I don't leave reviews often but this one is warranted!

When I was at my lowest after a LTR gone bad, I found myself in a situation I had never experienced. My ex gf of 8 years and I had moved into a new apartment lease and shortly after things went south. I found myself in a terrible state with no support as she quickly decided to use my personal circums...tances against me in the form of a temporary restraining order. Her intentions was to use the order to remove herself from the new apartment lease break fee and tarnish my character thereof. After meeting Rory I knew he could honestly help! He guided me through the process and protected me from further issues. He took the lead with interactions between both parties. His handling of my case resulted in full dismissal! I really appreciate his style and confidence. He is a honorable and dependable Lawyer! Im so thankful for his genuine care and courtroom savvy technique. Couldn't have gotten better results from my decision to hire him and I wouldn't hesitate to call him again in the future if need be!

Highly recommended attorney

I had the privilege of working with Roderick Daly for my family’s member criminal case, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Mr. Daly's expertise, professionalism, and dedication to his clients truly set him apart. From our initial consultation to the resolution of my case, he provided clear... guidance and support every step of the way. Mr. Daly's knowledge of criminal law is exceptional, and his strategic approach to the defense was instrumental in achieving a favorable outcome. He is a skilled negotiator and advocate who fought tirelessly on our behlf in and out of the courtroom. What truly impressed me about Mr. Daly was his unwavering commitment to ensuring that we understood our rights and options throughout the legal process. He took the time to listen to our concerns, address any questions I had, and always kept us informed of developments in the case. Furthermore, Mr. Daly's compassionate demeanor and genuine concern for his clients' well-being made a stressful situation much more manageable. He treated us with respect, empathy, and compassion, which I deeply appreciated during this challenging times in our lives. Overall, Roderick Daly is an exceptional criminal attorney who goes above and beyond for his clients. If you're in need of legal representation, I wholeheartedly recommend reaching out to Mr. Daly. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication make him a standout choice for anyone facing criminal charges.

Thank you for your help.

I hired Roderick (AKA Rory) for a case in which I had been criminally charged with a felony. During the consultation, he sympathized with my situation and sought to understand the details of my case. He provided me with realistic expectations on possible outcomes and provided me a comprehensive pla...n of action. Initially, Rory was able to communicate with the District Attorney’s office to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor provided the facts and evidence of the case. Rory represented me in court and worked with me to successfully complete a military diversion program (pursuant to CA Penal Code 1001.80). Initially charged for a felony, Rory helped me get my case dismissed and helped me avert a criminal restraining order. Currently, I am working with Rory to remove any occurrence of arrest from my record with Department of Justice. The charges against me and police report were heavily biased against me; Rory will fight for fair justice, and it is up to you to do your homework. I highly recommend this attorney. Thank you for your help.
