Sally was extremely motivated and determined to get the best outcome from my 4 misdemeanors from start to finish. During my court process Mrs.Vecchiarelli kept in contact routinely and explained each step of the way thoroughly, and attended all court dates on time. While the maximum punishment for me could have been around 2 years in jail, Sally got 3/4 misdemeanors dismissed, and house arrest for 90 days on the 1 that we couldn’t. That being said, she arranged everything for house arrest for me, providing me with all the details. She will go above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to Criminal Defense attorneys.

Ms Sally Vecchiarelli has expert knowledge of California criminal law. Fresno prosecutors know her well; her professional dealings with them and other court personnel have earned their respect.

I was her client. A few days after I was booked and released on bail, Ms Vecchiarelli reviewed my situation with me and outlined my options. I sensed real empathy, not only for me but for anyone bewildered by the court system. Her fee was reasonable. Ms Vecchiarelli guided my wife and me through three court appearances. She was available, even on weekends, when I needed to talk out my fears. The outcome of my case, nine weeks later, was better than I dared hope.

My wife's abuser has been threatening her and harassing her with court date after court date. When I stood up to him after he cussed out and threatened my wife he decided to try to put a civil harassment restraining order on me. He didn't even serve me properly. I'm in the Navy and stationed in San Diego and wasnt able to attend the court date due to being underway. Justin Vecchiarelli stepped up for me and represented me in my place. He was able to get the case dropped and not just moved to when I could be back. Part of the reason is that my wife's abuser didn't even show up to court that day. Justin worked with me and sent him a Cease and Desist letter and even though the abuser is saying he's going to take me back for another restraining order, I'm confident that Justin Vecchiarelli will be able to represent me and defend me against this guy's continuing abusive harrassment.

Mr. and Mrs. Vecchiarelli were very very professional and thorough! I was initially referred to a firm who in my honest opinion had great attorneys and with all due respect, Mrs. Sally and Mr. Justin were on different stratospheres. As this was my first time ever needing an attorney, I learned a lot. Anyone can become qualified to do anything, there's a textbook way to do all things that can become our jobs. When you are passionate about something, it shows in your work, as to you it is not work you are doing what you love. When you love what you do, you wont work a day in your life. In my time as a client I got the impression that at The Proper Defense they love what they do, they're diligent, outstanding and HIGHLY recommended.

Hiring an Attorney is such an intimidating experience all in itself, however Sally 100% put me at ease within the first 5 minutes of my consultation.. She took her time and went over the in and outs of my case without at anytime making me feel rushed.. the day of my hearing, she came in with a full force approach and did not for once second back down against the other attorney!.. my case ended up getting thrown out!.. to see her skills in action is truly amazing.. I would 100% recommend her.. I hope not, but if I were to need an attorney again she would 100% be the one!!

Sally did the necessary work to get my case thrown out court! I would definitely recommend her to anyone facing criminal charges. Thank you again Sally!
