Mr. Arzili dismissed both my criminal charges

Let’s see…I’ll start off by saying, that I’m a normal God-fearing, taxpaying citizen of the United States. However, my world was suddenly flipped upside down after I was charged with two false criminal charges. Entering a completely new world, I did the best homework I could, including “interviewin...g” 4 criminal defense attorneys in person, and many more over the phone. I also did extensive online and referral research to weed out prospects. Money was not an issue because my primary concern was hiring the most competent attorney possible; however, through my research, I found that Mr. Arzili’s rates fall toward the middle of the spectrum. During the “interview” process, I was most impressed by Mr. Arzili’s refusal to make any grandiose claims simply based on the limited information I gave him. Every attorney I spoke to made “promises” on how likely the situation will play out in court. For all you people who are new to the criminal court system, as the defendant, you know NOTHING based on simply a police report and your arrest. In addition, the defendant cannot tell his or her side of the story until AFTER the DA’s side provides ALL evidence and witness testimony. Based on Mr. Arzili’s track record and my gut instinct, I hired him and he stepped me through the entire process, from the pre-lim to pre-trial proceedings, and finally to trial. Mr. Arzili is extremely knowledgeable in criminal law and provided a fantastic performance during the trial (he had great rapport with the jury). As a result, both my criminal charges were dismissed. Mr. Arzili saved my life, and I am forever thankful. I don’t have experience with other defense attorneys, but I assure you, I did my homework and I’m confident I found the best.

Thank you Anthony, You really are Excellent.

If it wasn't for Anthony, I would probably be locked up by now and wouldn't be able to handle it. From the start he was up front and knowledgable with how things worked and I felt very comfortable with him. The outcome was actually better than he said even after all the factors that I presented for h...im and now I won't even have to have anything on my record. He took care of practically everything and made it easier for me. Thanks Anthony.

A Misdemeanor reduce to an Infraction

When I reviewed Mr. Arzil's website, I came across many positive testimonies from his clients stating how happy they chose Anthony as their lawyer. He was able to reduce their criminal charges to nil and in some cases, a complete dismissal. In my case, Mr. Arzili was able to keep my misdemeanor ch...arge off my record and reduce the charge to a simple infraction. I highly recommend Mr. Arzili to others who need a good criminal defense lawyer. His record speaks for itself. He came through for me. I felt his fee for taking on my case was reasonable and considerably lower than other lawyers in his field. I also found that Mr. Arzili is a compassionate man who cares for his clients and I am forever grateful to him.

Knowledgeable, Honest, and Easy to Talk to type of Attorney

I had two cases to deal with. One was a 2nd DUI charge in LA and another was a violation of my probation case in Fullerton. I found Mr. Arzili on this website, AVVO, and after reading the reviews and searching him online I decided to meet with him and I was pleased when we met in person. Very nice, d...own to earth, easy to talk to type of guy. Does not feel like you are talking to a lawyer (who usually are not the kindest people). He also did not sugarcoat or promise me anything and told me the straight truth about my case and the outcome. What I liked most about Mr. Arzili was his professionalism and reliability. If I ever had any questions, a small or big question, and I had a lot of questions cause I like to understand fully what is going on. I would email him and he would get back to me within 1hr-3hrs. Alicia his secretary was also very nice too and got back to me quickly with answers to questions as well. He also worked with me on my my payments and helped me find a bailsbondman, Marco, who was also very nice. And Steve in orange county helped me with my Fullerton probation case, and I got probation for that case no jail time. The LA DUI case went from a month in county jail to four days in county jail. I'm very fortunate it was nothing more severe than that. Mr. Arzili is a great lawyer and i recommend him to anyone. I'm very pleased I choose him. He helped me a lot during this very depressing and stressful time. He made me feel confident that I was being taken care of legally, which I was. Thank you Mr. Arzili.

Attorney you could trust

Mr. Arzili was a referal, if not for that I wouldn't have known what attorney to choose, turns out I made the right choice. Arzili consulted me before I made the decision of having him represent me for my DUI case so I could assure myself I needed a lawyer. I was updated on a timely baises for change...sin my situation and was let known of new information that came up to insure I was taken care of. All questions were answered immediately, and his assistant was very couteous and extremly helpfull at all times. Arzili kept me driving longer, dropped a bogus hit and run charge, helped get me the bare minimum sentence, also helped to sort out a very tricky and confusing DUI case. In all I feel very lucky to have been represented by Arzili, the outcome of me case could have been disastrous if I had gone through it alone, this was my first time being arrestes for a DUI and I had no legal knowledge that pertained to a DUI.
