Meike is the best! She's intelligent, knowledgeable and compassionate. We hired Mieke to represent my brother who found himself charged in a criminal matter. We were beside ourselves, worrying about the outcome. We had retained a prior attorney who we felt did was not representing him properly, and would have landed him in prison. When Mieke substituted in to the case, she was able to review everything with a fresh perspective and was able to negotiate the charges down to a misdemeanor and summary probation. We are so grateful to Mieke for her dedication and experience, she comforted us and held our hand through the entire ordeal. I wholeheartedly recommend Mieke to anyone who needs legal representation, she is highly experienced, honest, and actually cares about her clients and their families.

Mieke didn't sugar coat anything, but successfully got the outcome we wanted. She told me what I exactly had to do and worked her magic in the courtroom. She has a reaching network of resources and relationships with court staff. If she didn't, she tried to build one every step of the way. I did not worry as she was present for every court date. Mieke has a positive attitude and set my mind at ease. I had a great feeling when we first spoke and I would definitely use her again.

Mieke ter Poorten is an incredibly smart and savvy lawyer. She knows EVERYTHING about the court system. Mieke worked with me to get my DUI charge reduced to reckless driving. She made the entire process as painless and simple as a DUI case could be. She worked with the DMV to get my case set aside and my license wasn't even suspended, which is very rare. She was amazing on all fronts. We had multiple hearings at the DMV and she showed up every time ready to defend me. She knew all the facts about my case and was extremely helpful and professional. She has great relationships with the DMV and the DA. I will always be recommending her to all my friends if you are ever in need of her services. Truly an amazing lawyer and an even nicer person. Hire her!

Mieke is a genuine attorney, honest, and very hardworking. I sought her help after getting into quite a bit of trouble, it was twice over the last 3 years. Most recently, I had 3 criminal charges against me and I was facing major prison time. The case was very complex and the prosecution was unwilling to make any agreement other than just putting me away. They did not consider my special circumstance, and the evidence they had against me was overwhelming. It looked like a 1/100 chance of me not going to prison. Mieke, however, fought hard, and she never gave up. Her legal strategy was very well thought out. It was a very long battle, where there seemed to be no win in sight. But her patience, determination, and perseverance was like none other. She really went to bat for me, and in the end we were able to come to a deal that did not include prison time. Her care for her clients is unmatched. I am forever grateful.

As a psychologist, I have had the pleasure of working with Mieke ter Poorten on a few complex cases and the experience has always been exemplary. She is one of the most most ethical and compassionate attorneys I have every had the opportunity of working with in my career. She advocates for her clients in ways that are above and beyond any expectation.

Mieke showed compassion to not only me but my wife as well from the very beginning. She helped get me out of jail and got all 16 of my charges dismissed by filing motions most lawyers wouldn't have taken the time to do. I felt from day one that she truly cared and wanted what was right for me and my family. It is very easy to get caught up in the system and swept through as just another conviction in Los Angeles County but Mieke fought till the end and never gave up for me. My family is very grateful for her extensive knowledge of criminal law and her determination through the whole process. I would highly recommend anyone with a criminal case in California to hire Mieke.

Mieke did a fantastic job of weeding through the complicated maze of the California DMV and got my driving rights restored as well as getting me clarification on a follow up matter. She communicated with me throughout the process and gave me a real sense of security that my issues was being expertly handled by an extremely competent Attorney. If Mieke is on your case, you are in great hands!

Mieke goes above and beyond. With an unmatched passion, and understanding, she is able to deliver in any situation. I was referred to her by a friend of the family and she turned my life completely around when it looked as if all I had worked so hard for, would be thrown away all for one dumb decision. Mieke, constantly instilled the hope that I did not have within myself and made sure I was able to gain control of my life again. She has a motherly touch that is so refreshing and a no-nonsense attitude to achieve the highest results.

Mieke is the perfect combination of professional and passionate. She is not only informed, but looks at the case from all angles. From the beginning, I knew I was in good hands and that she was really listening and advocating for me. She was also paying close attention to the other side and how they were presenting their case, and in the process, prepared me for what to expect. She was not only my attorney, but walked me through this very difficult time in my life, like a friend, explaining the process and how the system works. When we were in court, she took charge and and was the voice of my case, leading us to a victory. I am so very grateful to her and would recommend her to anyone who needs a strong, kind and passionate attorney.

Mieke ter Poorten is not only a great attorney ,she is a AWESOME person as well. She represented me in a criminal case were I faced over ten years in prison. I didn't serve one day in jail and was able to walk away with a few fines. The way she handled my case didn't feel like any lawyer I've ever dealt with in the past. I could tell she actually cared about my situation. The connection felt like family, almost like a mothers protection. So clearly I recommend her. If your in trouble, call Mieke. She saved my life!!!!!

In my true time of need and hardship Mieke stepped up and went beyond what I expected and absolutely was a true professional. Mieke took my situation very personal and was able to help me obtain a very difficult TRO (restraining Order) against a person that was not only harassing myself but also all my employees and a few companies I worked with. I have and I absolutely recommend Mieke to anyone that will ever need her services.
