Amazing Criminal Defense Lawyer

In the state of CA, domestic violence and child abuse charges are taken very seriously, thus having the charges dropped is almost unheard of. We hired Alicia Freeze to get these charges dropped, with the understanding that it is typical that the charges might only be reduced from a felony to a misde...meanor with a lighter sentence. I was losing hope the more I read online about similar cases but Alicia guided and advised us throughout this whole ordeal. A day before the hearing, we got a call/text from Alicia stating that all charges had been dropped and that the case was dismissed! Alicia truly dedicates herself to her cases and her clients and delivers nothing short of miracles and amazing outcomes. We are so grateful for her honesty and hard work and if you are ever in an unfortunately similar situation, I would highly recommend Alicia Freeze.

"Alicia took testimony and argued a motion for me as local counsel because I am based in Northern California. She did an outstanding job, putting in a huge amount of effort, taking on incredible opposition from the DA, and thanks to her, we won. My client was thrilled to work with her. I highly recommend Alicia, and look forward to working with her again."

"Alicia is an excellent lawyer. What sets her apart from other attorneys is how much she cares about her clients and the work she does for them. She dedicates herself to her clients, and works most weekends, visiting clients in jail and working extra to make sure they get the very best defense. Alicia is knowledgeable about the court system in San Diego and has developed positive relationships with the prosecutors and judges. Having worked with Alicia for the last four year I can attest to her tenacity and dedication first hand and highly recommend her."
