Parent of Client

My child was involved in a physical altercation after being assaulted at a party. My child was charged with assault F1 charge, a Simple Assault charge and Harassment charge. Finger printed and mug shot processed and that should have NEVER taken place. However, after meeting with Joe Nahas we new he w...as the man we needed and best advocate that would pursue justice in this matter. After hiring Joe as our attorney he thoroughly reviewed all the facts surrounding the entirety of the case and he immediately took action to properly litigate and mediate on behalf of (my child) his clients defense. Joe Nahas and his entire legal team is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and genuine. No civil person ever wishes to be in a criminal defense crisis, but if you or someone you know is involved in a criminal dilemma, I highly recommend Joe Nahas Law. He is worth every dollar of the cost to retain and hire him no matter the charge your facing. He is a NO NONSENSE individual that truly believes in justice and fights for his clients. He said to my child “they have to get through me to get to you and that’s NOT HAPPENING!” He and his entire staff led and guided us throughout this entire ordeal and their reassurance and expertise got us through every moment. The end result was all charges dropped/dismissed and only had to pay a fine. My family and I can’t begin to express how grateful we are for Joe Nahas and his entire legal staff. #BESTCRIMINALDEFENSEATTORNEY

Excellent

I have used Attorney Nahas three times so far for my sons. Everytime he has come through and won the case. I would not even consider using any other attorney. He will go above and beyond for his clients. His office staff is also the best in the field. Excellence across the board.

NAHAS LAW GOES THE EXTRA MILE

I was a police officer facing criminal charges after a nasty divorce involving many accusations. My previous attorney told me I should just settle and take a plea deal. A police officer friend referred me to Attorney Joe Nahas and told me that Joe would fight. And fight he did, from day 1 Joe dove... into this case and was 100% honest about everything. I have been around court rooms and lawyers for many years working as a cop, and I have never seen a defense attorney on the level of Joe Nahas. He is extremely intelligent, has an excellent work ethic, and truly cares about your case. Joe is a tough fighter and will go the distance with you. My case went on for a long time due to Covid 19, and he was there every step of the way. Joe was well prepared for trial and knew the case inside and out. Joe handles himself extremely well in the court room and he is well respected. His cross examination skills are the best I've seen. Ultimately I was found Not Guilty on all charges and was able to clear my name and resume life thanks to Joe. His staff is incredible and always gave me updates throughout the process. Anytime I called, I was greeted kindly and my thoughts were always important to them. With their support, it allowed us to prepare extremely well, its a winning team at Nahas Law !

TOP NOTCH !

Easily the best. I was facing some serious charges for a second time. Throughout the entire process, Attorney Nahas was responsive, diligent, and very honest about the case. He also was kind and caring, making it a little easier during a very stressful time. Eventually my case was dismissed and I kno...w this would not have been the outcome had he not been my attorney. His office admins are also AMAZING. When I first called the office to schedule a consult, these women were so helpful and kind about everything!! The entire office is aces!

An attorney you can trust.

I hired attorney nahas for 2 cases, one in which is still pending. I represented myself pro se and entered a guilty plea for one count of resisting arrest which could very well have possibly sent me to state prison due to my prior record score. As soon as i sat down to discuss the matter with him he ...was right on the phone calling multiple people trying to figure this case out. It was very beneficial he had a plea deal arranged for me at sentencing after i withdrew the original plea i agreed to. 3 felonies and various misdemeanors were dropped and i plead out to 1 summary and a $100 fine. Awesome. The nature of the charges i still have pending are very serious and can very well put me away until my 18 month old daughter is old enough to be getting married. However knowing i have a good team that has my back to represent me gives me a little bit of peace of mind and allows me to get a little bit of rest at night sometimes. I would never recommend another attorney. Years ago i hired an attorney for the same cost for the retainer and he did absolutely nothing to fight for me. I was put in jail for 5 months for an underage drinking charge and scheduled for court on a saturday (obviously there is no such thing as court on a saturday). And it took 5 months for him to even make an attempt to discuss the matter with the district attorney. That is certainly not the case with Mr. Nahas. And also his assistant shirley is a very kind person and always on top of everything 100%. If youre going to hire an attorney look no further.
