The best at what they do!
Wadi is an excellent attorney! And he has amazing staff there to help as well! He’s very professional, diligent, and sharp. He worked hard to get me the best plea deal after I was offered a bad deal. He really made the best out of an uncomfortable situation for me! I am very grateful and would highly recommend this man to be by your side in court!

Wadi is the Best Ever
I dont know about you but the idea of needing an attorney for any kind of matter is scary to me. For a criminal issue it was ten fold. I needed someone who woud fight for me to help everyone understand the mitigation and true story as the other party was not very truthful. Wadi and team were great because they took time to understand my side and they gave great advice on how to best deal with this type of case. They kept focused on the desired outcome and they communicated with me at every turn. Final disposition was perfect and I could not ask for better. I you need an attorney Muhaisen and Muhaisen is the place to go.

Review of Services
Wadi was always concerned about how we, his clients, were doing, as well as working on our case. He or Amanda were always available to contact if we had concerns or questions about the process, which helped immensely, since we had never been through anything like that before. They understood what we wanted as an outcome to our case, and worked diligently toward that goal---and achieved it! We couldn't be happier with the representation we got from the firm and Wadi and Amanda, specifically.

Unmatched Service, Respect and Loyalty
Wadi and the folks at Muhaisen and Muhaisen are unmatched. I can't fully explain what a wonderful experience we had with this firm. From day one, we were made to feel like important clients. There was never a moment in our process where we didn't feel protected, respected, and taken care of. It's daunting to have to seek legal counsel for various things, but this process made us feel so comfortable. At the end of the day, we were floored with the results of our case and can't say enough about how hard Wadi and his team worked to find the best possible result for us. We are so glad to have found him and he will be the first person we call should we ever need legal aide again. Thank you, Wadi!

I appreciated Mr. Muhaisen's assistance with my case. I have never previously been in trouble, and he was willing to step up and humanize me to the DA and court. Top notch representation.

Excellent choice for criminal defense
Wadi Muhaisen goes above and beyond. His knowledge and professionalism is complimented by his genuine, caring approach which made us feel very comfortable dealing with Wadi. Mr. Muhaisen worked a minor miracle with the very serious charges leveled against a family member. What could have haunted our son for the rest of his life is no longer there. We highly recommend Mr. Wadi Muhaisen to others in need of a criminal defense attorney.

Seriously the BEST.
Ok, he's not only a great human, but an amazing attorney. He is so smart, fair and hard working. He's a great guy too! He made me feel like family at his office and his staff was warm and inviting. I never ever felt like I had to worry about anything. We won my case and he always stayed kind and humble. I would take Wadi's advice on probably anything in life, if I;m being honest. Definitely one of the best people I've ever met. You will become friends with him after your case is over!! trust me.

Great professional service and positive results
I was arrested and sentenced for violation of protection order. Wadi Muhaisen successfully bailed me out in a minimal amount. Later at court, he brilliantly proved my innocence and therefore the district attorney dismissed my case - before the trial even started! Thank you for Wadi Muhaisen and his great team!
