About that one time I got into a bit of trouble...

To be honest, I've never been in trouble with the law before. As one fateful night would have it, I was stopped at a DUI checkpoint last November. I felt like my world had crumbled that evening. While I had no idea how to handle the aftermath of such a situation, I knew that I was going to need a...n attorney. I started searching right away and had several consultations. Let me just say this: it was a horrible experience. I was already a nervous wreck due to the event itself and the consultations I’d had with multiple attorneys wasn’t making me feel any better. I felt like I was being treated as though I was unintelligent and like I was just another number to these people that deal with these cases so often they could care less about the individuals seeking help. I also never came across anyone who could give me a direct answer as to what the cost of representation would be. I was starting to feel pretty discouraged about the whole mess. That is, until a friend recommended Caesar. Wow, everything changed from that point forward. Here’s why: 1. He was the first and ONLY attorney to ask during consultation how I was feeling and if I was doing okay. Other individuals could take a serious lesson from this. A little bit of humility goes a long way. 2. When I first contacted him, he returned my call within the hour and was willing to answer any questions I initially had over the phone, even before a face to face consultation. I never got this treatment from the other attorneys. Getting them to answer questions was like pulling teeth. 3. He offered me a set price that worked within my budget. There were no extra surprises and he was very understanding in regards to my financial situation. Black and white. Simple. Straightforward. 4. I never felt like I was left in the dark about anything. I was consistently informed of everything that was going on with my case. He explained everything to me very well and if I had questions they were always thoroughly answered. 5. He is completely reachable and unbelievably easy to talk to. 6. My case was handled quickly and efficiently. I never once felt like he was dragging his feet on anything. 7. Overall, it was so refreshing to deal with an individual that truly kept my nerves in check during the entire process. The best part is, my case turned out even better than I could have ever hoped for. While other attorneys were basically telling me, “Sorry, you’re getting charged with a DUI, sucks for you,” Caesar never took this approach. While he was honest with me about all possible outcomes he, unlike others, hadn’t reserved me to the gallows just yet. And guess what? I didn’t end up getting charged with a DUI. I am overjoyed to report that the sentence was reduced to reckless driving due to Caesar’s talent. I truly could not have asked for better representation and I will be forever grateful toward him for simply being an awesome person.

Amazing!

I was going to be arrested in about June 2012 for Embezzlement, Grand Larceny, Theft, and a few other accounts. I had already been consulted by a few different lawyers and I pretty much had no hope. Then my father in law heard from a close friend that Mr. Almase was a pretty good lawyer and so I went... to him since I figured I had nothing else to lose. Let's just say "pretty good" was an understatement. Mr. Almase was amazing through the whole process. He followed through, he was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do, what to say so that I could only be in probation for just under three years. He was always straight forward with everything. He gave me hope even though he'd tell me that it wasn't 100% until the day of court but I knew then that Mr. Almase was going to make sure I got out of jail. He also kept his word when he told me to give him a call when I was done with probation so that he could file a motion with the court to bring my charges down. He brought all of my charges down to one simple misdemeanor in January 2016. I am very satisfied with his service through these years and I would recommend him to anyone that needs help.

A lawyer that genuinely cares and will fight for you

I retained Caesar back in June of 2012 through the recommendation of a close family friend. I was facing 1 to 6 years each on three counts of Assault with a Deadly Weapon with special circumstances when I lost my temper defending my children from some horrible people. I was scared to say the least du...e to having previous legal troubles in my early adult life. When I met with Caesar, and after he, I, and my wife spoke for nearly an hour regarding my situation, I knew he was an individual that didn't see me as just another paying customer, but as someone who genuinely cared, and who was going to fight for me. Caesar deserves a 20 rating in my opinion, as you will never find another attorney, or human being that will show you genuine compassion and go above and beyond for his clients. Caesar was able to get my charges greatly reduced to a simple gross-misdemeanor with a small fine and some counseling which I strongly believe benefited me long term and saved me from having a serious blemish on my record. I would highly recommend Caesar if you're seeking legal counsel. You'll be happy you did; Lord knows I am. Hire an attorney that treats you like family, follows up, and follows through. That attorney is Caesar Almase hands down.

My case was considerably difficult

I caught a serious case some years ago, when the state of Nevada appointed me a public attorney they instantly looked at me with disgust & judgement. I was not exactly thrilled of this so my family looked into attorneys & found Mr. Almase through my union. When I spoke to Mr. Almase about my case he ...did not pass judgement & only focused on the positives. I was relived that he was able to help me as well as guide me to make good decisions as we proceed with my case. Though I did have two more cases after that he helped me through those difficult times & come out with more than decent deals than I would of imagined. I have no doubt about his ability to defend any type of case.

Caesar was a God Send to us

My son was in a car accident and had gotten a DUI. Caesar was recommended to me and he did a great job clearing my son's name. My son then proceeded to get in trouble with stealing from a pharmacy he worked at and throughout the long ordeal, my son has completely turned his life around and Caesar w...as able to get his name cleared. Now my son can move on in his life after learning a very hard lesson. I have recommended Caesar to friends and he has always done a great job. I have even had occasion to call him on a weekend and in the evening and he always answers or gets back to me right away. I will be eternally grateful for all of the hard work and caring Caesar put into my son's issues and we were treated with respect. Thank you Caesar for all you have done for my family.
