La verdad es que cuando llega a tu familia un DUI te pones nervioso y no sabes qué hacer, hasta que contactamos al abogado Luis Jimenez y desde el primer momento estuvo muy pendiente resolviendo todas las dudas, contestando mensajes, llamadas y nos dio mucha tranquilidad. Consiguió una muy buena negociación! Un excelente abogado y una gran persona.. Estamos totalmente agradecidos.

After receiving the worst news of my life, I was forced to find lawyer to defend me. After contacting many defense attorneys in the San Diego area, Anna Yum caught my attention. From the start and throughout the whole process, her staff were incredibly compassionate and helpful. They were quickly able to get me in touch with Anna. After speaking with Anna about my situation, I knew she would be the right one to help me. She was incredibly professional, compassionate, empathetic, and knowledgeable. She helped me through the entire process and set reasonable expectations. She also provided me with a private investigator who diligently worked to gather as much information as they could. While there seemed to be a lack of communication, Anna assured me that “no news is good news” which turned out to be true. Ultimately, Anna, her team, and the private investigator were able to put an end to this terrible mess I found myself in. I recommend Anna Yum as a defense lawyer.

My wife and I have been working with her oldest brother (85 yrs old) to help him with a Will and a Living Trust. For the past 3 years we have traveled from our home in Durand Mi. to San Diego to provide him with advice and provide any help he may need to get everything right. The more we worked the more complicated and confusing this procedure became, OMG were we Stumped. This year we decided we needed professional help. So, what do you do when your 2000 miles away and don't really know anybody in a big city like San Diego, GOOGLE IT! That's exactly what we did and came up with a bunch of names of attorneys that claim to be the best anywhere. We started making calls to see who we liked the best and would be able to take care of our issues. We left voice mails and asked to have someone contact us to set up a meeting. We encountered a few who were vague and after listening to what we needed really didn’t seem too interested. Then Jason, called us and we were so happy with his attitude and wiliness to complete the needed documents on a very short notice. Everyone in that firm seemed to want to help us get everything right, signed, and registered they even worked through the weekend. So, we could rest assured that we wouldn't be caught up in a nightmare with the probate courts. Thank you, Jason, and Ashley what a great feeling to know we made the right decision when we chose you

Now in 2025, I needed to update my Trust so I tracked Stuart down and found him in his own practice. Very thorough, yet very easy going personality. I highly recommend Stuart for your estate planning.

From the very beginning of the process, where I had a phone conversation with Stuart, we felt very confident that we had chosen the right attorney firm for our case. Later, when Juanita took over the responsibility for our case, and started interacting with us, the confidence and trust just kept growing each time we communicated with her. Finally, the actual process of meeting with Juanita in order to go over everything and finalize our case went extremely well. Both Juanita and Stuart demonstrated outstanding professionalism as well as expertise throughout the entire process. In conclusion, my wife and I know exactly which attorney firm to contact for our next possible case. //Behrouz Aghili

Stefano was attentive, knowledgeable, organized and took the time to collect relevant information. He reviewed and analyzed the information and gave me clear, concise, and objective guidance with respect to my options and their respective ramifications. I came away with a clear impression of what a trustworthy lawyer who acts with integrity should look like. If I ever need another lawyer, I know where I'll stop first.

Logan is very knowledgeable and professional. Since it was my first time in court, it was a great relief to have someone with you who can explain to you in common language what it going on and the options available. He helped me get the best outcome in my case and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney.

I found myself in a horrible situation that required the best lawyer possible. My lead lawyer, Logan Noblin, was just that. From my first contact with the firm to the very end, Logan and the firm were there for me 100%. Better yet, this firm's team of lawyers are involved with all cases to collectively work on getting the best result. Communication during my 2 year case was outstanding. They make great use of there client portal. Also, this made providing and receiving documents to the firm very easy. Another great quality of Logan is his caring demeanor. He really put my mind at ease throughout the case. A huge thanks to Logan and his team!

Do NOT Use this firm theyve scammed me upwards of $10,000 by collecting the money and have not done a single thing and they don’t communicate for months upon months read the other reviews as well. They do the same thing to others I was promised so much and they have not done a single thing. My lawyer didn’t even show up to my court date and said he sent somebody else. I have my life endangered and he was supposed to help me get a restraining order. It has been two months since he has gotten back to me. I have had Sean as my lawyer for a year and he has only lost me everything with no communication.

I was very lost and had no idea where to go or find the necessary help. Mr Farzad was very responsive immediately, he offered me help and explained my possibilities when unfortunately I was full of fear and also did not know my rights in marriage and in the country, since I am also an immigrant and English is not my first language. From the beginning Peter was very professional, understanding and patient, there were times when I was falling apart emotionally and felt that I could not continue with the process anymore and Peter always had a huge patience and words of encouragement for me to keep going. Peter does his job with great professionalism but also with empathy towards his clients, he is very good at fighting for what is fair, thus showing great ethics and commitment. I am very happy with the results, Peter fought and worked on every detail of the case and did not let himself be intimidated by the other party at any time. I infinitely appreciate all his help and I would not hesitate to recommend them or go to them again in the future if I need legal help. Thank you very much!

SDPD wasn't giving up they wanted to take away my license, but Isaac wasn't giving up either. While other lawyers were telling me that I was going to lose my license and have some fines. SDPD set a court date and a DMV hearing, the DA didn't file on the first date and Isaac had the case dismissed the second time around. He also got me off on the DMV hearing, A very experienced lawyer that knows what he's doing, don't think twice about hiring Isaac very serious about his work and clients. I would definitely hire Isaac again; this could have affected me badly if I didn't hire Isaac.......

I can validate what others have stated on this site. I met and hired Dan in 2014 after releasing my first attorney. Needless to say, selecting him to represent me in my high profiled case was one of the best decisions that I ever made. Besides knowing his way around the courtroom and legal arena, Dan is the definition of what a human being should be and something his fellow attorneys should emulate. He cares so very much about his clients and puts forth countless hours on their behalf to make sure that they are well represented. I was facing almost five decades of incarceration and am now experiencing the free world in large part due to Dan Greene. You won't be disappointed if you select him to represent you.

It has been a long road for me for the past 5 years on probation. It was really tough, but with the help and expertise of Dan Greene I was able to survive and successfully completed my probation on May 10, 2020. He did an EXCEPTIONAL and PHENOMENAL job from start to finish. Dan cleared the pathway and guided me properly all the way till the end. He saved me from all my miseries especially with my immigration status as permanent resident that I could be facing deportation if not for Dan. It was really remarkable and turning point in my life and my family. He gave me life and freedom. June 6, 2020 I received an email from Dan informing me that he already filed the petition for dismissal of my case on June 3, 2020. I was so pleased and very happy about it that I did not even have to follow up with him. Everything was just automatic for Dan without me reminding him of anything. I am so proud to say that Dan has always been "GREAT and SUPERB". He is a tough lawyer with a heart. I truly admire his work ethics and excellency ever since he handled my case. Without any doubt in my mind I can assure you 100% that you can never go wrong with Dan if you need legal assistance. He is brilliant and top notch. It is hard to find a lawyer with that type of caliber like Dan. He is the "BEST of the BEST". Every penny you pay is worth it. He really work hard for it. He is very honest and sincere in dealing with his clients. With all that being said, surprisingly on August 11, 2020 I received another email from Dan with court documents attached congratulating me for my case was dismissed. While I was reading his message it was a total relief on my part and tears of joy. I told myself that finally everything is all done and now I can move forward for the better for only one reason because of the "GREATNESS" of Dan Greene. Thank you so much Dan for everything that you have done to me and my family. I will always remember this for the rest of my life because, without you I would not be here with my family right at this very moment. My wife and I are truly grateful and lucky to have you not only as our lawyer but as a true friend and most importantly you are already part of the family. It was an amazing journey with you although we had some rough times along the way but at the end of the day we got the best outcome. By the way, congratulations to you for receiving the award as 2019 Trial Lawyer of the year for San Diego. You deserve it. We are so proud of you. Keep up the good work as always. God bless you and your family. We hope to see you soon.

I've never spent this amount of money - in one go - on anything, but I've also never been more satisfied, in my life, with a purchase. Literally... I've never been happier with anything that I've spent money on. Dan Greene is a genius, (literally more than) an expert in his craft, a warrior in the courtroom, and a good man. I consider myself blessed by God to have ended up with Daniel F. Greene as my attorney. If you or a loved one is under fire from the San Diego District Attorney's Office, as I was, then I would unequivocally recommend Dan Greene & The Law Offices of Kerry Armstrong.

I hired Mr. Shapiro at a horrible time when my life fell apart very publicly because of a poor choice of mine. David was very helpful at shooting straight with me, as well as teaching me, my wife, and my family about the different nuances, definitions, and options of the legal system (which is a disappointingly designed system). I will never need to, but would hire him again in a heartbeat. He is unbelievably responsive to communication at all times, and his firm is filled with kind, helpful people. If you are looking at this review, best of luck to you, Shapiro is a good choice.

She is a Jurist with the added outstanding qualities of organization, problem-solving, laser focus, attention, and retention of details, and she responds and adapts to changing circumstances with composure.

After 50 years of driving I had my first accident and ended up having my license suspended. I am so thankful I hired Randall to represent me at my DMV hearing. He's experienced, personable and knows how to handle DMV suspensions and much more as his website details. Thanks so much Randall. I couldn't have done it without you!

My family and I would like to express our sincere appreciation and gratitude to my lawyer, Randall Page, and his partner, Lisa Wong, for the immediate resolution of my felony domestic violence case resulting in the outcome all in our favor. Upon identifying that my mental health issues played a significant role in the case, Randall immediately gathered all necessary psychiatric records and personally contacted my psychiatrist and requested her to prepare a report containing all pertinent details as required by the court in order to divert my case from criminal to mental health. The report was submitted and the petition for mental health diversion was granted at my next court hearing without any opposition from the DA. The team of Randall and Lisa always kept me informed about the status of my case at all times. They are never too busy to respond to my texts, emails, or phone calls, not mentioning they get the same thing from a number of my family members as well, and they too receive prompt responses every time. For us, this is HUGE! We are blessed to have Randall and Lisa on our side. It didn’t take too long for me to realize that I’m in good hands! Randall and Lisa, on behalf of my entire family, thank you very much from the bottom of our hearts...

Randall Page is the best criminal attorney ever! As a family man, he understands the value of family. I immediately felt a connection with him and attorney Lisa Wong. He was highly recommended by a cop who mentioned Randall Page helped not one but three of his friends and won! I went in with high hopes that he would get my case dismissed and he did. He battled a district attorney that would not budge. Let’s say my case took longer than expected. However, Randall Page was not one to quit until he got my case dismissed. The district attorney played hard ball but was no match for Randall Page. I was so relieved that he was able to get my case dismissed. I can now move forward with my life in peace. Thank you Randall Page and Lisa Wong from the bottom of my heart. Your hard work and dedication paid off.

I found that Ms. Scott was knowledgeable when it came to the custody case. Ms. Scott was always professional and genuinely cared about my dayghter and and myself. She was always informing me of the status of my case and different possibilites of the outcome. If I had questions I could call anytime and if she was not available she would call back as soon as she was able. Ms. Scott showed up to court dressed very professional and understood my wishes for custody. She would talk to me about an agreement and if the agreement was bad or not to my liking then she would voice that and not agree. Ms. Scott never pressered me to do or agree to anything, instead she recommended that before I would discuss anything to contact her. I had talked to a few lawyers in the area and all of them seemed to busy to sitdown and discuss my case, others would purse an expensive case. Ms. Scott made me feel comfortable and eager for me to dicuss my case. Ms. Scott would also inform me if doing something was a bad idea and educate me on a different approach, that was effective and saved time and money. I will use Ms. Scott to represent me in the future and I would recommended her to anyone needing legal assistance for a fair price and comfortable no pressure representation.

I am a father and I could not have gotten my daughter back in my arms without the tremendous work done by Alexis Scott. I now have my five-year-old daughter back in my life AND with full custody after her mom abducted her and fled the state in 2009. I wasted precious time and money with the wrong lawyer for over a year. When I hired Alexis and Tony Solare they fixed the mistakes made by my previous lawyer and covered all the bases to ensure that I received full physical and legal custody of my daughter. It can go unmentioned how extremely difficult it is for a father to receive custody of his child, but she did it! They were great to work with and very flexible on money matters. I recommend them with 100% confidence; my only wish was that I went to them first, so I wouldn’t have wasted time and money with my previous lawyer.

My wife and I have been working with her oldest brother (85 yrs old) to help him with a Will and a Living Trust. For the past 3 years we have traveled from our home in Durand Mi. to San Diego to provide him with advice and provide any help he may need to get everything right. The more we worked the more complicated and confusing this procedure became, OMG were we Stumped. This year we decided we needed professional help. So, what do you do when your 2000 miles away and don't really know anybody in a big city like San Diego, GOOGLE IT! That's exactly what we did and came up with a bunch of names of attorneys that claim to be the best anywhere. We started making calls to see who we liked the best and would be able to take care of our issues. We left voice mails and asked to have someone contact us to set up a meeting. We encountered a few who were vague and after listening to what we needed really didn’t seem too interested. Then Jason, called us and we were so happy with his attitude and wiliness to complete the needed documents on a very short notice. Everyone in that firm seemed to want to help us get everything right, signed, and registered they even worked through the weekend. So, we could rest assured that we wouldn't be caught up in a nightmare with the probate courts. Thank you, Jason, and Ashley what a great feeling to know we made the right decision when we chose you

The team was amazing in helping us with our will and trust! They were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, supportive and patient with us as we figure out the best path forward to suit some of our very particular needs. It’s obviously not a fun or easy topic to discuss and they were so understanding of that giving us options and suggestions that could be relevant to us. And allowing us the time we needed to sort things out amongst our family. Sometimes we wouldn’t be able to resolve things easily so we would be at a standstill for a while between me and my husband but they were great about checking in regularly without creating any additional pressure. We also had some personal and particular road blocks that we come up against and Ashley was wonderful in giving us options and guidance around that. Both she and Jason were so kind and personable and professional. We had talked to several places before coming here and I’m so glad we did!

Kerry proved to be everything you don't want your lawyer to be: Incompetent, unreachable, late to court hearings, and to top it off he has a huge ego! He calls from unknown number, to call him you have to go thru the switch board and leave msgs. Most of the time he doesn't even call back, and other times responds via email. His customer service skills does not jive with the rate he charges you. As he is amongst some of the more expensive attorneys. He collects all the money upfront, that should've been a red flag! Do yourself a service if you want legal representation stay away from this guy, you be better off with public defender than him

Lazy, Late, and incompetent. late for court twice. Had me plead guilty to a charge i wasn't guilty of. [Out of state residents are not required to register their weapons.] Cost me four times the actual amount of restitution. Poor communication. Tried emailing me that he was late for court because if he called his cell number would show up on my phone. [Who emails anything that needs immediate attention?] Told me to plead the sheet because he was too inept to negotiate a reasonable plea agreement. [why hire an Attorney if you;re just going to plead guilty to everything?] Charged me double the rate and said because it was two cases......after both were combined! If you are smart>DO NOT HIRE THIS IDIOT.

What a Sex Crime Lawyer Can Do for You

A sex crime lawyer specializes in defending individuals accused of sexual offenses, which can include charges such as sexual assault, rape, indecent exposure, child pornography, solicitation, and other related crimes. Being charged with a sex crime carries severe legal and social consequences, including potential imprisonment, mandatory registration as a sex offender, fines, and long-term stigma. A sex crime lawyer has the expertise to navigate the complex legal system, protect your rights, and develop a strategic defense to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.

When Should I Hire a Sex Crime Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a sex crime lawyer immediately if:

  • You are under investigation: If law enforcement contacts you for questioning or you become aware that you are a suspect in a sex crime investigation, it's crucial to seek legal representation before speaking with authorities.
  • You have been arrested or charged: Promptly hiring a lawyer upon arrest or formal charges allows for early intervention in your case, which can be critical for your defense.
  • Searches and seizures have occurred: If your property, such as your home or electronic devices, has been searched or seized in connection with a sex crime investigation, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
  • You are facing related legal issues: If you're dealing with restraining orders, custody disputes, or other legal matters stemming from the allegations, a lawyer can provide comprehensive legal support.

What Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Do?

A sex crime lawyer provides a range of legal services to defend and support you throughout the legal process:

  • Legal consultation and advice: They will explain the charges against you, outline your rights, and advise you on the best course of action.
  • Case investigation: The lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation, gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and identifying inconsistencies or weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
  • Defense strategy development: They will develop a tailored defense strategy, which may include challenging the credibility of evidence, disputing the legality of how evidence was obtained, or presenting alternative explanations.
  • Negotiating with prosecutors: Your lawyer can negotiate plea bargains or reduced charges when appropriate, aiming to minimize potential penalties.
  • Court representation: They will represent you in all court proceedings, including hearings, trials, and sentencing, advocating on your behalf.
  • Protecting your rights: The lawyer ensures that your constitutional rights are upheld throughout the legal process, including protection against unlawful searches, coerced confessions, or violations of due process.
  • Post-trial assistance: If necessary, they can assist with appeals, sentence modifications, or matters related to sex offender registration.

How Are Sex Crime Lawyers Paid?

Sex crime lawyers typically charge for their services in one of the following ways:

  • Hourly rate: Charging an hourly fee for the time spent working on your case. Rates can vary widely based on the lawyer's experience and location.
  • Flat fee: A set amount that covers specific services or the entirety of your case, which can provide cost predictability.
  • Retainer fee: An upfront payment from which the lawyer deducts hourly fees and expenses as they work on your case. You may need to replenish the retainer if it is exhausted.
  • Payment plans: Some lawyers offer payment arrangements to make their services more affordable over time.

It's important to discuss payment structures and fees during your initial consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.

How Much Does a Sex Crime Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a sex crime lawyer depends on various factors, including the complexity of the case, the severity of the charges, and the lawyer's experience. General cost estimates are:

  • Hourly rates: Typically range from $200 to $500 or more per hour.
  • Flat fees: For less complex cases, flat fees might range from $5,000 to $25,000.
  • Total costs: Complex cases involving extensive investigation or a trial can cost $25,000 to $100,000 or more.
  • Additional costs: May include expert witness fees, investigative expenses, and court fees.

Always request a detailed fee agreement and discuss potential additional costs to avoid unexpected expenses.

Top Questions to Ask a Sex Crime Lawyer

  1. What experience do you have handling sex crime cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has a strong background in defending against the specific charges you are facing.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure and get an estimate of the total cost involved.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect for my case?
    Ask for an honest assessment, including best-case and worst-case scenarios.
  4. What is your approach to defending sex crime charges?
    Learn about the strategies they might employ and how they plan to handle your defense.
  5. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates and availability.
  6. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understand the challenges you may face and how the lawyer plans to address them.
  7. How long do you expect the legal process to take?
    Get an estimated timeline based on the specifics of your case.

How to Check the Credibility of a Sex Crime Lawyer

  • Verify their license: Ensure the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state's bar association.
  • Experience and specialization: Look for a lawyer who specializes in criminal defense with a focus on sex crime cases.
  • Client reviews and testimonials: Research online reviews or ask for references to learn about other clients' experiences.
  • Professional memberships: Membership in organizations like the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL) can indicate a commitment to the field.
  • Disciplinary record: Check for any past disciplinary actions or complaints filed against the lawyer.
  • Consultation feedback: Use the initial consultation to assess their communication style, professionalism, and confidence in handling your case.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a sex crime lawyer, bring the following:

  • Detailed account of events: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, locations, and any conversations.
  • Legal documents: Bring all documents related to your case, such as:
    • Arrest records
    • Charging documents
    • Bail paperwork
    • Search warrants
    • Any correspondence from law enforcement or the court
  • Witness information: Provide names and contact information of any potential witnesses who can support your defense.
  • Evidence: Bring any physical evidence or records that may be relevant, such as emails, text messages, or social media interactions.
  • List of questions: Prepare questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer's experience.
  • Honesty: Be prepared to discuss all details openly and honestly; attorney-client privilege ensures confidentiality.
  • Goals and objectives: Be clear about what you hope to achieve, whether it's dismissing charges, reducing penalties, or addressing registration as a sex offender.

By being thoroughly prepared, you enable the lawyer to assess your situation effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your case.
