DUI Defense
Our DUI defense service challenges blood alcohol testing accuracy, field sobriety test validity, and procedural compliance. We represent clients facing first-time or repeat offenses, wet reckless charges, and DMV license suspension hearings. Our attorneys leverage former prosecutorial experience to negotiate reduced penalties or secure case dismissals through evidence suppression and technical defenses.
Drug Defense
We defend against drug cultivation, possession, and trafficking charges under California Health & Safety Codes. Our strategies challenge unlawful search and seizure practices, laboratory testing errors, and prescription validity disputes. We negotiate diversion programs for eligible clients and contest asset forfeiture attempts while protecting clients' constitutional rights throughout the process.
Expungement
Our expungement service helps clients clear misdemeanor and felony convictions from public records after completing probation requirements. We guide clients through reducing wobbler felonies to misdemeanors, sealing juvenile records, and obtaining Certificates of Rehabilitation. This process enables professional license applications, firearm ownership restoration, and improved employment opportunities through legally clean background checks.
