Nigel has been outstandingly helpful as he guides me through this difficult process. I would recommend him to any friend or family member. He does an excellent job of explaining the law, your options and helping you feel confident while completing the necessary appointments and requirements. I am absolutely pleased I chose him to represent me .

I strongly recommend Jeff Gold to anyone who is serious about doing the hard work of dealing responsibly with a DUI. He is a hard-nosed, no-nonsense attorney who will not promise you the moon, but lays out the facts of your case and the odds of success clearly and credibly. With Atty. Gold's help, I was able to demonstrate the seriousness of my efforts to the court and obtain a significantly reduced sentence. He was worth every penny. My arrest in March 2022 for DUI (first & only) was among the most terrifying moments of my life. Already dealing with young children and interviewing like mad for a new job, I felt like my life was coming apart at the seams. When I first spoke with Jeff Gold, I had no idea what to expect; visions of me losing my kids, car, or even in prison fluttered about the dark corners of my mind. In our initial conversation, Atty. Gold put me more at ease with the process as it would unfold. After a thorough review of the facts, he indicated that I was unlikely to win a court challenge and should look to mitigating my sentence through honest, visible efforts that could be conveyed to the prosecutor and judge. Agreeing to this course was, I believe, the determining factor in my outcome. Some attorneys promise to fight every case, but fighting also shows hostility and kills goodwill. It's also rather futile when a BAC reading in not in dispute. Attorneys aren't miracle workers; they just construct the best case they can with the facts they have. We set up a program of meetings, therapy, personal and professional attestations to convey both regret and commitment to change. Every week, he called me to review updates to the case, so that as my court date approached I really felt that I knew what to expect. This significantly alleviated my fear. Fortunately, the incident did not involve accident or injury, and I had never been arrested before. Despite a pretty high BAC, my charge was reduced to Wet Reckless. Through therapy and personal effort, I am no longer in a place where I would put myself and others in such danger again. I am going through the process of education and license restriction, and with the help of a little serenity, I will eventually be able to expunge it from my record. Atty. Gold was able to obtain the best possible outcome and for that I am grateful beyond words. But he was able to do so only because I followed through on the program. So I would 100% recommend Jeff Gold to anyone, while at the same time counseling them to commit fully to doing the hard work he demands.

Nigel is class personified. He is the man for the job and I would without hesitation recommend his services 10 times out 10. Nothing but positive things to say about his caring nature and constant updates he provided me with throughout my ordeal. I never once felt uninformed or left in the dark during my time being represented by him. I am beyond pleased with the results he was able to work out for me. A huge sigh of relief all thanks to Nigel and his office. Thank you very much sir!

My case was not an easy case at all. Nigel was very realistic & professional throughout the entire process. He was also very responsive and on top of everything. My case has been closed but he still continues to help me with me with some of the left over paperwork. I would highly recommend him and his company!

Mr.Gold was referred to me so I didn't hesitate to hire him on June 2021 for a dui. He is very professional and impressive on his hard working skills he had me do work to be able to be ready for my court date. Also due to my DACA status he was eager to help me out to the max . He called me for a whole year every week to ask me how i was doing and the work I was doing. That is very impressive there and i appreciate that. Since my court date kept getting pushed until after one year on June 10th 2022 my case got filed and he went in there confident and professional getting my dui lowered down and saving my DACA im so happy and feel like this was a second chance in life seriously. I no longer want to find me in a big problem like this again but I totally recommend Mr.Gold 100 percent.

Hire Jeff Gold! I am eternally grateful for the amazing job he did for me with my first DUI offence. Do not waste any time shopping for attorneys, they’re going to feed you a lot of smooth lines to try and earn your business. Mr. Gold really is, as his name states, the gold standard! Fresh off my arrest for my first DUI on Christmas Eve last year, I was afraid, traumatized and embarrassed; something you may be feeling as you read this review. I knew I needed an attorney right away. I went online and found a few and got a couple of references from friends. They all fed me what I felt was disingenuous BS to be frank. I knew I was potentially facing some very serious consequences, including jail time, countless hours of community service, and huge fines, as my blood alcohol level was over 0.20. My intuition told me that these attorneys really didn’t care about the outcome of something that would gravely affect my life, until I spoke with Mr. Gold. During our first consultation phone call, he spent approximately an hour with me getting to understand the situation I was in as well as answering all of my questions thoroughly. What immediately set Mr. Gold apart from the previous attorneys I interviewed was his offensive approach rather than defensive approach to my case. He made it clear that putting in the work before my arraignment was going to hopefully lay down the path for the best result possible in front of the judge, which we achieved in my case! He has a plan of action that you have to trust and be willing to stick to, which, keep in mind is in your best interest! For my case, his plan included AA meetings daily, meeting with a psychologist and gathering character letters. If you are not willing to put in the work, do not work with Mr. Gold. His demeanor may come off brash but he is merely passionate and direct. Mr. Gold is professional, kind, and communicates well. He will be honest with you as to what you are facing and will prepare you for potential outcomes. He will call you weekly to check in regarding your progress and address any questions you may have. On my court date, I could not have asked for a better result, only a 3 month DUI course, a Mothers Again Drunk Driving presentation, a greatly reduced fine, and most importantly, no jail time or community service. Even more rewarding than the positive out come from court was what I learned about myself through Mr. Gold’s action plan. It gave me an opportunity to redirect where I put my energy and effort in life. It was through that work I was able to uncover some of the contributing factors to my drinking and has given me tools to live a more fulfilled life through sobriety. Mr. Gold’s goal is for you to never be under the influence behind the wheel again, and it is my belief that I will achieve that. I give Mr. Gold my highest recommendation.

My son got his second DUI in December 2021. I was a wreck with the knowledge that he would likely be facing heavy fines and jail time. To make matters worse, his previous DUI had been in early 2019 so he was STILL on summary probation. It quickly became clear that the first attorney my son hired had no strategy for his upcoming hearings in court and even stated that he would not be available for the first appearance at all. My son wisely called a friend who has had three DUIs and suffered no jail time. Based upon his glowing recommendation, my son hired attorney Jeffrey Gold. I could immediately tell we were in much better hands. Attorney Gold had my son doing AA meetings daily and a host of other tasks in preparation for court. He was tough but compassionate and clearly knew what he was doing. The final outcome of my son’s reckoning with justice in the court was extremely generous . I cannot recommend attorney Jeffrey Gold enough for what he did for my son. It felt like a miracle.

If i could give 10 +++ stars I would because 5 stars just doesn't feel like enough emphasis on how much i truly APPRECIATE Mr. Gold and his services. I really am not sure how things would have turned out for me if I had not reached out to him when i did. I was looking at my first time DUI offense for marijuana. Facing 4 charges of driving under influence of marijuana, possession of narcotics, open container, and driving with no license. I was looking at jail time, an enormous fine, 9 month alcohol program, tons of community service hours, probation, etc. When i first called Mr. Gold, I was a complete emotional wreck, had no idea what i was doing or what id gotten myself into. From the start, Mr. Gold was professional, polite, firm, honest, and compassionate. What he did NOT do was over-promise me, sugar-coat my situation, or at at any time made me feel uncomfortable for any reason whatsoever. After our phone call, even though i was still momentarily in that exact situation, i felt like i had taken a huge step forward in the right direction and he most definitely proved me right. Mr. Gold's method is simple, you're facing a consequence your own mistake and bad judgment, put in the work and you will get rewarded for that, you reap what you sow. Be prepared to put in the necessary work, AA/MA meetings every day, you must undergo a personal evaluation, write a character letter and have character letters written of you and of your growth and learning, and all-around genuine desire to turn your life around from the bad decisions you have been making. After my trial, I got 3 of my 4 charges completely dismissed, zero jail time, 3 month program instead of 9, only 5 days of community service required, minimum fine instead of maximum, and only informal probation of 3 years. I can't thank Mr. Gold enough for this opportunity and i really can say that i have found my light at the end of this horrible tunnel ive been going through. I most definitely with all my heart recommend Mr. Gold and his services to anybody who finds themselves in a similar predicament as myself.

Jeff Gold went above & beyond to make sure I was properly prepared during one of the most stressful ordeals of my adult life. He devised actionable items to not only prepare me for my court appearance but to begin taking ownership of my mistake and to ensure it never happens again. He generously offered his time and resources to turn a very stressful event into one that I've personally grown from. Through his guidance, Mr. Gold got me a very lenient and favorable outcome in court. I highly recommend Mr. Gold!

Hiring Jeff Gold was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. This last year, in December 2021, I got a second DUI while I was still on probation for a first DUI in 2019. I hit three cars and a storefront on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood and could have easily killed someone. Obviously, I did some quick research and discovered that the penalties would likely include significant jail time and a hefty fine at the very least for this second DUI. Jeff Gold, my second attorney, was both tough and brilliant. He directed me to do two online AA meetings per day, gather multiple character references, and volunteer to wearing an alcohol detecting ankle bracelet from the moment I hired him until our second court appearance some three months later. At that appearance, the judge ruling on my case told me he had read EVERY document I had submitted and said he was both moved and impressed. Subsequently, he delivered me a miracle: a $225 fine, thirty additional AA meetings, and the mandatory DUI classes once a week. All the sleepless nights I had endured were over! Jeff Gold is unquestionably a lifesaver…and far superior to my first attorney.

Nigel took care of me from the start and was incredibly understanding of all my situations. I can’t stress enough how amazing my experience was with this company. They really went above and beyond all of my expectations during my first (and last!) experience. He helped me out tremendously. If you need an amazing human for a lawyer look no further!

I'm writing this in appreciation. I became involved in an ongoing and persistent neighborhood situation. I was told to just wait. Eight months later I received a notice to appear in one weeks time. I contacted Mr. Jeffrey Gold, Attorney At Law. Mr. Gold explained my options and a strategy to follow. With a plan and information in hand, I fully undertook my part in this strategy. Mr. Gold appeared in my place while I continued to fulfill my part. With Mr. Gold's attention to detail, a very fair offer was worked out for me. A Pre-Plea Diversion program of six months time, 15 days community service and participation in Alcoholics Anonymous. The court showed a high degree of trust in me to meet the goals of my diversion program. I attend many more A.A. meetings than I am required to. I thank Mr. Gold for the encouragement. It is a new way to live. A Recovering Alcoholic
