I was facing Jail time, the Judge and DA wanted 145 days. Garrett Ogata went to bat for me, he pushed above and beyond the normal call of duty. After negotiating for what seemed like an eternity, but was really closer to a half an hour, the DA was only willing to come down to 30 days, which Garret...t said I’d only need to do 20. A phenomenal deal, but I was working, and I was not wanting ANY JAIL time! Where most attorneys would have force fed me the deal, which was fairly decent, Garrett Ogata heard me out, didn’t assume I was ungrateful and Instead of letting me abscond, sat with me as we hammered it out in the conference room for another thirty minutes or so. We walked out of the courthouse that day with me still having to do thirty days, but only on the weekends! Thanks to Garrett Ogata and his dedication to his client and his generally good rapport, he took command of the courtroom and basically dictated what would be best for his client and everyone fell over each other to comply.

The police setup a sting in one of the Vegas casinos. I got caught up in it and faced a criminal charge.  I knew I had to fight it because I didn't do what they alleged. I hired Garrett Ogata to help me understand the nature of the charge filed against me and the consequences of a criminal convict...ion. It turns out that the police had setup their sting to allow the charge to rise to the level of a felony. Garrett immediately subpoenaed casino surveillance video but was surprised that both the casino and the police said that there wasn't any available during the sting period, which would have proven that my actions weren't what the police documented. Through conversations about my life and work history, he was able to use the information to persuade the prosecutor that the alleged offense was completely opposite of my typical behavior. His relation with the prosecutor allowed him to talk with the prosecutor off to the side about the incompetence of the police sting by them not having surveillance evidence.  He also let them know that I was willing to fight the charge and that he would help me to craft the best strategy for my defense. He helped me get out of the charge and is working to seal my arrest record. If you're facing a legal problem, you definately should hire Attorney Garrett Ogata as your lawyer.

A big THANKYOU to Garrett Ogata and staff. We contacted the office due to a DUI arrest. He promptly called us back while he was on vacation. He explained the process, what to expect and did exactly what he said he would. He is dedication, knowledge and attention to detail resulted in a positive outc...ome for us. His office staff was very professional and courteous.

My husband and I hired Mr.Ogata and we couldn’t be more pleased. Being an imigrant can make it confusing to understand US laws, but he was patient and his explanations were clear and helpful. Mr. Ogata did a wonderful job representing my husband and making sure he didn’t spend a single night in jail.... I believe in the system a little more now having met a this amazing professional.

Thank you Garrett for all of your hard work. I want to thank your staff for being on point with every detail. When someone puts you on trial and you are fighting for your life it is important to have somebody who cares about you and your issue. Garrett made my problem his problem. I believe he knows ...the law inside and out and is extremely competent. He knew how to deal with the court staff and fought for every inch on the battlefield . Personally, everything in my life was going wrong at exactly the same time and Garrett delivered to me a victory. Hire him! JM.
