I couldn't be happier with my experience working with Sanaz. This was my first time working with a lawyer and dealing with a lawsuit, and Sanaz clearly and efficiently helped me navigate the issue I was facing. I went to Sanaz regarding a wage garnishment issue over old student debt. She was always quick to respond, clear in her guidance, and incredibly kind throughout the process. She negotiated my debt swiftly and successfully, and was able to ensure I paid a fair price that I was happy with. I would confidently recommend Sanaz to anyone dealing with wage garnishment issues and debt negotiation. 10/10 experience.

In November of 2021, after making the mistake of driving under the influence, I knew I'd require legal assistance to see me through the challenges ahead and am quite pleased to have retained the services of Gold & Witham. Even during the consultation with Jeff, I knew I'd made the right choice. He treated me with respect and saw that I was a person who made an error in judgement and not just "another case." He walked me through each step, laid out exactly the strategy based on my circumstances, and advised me what the potential and realistic outcomes could be. Jeff took the time to work with me to ensure I was doing MY part to help bring the situation to a satisfactory end. He was easily accessible for our weekly check in calls, progress reviews, and overall status. Be prepared to work and do your part too. It felt empowering to stand up for a mistake knowing I had this firm and Jeff behind me. At the court date, he presented the case and were met with excellent results that surpassed my expectations. To anyone who may be in need of a great lawyer and firm during a very challenging time, I would highly recommend Gold & Witham.

I would definitely recommend attorney Jeff Gold to anyone that is being charged for a DUI. Mr. Jeff is an amazing attorney. He got my DUI charges dropped and was there for me every step of the way. Not only did he call to check on me every week and answer all my questions, he also became somewhat of a mentor to me and was always there when I needed him. I remember being so lost and stressed out about the thought of getting a DUI and as soon as I called and spoke with Mr. Jeff, he spent about an hour explaining everything in detail. This really helped put me at ease knowing that he would start working on my case right away. He reassured me not to worry because that’s what I was hiring him for and as long as we stuck to the plan things would work out, and that's exactly what happened. Attorney Jeff Gold really did what he said he was going to do and I am very happy with his services.

If you've happened upon this firm and are still looking, you can stop your search. You won't find any finer attorneys in California. I know that's a bold statement, but I can back it up. I contacted Nigel Witham after getting my second DUI. On one of the lowest days of my life, he not only put me at ease, but he gave me hope. From day one, he was there for me, answering every question and quelling every fear. To say he was responsive would be an understatement. And his knowledge of the law is expansive. Throughout the entire process, from the incident to the court date (in my case, 6 months or so), he was there at every turn, cheering on my efforts and encouraging me on my path. My father is an attorney, and I grew up watching him litigate in court and talk with clients, prosecutors, and judges. Like him, Nigel seems born for the law. His demeanor, presence, and voice are as soothing as they are professional. I cannot stress enough just how excellent he is. And even though I didn't get the opportunity to meet Mr. Gold, I have no doubt whatsoever that anyone who practices law with Nigel Witham is an accomplished and wonderful attorney. I owe Nigel more than I can even articulate. How can you put a price on peace of mind? It's actually one of the things in life that are truly priceless. At least, I thought so -- until I met Nigel. That may sound hyperbolic, but I assure you, it is absolutely not. If you're dealing with a DUI, do yourself a favor and just give Gold & Witham a call. It's a simple thing to take a leap of faith. Most of the time in life, those leaps are iffy, at best. But I'm here to tell you that I write this review as a free man, largely because I took that leap and called Nigel. Take the leap with Gold & Witham. You won't regret it.

My entire 6 month experience with Mr. Gold was eye opening, educational and overall positive. My first dui and I was terrified and disappointed; however I was recommended to Mr. Gold by a friend and I'm glad he was the one to represent me throughout this. One thing I loved about Mr. Gold was his HONESTY. He laid everything on the table, from do's and dont's as well as what CAN happen and what he WILL make happen. Having Mr. Gold as my attorney throughout my case was worth every penny. My recommendation when working with Mr. Gold is stay dedicated, determined, consistent follow up/ update because he wants you to be dedicated. He doesn't want your money, HE WANTS CHANGE AND COMMITMENT!! Thank you Mr. Gold.

Complete patience and amazing communication. When I was first arrested for my DUI and while being in the military I thought everything was over. I was involved in a single car accident totaling my car with a BAC of 0.17. But then when I reached out to Jeff Gold he advised me of an option I could be eligible for which was military diversion. He informed me it would take a large amount of effort but his weekly calls to go over everything that had happened over the week helped greatly. He had me attending AA Meetings everyday, see a psychologist, and have people involved with my life write character letters. Through doing all of this I not only succeeded in obtaining military division but learned so much more about myself. Without Jeff Gold, and his 30 years of experience and courtroom knowledge, I believe I wouldn’t have been granted military diversion or be the better man I have now slowly started to become.

I went through probably the worst experiences in my life & through it all I knew I had the best legal counsel I could have. The amount of work and effort jeff & his team took too make sure I was in the best position possible for one of the worst positions that I could be in. He helped me take accountability right away and genuinely show my true character as too show the court this was more than just what was written on paper. If you are searching for a dui lawyer then look no further jeff and his team of associates is your move.

If you can commit to complete assigned tasks, follow the strategies, and believe in end results, definitely go to “Gold& Witham Attorney at Law.”we had very satisfied result… case dismissed in 6 months….

I hired the Bereliani Law Firm after my original Ch. 13 bankruptcy attorney was disbarred in the middle of my plan and during a rather tricky situation. She and her team stepped right in and were able to bring the matter to a close with no issues. They were very professional and responsive, much more responsive than my initial attorney had been, so much so that I was soon wishing I had hired Sanaz in the first place. Do yourself a favor, save the time and hire these guys first.

Last year I made an inexcusable decision to drink and drive. I was arrested for my 2nd DUI in a very stern county. I immediately knew I had to get an attorney but who? How? Where do I start? Time was of the essence and I knew I couldn't physically meet anyone due to COVID. Feeling helpless and in despair, I found Mr. Gold. After reaching out, he called me back right away and spent almost an hour with me going over my case and and supplying me with exactly what I needed, honesty and reassurance. Jeff tasked me with attending AA meetings, enrolling in the SCRAM monitoring program, and an evaluation from a great doctor. His weekly (and sometimes multiple times a week) check ins with me kept me in the know about my case and at ease that I was on the right track. I was in deep water having a high BAC in a very strict county and needless to say, I was absolutely terrified. Jeff held me accountable and the work paid off. Not only did I get a favorable outcome that I am beyond grateful for, I'm proud to say I am still sober, working a program, and doing better than ever. It wasn't easy but it was worth it. Jeff is a lawyer who truly cares about your progress and growth as a person. I couldn't imagine having anyone else represent me and I am incredibly thankful for having Jeff Gold on my side through all this. Thank you for everything Jeff, truly.

Nigel Whitman is the best lawyer in Southern California. I was dealing with my 4th DUI and scared to know what was going to happen to me. With his words and wisdom, he told me to start doing things before my court date to show the court things I started. Having the military service on my side I was able to go to court in confidence and get no jail time and a great reference to take care of my drinking problem. Now I am sober and living the best life. Thank you Nigel. You are truly a blessing.

Not sure how to start this but if you need someone to represent you or just not sure on how to take on a case on your own. I recommend you come to these guys. I was represented by Nigel Witham for my court case and it was such a breeze. I found Nigel while waiting in court and heard him represent someone and I knew I wanted him to represent me. This guy took his time to express who he was representing and was also willing to negotiate a better deal for his client( client not present too). Once I saw that I knew I wanted someone like that on my team. All the other attorneys seemed to just want to get in and out, I might be wrong but that’s what I saw. I got Nigel’s business card and was pleased to know that his prices were more than affordable but also willing to do a payment plan with me if needed. He took care of all my upcoming court days and worked me in getting the best possible deal, after a couple months I only had to be present 1 day and that was just to agree on the plea deal. Amazing don’t try to handle it on your own it’s time consuming and stressful to say the lease. Once you speak with Nigel I’m sure you’ll Want him to represent you. Thank you guys I definitely couldn’t of done it without you.
