a strong defense and every effort must be made to resolve the case on the best possible terms for you and your future.  This takes time, work, creativity and the willingness to keep going, even when things look dark.  We can never say what a judge or a jury will do in any case--it's illegal and unethical for a lawyer to do so.  Any lawyer who promises you a specific result is simply wrong and unethical.. I have a great team, love the work, as I said, and recognize that we all make mistakes.  We would be pleased to assist you.  Please call for a free consultation.

Firm: The Law Offices of Ty Martinez

Practicing criminal defense in the Los Angeles, Orange County, and Inland Empire areas I represent and defend many good people every single day who are facing tough criminal charges. Why?  Because I know what it is like to be falsely accused.  I know what it is like to be stereotyped and harassed by the police.. Growing up in Southern California, and spending a lot of time at the beach, I was frequently contacted by the police.  Whether I was pulled over in my car, or approached on the boardwalk in San Diego, police officers seemed to want to stop and ask me questions, fishing for evidence of criminal activity.. Fortunately, nothing ever became of those contacts.  However, it did leave me with a lasting impression of police officers, the amount of power they have over us, and how I felt when confronted by them.. I attended Loyola Law School in Los Angeles and was fortunate to receive a full tuition scholarship.  Courses involving criminal procedure, evidence, and constitutional rights immediately appealed to me.  I finished up law school, passed the bar in 1999, and began my career as a criminal defense attorney serving the Inland Empire, Los Angeles, Riverside, and Orange County areas.. Whether your case involves a misdemeanor DUI, or a violent strike felony, I will aggressively attact the prosecution's case in order to achieve the best possible results.  This is achieved by diligently handling your case; thoroughly reviewing your police report; contacting important witnesses; obtaining copies of video and audio statements/ and or surveillance tapes; researching case law that supports your position; and contacting the District Attorney's Office to discuss charges being dropped or reduced.  Ultimately, positive results come from hard work.

Phone: Not Available
Firm: Community Legal Aid SoCal

Ms. Vasquez attained her under-graduate degree from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, B.A., in May 2002 with a double major in English and American Studies.  During her time at USC, she completed a semester of study abroad at the University of Sussex, Brighton, England in the Spring of 2001.. Having been adopted as an infant, Ms. Vasquez’s desire to become a lawyer was inspired by the tremendous sense of gratitude toward the family law attorney who represented her parents through the adoption process. She attended the California Western School of Law, in San Diego, CA, with a concentration in Child, Family & Elder Law.  While there, Ms. Vasquez served as a Volunteer for both the Center for Community Solutions – Domestic Violence Clinic, and the Legal Aid Society of San Diego – Guardianship Clinic, and participated in the Pro Bono Program as a Student Law Clerk for San Diego Family Law Facilitator’s Office. She completed a legal internship with the Law Office of Stanley J. Bacinett, a family law practitioner.  Ms. Vasquez received her J.D. in May 2005 and was admitted to the State Bar of California on December 1, 2005.. A deep-seated desire to work with families initially drew Ms. Vasquez into juvenile dependency law, where she assisted parents in the emotional process of reunifying with their children.  That experience prepared her for family law, where emotions run high and families strive to adjust to life after divorce.. The key drivers of Ms. Vasquez’s approach to serving her clients are compassion, a great love of working with people, and the desire to achieve the best possible legal outcome for the client while preserving important familial relationships.. Ms. Vasquez is a Member of Orange County Bar Association, Family Law Section, and the Orange County Women Lawyers Association.  She and her husband, also an attorney whom she met in law school, have two daughters, and they sponsor a 13 year old boy in Sierra Leone.
