I have a close friend that recently used Gellar law. We worked with Sam specifically and could not have had a better experience. Sam is an incredible criminal law defense attorney who was able to get my friend out of a terrible DUI case. Sam was fair, understanding, and really went to bat for us. He didn’t quit until my friends charges were completely dropped and he wouldn’t let the DA or police take advantage of my friend who spoke English as a second language and didn’t understand the court system. I would strongly recommend Gellar Law as the best lawyer you can find in San Francisco for criminal defense. If you find yourself in this or similar situation, it will be the best decision you ever made!

Great human being and an awesome attorney. He truly saved my life, work, and marriage. I was facing serious criminal charges and he was able to dismiss all of them. Best money I've ever spent. He's not cheap, but in my opinion worth every penny.

Sam is my go-to guy. He's helped me on numerous occasions, with small infractions and some bigger, more complex cases. I've never had to wait for a call back, because he always makes himself available to talk. Sam isn't stuck in rigid thinking, his approach is consistently dynamic and in accordance with the needs of his clients. I've certainly referred him to friends and family members., esp. on DUI cases. Sam is ever the consummate professional, and most importantly, his ethics are unwavering which is a must for anyone I would call my personal attorney.

I needed a lawyer for my uncle whose English isn't very good. I was referred to Sam by a friend and he was stellar. Not only was he kind to my uncle regarding the language barrier, he was also very patient. Sam always returned my calls and emails promptly and did an excellent job on my uncles DUI case. For each court appearance, Sam made sure my uncle was well prepared and explained exactly what would happen. There were never any surprises. If you need a criminal defense lawyer, this is the one for you.

Sam is a great defense lawyer. He takes time to talk to you about your case and he will let you know of all important updates throughout the process. He knows exactly what to do in each case he takes and most importantly he gets results. He isn't afraid to go to court and fight for you and he knows how to get cases dismissed and won in trial. Step number one in getting your case taken care of is to call Sam!!

Sam came recommend to me by friend who used him for DUI. After speaking to him, I feel comfortable to hire him for some help. He was responsive, keep me updated through the entire case, and was always very easy to reach. Working with Sam felt great. I would recommended Sam if you need a criminal attorney.

Sam is hands down the best at what he does. If you made a bad judgment call and got yourself in some trouble, give Sam a ring. He's easy to work with, very personable, and concise. Criminal matters can get pretty complex and sam breaks it all down. He's never in a rush, takes his time with you, and does his best. Like I said above, he's the best DUI lawyer you can find.

Sam is a great lawyer. Along with his professionalism, he is reliable and approachable that made me have a support. He helped me through all process and explained every step before we made decisions. At the end we settled the case and I can move on.

Sam is the best DUI lawyer in SF, very professional and reliable. He takes his time necessary for the case and keep you updated. He got my case dismissed...amazing!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.... Thanks Sam for everything....

I found out about Sam after my buddy told me he used a great DUI lawyer and I decided to call him when I got a speeding ticket. We talked for a few minutes and then he emailed me the proper paperwork and I emailed him my ticket. That was all the work I had to do. A few months later he gave me a call and said my case was dismissed. Sam didn't over promise anything, was honest, and is a man of his word. This was the most hassle free experience I think you could have with a criminal lawyer. I will definitely be calling Sam again if I get more tickets.

Sam was recommended by a friend as a go-to guy for a speeding ticket my mom got on New Years Eve speeding through 19th Avenue (and I mean really speeding). He picked up the phone right away and was able to calm her down, which is a close to impossible job in itself. Sam explained what she can expect and went over the steps that he will take to ensure her record won't be impacted. He talked to us about his experience as a criminal defense attorney specializing in DUI law and how that experience will play to our advantage because he is known in the court room and is comfortable being aggressive on behalf of his clients. I myself have gone to attorneys in San Francisco and San Mateo counties for prior traffic violations, paid money, but never actually had the attorney himself take the time to speak with me. And even then, after paying the fee,I  had to be the one following up on the progress of my case. Its been 2 weeks and Sam has already checking in with my mom twice! We are very happy with the service and level of communication we have received thus far, and I am hoping Sam can get my moms case dismissed. I can tell Sam is a true advocate for his clients and if I ever found myself in real trouble, I would want a criminal defense attorney of Sams caliber on my side!
