About Eseigbe

If you need a criminal defense lawyer, you're probably going through a rough patch in your life. The last thing you need is a lawyer that promises you the moon but fails to deliver when it's time to act.

 

Unfortunately, I've had too many coversations with clients who've had poor experiences with lawyers in their past. They were guaranteed accessibility and dedication, instead received unreturned phone calls and empty promises.

 

I refuse to practice law that way. I take my duties to my clients very seriously.

 

As a client of mine, it is your right to communicate with me regularly, ask me questions about issues you don't understand and get my best effort in resolving your case.

 

Although, I never guarantee the end result in your case; I guarantee to work hard and do whatever I can to help you obtain the best resolution possible.

 

I love the work that I do and have surrounded myself with some of the top legal minds in the area. I also belong to a number of local and national bar associations and understand the importance of giving back to the community through pro bono services when I can.

Review Eseigbe Omofoma

You're in great hands!

Posted by

I am very fortunate to have been referred to Ese. He has been very personable and easy to contact. I am a worrier and his knowledge and attention to my situation has definitely reassured me. I have complete confidence in Ese representing me in court and having my best interest in mind. I highly recommend Ese Omofoma.

Hired attorney

great lawyer

Posted by

I give Ese my highest recommendation for being a defense lawyer who has a great fund of knowledge, is extremely professional, responsive and very personable. He is also good at communicating with opposing counsel and judge in a way that benefits his clients. Ese was also very effective at explaining complex issues as well as referring me to excellent sources to help with related aspects of my case

Hired attorney

Knowledgeable, concise, precise, and communicative

Posted by

Ese was kind enough to take on my case and was a pleasure to work with, on both a personal and professional level. He was timely in his communications, always providing the most up-to-date information, while also keeping me completely informed of the process itself as well as possible angles and outcomes. Not only is he professional and knowledgeable, he is friendly and personable (and not in a fake, snide out to get your money way), he's a genuinely good person that I had the honor of representing me.

Criminal Defense

I found the Omofoma Law Firm on yelp when I searched for a criminal defense lawyer for a family member. From what I hear, they were the best lawyers they had ever hired. I can't go into detail on the case, but all of the charges were dropped. When you need a solid lawyer on your side, I recommend them.

Amazing resource and knowledgable

Posted by

Mr. Omofoma is an incredible resource. He has provided advice and insight to my family and I on several occasions. He is quick, smart and always available. Have already recommended him to my closest friends.

Great Lawyer!

Posted by

If you're looking for a criminal defense lawyer in Los Angeles, I recommend speaking to and hiring Ese! I've consulted with him on a number of legal issues and he always goes above and beyond to make sure I'm taken care of. He's highly knowledgable about criminal law and makes himself available to answer all of my questions.

Money well spent

Posted by

I was pleasantly surprised at how empathetic and understanding Ese is. I have been cold calling attorneys for a week to get some help with resolving a warrant I had in the greater Los Angeles area for driving with a suspended license and FTP's . Every attorney that I contacted prior to stumbling upon Ese's avvo profile seemed untrustworthy. One guy quoted me $2500 as a flat rate without even knowing the details of my case. By the time I found Ese's profile I was convinced that I would not be able to afford an attorney and that I would have to try and go to the courthouse and resolve the issue myself(at the risk of getting arrested). Luckily, Ese was very understanding of my situation (currently unemployed) and charged me a reasonable price. The next day he went to the courthouse and got everything resolved for me. All I had to do was wait at home for his call. He kept me informed about my case and was very attentive, professional, and personable. I highly recommend Ese if you want an attorney that will devote 100 percent of his attention to you and your case.

Excellent and Personable Lawyer. Highly Recommend!

Posted by

I contacted The Omofoma Law Firm looking for some legal advice and was incredibly pleased with what I found. Ese was very responsive, empathetic and understanding. He was able to give me clear advice about my options in a way that was easy for me to digest and understand. Ese was very knowledgable but also able to communicate that knowledge to me in a way that was easy for me to comprehend. I would definitely recommend The Omofoma Law Firm.

When loosing is not an option

Posted by

Ese is one of the sharpest criminal defense lawyers you will find here in Los Angeles. He is not only very personable, but super knowledgable in criminal law and civil rights. I was looking for a lawyer that would devote 100% of his energy to my case. He gave me 110% and after a long and explosive trial that we just wrapped up, the court read back the NOT GUILTY verdicts I was hoping for! The level of stress one goes through trying to find the right lawyer can be overwhelming. I knew I found the right lawyer after my first conversation with him. I highly recommend the Omofoma Law Firm.

Couldn't be more thankful

Posted by

I can highly recommend Ese for any criminal defense lawyer needs in the Los Angeles area. He is highly knowledgable and it was clear through my whole experience with him that would find a way to get results for me. In the end I was honestly shocked in the results I received and couldn't be anymore thankful. On top of his legal pedigree he managed to relay information to me in a way that I could actually understand. I think anyone who has dealt with lawyers has at one point or another felt like they were being talked around with legal jargon. This was not the case with Ese he made sure I understood and was always quick to communicate. If I ever unfortunately have legal needs in the future I will not even think about using anyone besides Ese.
