Good Lawyers know the law, Great lawyers know the judge

This is not your average lawyer. I was involved in a lot of illegal stuff since I was a teenager so I have had a few lawyers in my corner so trust me when I tell you they are legit. When I was referred to Arvand by a mutual close friend I was like ok let me give this guy a try. Never heard anything a...bout him didn't do any research I went with it because my friend referred me. The first phone call was to a paralegal who i gave my case information to. I was 23 with three felonies, one a violent crime, and i was just pulled over with a handgun loaded with hollow point bullets and a ounce of weed. He quoted me a price and i said ill think about it. I knew my case was not going to be cheap. After about 30 minutes i received a phone call from the paralegal and he told me he spoke to Arvand and he said look were going to work something out can you meet me with x amount of dollars for a down payment. First i was astonished because no lawyer had ever did that and during those thirty minutes prior i did my research and immediately I was like he didn't have to that. I meet with Arvand and from the beginning it felt like i knew him for years. He was cool, never said your f'd or made me feel like a bad guy even though i knew deep down i was f'd and i was a bad guy. He went over the case and said well take it from here. There first offer was 16 months state pen and that's not with the gun charge that was just because i was around the weapon. If i would have said it was mine you do the numbers with my record. To cut a long story short after about a year fighting the case, and if you have been in the system that is not long, he walked in and said how does 90 days sound. I was like i could f'in sleep for 90 days hell yeah. But what separates Arvand was his attitude and him really being their as a friend. That was over 4 years ago and me and Arvand are still friends and we still talk. We see each other when we can but were both busy men, The one thing that I was like man this guy is different is after I was released I went to visit him and he told me your a good smart kid and i don't want you as a client again get your stuff together. Now here I am got a good job, drive a nice car, and Im headed to Cal State Northridge as a Computer Science Major. I love Arvand like a brother and would not change anything that happened cuz i lost some money and a few months but i gained a lifetime brother.

Arvand our savior

When my husband was arrested, Arvand had never dealt with any cases like his before and had to do lots of research to help prove his innocence It took many long hours and lots of time in court but Arvand was able to handle the case without going to trial. I can honestly say that Arvand is worth hi...s weight in gold and I highly recommend him to anyone that I hear is having trouble and needs a great attorney. Thank you Arvand for all your hard work, our family would not be the same without you.

Case dismissed

Had a spousal battery case. Hired Arvand Naderi. Nice guy and very easy to talk too which put me at ease as this was my first time ever dealing with something of this nature. Didn't have his full quote upfront but he worked with me. Got my case dismissed so I couldn't ask for more.

Straight Shooter

Let's face it, we've all driven home a little buzzed and we know we weren't supposed to. Most of us have gotten away with it more than once. If you're like me and you're reading this review, your luck ran out. I am normally great about not drinking and driving. In fact, the night I got arrested, ...I hardly drank, but it was late, I was sick and tired heading home from a wedding. The CHP pulled me over for speeding and swerving, they suspected that I had been drinking as well because they saw flowers in my car. After all the field sobriety tests (which for future reference, you can refuse to do and you should – as I now know thanks to my lawyer) the CHP officer arrested me for driving under the influence of alcohol. I never took a breathalyzer and instead opted for a blood test and the results came out to a .04. I still had the embarrassment of spending the night in jail and had one of the worst experiences of my life. Arvand Naderi was able to retest the blood and it came back .02. Arvand took the necessary steps and approach that worked for me. Arvand knew that this was my first offense and helped me keep me calm and understand all the legal jargon. Arvand found discrepancies in my case which allowed the DA to downgrade my DUI conviction to a Wet Reckless and then down to a DRY and Reckless. This not only saves you money on fines, but I had no classes I needed to attend or community service time I had to complete. Arvand is an assertive, competent, and a confident lawyer. I did my research and on the first meeting I knew he would work really hard for me, and he did. He answered all my questions and was a straight shooter, did not sugar coat things, but told me how it was. He also explained everything in great detail to make sure I knew what I was getting into, what my options were, and relieved stress. If you were arrested for a DUI, don't go in on it alone. Hire Arvand Naderi... he'll take care of you and hopefully he can give you a result as good if not better than mine. I'm extremely happy and glad I hired him
