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! :)

Zack represented me when I was arrested for .08 at a checkpoint. He was able to get the charges reduced to an exhibition of speed in court and although the DMV suspended my license anyway, he continued to petition them for credit and lesser penalties. Overall, I believe he actually cared about the ...outcome of my case and I've heard that's not as common as it should be among attorneys.

For anyone looking for a DUI lawyer, I highly recommend Mr. Zachary Mccready. This was my first DUI and my first time ever being in trouble with the law. I was scared and had no idea what my options were. He guided me through the entire process and fought tooth and nail to get the best possible ou...tcome. Not only did he manage to get my DUI charge dropped down to a Wet Reckless, but he was also able to get my fine reduced by 50% and shave a full year off of my informal probation. Zack is an exceptional lawyer that acts with professionalism while being very personable. I never once felt that this was some shady lawyer that was more interested in making money than in my own well being. He always responded promptly to any of my texts or phone calls whenever I had a question. My biggest fear was dumping a lot of money for a bogus lawyer who was only going to sit back and collect. That was not the case here. The cost was an extremely reasonable flat rate with no b.s. hidden fees. Zack Mccready is the real deal. You will know this first time you meet him.
