Firm Focus and History
The firm was established in 1998 in the Sunset & Vine towers in Los Angeles. The firm partnered up with a famous immigration and civil lawyer on Mid-Wilshire. The firm experienced tremendous success after the split. The firm has been in Downtown since 1992 where we continue to help people every day with all kinds of legal situations.
Located in the Heart of Downtown Los Angeles, the Extreme Justice team and I are dedicated, experienced and hardworking advocates for a select group of clients. I have dedicated my entire legal career to getting my clients Extreme Justice for their legal situation. I am the founder of the Center for Extreme Justice and have worked tirelessly to achieve Extreme Justice for my clients.
With a razor-sharp focus on maximizing my client's recovery in a timely manner or shortening any jail exposure, I painstakingly research your case, gain a keen understanding of what you need, and vigorously pursue the plan of action.
By accepting only a select group of cases each year, I am known for my ability to aggressively pursue each case, excelling in achieving superior results at a fast pace which clients appreciate. I am truly a "lawyer's lawyer." I have been consulted by countless firms and attorneys in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas, on their most complex, difficult and often successful cases. My courtroom success has earned me an outstanding reputation among his colleagues and peers.
We do Criminal Law (both State and Federal), Family Law, Immigration, Employment Litigation, Civil Litigation, and class actions. We also protect the elderly and dependent adults. We also can help with your estate planning needs. If you have a criminal record we often can help clear that up as well.
The firm provides a full range of legal services that bring about the best possible results for his clients. I practice in California in all State and Federal Courts, at the trial and appellate court levels. I am an active member of several State and Federal organizations. It's time for me to bring you Extreme Justice.
Previous Employment Summary
Worked for a famous criminal lawyer with 45 years of experience for 1 year. Got tired of criminal law then went into insurance defense work for a year. After I did plaintiff work for a year then went on my own, where I have done a wide array of litigation cases.
Activities and Awards
I have participated in many trial schools and helped in judging other lawyers in their performance at trial.
What is your opinion regarding clients educating themselves on legal issues?
I think it is great, "an informed client is a great client," but being informed is not necessary if you hire a competent lawyer to do the job. With a good lawyer you are on "easy street."
Are you willing to review documents prepared by clients?
I am willing to review documents. If more than ten usually a consultation is charged.
Are you willing to coach clients who want to represent themselves?
Willing to give advice over the phone for a certain fee to help clients who want to represent themselves, so they can know what to expect.
Why did you decide to be a lawyer?
I became a lawyer because I saw a lot of injustice, people getting shuffled around in the system. I wanted to be an answer to their "silent cries" for help and hope. I believe I am helping people a little every day.
What work experience and education helps you be a better lawyer?
I have a [remove a] tremendously diverse legal experience and I bring that to the table. From clerking in the Federal Courts to litigating a wide variety of civil and criminal cases, I feel I have seen it all throughout my legal career. I am able to bring a lot of trial experience and knowledge to your legal problem.
Why did you decide on your primary area of practice?
I look at what interests me and where I can help the most people.
What do you like best about your career?
My greatest joy is helping people - this is the greatest satisfaction that I get being a lawyer.
