The best DUI outcome thanks to Attorney Eric!

I am incredibly grateful to have had Eric Renslo represent me during one of the most overwhelming and challenging times of my life. Facing a DUI charge for the first time, especially with a high BAC, was not only frightening but also emotionally taxing. From our very first meeting, Eric treated me wi...th respect, compassion, and professionalism. He never made me feel ashamed of my situation—instead, he provided clarity, reassurance, and unwavering support every step of the way. Eric’s strategic approach, attention to detail, and persistence in court were truly remarkable. He worked tirelessly to negotiate and delay when necessary, ultimately achieving an outcome I never thought possible. Through his efforts, my DUI charges were dismissed and reduced to a reckless driving charge. I was not assigned community service or a morgue program—just the M.A.D. program and a standard fine. This result was far more favorable than I could have ever hoped for, and it is a direct reflection of Eric’s skill and dedication. Beyond his legal expertise, what stood out most was Eric’s genuine care for my well-being. He helped me navigate this process not just legally, but emotionally. I will always remember the calm and confidence he brought to a situation that once felt so uncertain. Thank you, Eric Renslo, for your exceptional representation and for being a steady, guiding presence during such a difficult chapter. It is clear that he approaches each case with the same level of dedication and care, despite the magnitude of charges you are facing. If you’re in need of a criminal defense attorney, Eric is your guy!

Got My DUI down to Reckless Driving and went out of his way to help me out.

Mr Renslo is an absolutely incredible attorney, he defended me in a DUI case for a very reasonable retainer fee, and even still continued to help me out with much more than he needed to. I had to delay my enrollment in driver's Education classes due to external circumstances, but even with that issu...e, he talked with the Judge and the Prosecutor to ensure that no further legal action would be taken against me. Even though they easily could have taken more action against me, Eric ensured that I was in good standing and well taken care of, despite the difficulties I was going through at the time.

The Lawyer You Want!

I had a DUI case and a resisting arrest charge. Although this was my first offense, the city where I was pulled over and ticketed is known for being very strict. However, Eric was a formidable advocate. He successfully got one of my DUI counts dropped and the resisting arrest charge reduced. His comm...unication and strategy were impeccable. I was referred to him, and I will always recommend him to others.

Excellent Lawyer

I am truly grateful I hired Eric Renslo as my attorney. He went above and beyond on my 2nd DUI case and always kept me informed on everything during my case. I genuinely felt he cared for me as he pushed me and advised me on what steps I should take to get the best result in my situation. Communicat...ion was exceptional and always called to check in before and after court dates, making sure he was answering any questions or concerns I might have. If you are ever in need of a lawyer that genuinely cares about his clients I would choose Eric Renslo 100%

DUI case

I just wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to the one and only attorney Eric Renslo. He was absolutely amazing throughout my DUI case, providing me with expert guidance, support, and fighting for my best interests. I truly appreciate his dedication, hard work, and the hours he put... into my case. Thanks to his expertise, words can’t even explain how grateful I am that I got my case dismissed. I am forever grateful for his commitment and the positive impact he had on my life. Thank you, attorney. P.S he really is the trial god.

Criminal defense lawyer | Oct 30

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I first met Mr. Renso back when I was a criminal prosecutor in Los Angeles. I always had a profound respect for him because he was one of the select few of my colleagues that were eager to do jury trials--many attorneys are actually hesitant to do jury trials because of how arduous and stressful they can be. I worked on several matters with Mr. Renslo as opposing counsel when I became a criminal defense attorney. He is a very smart and resourceful attorney and is very skillful in jury trials. I am happy he switched over to the defense bar, where a person of his skill and desire to help people truly belongs. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anybody who needs a great advocate on their side."

"I knew Eric Renslo during my time as a prosecutor, and he is absolutely one of the best trial lawyers. Even after I left the prosecutor's office, Eric was always very fair and very easy to work with. I have no doubt that Eric will be a fantastic edition to the Criminal Defense Bar, and valuable resource for anyone facing criminal allegations. Eric also went to one of the top law schools in the nation, and you can tell by the quality of his work. HIGHLY ENDORSE!"
