I was fortunate to find Mr Cole Casey. After consulting from one attorney to the next I quickly became overwhelmed. Lawyer after lawyer all I heard were sales pitches. Nothing but a bunch of businessmen and women making a sale. I had the book thrown at me from other lawyers with their jargon and scar...e tactics that made everything more hectic and confusing than it already was. I was not looking to be sold to. It felt insulting. This seemed to be the nature of the business but never for Mr Cole Casey. He was the exact opposite. He is an honest man of initiative. This is an important quality to look for in a lawyer as you never want to miss a deadline at some point in the process because they simply forgot or did not show up to your hearing. It was something as simple as him being the only lawyer to be able to schedule an in person consultation and asses my situation more closely and personally compared to the other lawyers. With honesty he stated that I did not need his services for my situation was not severe and only a misdemeanor dui. There was a lot of truth in that; however, I believed that the money is well spent towards an individual I trusted and I never regretted my reasoning. The day I retained Mr Cole Casey some of the lawyers I consulted previously were curious who I hired. As I mentioned his name, they quickly expressed exhaustion out of options and defeat. One even commented "Wow. Cole Casey is the best in the DUI business. You have a great attorney in your hands. Good luck to your case Adrian." So there you have it, even some of his colleagues can confirm his confidence. More so his confidence held true the entire time. Not once did I second guess him. Mr Cole Casey walked me through all the steps and constantly updated me on his defense. If he requires supporting documentation to formulate a compelling argument then by no means provide them. Letters of recommendations, transcripts, forms, you name it. He does not play games and neither should you. He provides a his number so you may contact him or use his online web portal if you have other dire questions. I have gained great respect for him and Lauren Angelos and I can see why they are the best in the business. I cannot imagine hiring anyone else but him. One defining moment was when he expressed that I must excel to become the best I can be especially in these hard times and allow him to handle the rest... and I did exactly just that. Both work and school fell into place with the court dates and it was oddly painless. I excelled. I built character. I felt like an autonomous individual part of society once again and this was while my case was still pending. Fast forward to several several months Mr Cole Casey was able to obtain a wet & reckless plea bargain which was the favorable outcome I had hoped for. I do not believe in miracles or luck but I do believe in hard work and Mr Cole Casey is proof of that. Make no mistake to call Mr Cole Casey if you or someone you know are in need of his services. He is my personal referral if any family or friend fall within the same situation as I have.

My son received a DUI 5 days ago (1st offense) and after numerous calls to other SD attorneys, we were very skeptical about the information that the lawyers were telling us and the information we were reading online about DUI cases. I can not tell you how BLESSED we were to find Mr. Casey's name on ...AVVO. Although you will see many lawyers that are also listed with over 100 reviews and 5 stars, but Mr. Casey stood out above the others because of the detail in the Reviews that we read. I wasn't sure what to expect since we had already been given such conflicting information from the other attorneys that we contacted. We had been told over and over that the only way to handle the DUI is to higher a lawyer, someone who knows the system and will do all of these things for you (fees ranged from $4000. to $10,000) and will make false promises to get your money. Mr. Casey personally took my call and was the 1st lawyer to give me the "Real Truth" about what will happen. He did not try to get money out of me to pay him to do something that we didn't need to do. Instead, he took the time to explain the process step by step and gave me very specific information regarding when to take care of these things. I did not need to hire him or any other attorney because the circumstances surrounding the DUI charge were going to be the same whether I hired an attorney or went with the FREE Public Defender. He said "why pay him or any other lawyer if I don't need to." I am sure there may be some 1st time offenders that have a situation that might warrant a lawyer, but don't fall into the traps that will be waiting for you. Call Mr. Casey and you can rest assured that he will be Honest with you. In my eyes, this man represents what every Lawyer should be. The simple fact that Mr. Casey took my call, took the time to explain what needed to be done, gave me the timeline to do those things and DID NOT try to take my money unnecessarily was the 1st sense of relief that I have had for the past week. I almost wish there was a need to utilize Mr. Casey because I believe he truly is the man that will fight for your life if needed and is the person that I would want representing me. He is absolutely 100% genuine and should be used as a model for other lawyers. Call Mr. Casey and you will see for yourself that this is truly a lawyer that is doing what should be done and will TELL YOU THE TRUTH!!!!

After speaking with 3 or 4 lawyers on behalf of my son, who was arrested for his first DUI at age 22, I was sure that my son was going to jail, and was going to suffer for the rest of his life. That's what I had been told would happen, unless of course I hired one of them. I was referred to Cole Cas...ey by my neighbor, a police officer, who's son also had a DUI and had Mr. Casey as his lawyer, and he spoke very highly of Mr. Casey. Apparently the San Diego Police department considers him their go-to guy when their family members get in trouble, and that was very comforting. I called Mr. Casey's office, was patched right through to him and he spent almost an hour calming me down, assuring me that my son was going to be fine, would not go to jail and most importantly, that I did not his services or the services of any lawyer at all. After having every other lawyer I spoke with trying to scare me into giving them my credit card number over the phone, and giving me some very unprofessional sales pitches. Mr. Casey was truly a breath of fresh, honest air. He is the exact opposite of what you would expect a lawyer to be and that was so wonderful to see. He could tell how scared I was, and just kept re-assuring me. He explained the entire DMV process to me, told me how to get the proper documents for my son to get a provisional license and told me not not to waste my time with the DMV. He gave me his cell phone number, told me to go with my son to court and to use the services of the Public Defender, because hiring him would be a waste of money. He told me to call him if we got into a bind, or had questions. After an hour of talking, I insisted on paying him for his time because he was a thousand times more helpful than anyone I had spoken to, and he would have none of it. This is a truly honest and caring man, but you can tell by talking to him that he is also 100% an authentically tough, and impressive lawyer. It is obvious why he has so many awards and professional commendations. He made me laugh, I stopped crying, and I will refer anyone I know that gets in trouble to him. I know he will give them straightforward advice and not try to scam them into hiring him. My son went to court, took his lumps, the punishment was exactly what Mr. Casey said it would be, and I did not waste thousands of dollars on a lawyer. I emailed him after my son's case was a over, thanked him and again offered to pay him; he simply would not allow it. Thank you Mr. Casey, your profession should be proud of you and the way you conduct yourself. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Using Cole Casey is the best decision you can make if you receive a DUI. I’m highly educated, successful and yet I made a very bad decision to get behind the wheel of my car following a heated argument with a loved one who was being abusive and left after our argument. Finding myself alone and in ...jail, my car totaled, my loved one wasn’t there to help me, my best friend was there. In a state of panic, we quickly rented a car and contacted a referral from the bail bond company. The attorney assigned to me seemed competent at the beginning as he tried to understand my case. That attorney represented me at the DMV, misrepresented the facts of the case and didn’t provide any updates on next steps. I took the required classes and didn’t drive as I worked my way through the DMV process. About 10 days prior to the anniversary of the incident, I received a mailing indicating an upcoming court date as a felony charge. We went to court, and it was clear the attorney was not prepared and he did not represent me very well. I left the court room with an order to wear an ankle bracelet until the next hearing date in the middle of the summer. After a couple weeks of hiding the ankle bracelet at work (in meetings), and from my children, I contacted another attorney to ask for a referral – she said Cole Casey was the best. Upon contacting Cole’s office, they collected some basic information from me, answered my questions, and set up time for me to meet with Cole. We met at the office and Cole asked for details, reviewed my paperwork, and luckily, Cole was willing to take on my case. Within days and while I was on a beach vacation with my children in Orange County, Cole made arrangements for he and I to meet with a judge to make a case for the ankle bracelet to be removed immediately. Cole won it for me. Following the meeting with the judge, I drove to San Diego, had the bracelet removed, and returned to Orange County to enjoy the remainder of my vacation with my children. The next challenge would be the felony and seeing if we could have the charge reduced to a misdemeanor. A few weeks later, Cole represented me and was able to have the charge reduced. Throughout the entire process, Cole was available, honest, concerned, and dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome. Cole and his team are absolutely amazing. If I had started with Cole it’s likely he would have been able to resolve my case much quicker than the 14 very scary, uncomfortable, unpleasant months I endured. Cole Casey is the best, and I am thankful and appreciative of his expertise, relationships, honesty, and sense of urgency.

Last year my world was turned upside down. I'd never been in trouble before, not even a parking ticket. Professionally employed - white collar, honorable military service and by all account a good family man, friend and law abiding citizen. I hired Mr. Casey and his firm to represent me for a seri...ous felony charge and it was the right move. Never experiencing something like this before I had all sorts of thoughts running through my head. From the beginning I felt I was innocent, but at the least my only stipulation was not serving time. From the start Mr. Casey advised me there are no guarantees, but felt there was a good chance we could resolve this with no time served. I found Mr. Casey trustworthy, flexible, but firm and most of all supportive. He kept me abreast of the situation along the way, looked at all possibilities and communicated them effectively with both positive and negative repercussions and he took the time to meet with me on a regular basis to help me pause and reset when I would get anxious. Mr. Casey was very knowledgeable about my case and briefed me what he felt the prosecutors were after, would accept and won't accept. Besides the prosecution, Mr. Casey was very accustomed with the courts and judges we appeared before and at every turn what he surmised is pretty much what transpired. Mr. Casey guided me and directed me to actions I could take to support and strengthen my position regarding services I could attend. Mr. Casey fought my case for almost a year and by the end he got me exactly what I asked for. I ended up pleading out my case to lesser charges and no time served. I highly recommend G. Cole Casey Esq. and his team for their expertise, trustworthiness, support, understanding and knowledge of law, the prosecution, courts and judges in San Diego County.
