Fought 3 year battle against a stacked legal system

I was wrongfully accused of selling prescription drugs, a serious accusation that could have sent me to prison for decades and ended my medical career I worked so hard for. The entire ordeal was incredibly scary, like an invisible guillotine hanging over my head that can come down any moment. Though ...it’s my own fault for putting myself in the mess, I was not prepared for how viciously the system treated me. Seeking help with pending charges, I first found out about Rodriguez Law Group by reading online reviews and his blog on the website. After telling Mr. Rodriguez my case, he smiled confidently and comforted me that he has the case under control. He informed me the best case scenario and range of outcomes of my case, which was very reassuring as it ruled out the possibility my life getting destroyed by the false accusations (my case seemed pretty hopeless at the time). There was a calming manner about him. This gave me faith to stop thinking about my life-altering situation and just leave it all to him, while I get back to normal life with my family. The charges were filed as expected. Despite the Torrance district attorney’s lack of evidence, the young prosecutors were aggressive indeed. They asked for exorbitant bail amounts while making outright lies about things I did, but Mr. Rodriguez confidently got the bail knocked down to something minuscule. The prosecution were not reasonable to discussion, therefore the case dragged on for ages. Whereas a less experienced attorney would have agreed to the terrible plea offers I got, Mr. Rodriguez knew we could do better and rejected them. The prosecutors promptly added 3 more felony charges to spite us after rejecting their plea offers, and even argued that I violated bail conditions. It was during the prelim hearing that Mr. Rodriguez aggressively took apart the prosecution’s case. He cross examined the detective and uncovered holes in their case. The judge tossed out 5 charges and pointed out serious issues in the remaining charges. This demoralized the prosecution and was the turning point in my case. The prosecution was getting frustrated and literally yelling and screaming at us to give up the fight. I did not understand their witch hunt against me given there were no victims. Yet my case continued to drag on, and it seemed headed for trial. Good thing Mr. Rodriguez is a trial attorney and therefore knew a trial would favor my side. It was always in our back pocket and we did some preparation. After many back and forth phone calls, he showed the prosecution how the case would play out, put together a mitigation package, and finally got the charges down to a minor misdemeanor charge which can quickly be expunged (which is covered by the original fee). I am so grateful with this result. It’s true we could have kept fighting for an outright win, but it would have been time consuming and costly, and the open case was keeping me unemployed. We need more people like Mr. Rodriguez to protect ordinary citizens against a stacked system. Powerful forces can destroy our lives at any moment and we have no recourse. Unfortunately in our punitive criminal justice system, you need the best defense attorney possible to get justice, or you can go to prison for decades over false accusations. I sincerely believe this to be true. Lesser attorneys would not even know what is possible in a case that looks hopeless, when the charges are very serious, when fragments of evidence appear like indisputable evidence. I am so blessed to come across Mr. Rodriguez. The supporting staff were also wonderful. Hiring Rodriguez Law Group was the best decision of my life. Now I get to be with my family and live happy!

Professional & Intelligent...Saved my life!

Mr. Ambrosio Rodriguez is an outstanding attorney with an impressive amount of experience under his belt, both as a former Senior DA, and as a Criminal Defense Attorney. I never expected to be in a position requiring legal counsel (facing two felony counts and 15-25 years in prison) and had no idea w...hat to expect, but Mr. Rodriguez was very knowledgeable, straightforward and most importantly compassionate during this difficult time. From our first conversation I was immediately put at ease. Over a course of 26 mouths I met with him multiple times and each time he was extremely knowledgeable with how to properly and effectively defend me. He seemed to be one step ahead of the game. Mr. Rodriguez was always upfront and honest about all the possible outcomes of my case. He made himself available and contacting him was never an issue. All of my calls were promptly addressed; and never once did I feel alone or unsure of what was transpiring in the case. Finally, after 26 months I was able to avoid any jail time. I am profoundly grateful to Mr. Rodriguez and his team for their hard tireless work on my case and would recommend The Rodriguez Law Group to anyone in need of legal representation. I can’t forget to mention the staff at The Rodriguez Law Group who are amazingly caring, understanding and professional. They all handled my case with incredible detail in order to obtain the best possible result…5-star rating on them alone!

Best Choice in Attorney

I recently found myself in need to hire a criminal defense attorney. I searched the internet, and decided on 4 attorneys to check out to see which one I felt was best for me. I chose one of the 4 and had them e-mail me a contract to sign. I filled out the contract, which included payment information.... Then at the last minute, I decided to search the internet again just to confirm my decision before I e-mailed the contract back. This search revealed “The Rodriguez Law Group” with an address in down town Las Angeles. This law group did not show up during my earlier search, so I decided to check out their website. I was impressed with their website, so I called to set up an appointment for a free consultation. I told the receptionist that I was coming from Orange County and could not make it to their off by 4:00PM., Because of the distance and it was Friday afternoon. The receptionist was very nice and polite, and checked with an attorney, then said they could accommodated my needs and set an appointment for me at 6:30PM that night. Upon arriving at their office, I was met by Associate Attorney Nathan H. Soleimani, who introduced himself, then took me into his office. I was a Little nervous and agitated, as I explained my circumstances to Nathan, who calmed me down and reassured me that he was there to help me, and to take all the time I needed to go over my case. Nathan was very professional, patient and reassuring throughout our conversation. Once I finished explaining my case to Nathan, he gave me his opinion of my case, and told me how he felt my case should be handled, because my first court date was this coming Tuesday. Nathen then went over the cost for his services and payment options. I asked Nathan, why I should hire him and his law firm, instead of the other law firm that I previously mentioned. The other law firm was closer to the court, and half the price his firm was going to charge me. Nathan explained to me with great confidence, that he was a bulldog and would attack my case aggressively and get out ahead of it to try to prevent the case form actually being filed. Nathan also talked about his knowledge of the law regarding my case, his familiarity with the court system, and his plan of action for my case. Based on my meeting with Nathan, I formed the opinion that he would be the best attorney to represent me in court, so I decided to hire The Rodriguez Law Group, with Nathan representing me. The following Monday morning, Nathan called me, and advised that he had already starting working on my case. Nathan had called the court, and went over the elements of my case. After his conversation, he was told that my case would not be filed, that it was being rejected by the district attorney’s office. Nathan told me what I needed to do to obtain an official written rejection. I know that my case was very minor, however it was very important to me,, and it was important that my record remain clean. Nathan made me fell that my case was as equally important to him and the law firm he represents. I had the utmost confidence that if my case went before the court, that Nathan would have represented me and clearing me of any and all charges. I would highly recommend The Rodriguez Law Firm, and Associate Attorney Nathan H. Soleimani. I will keep their business card on had in the event I need a defense attorney in the future. Much Thanks

Professional, Intelligent and Life Changing

Mr. Rodriguez truly changed the course of my life. His level of professionalism, knowledge and deep caring attitude made this horrific experience one of trust, confidence and guidance. When District Attorneys know the defendant's lawyer is truly invested, passionate and fights for just punishment... from the bottom of their heart; it truly makes a difference in the case. I would never have been able to receive the plea-deal that was agreed without Amrbosio's guidance and expertise. Through our time together, I truly can say that I have met one of the best and most kindest professionals working in today's world. Thank you Mr. Rodriguez for helping protect my life and securing my family's wellbeing. I would recommend his services above all else.

A Friend and a Lawyer.

If you are reading this review, it is because you have entered a difficult time in your life. Let this review give you comfort and relief knowing your difficult time can be improved if you decide to retain the services of Mr. Rodriguez. Experience, Intelligence and Character are all great description... of Mr. Rodriguez; however, I would rather describe him as a friend. I decided to retain the services after our first consultation. After being recommended by a family friend, I decided to schedule an appointment. Entering his downtown LA office, with a beautiful view of the LA night lights, I felt I was entering the set of a Hollywood movie. Although the setting was beautiful, the plot was not. With my wife by my side, I began to recount my incident. My emotions flooded my face in the form of tears and the strong man I thought I was faded into the chair. As I fell deeper into an uncontrollable cry for help, Mr. Ambrosio cautiously walked over and held gave me the embrace of a friend. That was all I needed to know he was concerned with my wellbeing and not just the financial gain. In a world filled with ambition and corruption, I was made feel secure and safe in his presence. Day after day, month after month, Mr. Ambrosio held his position on my case with poise, fighting the badgering or the DA and the timeframe of the Judge, exercising all my legal rights as a defendant. Ultimately, he won over both and reached a positive outcome to my case. If you do decide to retain Mr. Ambrosio, please understand he is a busy man, you are not his only case, but he does have your best interest in mind. With supporting staff like Debbie, Nathan, Erick and many others, you are well protected. You have to have faith in his ability and patience in this process. Honesty and Integrity are the fundamental pillars that characterize the Rodriguez Law group.

"I worked with Ambrosio as a fellow Deputy District Attorney for nearly six years . . . he’s a great attorney. Ambrosio’s legal knowledge, modesty, and charm, coupled with his power of persuasion, afford him the ability to connect with judges and juries alike. I have personally seen Ambrosio win cases that others thought were unwinnable. I’ve heard jurors speak about his no-nonsense approach to the law and proving the elements in favor of his case. I’ve talked with judges who gave glowing reviews of his presentation of evidence and closing arguments. Myself and coworkers alike viewed Ambrosio as the “go-to-guy” when we needed advise on our own trials. Ambrosio has helped me with several of my cases, providing superior insight and trial strategy. Even today, I call him for advice. If ever I need the assistance of a criminal defense attorney, I would call Ambrosio first; without a doubt."
