Monica Ramirez Khirallah

Becoming somewhat skeptical of our judicial system – when I was unfortunately facing (2) felony charges that originated from false allegations – I had little trust that justice would be found. Today, I have a renewed trust in our judicial system, because I received competent and diligent representati...on from Ms. Monica Ramirez Khirallah, who promptly negotiated the dismissal of said charges. That being said, if you ever find yourself in need of legal representation, it is a true blessing to have Ms. Monica Ramirez Khirallah representing you.

I was charged with a fabricated domestic violence charge in an obvious divorce strategy employed by my now ex-wife. While the charges were unfounded and untrue, the implications of a potential conviction would have been devastating both personally and professionally. Monica took over the case mid ...way through. She met with me, discussed the case and developed a plan and strategy which she flawlessly executed. She fought diligently for the truth and remained fully engaged with both me and the District Attorney’s office through the process. At trial Monica expertly handled the witnesses and exposed the lies and weakness of the case. Through her professional, compassionate, skillful representation and unswerving dedication, the District Attorney’s office dismissed the case fully. Should, God forbid, I or anyone else I know ever need representation in a criminal proceeding, I would unhesitatingly turn to Monica Khirallah.

After dealing with my public defender, and the poor response I got from him, I wanted to hire someone experienced in criminal law and had experience as a trial attorney. Those are key, when facing severely life altering charges. Monica seemed like the clear choice. When I contacted her, she was ext...remely responsive in her communications. She listened to me, which is something my public defender didn’t do. She had a plan from the beginning, to fight these charges every step of the way. She was kind, but also brutally honest. I needed that. She is incredibly driven and intelligent. She fights for her clients, and she fights for the truth. Those are essential in hiring an attorney to defend you against any type of criminal charge. You want someone that will fight for you, no matter how difficult the situation. She fought for a speedy trial. She was persistent in dealing with the DAs office. And on the day of the trial, the DA approached her and said she was dropping the charge, with a motion to suppress granted. That means the domestic violence charge, would be expunged from my record, like it never existed. It was amazing. She will forever be the only attorney I recommend people go to see, if they are ever faced with criminal charges. I owe her my freedom.

I had a severe violent charge against me that wasn’t appropriate for the situation. Monica exercised nothing but genuine care and diligence resulting with being able to demonstrate the full facts and background to the DA’s office. It was my choice to avoid trial and I based my decision on not truly... knowing what a jury will decide given the physical size differences involved between myself and the other party. Monica negotiated a much lesser charge (Class A misdemeanor) with non-adjudication upon one year of probation. I successfully completed the terms of my probation and have renewed confidence in my life moving forward. Monica is a true professional and I wouldn’t go with anyone else.
