Top notch criminal attorney

To put it simply, Arvand Naderi is THE go to criminal defense lawyer in the San Fernando Valley. He will fight for you justly and swiftly and he literally knows every judge and prosecutor in the San Fernando court as he goes there every day. He works hard, listens well, and won't let you down. If... you need to be represented, do not hesitate to call Mr. Naderi! Not only is he an ace laywer, he's a cheerful, witty person that cares. You're in good hands with Arvand.

Marijuana charge

Counselor Naderi is confident in his moves, his mannerism brings comfort to those he encounter. I was blessed to have been represented by him. I was facing a drug case and prison was likely, Counsel advised me of lesser options due to the fact that i was a first time offender. My case was negotiate...d via a plea and community service and probation was of acceptance. I'm struggling to find fault in Arvand's representation of me, he truly is knowledgeable and experience in his practice. Thanks again Arvand.

Criminal Defense - Not Guilty at Trail !

Arvand Naderi is the best criminal defense attorney in Los Angles. I was recently charged with serious Domestic Violence battery and criminal threats thanks to the LAPD! If a woman calls the cops the guy is going to jail! I had initially hired a lawyer based on the recommendation of my bail bonds...men (a bad idea! it’s a racket of crooks!). My first lawyer did NOTHING for close to 3 months. I thought all was going fine as was constantly assured by my first lawyer. That DA is his friend and he will get a good deal. I decided to go show up to court on one of my dates on a Friday and realized I was in big trouble. LA courts are under strict orders to resolve all criminal cases in 90 days. DA would not budge, my first lawyer is a late and couldn’t do crap.Then my case gets called and I hear 4 of 10 and my date is set for next Friday. I realized I needed to fire my current lawyer and hire NEW lawyer ASAP! I researched Arvand Naderi online (yes online!) and was very impressed with his credentials. I connected with Arvand over the phone, emailed him my reports and set up an appointment to meet Thursday as was out of town (1 day before my next court date!). Once I met Arvand in his nice office in Encino I was convinced I had the right guy this time and decided am going to trial! Arvand was gracious enough to put it in writing that if he got a deal from DA that I liked, he would refund the balance. How many lawyers will ever offer that, let alone put it writing on the contract! Everything changed from the day Arvand and I showed up in Court on Friday! Of course this time my first lawyer is EARLY and waiting for me and was literarily begging to keep him. We go in front of judge to ask for a sub of my lawyer (only time I felt good replying yes to judge about firing my first lawyer!) .. Then I realized 4 of 10 means 6 more days to start trial! Arvand realized the seriousness of my charges, refusal of DA to offer me a win-win deal; we decided to go to trial. Next date is set for Monday! I put my life on hold and decide to fight this head on. Arvand gave up his weekend and we began preparing immediately. That Friday I slept good knowing that I finally had someone who will fight for me. Rest as they say is history! We went to trial was found not guilty case dismissed and am a FREE man!!! Arvand was masterful in selecting the jury, opening statements, cross examining witness, including the LAPD cops. He always kept me informed of the case, every day after court he would spend countless hours preparing, including preparing me if needed to testify. He tore the prosecution witness testimony part including the cop who arrested me. In fact Arvand did such a wonderful job that I did not even have to take the stand! The whole process from when I met Arvand to when I was a free man was less than 2 weeks. Thus, I highly recommend Arvand as your criminal defense attorney. Not only he saved my life from ruin, but has made a friend and if ever in trouble (I hope never!) Arvand will be the first person I call! What Arvand achieved in a short time, imagine how he will do when they have the full 90 days to defend you. Good Luck!

Aggressive Criminal Defense Lawyer

Arvand is a very excellent lawyer. As soon as I hired him, he kept me very informed of my situation. He answered all my questions as soon i needed and answer. At court he was really good and I felt very confident that he was handling my case. I knew he had knowdledge of my case.overall I would recomm...end him to anyone that needs a very good lawyer.

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.
