This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Life Saver...literately!!!!

Daniel is a God sent! He was able to get me off from 2 counts of attempted murder, aggravated assault, and other charges...multiple life sentences!!!!! All charges were dropped after a 2 year battle thanks to Daniel.

highly knowlodgable

I truly believe this attorney is very honest and knowledgable i think these days all u find, talking about money without knowing anything about the case he will not be retained till he personally knows he can handle the case and has lots of experience in that field to have u win... i highly recommend... him in criminal matters you will not regret his has been my attorney for several criminal issues in several different years and i say i have not ever serve jail even for 1 day...........good luck

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I wholeheartedly endorse Mr. Behesnilian. I have referred numerous clients of mine who had criminal issues to Mr. Behesnilian's office, including those who needed post-conviction relief, and to date, all of them have been satisfied with his services. He is also very careful to make sure his clients' best interests are represented, including researching fully any possible adverse immigration consequences, which is why I feel confident when I refer a client to him that the client will be satisfied with his legal services."
