When my client came to me, he was absolutely certain he was going to lose his driver’s license. He had received notice of a DMV administrative hearing that, if not handled properly, would result in a suspension that could upend his job, his family responsibilities, and his independence. He felt like the cards were stacked against him. But I knew there was more to the story—and more we could do. I immediately got to work, digging into the evidence, identifying key procedural and factual issues, and building a strategic defense tailored to the DMV’s administrative process. At the hearing, I presented a focused, fact-based argument that clearly demonstrated why my client’s license should not be suspended. And we won. The DMV dismissed the suspension, and my client walked out with his license—and his peace of mind—fully intact. This wasn’t just a legal win. It was a life-changing outcome for someone who genuinely believed he had no chance. It’s moments like these that remind me why I fight so hard for every client: because no one should face the system alone, especially when everything is on the line.

My client came to me facing a serious DUI charge that carried devastating consequences: potential felony conviction, mandatory installation of an ignition interlock device, and the suspension of both his California and Texas driver’s licenses. He was worried—and rightfully so. His career, ability to travel, and everyday freedom were all on the line. From the outset, I knew we had to take an aggressive but smart approach. I thoroughly reviewed the evidence, challenged weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, and negotiated strategically with the DA—keeping both states’ DMV consequences in mind every step of the way. In the end, we got the DUI charge reduced to a misdemeanor. More importantly: No ignition interlock device was required No suspension of his California or Texas licenses No felony conviction on his record This case is a prime example of how knowing both the law and the system can make all the difference. My client walked away with a second chance—and full driving privileges in two states—because he didn’t give up, and because we fought hard to protect his future.

When my client was arrested, he was terrified—and for good reason. He was being held without bail, accused of driving without a license or insurance, and allegedly causing injuries to three people, including a young child. To make matters worse, he was not legally allowed to be in the United States, and the looming threat of immediate deportation hung over every moment he spent behind bars. The stakes couldn’t have been higher. His family was in crisis. His young daughter was left without her father. And he believed he might never see home again. But at the preliminary hearing, we changed everything. Through meticulous preparation and a focused defense, I was able to get the judge to release my client from custody. He walked out of that courtroom a free man—not only avoiding immediate deportation, but never having to return to jail for this case. Now, he’s back home with his daughter, rebuilding his life and looking ahead with hope instead of fear. This case is a powerful reminder that no matter how tough the charges or how complex the circumstances, everyone deserves a strong defense and a chance at justice. I’m proud we fought hard—and won big—for this client and his family.

When my client came to me, he was already in a difficult position—facing his third DUI, this time involving both marijuana and alcohol, with the added complication of a missed court appearance that resulted in a bench warrant for his arrest. But we didn’t back down. I immediately moved to recall the bench warrant, and successfully cleared that first major hurdle. From there, I shifted focus to the science: I obtained and thoroughly reviewed all prosecution discovery, including the blood test analysis conducted by law enforcement. What I found in the toxicology and procedural details raised serious concerns—enough that I brought those findings directly to the attention of the District Attorney’s Office. The result?  The DUI charge was dismissed.  No jail time.  No probation.  No new DUI prior on his record. My client went from preparing for the worst—more probation, possible incarceration, and a third strike on his driving record—to walking away with a clean slate and his freedom intact. This case proves once again that a strong defense doesn’t just fight charges—it scrutinizes the evidence, challenges assumptions, and delivers results.

My client was facing extremely serious charges—accused of stealing vehicles and running a chop shop as part of an alleged organized ring. He was charged alongside three co-defendants, and to make matters worse, each of them was pointing fingers at him in a desperate attempt to cut their own deals and avoid jail. It looked like the odds were stacked against him. But we didn’t flinch. I conducted a meticulous review of the prosecution’s case, combing through every shred of discovery, witness statements, and investigative reports. What we uncovered were critical weaknesses in the evidence tying my client to the alleged conspiracy—gaps the prosecution couldn’t close. Rather than let my client take the fall for someone else’s actions, we exposed those flaws head-on. The result? Case dismissed. While the co-defendants ended up in jail and prison, my client walked out of court a free man, with no conviction, no probation, and his record intact. Today, he’s back to living his life, working, and chasing his passions—with this case behind him for good. In a case where loyalty was scarce and pressure was high, our strategy and commitment to the truth made all the difference.

My client’s home was raided by law enforcement under the authority of a search warrant targeting illegal firearms and narcotics. The search uncovered exactly what they were looking for—and more. In addition to the alleged contraband, police seized nearly $80,000 in cash found in the home. The situation looked grim. My client was staring down the barrel of serious felony charges and the potential permanent loss of a substantial amount of money. But that’s when we got to work. Through strategic negotiation, careful case analysis, and a firm understanding of search and seizure law, I was able to: Get my client’s charges reduced to personal use only, avoiding more serious distribution-level consequences Secure the return of $40,000 of the seized funds—money that would have otherwise been lost under asset forfeiture Thanks to this result, my client was able to avoid the life-altering weight of a major felony conviction and reclaim a significant portion of his financial security. He’s relieved, rebuilding, and extremely grateful that we turned what could have been a devastating outcome into a second chance.

When my client and his family came to me, they were in a deeply stressful and uncertain position. Multiple bank accounts had been frozen, totaling $250,000, and they were facing the threat of civil and criminal forfeiture of their rental properties, which had allegedly been linked to marijuana grow operations. To make matters worse, my client had previously been investigated and arrested in a separate marijuana case—putting a target on his back and making it easy for law enforcement to assume the worst. But assumptions are not evidence—and I knew the truth needed to come to light. Through extensive investigation and careful review of the facts, I discovered that my client’s tenants—not my client—were responsible for the marijuana grows, and that he had no knowledge of the illegal activity taking place on his rental properties. I immediately took action: Initiated eviction proceedings against the tenants for unlawful use of the premises Presented compelling evidence to both the City Attorney’s Office and the District Attorney’s Office, showing my client’s lack of involvement Challenged the seizure of funds and properties under both civil and criminal law frameworks The outcome?  $250,000 returned to my client and his family  No criminal charges filed  No forfeiture of rental properties  My client is back in business, renting his properties lawfully and free of any further investigation This case was a textbook example of how aggressive defense, sharp investigation, and early intervention can turn a near disaster into a total win. My client walked away with his freedom, his finances, and his reputation intact.

My client was facing the fight of his life—literally. He had been charged with attempted murder, and the District Attorney was aggressively pursuing a conviction that could have landed him in prison for life. From the outset, the case looked grim. The alleged “victim” had been shot, and my client was the one holding the gun. But we knew there was more to the story—and the law was on our side. Through meticulous investigation and a deep understanding of California’s self-defense laws, my defense team and I began to uncover the truth. We located and reviewed surveillance video footage from a nearby property, which captured the moments leading up to the incident. The raw footage was unclear, but we didn’t stop there. We brought in a digital forensic expert, who enhanced the video and audio with extraordinary precision. What that enhanced footage revealed was critical: The so-called “victim” was armed with a firearm He was seen aggressively charging at my client, provoking a confrontation After the shooting, the attacker’s firearm is clearly visible on the ground—undeniable proof that my client acted in lawful self-defense With this new evidence, we were able to negotiate a dramatic reduction of charges. Instead of spending decades—or life—in prison, my client walked away from a near-certain conviction with his freedom intact. This case is a powerful reminder of what’s at stake in serious criminal cases—and how skilled legal strategy, thorough investigation, and expert collaboration can literally change a life.
