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!

domestic violence wrap

I was stressed out for my kids mom , she was looking at some hard time for a domestic violence charge that was being pushed to a felony by the d.a . I picked mr arzili"s office and was blown away how responsive and caring he and his staff was. The smartest thing i did was to chose mr.arzili because ...i was only wishing to drop the felony charges , instead mr arzili through his experience and knowledge of the courts had all the charges dismissed. I cant tell u how impressed and so grateful i am to mr arzili and alicia for making this happen.

Second DUI

i highly recommend Mr. Arzili and Ms. Walters when looking for legal representation! They helped me get a possible second DUI rejected. They also worked with me in terms of a payment plan, which really helped. They have a very non-judgmental, laid-back atmosphere in their office. Mr. Arzili and M...s. Walters are very knowledgeable and set out to get the best possible results for my case. Again i highly recommend them if you find yourself in legal trouble.

Great Attorney---

My experience with my DV case was like a bad nightmare and thanks to Mr. Arzili and his staff, the made me feel not ashamed of what had occurred and walk me through the process. At the end of it all, I was very pleased with Mr. Arzili's knowledge, experience and confidence in the courtroom and negoti...ating the best offer for me. I would definitely recommend his services to anyone who has any criminal matters.

can't thank them enough

I got arrested for dui while on vacation in California. This was the first time I have gotten in trouble for anything, and I couldn't have been more scared/confused/worried about what the outcome would be. I felt like I was totally doomed and expected to be penalized severely for the dui. I hired Mr.... Arzili after talking to his paralegal Ms. Walters, who was able to calm me down and explain the procedures Mr. Arzili would take to handle my case. To make a long story short, Mr. Arzili got my charge of DUI reduced to reckless driving, and I couldn't be happier. With his hard work, as well as the work of his paralegal Ms. Walters, a TON of stress was taken off my shoulders. I can't thank them enough for their work on my behalf. I never expected to be able to receive a lesser charge due to the circumstances of my case. If you are searching for a DUI lawyer..choose him!!
