Jamey and Dylan(and staff) was AMAZING! Seriously. I called around to others in the area- having never been arrested, in jail or anything like this before, I didn't know what to expect. The first person I called was rude, he had been practicing DUI cases in Monterey for many years, and I am sure he was knowledgeable, but I didn't trust him the ways I trusted Jamey; right from the start, he was kind and very professional. He seems like a good guy too, a straight-talker who is down to earth, and smart. Anyhow, that was my initial impression and my gut was right! This was one, if not, the worst thing to ever happen to me. I needed someone to walk me through the journey and I got more than I expected. So my story – I was knocked out. I was on vacation in Canery Row and parked my car on the street set a 2 hour timer on my phone and went to my favorite restaurant in the area. Time passed, plans changed, and the timer went off, I booked a hotel nearby. As I went to move the rental car one tenth of the mile away, in to valet, something hit the back of my car. I come to learn someone on a skateboard lost control of their skateboard and it hit the back of the rental car. I didn't know what had happened, for all I knew, another car could have hit the back of my car. So I got out to see what happened and a large man came charging at me, I turned around to get back in the car, and that's when I was knocked out. This all happened within seconds of getting out to see if anyone was hurt based off the bang I heard, in the middle of bumper to bumper traffic, on Canery Row. Minutes later, police and ambulance came, witnesses described that the man had run away. The police officer was a complete jerk, newer on the force(Jamey tells me) – no field sobriety test was given. They arrived when I was on the sidewalk, bleeding and in shock at what happened. Instead of being treated like a victim, I was handcuffed because they smelt whiskey on my breath. I spent the next 48 hours in a holding cell, it was like what I imagine hell to be like, very sad. Since the officer was horrible, he failed to follow correct procedure. Jamey reviewed the body footage and advised the Judge to do so too. Because of this insight Jamey had, the DMV through out the case entirely. Typically, this sort of thing carries 1 year mandatory suspension of license. I had a BAC of .089, which is right at the bottom of the legal limit. Jamey told me from day one that he would push for me to get a reduction of the charge to a “Wet Reckless”(carries lower fines and not a DUI charge). One 12 hour class later and approximately $1000 in fines, I have moved on with my life. Everytime I thought of that evening, I would get irate. I actually have had to stop thinking about it entirely in order to maintain myself and move on in a healthy way. Sometime after the 3rd phone call or so(I have lived in a different state for over a decade), Jamey would encourage me to not allow the things we couldn't change, to effect us today. That wisdom and care from this professional, went a very long way. I needed that perspective, he cared enough about his client to provide it and care for their mental state. That's what I will think of when I think back to getting knocked out, with no justice and being jailed for 2 days, due to an error I made of parking on the street. The kindness of my attorney, what a great outcome for a miserable period of time. Thank you for everything! I hope to see you in person and shake your hand, that would be one fine day!

Jamey was a great attorney from the very beginning to the very end of my case. He listened to all of my concerns especially since I no longer live in the area. He assured me and was very clear that it was something he could represent me even from being far away! He is also very straightforward and updates you with every little detail throughout your case as fast as possible. I honestly was very nervous but after speaking to Jamey he made me feel like I was not alone and just kept my head up and move on from this mistake. I am very grateful for finding Jamey and having him help me with an expungement. I will always recommend him to anyone in need of representation.

I had never been arrested before and it was confusing and I was at a loss. My career was on the line as well my way of life. I reached out to Jamey Dolowich and from the first meeting I felt better knowing he was going to represent me in court. He said he would fight to get my case dismissed and explained how he was going to get it done. Jamey Dolowoch got my case dismissed and I couldn't have felt more relieved. I recommend going to Taylor and Dolowich if you find yourself in trouble with the law.

I was referred to Jamey by the Monterey county probation department to help get multiple cases on my record removed. I had a past of addiction that comes with getting arrests for different charges. I called to set up a consultation and the day I met with him and his colleague I decided to officially hire them to help me. With the hard work and dedication of Jamey all my cases were taken care of! I couldn’t have asked for a better result and it was worth every penny!!! If you are in need of help with any case you don’t hesitate and hire them!!! You will not be sorry. Thank you for everything you did for me helping me be able to get a job not having to worry if I won’t get hired because of my record. Very blessed and recommend!!

I made a bad judgement call and thought that I could evade the police. It was at this moment in my life I had a huge wake-up call. A little late. Long story short I was very stressed out, I thought I was going to prison for a long time. I also had a pretty extensive criminal history that follows me from 5 years ago. I thought my life was over and I was facing 3 class A felonies. I thank God everyday for choosing Taylor and Dolowich law firm. Without them I KNOW for a fact, beyond a shadow of a doubt that I would be in prison with a 5 year term. I am so happy and pleased with the outcome and the result of my case. Mr. Dolowich was very compassionate and understood my situation. He called me into his office several times and was able to calm me down. I have done a lot of stupid things in my life, but this one topped the caked! With Mr. Dolowich and his team he was able to do extensive research on my case and the circumstances that occurred. I was sentenced to 3 months of house arrest. I am very very lucky and blessed to have chosen Taylor and Dolowich!! This law firm literally saved my life! Thank you so very much!!

Jamey was a great attorney. He explained all my options very clearly. Though it did cost me a pretty penny, it was well worth it. He knew how to handle different types of DA's to get the best deal possible for me. I'm pleased with the result and look forward to never getting in trouble again.

Mr. Dolowich helped me with a DUI I received last year, and I must say it made this situation so much easier for me to handle. I had never been in trouble with the law previously, and wasn't sure how to deal with a DUI. My friend recommended Mr. Dolowich, and he got me in for an appointment THAT DAY, which was fantastic. I hired him that day as well, and I'm glad that I did. He handled everything with the court, so that I didn't have to appear. It made me feel much more at ease knowing that I had someone to handle all of that while it felt like I was jumping through hoops to make payments, deal with the DMV, go to the DUI classes, and complete my community service during that time. He was very understanding about my financial situation as well, which is a nice because I know that other attorneys wouldn't have been so understanding. I cannot thank Jamey enough for all of his help over this past year, so I wanted to write this review so that others know what a great attorney he is. I highly recommend him, especially if you are going through a DUI and aren't sure what to do. He will put in 100% of his time and effort to help and get you the best possible outcome that he can for your situation.

Jamey was referred to me by another attorney that was unable to take my case due to the location. I got a speeding ticket going over 100mph while going on a camping trip to big pines. I consulted Jamey about my case and from the start he was very helpful. He explained the process thoroughly & was able to reduce my speed to 75mph & i was also eligible for traffic school. I’d definitely recommend Jamey!

I was wrongfully accused and charged by the DA with a serious misdemeanor crime, thanks to my ex-wife! I was caught unawares. The case was filed against me last September 2016. I have never been in trouble with law before. I have been a law abiding citizen all my life and this was a whole new ballgame for me. What am I to do? Fast forward, I already hired two criminal defense lawyers here in Salinas. In both instances, these two criminal defense lawyers were telling me to face the music so to speak and be accountable for my actions. They told me implicitly with the former attorney and explicitly with the latter attorney that there is no way out for me with regards my misdemeanor case except through a conviction of a lesser charge via plea bargain. Nothing was being offered on the table by the DA around this time February 2017. This was when I took a chance and called the office of Taylor and Dolowich. I was bleeding financially paying exorbitant lawyer fees. I was physically, mentally and emotionally drained on the brink of hopelessness because if I get convicted or agree to a plea bargain deal, my life, my liberty and my livelihood will go down in flames and become KAPUT! Atty. Jamey Dolowich together with his partner Atty. Dylan were godsend. Atty. Jamey knows what he is doing. He is very intelligent and a master of his craft, professional, sincere and a straight shooter, excellent customer service/client centered skills, and most importantly for me, CARING and COMPASSIONATE! Every time I gave him a call in the office to clarify some things about my case, he would often answer the call if he's in the office or his partner Atty. Dylan would answer my phone call. They always gave me a call back the same day if both of them were unavailable. When I requested a face-to-face appointment in their office, Atty. Jamey and Atty. Dylan would always accommodate me the soonest time possible even with their busy court schedules. I'm just a pebble in the sand and I'm not a VIP, rich and affluent client but they sure made me feel like one! Atty. Jamey Dolowich fought hard for my case and my hopelessness turned into hope. All my chips were down and I was all in to face a nerve-racking and precarious jury trial come August 2017. Through God's amazing grace, using Atty. Jamey Dolowich and his partner Atty. Dylan Taylor as a tool to exonerate me, my case got DISMISSED in the furtherance of justice by the DA last June 2017. Answered prayers! I would forever be indebted to Atty. Jamey and Atty. Dylan for winning my case. I don't wish this to happen to anybody, but if ever you find yourself in trouble with the law like what happened to me, I highly recommend you get the services of Taylor and Dolowich! They exceeded my expectations and I'm sure they will exceed yours. Atty. Jamey will be ready to go to the mattresses with you to win your case and defend and uphold your God-given legal rights! Among the criminal defense lawyers in Monterey county, Atty. Jamey Dolowich is definitely Creme de la Creme!
