Torrance Criminal Defense Lawyer - Redondo Beach DUI Attorney

If you are searching for the best Southern California DUI Lawyer, you have succeeded. We have been successfully fighting DUI- driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol and other criminal cases in all of these Los Angeles County Courts for over 20 years.

Our practice is devoted to exclusively Criminal Defense and DUI defense and related DMV Driver's License suspension actions. Our goal as your attorney is very simple. At the conclusion of the case, both you and your attorney should feel confident that no other lawyer could have achieved a better result for you given the particular circumstances of your case.

Our law firm is very different from most law firms. Many lawyers purposely scare their clients in the belief that the client will be more willing to pay exorbitant fees. We try to lower your anxiety level while giving you an honest evaluation of the risks, potential consequences and defenses available to you and by assuring you that we can and will do everything legally and ethically possible to minimize or avoid entirely the potential legal consequences. We will handle your case as if we were representing our best friend. You can always call to discuss your case directly with me. You should never have to wonder and worry about what is going on with your case. We want you to know that your case is being litigated on your behalf with the utmost professionalism and legal expertise. We do not use junior associates, contract attorneys or paralegals- there is no "Team Approach." I will personally handle all aspects of your case.

I have been a privately retained Los Angeles County Criminal Defense Attorney since 1987. During that time, I have represented thousands of people charged with driving under the influence and other criminal offenses, such as driving on a suspended license, hit and run, vehicular manslaughter, possession of a controlled substance for sale, transportation of a controlled substance, domestic violence, grand theft, petty theft, embezzlement, identity theft, fraud, counterfeiting, burglary, robbery, grand theft auto, assault, battery, sexual battery, and mayhem in virtually every court in Los Angeles County. I have also defended persons charged with DUI and other crimes in Orange County, Kern County, Ventura County, Riverside County, San Bernardino County and San Diego County.

The court where your case is filed, the prosecutor who will handle your case, the Judge who will preside over your case and of course, the attorney who will represent you is often critical to the outcome of the case. The policies and procedures of the various courts, Judges and prosecutors often vary wildly from one court to another, not just from one county to another county but sometimes from one courtroom to another in the same courthouse. It is important that your attorney knows the courts and the prosecutors where your case will be prosecuted and that your attorney is known and respected in those courts and by those prosecutors. Judges and prosecutors handle thousands of cases each year and over time, they get to know which attorneys never personally appear for their clients, instead sending "contract attorneys" or who are "Dump Trucks." Those are attorneys who take the client's money, then eagerly urge their client to take the first offer made by the prosecution, good or bad, so they can plead them out and end the case. Naturally, the clients of those attorneys seldom get good results and are often never the wiser. Sometimes they return again later for representation by the same "dump truck" attorney.

We do not work that way. We take pride in having an excellent reputation among judges and prosecutors. If we cannot reach a fair and reasonable plea agreement which is in the client's best interest, we will continue the case until we do have a good plea agreement or we will take the case to a jury trial. Many times, the so-called facts and evidence contained in the police report are inaccurate or just outright lies. Prosecutors tend to rely on the veracity of police reports and chemical tests results as if they are the gospel and make their settlement offers accordingly. Although most people charged with crimes tend to want to avoid a trial if possible, you and your attorney should be committed to going to trial if that is what is necessary. Frankly, we love doing trials and our trial record is outstanding. We want to take your case to trial unless is it clearly not in your best interest.
