Feelin' Good

I came into this office on a referral from a friend with a lot of fear and shame for the fact that I even needed a Criminal Attorney in the first place. David Kestenbaum and his assistant Lorena immediately took all those feeling away. Because of their calm compassionate demeanor and their knowledg...e of what I could be facing if charges were filed, I was able to take a breath and realize things aren't as bad as what I had built up in my head. A clear plan of action was laid out and set into motion. Fast forward a month later, I am lucky enough to say I have no charges being filed against me thanks to the Kestenbaum Law Group. They were diligent in their representation of me and I am forever grateful. On a side note, My incident happened in Ventura and I live in North Hollywood. I can't tell you how amazing it was to have someone close to home that knows the Ventura System and made appearances on my behalf. This referral was a blessing to me and I hope my review/referral will help someone else.

Fought Hard For Me and Saved My Job

I was referred to David Kestenbaum by a friend after I was arrested for DUI. I met with David and from the very beginning he was honest and upfront about the situation and what the likely consequences were. Despite having a 0.16 BAC, David fought relentlessly for me and ultimately was able to get the... charges reduced to a Wet Reckless, keeping my license and keeping my job at the same time. I would definitely recommend!

Amazing guy and amazing Attorney

If anyone needs a criminal lawyer, David is your guy. He made sure my case didn't go to court. He was able to have the DA not file any charges which could have ruined my career. He was so lovely and reassuring and told me what to expect. I can not thank him. I can now live my life freely without wor...rying. Thank you David!!!

Trust me!

Well,...... First of all, 5 starts are not enough to express my experience with David.It is more like 200 Starts.... I was charged for "Hit and Run" and my 2nd DUI........ 2 years ago. I hired David and he made my problems go away, He is honest, hard working, and upfront about everything. I just h...ad my court date last week that I was told that we were going to Trial, I was there on the Trial date. When he showed up, he had already made all of my problems go away.I was in shock.... No trial, and I just had to pay $750 fee to the court and walked out of court without doing any jail time.He is the one You need to hire. If you do not believe me, send me PM. If you are in Trouble, in 805 area code or near area, call David Kestenbaum.

Amazing attorney! Honest and helpful

David was the third lawyer I consulted after my DUI arrest and once I spoke with him in person I knew immediately I wanted him to take on my case. He was able to get my DUI reduced to a wet reckless and for that I am forever grateful! He really helped save my nursing career because of it. Thank you s...o much once again David for all of your help, you are truly amazing! I will definitely be recommending him to my family and friends and to anyone else who is in need of a great, helpful, and trustworthy attorney.
