He’s absolutely the best!

I am so glad that attorney Miles handled my DUI case. He’s super professional and was always available to answer my texts/calls. He was very reassuring and did an amazing job. Thank you so much Miles :) Sina

Felony Dismissed/False charges by police

I was facing a felony & 3 misdemeanors. Falsely accused/charges exagerrated by police. Miles helped file a diversion motion after my felony was dismissed. The motion he wrote woth attention to detail was granted ALL charges to be dismissed, arrest sealed. I was facing potential imprisonme...nt down to 80 hrs community service. Miles is helpful, honest, understanding. He won't mislead you. Good attitude as well. Nice guy!

Knowledgeable and experienced attorney that resulted in best possible outcome

Miles is a knowledgeable and experienced attorney, and I would strongly recommend him to anyone that needs legal services. He provided me with some very helpful advice, and if I was ever in need of a defense lawyer he would be the first person I would call. I worked with him for nearly a year and the... result was the best possible outcome. Thank you, Miles.

Miles got my case dropped completely!

Miles is a miracle worker. I was charged with criminal trespassing after I tried to board my flight when the gate had already closed. It was a dumb decision on my part but I didn't have any criminal intent (I had a ticket and the plane was still docked at the gate so I thought I could get on but when... I opened opened the door the alarm went off). Despite my stupidity, Miles convinced the prosecutor that it was an honest mistake. The prosecutor dropped the charges completely and now I don't have a criminal record thanks to Miles. Miles was friendly, knowledgeable and got results. Highly highly recommend him as an attorney.

Felony prison sentence reduced to eventual expungement

He defending me in a case for half the price that other lawyers of his caliber were charging. You’re getting a high profile lawyer early in his career. His has enormous amounts of knowledge and experience for his age. He is also a good person. He interacts well with people which goes a long way for m...aking deals. I was facing 2-4 years in prison and a felony. He got my sentencing put off and a deal for diversion programs/classes and labor. If I do what I am supposed to then it gets reduced to a misdemeanor and no jail time. Unsupervised probation and after 2 more years, he will take care of the expungement process. Just think about that. Felony prison sentence reduced to potential misdemeanor expungement and labor hours, classes. The judge mentioned how people rarely get a second chance like I was given with those circumstances and the deal my lawyer worked out was a miracle. You’re investing in your future and getting an amazing deal. I’ve searched dozens of people and and ultimately chose Miles. He will be who I turn to for any legal help on the west coast.
