This review is long over due! Randy and Chris are absolutely AMAZING! Chris helped in the beginning process of some past things I needed to remove off my record. Then I met with Randy and he finished the rest.. we went to court and the judge and District attorney were familiar with Randy and agreed with him in removing my past case off my record and sealing it. I can’t thank Chris and Randy enough. God knows I’ve worked so hard to be where I am today and that was one last thing I needed to do to improve my life even more! Thank you so much and God Bless! Randy and Chris are #1 in my book. 🙌🙏👏💪

* Randy Collins is a threat, not the solution. *
I cannot stress enough how awful my experience was with Randy Collins as my attorney. Despite boasting about his experience with federal cases, my new attorney confirmed that Collins had never actually tried one. Before becoming a defense attorney, Collins worked as a prosecutor, and it seemed to me that he transitioned to defense work to make more money with less responsibility, credibility, and actual stress. His previous experience as a prosecutor made me feel like he was prosecuting me instead of defending me.
He was dishonest, disrespectful, and arrogant, showing zero regard for me as his client. Worse yet, he spent no meaningful time on my case, revealing his complete incompetence.
I paid Collins thousands of dollars upfront to cover the pre-trial process, but after just a few short meetings, it became clear to me that he spent little to no time on my case outside of our meetings. He was completely disengaged, making assumptions without asking for essential facts or details about my business. He jumped to unrelated conclusions, and I had to force him to listen to my version of events and the critical details of my situation, which he frequently dismissed.
During our last meeting, my wife, who was pregnant at the time, felt intense anxiety and fear after we were told that if I didn’t follow their advice, she could also be implicated in the sentencing. This created an extreme and distressing environment for both of us.
One of the most absurd suggestions I received during our meetings was for me to claim mental illness as part of the defense strategy. I found it completely inappropriate and disconnected from the facts of my case. If I hadn’t fired him, I believe I could have ended up in prison due to his mishandling of my defense.
Despite this, Collins refused to refund any of my money after I fired him. When I requested a refund, he sent me a ledger claiming he had already spent the time I paid for. However, based on his disengaged approach and the short timeframe, it was clear he hadn’t done the work he claimed.
This isn’t my first attempt to post a review. After I posted my initial review, I was bombarded by messages and phone calls from Randy and his associates, urging me to resolve the issue “amicably.” I felt intimidated by this and removed my review. Only after consulting with legal professionals did I feel confident enough to voice my strong opinion, based on my factual experience—including my wife, who was scared for me to continue trusting Randy.
If you're looking for an attorney who genuinely cares about his clients and has the experience and competence to back it up, steer clear of Randy Collins. He is an absolute disaster who will only bring you more trouble and stress in the long run.
Best of luck in finding the right legal support.

During our recent visit to Newport Beach to create a new trust, my wife and I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Max Alavi, who proved to be the most exceptional family law attorney I have ever encountered. Max and Diana, his office manager, were always available to answer our questions and provided clear and prompt responses, making the process easy to understand from the very beginning. Their commitment to ensuring everything ran seamlessly was truly inspiring, and I highly recommend their law office to anyone in need of such services. I hope to work with them again in the future. Thank you, team! Tony B.

I am here a free man today thanks to Mark Fredrick for all the hard work and dedication he put into my case. He never gave up on me even though it was a difficult case and took him almost 2 years to get the best possible outcome for me. So my story began when I was pulled over in Newport Beach in October of 2022. After I was arrested and released, I was charged with a 2nd DUI violation after a 9 year gap from my 1st DUI conviction in 2013. I blew a BAC of .20 on my 2nd DUI arrest. I also had my Glock 26 with a 33 round magazine inside my car which I was also charged with having a loaded gun inside my car and a high capacity magazine. I had put myself in a really bad situation and I thought that I would be facing many years in prison due to all those factors. I fell into depression and was extremely scared about my situation.
So I Googled for criminal defense lawyers in the OC. I met a few criminal defense lawyers but I wasn't really convinced by them. Then I found Mr. Fredrick and read all his reviews and wanted to meet him in person. When I met him at his office and we started talking about my case, I instantly felt a sense of calmness and safety. He gave me a game plan on what he would be able to do and told me that he couldn't make any promises. But
after we finished our meeting, I felt it in me that this would be the man to help me out.
So a week later, I hired him as my lawyer. Through out the entire course of my case, he kept me updated. I didn't have to go to all of my court dates because he would go for me. And on the dates that I did have to show up for court; it was extremely nerve racking everytime I stepped into the court room and faced the judge. But everytime Mr. Fredrick would stand next to me and he would speak to the judge; my nerves would calm down and I felt that I had the best lawyer by my side. Each court date would be extended so Mr. Fredrick would be able to keep on working on my case for the best possible outcome.
Fast forward to August 2024, on my final 2 court dates, the court system still wanted to give me a mandatory 60 days in jail. That did scared me a lot because I would have to leave my job and my family. But Mr. Fredrick still fought for me and he was able to get me a plea deal if I agreed to plead "guilty" to the DUI charges, which was getting a 5 year informal DUI probation, attend an 18 month DUI classes, and complete a 6 month alcohol treatment program and attend a MADD program class and install an IID in my car for 1 year. My gun charges were dismissed. I took the plea deal because it was way better than doing 60 days in jail. I also didn't get house arrest. There is a 6 month jail sentence stay on my court order probation but as long as I do all my court order objectives that I need to complete by the certain due dates and not violate my 5 year DUI probation; then I would stay out of jail.
And here I am today writing this review. I wanted to share my story. I am extremely grateful and happy that I had the best lawyer working on my case and standing by my side in the court room. I also want to thank his Secretary Kim for also keeping me updated on my case and setting up my meetings with Mr. Fredrick. I highly recommend this law office. They really care about you and will fight for the best possible outcome for you and not just take your money and leave you in the dark. I can finally feel inner peace and sleep better at night because of them. Thank you so much again.

Mark went above and beyond for me and got 2 felonies completely dismissed. He even was able to a get a red light traffic citation dismissed too and I didn't even hire him for that. He was very professional and really makes a presence with himself in the courtroom. I was impressed by how confidently and comfortably he composes himself. I am extremely grateful for all of his hard work and Kim, his secretary was excellent as well and super easy to communicate with.

DO NOT HIRE! This law firm is the most unorganized & unprofessional business I have ever dealt with in my life. After charging us for an hour of zoom consultation we were ready to move forward with his service. However, we had one final question to clear up before signing the contract. We got the run around from his office for more than two weeks before we gave up on hearing from them. If you like being ignored and getting the run around from his employees, go ahead and hire him. I am beyond disappointed that we wasted a lot of time just waiting to hear back from them when we could have went with another firm.

Devin is very knowledgeable and was able to quickly answer legal/structuring questions and confirm information related to a condominium our daughter will be purchasing with our assistance. He then helped us prepare and file the corresponding legal documents to give effect to our purchase and financing. His fees were very reasonable, and I highly recommend him for this type of work.

We hired his firm for a simple defense and Rodney was assigned. He did absolutely nothing for us for a year and a half. We finally ended up switching to a public defender and we got what we were asking for all along, in one court date. Don’t waste your money on this guy who will drag your case out forever, just to get more money from you.

So I usually do not write reviews however when I do the establishment or person went above and beyond my expectations. First off I hired Rodney as my attorney for a case back in 2019. Not only was Mr.Nosratabadi very professional he was also very knowledgeable with all the legal ramifications associated with my case. Not only did he reduce my charge he worked timelessly with the courts and myself to do everything possible. I was very satisfied with his service and I am sure you will be as well. I do not wish for anyone to ever come in contact with the law. But like myself I used Rodney and he came through for me. He goes through every Avenue and when I lost hope he never did. Thank you Rodney!!!!

I've worked with Rodney and his partner, Reza, for some time now - Rodney is one of the most caring attorneys I've ever met. He is extremely responsive. When you speak with him you can tell right away that he truly cares about his clients - he always goes above and beyond. I appreciate most that he never beats around the bush. He will always be upfront with you. I trust him and you should too. I highly recommend him and his firm!

John is the best of lawyer you can get for a Personal Injury case. I currently live out of state from California. But my case and lawsuit was for the Orange County Court. He kept me informed of my case. He went to work right away to answer the my requests to the court. I knew would be the best lawyer at our first meeting over the phone. I knew I had hired the best Lawyer for my issues. He worked very feverishly on my case. He gave me very sage advise when I needed it the most. If you hire John M Kremer, I can tell you he will fight every inch of the way to get a satisfactory solution a lawyer can get within the law! I can not say enough of his strengths in this review! I can not give enough laudatory statements here. If any of my close friends and/or family ever needed a Personal Injury lawyer, I would tell they are a fool not to hire John M Kremer! In that you would be in very good hands with him and his associates, they worked very diligently on my case. They were the reason why I got a very favorable action to my lawsuit! He gave me several avenues on how he could make the case more effective defense to protect me under the law! When I first heard of the case being served the lawsuit and meeting him over the phone due to living in another state. I knew that I had hired the BEST! He used all efforts to get a satisfactory outcome a defendant could have!
If I could give John more stars I certainly would! If you hire John like I did, he will do right by you, in giving great advice and strategies on how to handle my case. When you need him the most he will be there for you.

HARMONY IS TRULY AMAZING!! It is safe to assume that anyone searching for an attorney is probably not in the best season of their life. In most cases, representation is needed at a time of vulnerability, fear, and often pain. It is in this state that I sought counsel. At that point, I had worked with two different lawyers who seemed to lack empathy and understanding of my circumstances. Then I found Harmony and MKH Accident Attorneys. Not only did Harmony have expert knowledge and ability to navigate the intricacies of the Legal and Court system, she also validated my experiences. She believed me and made me feel like I wasn’t alone for the first time in all of my legal challenges. Harmony worked tirelessly and helped me to achieve the very best outcome. I cannot even express how unbelievably grateful I am that an Attorney like Harmony even exists, let alone how blessed I feel to have had her by my side through this very difficult time of my life.

I am impressed—from the initial communication to the signed settlement agreement—working with Joseph Aliberti has been outstanding.
Many dynamics exists between clients, the nature of cases, attorney’s, judges, and courts. The experienced counsel represented by Joseph Aliberti turned an otherwise fearful and contentious process—wrought with uncertainty, into one of clarity governed by rule of law.
They say that Justice is blind—Attorney Joseph Aliberti removed the blindfold and guided Justice in the right direction.
Though one never looks forward to litigation, having experienced counsel, like that offered by Joseph Aliberti, helps to shine a light on an otherwise beclouded and intimidating process.
Thanks

I'm not sure he did any work on my case. He never contacted me after I paid him. I've tried to politely check in. Always the same answer it is a slow process. Very disappointed. Checked his reviews before hiring him, I seem to be the only one with this problem. My husband and I are going to have to hire someone else.

Scott Heitmann was amazing on my case. He was thorough, attentive to my concerns, and aggressive in my defense. I was in fact innocent. He carefully examined and presented the evidence and forged a deal that will lead to a dismissal of the false charges against me. I am very thankful and don't think I could have selected a better attorney. God Bless you Scott and my family and I thank you with all our hearts.

What a Criminal Defense Lawyer Can Do for You
A criminal defense lawyer provides legal representation to individuals or organizations accused of criminal conduct. If you're facing criminal charges, a defense lawyer will work to protect your rights, build a defense strategy, and ensure you receive a fair trial. Their primary goal is to reduce or dismiss charges, secure an acquittal, or negotiate a favorable plea deal.
Criminal defense lawyers have extensive knowledge of criminal law and court procedures. They investigate your case, identify weaknesses in the prosecution's evidence, and represent you in court, ensuring that you have the best possible defense.
When Should I Hire a Criminal Defense Lawyer?
It’s crucial to hire a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible if you are facing any criminal charges. Some situations in which you should seek legal representation include:
- Arrest or police questioning: If you've been arrested or are under investigation, hiring a lawyer early on can prevent self-incrimination and protect your rights during police questioning.
- Felony charges: Crimes such as murder, assault, drug trafficking, or robbery carry severe penalties, including long prison sentences. A defense lawyer is essential in these cases.
- Misdemeanor charges: Even for less serious offenses like DUI, theft, or simple assault, a lawyer can help reduce penalties, negotiate alternatives to jail, or get charges dismissed.
- Plea negotiations: If you’re considering a plea bargain, a lawyer can evaluate the deal, advise you on its consequences, and negotiate for more favorable terms.
- Probation or parole violations: If you’ve been accused of violating probation or parole, a lawyer can defend you against additional penalties or revocation.
- Juvenile offenses: For minors charged with criminal acts, a criminal defense lawyer can protect their future by minimizing legal repercussions or keeping the case in juvenile court.
What Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Do?
Criminal defense lawyers provide comprehensive legal services to protect their clients’ rights throughout the criminal justice process. Their duties include:
- Case evaluation and investigation: Reviewing the evidence, interviewing witnesses, and investigating the facts to develop a strong defense strategy.
- Legal advice: Advising you on your rights, the charges you’re facing, and potential defense strategies, including whether to take a plea deal or go to trial.
- Negotiating plea bargains: Working with prosecutors to negotiate a plea deal that could reduce charges or minimize penalties.
- Court representation: Representing you in all court hearings, including bail hearings, pretrial motions, trials, and sentencing hearings.
- Filing motions: Filing motions to dismiss charges, suppress evidence, or reduce bail, depending on the specifics of your case.
- Trial preparation and defense: Preparing a defense strategy and presenting arguments, evidence, and witnesses during trial to contest the prosecution's case.
- Appeals: If you are convicted, a defense lawyer can appeal the conviction or sentence, arguing errors in the trial process or legal rulings.
How Are Criminal Defense Lawyers Paid?
Criminal defense lawyers generally charge clients in one of three ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Payment structures include:
- Flat fee: For straightforward cases (e.g., minor misdemeanors), some lawyers charge a one-time flat fee that covers all aspects of the defense.
- Hourly rate: For more complex or ongoing cases, lawyers may charge by the hour, with rates varying based on the lawyer’s experience and geographic location.
- Retainer fee: In cases where extensive work is expected, the client may pay a retainer fee upfront. The lawyer then bills against that retainer for their work on the case.
The cost of criminal defense services can vary greatly, so it’s important to discuss fees during your initial consultation.
How Much Does a Criminal Defense Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a criminal defense lawyer depends on several factors, including the severity of the charges, the complexity of the case, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost guidelines are:
- Misdemeanor cases: For relatively minor offenses, such as a DUI or petty theft, a flat fee may range from $1,500 to $5,000.
- Felony cases: More serious charges, such as assault or drug trafficking, can range from $10,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the complexity and duration of the case.
- Hourly rates: For cases billed by the hour, lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on their expertise and the case's location.
- Additional expenses: You may also be responsible for other costs, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, or the cost of private investigators.
Be sure to clarify the lawyer’s fee structure and any potential additional costs during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Criminal Defense Lawyer
Before hiring a criminal defense lawyer, you’ll want to ensure that they’re a good fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has a strong track record with the specific type of criminal charges you’re facing, whether it’s DUI, drug offenses, or violent crimes. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs. -
What are the potential outcomes of my case?
A good lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case and the likelihood of dismissal, a plea bargain, or conviction. -
How many cases have you taken to trial?
While many criminal cases settle with a plea deal, it’s important to hire a lawyer with courtroom experience in case your case goes to trial. -
Who will handle my case?
Ask if the lawyer will be personally involved or if other attorneys in the firm will handle most of the work. -
How do you communicate with your clients?
Be clear on how often and through what channels you can expect updates on your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Criminal Defense Lawyer
To verify the credibility of a criminal defense lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their standing with the state bar: Confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any past disciplinary actions or complaints.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google can provide insights from previous clients about the lawyer’s communication, professionalism, and case outcomes.
- Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should have past clients or other professionals who can speak to their competence and work ethic.
- Review their case history: Look at the lawyer’s website or professional profile to see their experience with criminal cases, including high-profile or complex cases.
- Look for trial experience: If your case might go to trial, make sure the lawyer has a strong history of courtroom advocacy and success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your first consultation with a criminal defense lawyer, bring the following:
- Details of your case: Be prepared to provide a detailed account of the charges against you, including any documents related to your arrest, police reports, and court dates.
- Criminal history: If you have any prior criminal convictions, inform your lawyer so they can understand how that may affect your current case.
- List of witnesses or evidence: If there are any potential witnesses or evidence that may support your defense, share this information during the consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare questions about their experience, legal strategy, and fees to ensure you understand how they will handle your case.
- Bail or release documents: If you’ve been released on bail, bring any paperwork related to your release conditions or restrictions.
By being well-prepared, you can help your lawyer quickly assess your situation and begin building an effective defense strategy.
