I can’t say enough good things about Ibraham Dbouk. Here's my personal story and how he helped me fight these outrageous charges that could have impacted my livelihood if a conviction of these charges. I was facing three serious charges that could have resulted in a felony. I was hesitant at first to hire a criminal defense attorney and to weigh the options of the public defender assign to me. I didn’t want to risk my livelihood and receiving any conviction, so I decided upon hiring Ibraham as my attorney, an attorney that could focus solely on my case. I can say it was worth every single penny. All of the charges were dismissed. From the beginning, he was committed to going above and beyond to address any concerns I had. He took the time to thoroughly explain every detail of my case, making sure I felt informed and confident in the decisions we were making. What really stood out was how he walked me through the entire legal process. I never felt lost or unsure about what was going on—he made sure I understood each step and was always transparent about what to expect next. It’s scary not knowing what can happen to you. Ibraham was there to explain the whole process from beginning to end. His approach was logical and well thought out. He didn’t just take the easy route, he was strategic, methodical, and willing to fight for me every step of the way. And when it came to communication, he was incredibly responsive. Whether it was a simple question or a more complex concern, he was always there to address it promptly, which really put me at ease during a stressful time. Thanks to his hard work, I avoided a felony conviction, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you're looking for an attorney who will fight for you, be transparent, and guide you through the entire process with care and expertise, this is the one you need. Highly recommend! To summarize: - Help fight my felony charges. The case was dismissed - Communicative. Responds through text, and easily reachable - Calm my nerves throughout the whole process - Worth every penny in hiring Ibraham as my attorney Ibrahim please if you ever need witness to how well of an attorney you are to future clients, feel free to reach out to me or simply mention how you helped my case to them.

We had an outstanding experience with Mr. Vega as our attorney. My wife had a traffic violation that was initially classified as misdemeanor, and we were very stressed about it. Mr. Vega first worked with the DA’s office and successfully had the charges filed infractions. During the court process, he also had a conversation with the officer involved, and had one of the charges dismissed. He was knowledgeable, professional, and made us feel confident throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly goes above and beyond, Mr. Vega is the one to call. Thank you so much, Mr. Vega, for your hard work and dedication.

Tom is an exceptional attorney! He was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to all my friends and family. I had so much anxiety, but Tom was able to relieve my stress through his kindness, thoroughness and patience. He was always available to answer any questions I had whether it was through email or telephone. He also continually kept me informed and up to date on my case. I can not thank him enough for all of your help, guidance and professionalism. I highly recommend Tom.

Mr. Campanella and his staff had my DUI case dismissed. I originally hired a different attorney who let the DA run the show and left me in limbo for nearly a year. As soon as Mr. Campanella was hired, he had the DA on the phone, scheduled, and I knew we had a game plan. He tends to communicate through text and his staff was consistently in-the-know, and addressing my questions when they could. We also used one of his colleagues from his network of legal professionals to accommodate my pre-scheduled arraignment. I was very unfamiliar with the court processes, and when I found out the DA wanted a jury trial, I enlisted Mr. Campanella and his firm. The dates were scheduled. He explained what it all meant, and gave me his game plan. He even drove to the site of the arrest with me to get eyes on the situation. Little did I know, there are multiple court hearings leading up to a trial. The first was a Suppression Hearing and this is when and where the value of his expertise was proven. He methodically negated many of the DA's statements/questions and demonstrated a clear understanding of the law along with the witnesses lack of legally required procedures. This allowed the majority of the discovery(evidence), to be suppressed(un-usable in court) and the DA was left empty handed. The next hearing, I was barely able to get from my spectator's seat to the defendant's table before the DA dismissed the case and the judge echo'd in finality. John and his staff crushed it. He humbly let me know, it doesn't always go so easily, but he had a plan and executed it. I highly recommend Mr. John Campanella for DUI needs.

We had an outstanding experience with Mr. Vega as our attorney. My wife had a traffic violation that was initially classified as misdemeanor, and we were very stressed about it. Mr. Vega first worked with the DA’s office and successfully had the charges filed infractions. During the court process, he also had a conversation with the officer involved, and had one of the charges dismissed. He was knowledgeable, professional, and made us feel confident throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly goes above and beyond, Mr. Vega is the one to call. Thank you so much, Mr. Vega, for your hard work and dedication.

This guy used to be a prosecutor. He is very good at helping defendants prove themselves over the course of time patterns of behavior that a public defender just can't offer. His drawback for me was that he was so busy and we had conflicting schedules, so it was difficult to maintain communication. Otherwise, he's an outstanding lawyer. Very good reputation in court from what I gather.

When hiring a lawyer, one must consider several factors for what is a significant and important decision that could determine the trajectory of your life. Is this lawyer competent at their area of expertise? Does this lawyer treat their clients with respect and as a person and not simply a case number? Does this lawyer have the personality and moral demeanor that best represents you and your interests? Will this lawyer be transparent and communicative? Jason Holley is all of these things. He has dedicated his career to helping others and continues to do so daily at his practice. Do not hesitate to have a consultation with him and choose him to represent you.

With a speed reduction of 15+mph and consequently decreased fine amount, the results show. He is very direct and no-nonsense, which makes him easy to work with. Suffice to say that with his knowledge, straightforwardness, and on top of that a tireless determination, Mr. Margarita is the man to go to when you want a job done right.

I can’t say enough good things about Ibraham Dbouk. Here's my personal story and how he helped me fight these outrageous charges that could have impacted my livelihood if a conviction of these charges. I was facing three serious charges that could have resulted in a felony. I was hesitant at first to hire a criminal defense attorney and to weigh the options of the public defender assign to me. I didn’t want to risk my livelihood and receiving any conviction, so I decided upon hiring Ibraham as my attorney, an attorney that could focus solely on my case. I can say it was worth every single penny. All of the charges were dismissed. From the beginning, he was committed to going above and beyond to address any concerns I had. He took the time to thoroughly explain every detail of my case, making sure I felt informed and confident in the decisions we were making. What really stood out was how he walked me through the entire legal process. I never felt lost or unsure about what was going on—he made sure I understood each step and was always transparent about what to expect next. It’s scary not knowing what can happen to you. Ibraham was there to explain the whole process from beginning to end. His approach was logical and well thought out. He didn’t just take the easy route, he was strategic, methodical, and willing to fight for me every step of the way. And when it came to communication, he was incredibly responsive. Whether it was a simple question or a more complex concern, he was always there to address it promptly, which really put me at ease during a stressful time. Thanks to his hard work, I avoided a felony conviction, and I couldn’t be more grateful. If you're looking for an attorney who will fight for you, be transparent, and guide you through the entire process with care and expertise, this is the one you need. Highly recommend! To summarize: - Help fight my felony charges. The case was dismissed - Communicative. Responds through text, and easily reachable - Calm my nerves throughout the whole process - Worth every penny in hiring Ibraham as my attorney Ibrahim please if you ever need witness to how well of an attorney you are to future clients, feel free to reach out to me or simply mention how you helped my case to them.

I hired Mike Ross as my lawyer two years ago for a case regarding a spurious robbery charge. Why review him now? Because after I went onto multiple sites including this one in order to warn people of my experiences I decided against it because he had been negatively reviewed into the ground. Indeed, even before I hired him, I printed out the reviews that greatly troubled me, and showed him and asked for his explanation. Using the greatest skill he ever showed me, he deftly wound each story into the other. So many reasons from each client. Bitterness. Regret. Lack of financing. His inability to help them due to them either hamstringing him, or going against his advice, or just being guilty with overwhelming evidence against them. I was glued to these stories, and impressed with his speaking style. Surely, I thought, if he defends me with even a modicum of the same skill, this is an easy win, right? Looking back, he divulged way too much information, and I wonder what he tells people of me now, even what rationalizations he uses to say why I am just like all the other clients he discredited. I don't know what he's done or how, but this site now shows a five star average rating for him. It's both ridiculous and impressive. I'd laugh if he hadn't caused so much harm. Reputation is everything, and it is fitting that Mike Ross' reputation is the only thing he will work his magic to defend and protect. I chose Mike Ross because I was impressed that a lawyer of his experience could be had for the price point. Careful what you wish for. Other lawyers had quoted me anywhere from 12-25k to go to trial, which I was deadset on, being falsely accused. He quoted me a paltry 10 grand. 5 up front, two payments splitting the rest after. What a deal! i quickly signed our agreement and paid him the first 5k and then an additional 2.5 very shortly after, eager to secure such a skilled man before any one else monopolized him. The only thing that tripped me at the time was his equal rush for me to sign, and a tiny portion of fine print saying the quote was for "pretrial services", which of course was not what we agreed. But he laughed it off, said they'd grabbed the wrong papers, and crossed it out, writing over it in what seemed like pen, that it was including trial services once full payment was received. Hindsight, right? So how did it go? We had film and witnesses proving my innocence. I truly felt there was nothing that could possibly go wrong. I felt strange that I only ever called him, never the reverse, but if it was such a slam dunk, so what? Then he deposed me, but not really, it was the last time I ever saw him. He met me in a secluded spot out in old town Sac by the river and took notes on my version of events. He noted that I had not gathered the relevant film nor contacted the relevant witnesses, to my shock, which he said he'd guess he'd have to do then. He never did. Then for three months before the trial, ignored my calls with the exception of his secretary calling to inquire about the final 2.5k, which we'd already agreed he'd get once the trial date was set, which also should have alerted me. On the date of the pretrial hearing, we went on Zoom, he came on late, and just destroyed any hope I had. He said he was there for pretrial only, and not my main council. Then once I, flabbergasted, asked to recess the hearing to talk to him on the phone, he denied. The ADA offered a bad deal never discussed, and Ross stopped it and said then and there that if I didn't accept it, he was gone, and I was on my own. I had no more money, and therefore no way to sue him, and worst, was blindsided at my greatest hour of need. He knew this. I made what deal I could without him and just plead out. No evidence, no witnesses, he had never done any work he promised. Just like that, he disappeared. You will regret any relationship to this man. Maybe he erases this too. Please don't make my mistake!

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:

  1. 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.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for their services and whether you’ll be responsible for any additional costs.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
