A life saver!

Cole was there for me during one of the most demeaning and traumatic times in my life. He handled the situation professionally and helped me work through it. I can't thank Cole and his team enough for all the support they have given me and still continue to give. With Cole and team, they treat you... with respect and they take each case personally. The great thing about their team is that they are dedicated to helping you through the ENTIRE experience and not simply out to exploit your situation for their benefit as many lawyers who pray on people facing DUI charges often do.. In my case, the time finally came for the charges to be expunged and Cole was there for me again. As fate would have it, instead of expunging the charges from my record, a clerical error caused by a typo (literally the difference of a single period) resulted in a felony firearm related charge being put on my DMV record! Of course I was beside myself and anxious to get the error corrected. Cole's team (Mary & Chris) consoled me and went to the court to negotiate with the commissioner 4 times over several weeks to correct the situation! Every time, they said it was fixed but when I contacted the DMV, they said it was still there. I called their office often bugging them about the situation but they were always courtious. Finally they were actually able to get one of the senior counsel representatives from the DMV to call and apologize for the situation. Just yesterday the DMV confirmed that it has been completely removed from the record. YAY!! :D If you are in a situation where you need legal counsel in a DUI case, don't hesitate to retain Cole and team! You will not regret it.

Simply the Best

When I was arrested on a DUI charge, I was in a panic. This was my first DUI, but it was going to do severe damage to my career. I met with Cole to discuss the case. He reviewed the details and assured me he could help. Sure enough, with his experience and expertise in DUI cases he was able to negoti...ate my charge down to a reckless driving. I owe my career and future earning potential to this man. He saved me, and I owe him a huge debt of gratitude. If you need an attorney, I highly recommend you talk to Cole Casey first. Cole will work things out in the most favorable way possible for you.

SAVED MY LIFE & CAREER

I was arrested in Oct. of 2011 for my 3rd DUI in 10 years in CA and for those of you familiar with the penalty it carries a minimum of 120 days in jail. I interviewed 4 attorneys that specialize in DUIs. The first told me to rush a guilty plea through and do the time asap and get it over with and th...at there was no point in fighting it, I would lose. The second and third attorneys both gave me an elaborate story on how they would use expert toxicologists to prove what I ate and my current stress level because of work caused my BAC to rise. When i met with Cole he said I had to do go above and beyond to not go to jail so he suggested I voluntarily be put on SCRAM (alcohol monitor), enroll in and intensive out patient drug and alcohol rehab program and that i start seeing a one on one drug and alcohol therapist. I did it all and ended up wearing the SCRAM bracelet for 9 months but now just signed a change of plea to do 5 months of Electronic Monitoring (house arrest) which allows me to go to and from work and sleep in my bed and night. Thank God for Cole Casey, Chris Sohovich, and Vivian Ruelas!

Caring, Professional Lawyer at the highest level

A little over a year ago, I was involved in a DUI accident that had me thinking there was no way to move forward from. While incarcerated with little to no hope in my life, I met Matt from Cole's office. Matt immediatly gave me the feeling that I was in great hands and that Cole and team would do eve...rything in their power to work at getting the best possible result out of my case. When I was released and met Cole, Vivian and Matt, I was overwhelmed with the care that Cole and staff expressed while working in my case. My family and I always felt like we were in the best hands that we could have hired in San Diego. While working with Cole in my case, he and his staff always kept me informed while working through things as the case went on. I feel that throughout the case, Cole did the best possible job one could do, and I have never once had any regret of hiring Cole Casey. Cole always gave me the most information that he could give me to make the best possible decision for myself and my family. Cole gave me great advice throughout my case while always leaving the final decision up to me. If you get into a situation where you are looking for a lawyer like Cole, I wouldn't think twice about hiring Cole Casey. If you can be honost, listen to his suggestions, and will do anything to move forward from the situation that you are in, there is no better lawyer to hire than Cole Casey and staff. My family and I are forever grateful to Cole and his staff and could not even come close to repay them. Cole, Matt and Vivian did a great job in working in my case and always gave me the impression that they sincerely cared about me and my future. Do not hesitate to hire Cole if you need a DUI lawyer.

The most proficient Dui Attorney in San Diego

Mr. Casey and his team are not only professional, diligent and polite but provide the fastest client focused results possible. Their tenacity and expertise is unsurpassed by anyone. This was my first DUI and unfortunately prior to working with Mr. Casey, I retained a not only incompetent attorney b...ut malicious. “She” (not to mention names) kept approximately $2000 providing absolutely nothing for my case. I was under a great amount of stress with the addition of threating emails and calls from this attorney. From my first interaction with Mr. Casey and his staff, all that anxiety was put to rest. They handled all communication with my previous attorney as well as my case allowing me to focus on my life and career. I have worked with many lawyers in the past and Cole Casey runs an amazing practice. There is not enough words to describe what a great experience I had working with him.
