Nothing Good to Say

Worst criminal /liar/attorney in the Los Angeles area. I do not recommend he is a con man specializing in separating you from your money.

Better Representation by Public Defender

Let me take you back to 2020! I got my dui jan 5th and was recommended by Someone to go with this law office because they helped him out. What a joke Ali Ziai is!!! I know it's been years since my dui but I can't let go on how this office was a complete failure to me. First they keep pushing my c...ourt day back and back until they couldn't anymore. When it came down to my final court day they pressured me into just taking the the plea.(being charge with a second dui) I felt that I was out of luck and pressured into taking the plea ..plus they gave me an outrageous fee if I wanted to take to trial. So at the moment I said I would take the plea over the phone. I continued to overthink the plea and decided that I would go to trial but drop them as my attorney and go with a public defender. I am so great full that I made this decision!!! The public defender in venture county did more than these thieving crook Ali Ziai that I gave $$ too!! My public defender got my second dui charge dropped down to a 1st dui.!! Watch where you spend your money at, even some one that has recommended a place can end up to a failure!

Destroyed Our Lives Poor Representation

He destroyed our life in the most ridiculous and indecent way. Be aware that the fact that he have so many good reviews is because they make you do it while you're in his office on the first visit, after you pay them you are on your own. How I know? Because I was one. My family is destroyed and I wil...l always feel guilty because I was the one with the resolution to hire him. I can said so many things I will eventually do. Right now I know this is David against Golliat and what can we do......just hope to find justice in some other ways, while they do their game of playing with people's life. Ali Ziai is not recommended he is horrible.

Dishonest DUI attorney

Don’t Hire Him for DUI, just Hire Attorney who is telling you the Truth not the thing you like to hear. He won’t do anything in your Favor, he does everything for his Reputation in Courtroom. Dishonest Attorney who is not in your side.

Great Lawyer!

He is the best lawyer. He has an extensive background as a prosecutor and it shows. I was very upset when I was served with a restraining order from my abusive ex-employer. This woman is completely unreasonable and was harassing me for over a year until I snapped and left some nasty voicemails. She t...hen served me with a restraining order. I called a few lawyers but felt comfortable right away with Ali. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient. All my questions were always answered promptly and thoroughly. We gathered all my evidence and were ready to go. However, I was so upset and nervous about seeing my tormentor in court. I was having a hard time sleeping and functioning from all the worry and stress. I expressed this concern with him and he understood and took charge. We had a slam-dunk case, so he talked to the person‘s attorney and she dismissed the case 11 hours before the hearing due to the evidence we had that proved she was the aggressor. Ali saved me big time. I have no idea how I would’ve got through this without him. Highly recommend him as an attorney and you’ll be in amazing hands if you retain him.
