Services
DUI Defense
Our DUI defense service challenges impaired driving charges through evidence analysis, field sobriety test scrutiny, and DMV license protection strategies. With 5,000+ successfully handled cases, we leverage prosecutorial experience to negotiate dismissals or reduced penalties while protecting clients' driving privileges through timely administrative hearings.
Domestic Violence
We defend against domestic violence allegations by challenging evidence credibility, addressing false accusations, and minimizing collateral consequences. Our approach focuses on preventing protective orders, avoiding mandatory counseling requirements, and preserving clients' employment and firearm rights through strategic courtroom advocacy and pre-trial negotiations.
Drug Crimes
Our drug crime defense challenges unlawful search and seizure practices while exploring alternative sentencing options. We specialize in securing Deferred Entry of Judgment program eligibility, reducing felonies to misdemeanors under Proposition 47, and protecting clients from mandatory minimum sentences through detailed analysis of possession versus sales evidence.
Expungement
We help clients clear criminal records through expungement petitions under California Penal Code 1203.4. Our service includes evaluating eligibility for felony-to-misdemeanor reductions, preparing court documentation, and representing clients in hearings to vacate convictions that hinder employment and immigration status.
Violent Crimes
We defend against violent crime charges including assault, robbery, and child abuse allegations. Our strategy focuses on self-defense claims, witness credibility challenges, and forensic evidence analysis to counter prosecution claims while protecting clients from mandatory sentencing enhancements and sex offender registration requirements.
