I hired Kaitlin DiMaggio for my brother-in-law who was dealing with a custody battle. The DiMaggio firm did a great job, and he was happy with the outcome of his case. The team always answered any concerns or questions within a timely matter and made him feel good even in a bad situation. I would highly recommend this firm for anyone dealing with Criminal and Family law issues.

When you've never even met the lawyer and live on the other side of the United States, but feel highly compelled to leave him an EXCELLENT rating, then you know you're doing so for the BEST lawyer Phoenix, AZ has to offer. There's a show on Netflix called The Lincoln Lawyer (also a movie from 2011), but there is also a real-life "Lincoln Lawyer" in Phoenix named Gil Hacohen. Mr. Hacohen was hired by my son on what seemed a losing battle child paternity/custody case wherein my son was going up against a gilded, grisly family. "Lawyers for Less" sounded like a long shot for my son, but affordable enough to try. There's a quote that states, "It's not how much money you have that's relevant, but whether you feel rich." Mr. Hacohen, aka Lincoln Lawyer, has been working for my son as if my son has paid him millions!! He got my son his baby boy back, through all the lies and deceit on the other side. There's only been one hearing and Mr. Hacohen made it happen in 30 minutes. My son has his son back! If/when this goes to trial, which I pray it does, I will return to leave my follow-up EXCELLENT review. To you, Mr. Lincoln Lawyer, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!! You've no idea the impact you've made thus far. Do NOT hesitate to contact and retain Mr. Hacohen!!!

Fabian Zazueta and Garrett Respondek were very helpful every step of the way in our matter. They were able to pick our matter up when an unaffiliated lawyer was not working out and unable to see this matter through to closure.
They helped us keep perspective and offered well reasoned advice while being empathetic to our plight.
They are very responsive to calls and emails, often we would send an email and they would call to make sure they gave us all the relevant information.
We highly recommend Zazueta Law Firm!

Scott and his team are very knowledgeable in all matters of law. If they don't handle your type of issue ( and they are capable of handling just about everything) they will refer you to their very qualified colleagues. They have helped me and my family. Its good to have an attorney as capable, intelligent and well informed in all law matters as those in this group!

Trent (Lead Paralegal) and Kelly Law Team, did a fantastic job assisting our family with our MVA claim. My wife was the victim of an irresponsible 25 year old male driver named ZION KAI PALMOMINO ORTIZ who failed to yield, ran the light and hit my wife's vehicle head on at McQueen and Elliot Rd on February 14, 2024 at 7am. My wife suffered horrific injuries as the result of the other driver's (ZION KAI PALMOMINO ORTIZ) incompetence: internal bleeding, knocked unconscious, an open compound fracture of her right knee with her bone exposed thru her right leg, her right patella was completely destroyed, she had ten broken ribs, a broken left ankle, major loss of blood, a severe concussion, lower lumbar spine damage, and she had to be transported to the hospital as a Jane Doe because she was unconscious when Gilbert Police and Paramedics arrived at the scene of the accident.
My wife's vehicle was totaled and it is a miracle that she was not killed. The other driver, ZION KAI PALMOMINO ORTIZ was arrested and criminally cited. The at fault incompetent other driver, ZION KAI PALMOMINO ORTIZ was arrested by GPD and criminally cited with Offense # 1 90Z-3A 28-672 - SERIOUS FATAL OR INJ ACCIDENT-FAIL TO COMPLY TRAFFIC OFFENSE / ACCIDENT CRIMINAL CHARGING - COMPLETED. (Statute 28-672A SERIOUS FATAL OR INJ ACCIDENT-FAIL TO COMPLY W/ SEC. A1-A7 (M). )
Please know that Personal Injury judgements in the state of Arizona are fully dischargeable when the at fault party files Chapter 7 bankruptcy; when this happens, you will get nothing for your horrific injuries you suffered and for your pain and suffering. So your choices are to spend 2+ years of your life obtaining a personal injury judgement against them only to have them file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and wipe our your judgment, or accept their auto insurance liability limit on their auto policy and not pursue the personal injury judgement in court. The at fault party gets off Scot free with their only consequence being a higher monthly insurance bill while you have serious health consequences for the rest of your life. This Arizona personal injury law favors the at fault party and needs to change. We could have pursued the Personal Injury Judgement and forced the at fault party ZION KAI PALMOMINO ORTIZ and parents whose son was on their auto policy at GEICO: ORTIZ JAMES/PALOMINO-ORTIZ EMILY to file Chapter 7 Bankruptcy.
Trent is very knowledgeable and made sure that we were fully aware of all the steps taken throughout the entire claims process. He made this complex lengthy MVA case stress free and was always pleasant and available. I highly recommended Kelly Law Team Phoenix. Thank you Trent and John Kelly for delivering the best possible outcome for our family.

I was in an unexpected and unfortunate car accident in late December of 2023. With the amazing help from Kelly Law Team, this complex and lengthy process became stress free and easy to understand, as the team is very communicative and will go through lengths to make sure everything is able to be broken down and understood. I worked with amazing paralegals, and would like to give recognition to Trent who closed this case in August of 2024. I am so very grateful that this case was able to come to a resolution very quickly and with such ease. Thank you so much!

I am located outside of Arizona and represent a company that was wrongfully charged with a crime, along with several employees. Michael not only worked hard to ensure the charges were dismissed and keep us informed every step of the way, but he also assembled a team of attorneys from other firms to ensure our success in the case. Michael's expertise was critical to our success and his professionalism and reputation went a long way.

The prosecutor on the case made a point of saying that he had never seen work that was more thorough or done in such a timely manner. Think that pretty much says it all.
I was impressed with Mr. Alarid every step of the way. Professional, intelligent, accessible, and felt like he was defending me with the same veracity that he would defend himself.
Will be forever grateful for the work that he did on my behalf.

Mr. Feldman is extremely knowledgeable and capable first and foremost. He has a lot of experience in his field and it's fairly clear that he's seen just about everything.
Above and beyond that, he is a good communicator, and can help you understand the way things work. He always responded in a timely manner and got information to me as soon as he had it.
What makes him really shine is that he's quick, he's thought about all of the angles, and he can defend you even when the other side plays dirty. This guy has your back, and in my case even made me smile a bit when things looked bleakest. He got me through when nobody else could. Wish I had met this guy through some other context, seems like a great person to have as a friend.

Tracy and Joelle by far is the best team! Have been in my crazy battle for 4 years now, with my previous lawyer he did an okay job, but after hiring Tracy and her team, I am finally making progress. Tracy has been very transparent and gives the best advice throughout this crazy/difficult time. She has given me so much peace of mind and very on top of it. Her and Joelle has exceeded all of my expectations and then some. I am a complete over thinker and they both have eased my mind so much and have kept me sane from all of the crap I have been through. I wish I hired Tracy to begin with, but very happy I found her through a referral! Thank you over and over !!

Best attorney ever. I have enjoyed this past year working with this team of very experienced lawyers. They return phone calls asap and you never feel like you’re bothering them or asking dumb questions. Bottom line is, the people in this office make you feel important and valued. They promptly return calls.

What can I say but absolutely amazing. My parents were in a horrific car accident, it was bad enough that people were asking if my mother had passed. That could lead into a decent ford review as well I guess. But AD was amazing not only was he on top of things and fought hard for my mother, but with the issues she was experiencing he made sure to keep me in the loop at my parents request. Brisa was also amazing so patient and kind. Any documentation that was needed was easily described on what was needed and how to get it to them. Brisa was responsive and even AD as you would expect him to be slammed with court cases and other things still made sure to get back to you within a reasonable time frame. For me and my parents the process was easy, and worry free AD and Brisa kept us up to date on everything essentially holding our hands through the whole process. I would recommend AD to anyone.

If you need help, you need Chris. He was completely wonderful. Chris and I spoke on several occasions, he made sure that everything was completely explained to me, since I was new to the court system. He was kind, and understanding, and so easy to talk to (I’m a crier). He and his team worked so hard for me, and never left me hanging when I had a question. I liked the portal system, it gave me a chance to have access to all the information and documents, for my case.
Total kindness, hard workers, and on your side.

Chris Doran by far is the best criminal defense attorney in the state. He hands down knows case law, and the actual law we live by, more in depth than any lawyer I’ve encountered - and I know a few. His verbiage in motions to the court, his demeanor, and assertiveness with the knowledge he possesses in the courtroom are bar none. In my case alone I watched him go head-to-head with several attorneys on the prosecution side and educated them all on the real law they were trying to manipulate, which ultimately ended in a full dismissal with prejudice. In this case I was charged with almost a dozen class two felonies for standing my ground and sticking up for my God-given rights as an American citizen against three different swat teams from three different cities. As my life was turned upside down sitting in jail losing my house, my business, and my reputation, Chris was there from the moment I told the police to call him. As the case went on and evidence was conveniently lost or destroyed, light began to shine more suspicious activity in the part of the Police Department and the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, who were trying to cover their behinds on the wrongdoing of multiple police officers and drag out everything they were court ordered to do for months on end. Chris and Morgan worked around the clock (literally!!) and were on their game and on to the corrupt BS that was going on within the police department and the MCAO. Chris is a Rottweiler in the courtroom and is intimidated by no one and seems to love when people try to manipulate case law in their favor because he knows it all like the back of his hand and has no problem correcting the other side who look like idiots for trying to manipulate our justice system. Chris takes a lot of pride in what he does and it shows throughout the process, from his professionalism in and out of the courtroom to his utter knowledge of the process, the kindness and compassion he shows his clients, and attentiveness and attention to detail. I can’t say thank you enough or even gather the verbiage to put my thanks into words for Chris, Morgan and the rest of the phenomenal team at Doran Justice. Needing a criminal defense attorney?? Doran Justice is the only answer!

Jose was very helpful and followed through with what he originally told me at my first consultation. I was going to be charged for Domestic Violence and he was able to get it dropped down to a misdemeanor until I took my classes and paid the fines. Now that I have finished it all everything has been dropped completely. Without Jose’s help I would most likely have an assault charge on my record. Thankful and pleased with his work.

It's been several years since I had to use Jim, but all I can say is there is literally no one better :) If you think that some miracle can come along and take you out of your circumstances stop praying and call Jim. I owe him everything, I'd have lost my job like most, lost everything I owned, lost everything I know. But from a lot of research and prayers I met Jim. And that was that. Nothing sort of a miracle. And what's crazy is I referred my best friends nephew to him with even more severe and worse circumstances than I faced and he preformed another miracle for him as well. I honestly know he has a God given talent and if it's just you against the world and you got one call to make, than you sure as hell better call Jim E. Simpson. This guy is not like other high priced attorney's that send the bell boys with no idea what your facing to fight for you in court. He'll come in person with all his God gifted powers, knowledge and research and will bring you nothing short of a miracle . He's the best! #1 and worth every cent he charges!! I owe him everything I have, and I owe him my freedom today 5 years after using him!!! Thank you Jim E. Simpson!!!

James was very knowledgeable and made me feel confident in his skills and my case. He was able to turn the "worse case" scenario into the "best case" scenario and dramatically had my charges reduced. He understood the personal turmoil of going through a DUI case and was patient with questions and explained everything thoroughly so I felt reassured and comfortable throughout my entire case.

I had to file an order of protection against my former roommate and Jim's knowledge and guidance was essential in winning the order and returning peace to my life. He knows legal procedures and laws very well and it was impressive to watch him in court. I would highly recommend Jim to anyone who needed a lawyer and if I ever need legal guidance again in the future I will definitely contact him.

My son’s defense council misrepresented him which resulted in his lengthy prison sentence. Luckily, we were able to obtain council from Ms. DuMond and her associates. Consequently, his sentence was substantially reduced. I can’t thank this team enough for helping us. They were courteous, efficient, and most of all caring. We were kept abreast of all things important. We were treated with dignity and the biggest difference is that they played a major part in helping to change a man’s life. Thank you all so very much!

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.
