I hired Zachary to handle my case a few months ago. Going to court and being wrongfully accused was stressful. Zachary made the whole process easier. He was very knowledgeable and represented me very well. He is a very skilled attorney and brought evidence in on my behalf that proved my innocence. I... would definitely recommend him to anyone who is facing charges.

I am a 24 year old female and I am a college student pursuing a nursing career. I prided myself for never being involved with the law until last summer. I was busted for speeding in Orange County and stupidly admitted to leaving a beer and barbeque festival. I was ultimately faced with a mandatory... 60 day jail sentence and a DUI. There was no doubt in my mind that I needed an attorney because I did not want to serve this sentence being that I am a college student in school and working. I also knew that there was no way I would opt for a public defender. You may ask yourself and wonder why. A public defender does not have all the time in the world to work with just you. One may also consider the budget deficit and the role of a public defender. Beginning my search for a private attorney was not an easy task because it was all a very unfamiliar process. About a week after the arrest, I retained Zachary McCready as my attorney. Meeting with him, I felt confident in my decision and was ready to begin the overall process. I liked the fact that he worked for LAPD, used to be cop, and understands what it is to be one. He also diligently keeps updated and attends multiple conferences on current and new law, including criminal and civil. How could this not be beneficial for my particular situation, I thought. I was very persistent, assertive with Zach and so was he. Mr. McCready replied to all of my calls and texts rapidly. He also filed several motions for my case to prevent an unfavorable outcome. The DA and first Judge assigned to my case were both very unreasonable. Zachary was able to get a different judge and another more reasonable, DA. Throughout the process, Zachary was very patient, informative, and treated me like a person, not a number. None of my court dates were missed, he continuously walked me through the process the entire time. More importantly, Mr. McCready was able to request that I do my jail sentence at a private jail that worked with my school and work schedule. This was convenient and the best alternative for me at the time. He also got the Judge to grant me permission to complete my jail and alcohol program in Los Angeles County, as I live in Los Angeles and wanted to avoid the commute to Orange County. Currently, Zachary and I still keep in contact because I have to have my misdemeanor expunged for licensing purposes. I have committed myself to Zachary's services for all of the reasons stated above. He knows what he is doing and can guide someone through the confusing, emotionally trying process. For an attorney, you could not ask for a more thorough, sincere, kind, and understanding heart. Thank you, Zach! :)

Mr. McCready is fantastic. Period. He is one of those people who takes your welfare quite seriously, which is rare these days. Always responsive, always on time, and very knowledgeable, he explained what was happening to me every step of the way. He also talked me out of panic mode several times, whi...ch is a testament to his ability to work with you as a person, and not just another name on a page. I can't recommend him highly enough!

Zack did an amazing job for me and was very honest and detailed and kept me up to date throughout my case. Keeping in contact was very convenient and even talked to me via texting. Originally I was facing a Robbery charge and then he got it knocked down to grand theft (from a strikable to a non strik...able charge) and then 2 years later I came back for him to help me again by cutting my probation short and getting my case dismissed. 1 month later, I'm finally off! Zack gave me the feeling that he actually cared for my case and didn't mess around when I would ask direct questions. Very professional and very helpful. Oh yeah and Im from texas too so my sister found Zack through Avvo because of ratings and he surpassed expectations. I have had horrible to average lawyers before, that didn't really care and didn't keep me in the loop but Zack was different. I would definitely recommend Zack again.
