Great Attorney!

I was in a desperate need of a good, reliable and trustworthy Attorney. How do you find an Attorney you can trust? I did hours of research and Mr. Arzili's name and positive reviews continued to come up within my search. I took this as a sign and went with my gut. I made the call to his office late a...t night on a Friday and the very next morning Saturday his Secretary returned my call, I went over the details of my husband's case and was very pleased with the price the Attorney was charging to retain his services, a flat fee with the option of a payment plan. With my husband being incarcerated & me being left alone with all the financial burdens and going from a 2 income household to only 1 - this was the perfect solution to our problem. I was almost in tears when Mr. Arzili took his case and was able to work with us on the financial end. Mr. Arzili showed up that very next Tuesday for my husbands court date (short notice) and began to work on his case. My husband was on probation on a previous case & is probation officer conducted a random search on my husbands day off from work & found a pair of nun-chucks that were in the house in a locked cabinet that were my husbands from years prior when he was taking martial arts classes. The Probation officer took him in for this, told my husband he would be out in 10 days as she was certain the Court would NOT file any charges & it turned out to be the total opposite of what we were told the Court did in fact file charges and here was my husband facing a Felony charge for the nun-chucks. I never realized that these were against the law for him to possess since he had them for years & was taking classes and had I known this they would never have been in my house. My husband was facing 8 years due to a previous Strike from when he was only 18 years old. In the end Mr. Arzili was able to get us the least possible sentence and had my husbands strike stricken with a 365 day county jail sentence with 6 months credit. It was finally an end to this nightmare and Mr. Arzili did a fantastic job! He definitely worked at this case very hard & felt for our situation. Mr. Arzili is a genuine person with a good heart. He is very honest and reliable. He never once gave us misleading or made promises of the outcome but he was straight forward, positive & very optimistic. We will be forever grateful to Mr. Arzili and I recommend his services to everyone in need. I have raved about Mr. Arzili to family and friends and I will continue to do so. Our experience was fantastic! Thank you Mr. Arzili

My light in the darkness

Mr Arzili was god sent to me and my family. He was my light in the darkness. Mr Arzili kept mine and my family’s best interest in mind before, during and after my case. Mr Arzili was not only my adviser but he was my rock when I needed something to lean on, and he never left my side. He turned a d...isastrous situation into a good one. You see, I have never found myself on the wrong side of the law until recently. The agonizing thought of having to go to jail, and leave my family to fend for themselves caused a lot of sleepless nights. I lie awake wondering how my wife was going to put food on the table and still pay for the mortgage and bills. Then my thoughts would fade to fear because I have never been to jail. Staring down a felony and not knowing what was going to happen started tearing me apart. So, I began looking for an attorney to represent me. After talking with a few lawyers I felt that they were only really interested in money and not me, my situation, nor my family. But, this was not the case with Mr. Arzili. He made me feel welcomed and he didn’t treat me different because I made a bad choice. In fact he helped me face my mistake and overcome it. I felt that he really cared about me, my situation and my family. He helped ease my stress of the unknown and vowed to stay by my side to the very end. His office was great. Alicia and Mr. Arzili both kept me informed on what was going on with the DA. As I mentioned before Mr Arzili turned a disastrous situation into a good one. Mr Arzili was able to have my felony reduced to a misdemeanor with NO jail time. Nothing short of a miracle in my book; as I said, God sent. Mr Arzili fought hard for me and achieved the best possible outcome. Mr Arzili’s services and guidance proved invaluable to me and my family.

Thank Goodness for Anthony!

Let me start by saying, Anthony Arzili made magic happen. I had received my first DUI unfortunately and I should have been in a whole lot of trouble. With his professionalism, experience, compassion, understanding and determination he was able to help my case greatly. He was very responsive in a time...ly matter to all my needs and questions. His fee was very reasonable for my wallet. His paralegal (Alicia) is also outstanding and very responsive to clients needs. I am grateful to have found him to represent me in one of my life worst events. He was always very positive and never judged me for my wrong doings. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a stand up Attorney who is not in the business to rip you off, but in fact for one that will fight for you and understands people make mistakes and not hold your wrong doings against you. Thank goodness for Anthony!

Would highly recommend him

This was my first offense for petty theft. Without Anthony's help it could have been a misdemeanor on my record, but he was able to get my case dismissed without needing to do any community service or anything. His secretary, Alicia is very sweet and sincere. She keeps you well informed on how your c...ase is going.

First time DUI with unknown BAC at time of hire

Review on service for First-time DUI LA County - City of Long Beach I had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful Anthony Arzili and his assistant, Alicia, during the very unfortunate circumstance I found myself in earlier this year in May. I had the added challenge of having refused the Breathalyz...er test at the time of my arrest and therefore submitted to a blood test. A blood test, that leaves you facing an impending court date with not even knowing the results of your blood test by the time of our first court date. This left me vary concerned and the night of my release, I began searching for the best lawyer to take my very unique case. Having researched as much as I could, I found that I really wanted to find a lawyer that was specific to the LA County and knew that special system and the people that worked in it. I was able to meet with three lawyers the next day and Anthony was one of them. Anthony and Alicia were very welcoming and accommodating to my schedule to see me. This was different from the other two lawyers that I had met with. During my meet with Anthony, he was very straightforward and did not make any promises. This was something that I was expecting and only got from him. It is hard to make promises without knowing the BAC one has at the time of arrest. I decided that after reviewing all of the potential outcomes of the situation, the many questions that I had about every part of the process (first court date, working with the DA, the DMV hearing, getting my license back after the verdict) and the costs associated with obtaining his counsel, Anthony was the prime choice for me. From keeping me updated on his progress with working with the DA, to making payments arrangements with Alicia and exchanging questions, Anthony was informative, details and responsiveness. I had never had to seek the counsel of a legal service provider before, so I was unsure on what to expect in terms of communication from them. I know that I was experiencing a lot of anxiety and I will be honest in that my expectation was to getting updates everyday, but in reality, those expectations are unrealistic. I had even expressed to Anthony that my anxiety was high and he had very sympathetic words and always kept things straightforward. Having a lawyer like this helped me keep my feet on the ground and my mind in order. Which I am sure that many in this situation, can relate to experiencing. Looking back on the experience with Anthony, I see that I got more than what I asked for. On our last day to meet, the final court date, Anthony showed up on time and really helped to take the reigns in the courtroom. He was calm and his demeanor really helped me stay positive and keep my nerves down. He assured me that he would be there to make the next appearance to show I was doing what the court asked, so that I did not have to miss work. This was very helpful. I intend to keep Anthony a part of this case to help me see it expunged from my record for good, in due time. If you want a lawyer that is going to keep it real, know the answers to literally ALL of your questions (I had a million, I promise you), and have a great support team like Alicia (it is just Anthony and Alicia that work for you!), then I definitely recommend Anthony. You get personal service and will be employing someone who knows the LA County system like nobody else could. He is a great person and helped me tremendously through this tough time in my life. Good luck to you out there reading this, you are good hands if you choose Anthony!
