Anna Reese Yum

After having a run in with the law and having several consultations with attorneys’ in the area, I came across Anna’s information. I reached out to her and she immediately scheduled a consultation. From the moment we sat down you can be assured she means business. We went detail by detail through my ...situation and she was attentive and focused. She explained the process, events and timeline of criminal proceedings and zeroed in on the potential holes in the situation that could help mount a defense. I hired her on the spot, and it’s a good thing I did. I was facing a very serious situation and the possible loss of a long and successful career that would have been life altering and devastating for my future. Once retained, she gave me a list of things to gather and begin doing or collecting. I immediately went into action, and so did Anna. She sprang into action immediately after our discussion and never stopped aggressively working my situation while keeping me informed of all the things going on and what she was doing to secure my innocence. She is a bulldog! Her resume speaks for itself, having been a former prosecutor she knows exactly how the system works. This is something that a significant amount of attorney’s simply do not have under their belt and can be crucial to a successful outcome. Combined with her extensive criminal defense experience this makes for an extremely strong and competent lawyer, and she is definitely at the top of that list. She always was extremely prompt in her communications and stood ready to answer any questions or concerns I had about the situation at a moment’s notice. Her advice throughout the process was critical, if she tells you to stand on one leg and hop in circles, do it. Anna is a highly intelligent and extremely articulate professional in the courtroom. She gets down to business and shows complete command of the courtroom. If you need a highly skilled, no-nonsense, and professional attorney Anna is the unequivocal best you could have in your corner. I got the best possible outcome you could have through her hard work and dedication, and she literally saved my life.

We hired Anna to represent our son against a charge of misdemeanor domestic violence because she was incredibly quick to respond to our need, listened attentively, was very knowledgeable about the law, thorough in her investigation and reassuring throughout the process. Anna knows the prosecutorial ...system well, and works with a smart team who helps her gather information for a sound defense. She maintained a high degree of respect for our son which was critical because he had been the victim of domestic violence by his accuser. The process was difficult and his choices were limited, but Anna helped him make a decision that allowed him to move on with his life. Most of all, we appreciate Anna's kind demeanor which was a comfort throughout this frightening experience. Anyone facing similar charges would be well advised to consider Anna for their defense.

We hired Anna to represent my son in a felony arrest in Feb 2016. We are from out of state and she helped guide us through all of the challenges. There are several things that stood out to me about Anna during the process...First of all, is her knowledge of the legal system. Her recommendations and ...guidance were spot on in getting a fair and favorable outcome. I truly believe without her expertise we would not have had a good conclusion. Secondly, is her professionalism. She is truly one of the best in her field and I'm very happy she was "on our side". Lastly, is compassion. Anna truly cares about her clients. She spent many hours checking on us, explaining what to expect, next steps and pointing us in the right directions. It made all the difference in helping us get through one of the most challenging times of our lives. Thanks Anna - we could never thank you enough!!!

My experience with Anna Yum has been exceptional during a difficult time. I found myself in an unthinkable situation.

She also sympathizes with your case and talks to you at every step to ease any concerns. Literally, the best possible outcome happened for my case and she was there every step of the way.

Phenomenal and proactive professional with a dynamic command of California Law. Ms. Yum was my attorney during a very difficult period of my life that spanned more than 8 months. My entire life was on the line; 17 years of honorable service to this country could have been washed away due to false all...egations…. Ms. Yum became entrenched from day one and my fight immediately became “her” fight. Extremely courteous and affable; I never felt judged or discomfited in her presence. Ms. Yum ensured that I thoroughly understood the law and how it related to my particular situation. All emails, phone calls and every other “off the wall” requests that could be expected from an individual with his freedom on the line were answered with the utmost expediency and efficiency. I was frequently updated with status changes as it pertained to my case. Throughout the trial, Ms. Yum exhibited mastery of the intricacies of the law. She meticulously dismantled the prosecution theory and successfully exposed the ill intent of prosecution witnesses. Her closing argument was aggressive, relevant, poignant and undoubtedly truthful; an exemplary work of art. In the end, I was exonerated of all charges. Ms. Yum is simply the best!! I emphatically recommend her to anyone in need of legal representation. No matter what your current situation…..You will not regret utilizing the services of Ms. Anna Yum.
