Best of the best

Cole Casey is simply the best DUI attorney you could ever imagine! Without mentioning names, another DUI attorney heard of my unique case through a mutual doctor we both had. That DUI attorney said, "If you really need the best there is, given your'e in a sensitive job position, then without a do...ubt, Cole Casey is who even I and other attorneys would turn to ourselves if needed." That should tell you all you need to know. I had a previous attorney that was not performing in my best interest. I made the decision to switch attorneys and to go with Cole. That was the best decision I ever made. Also, it must be said that Cole is incredibly responsive and accessible by phone. He has an amazing presence in the courtroom, is widely respected for his knowledge of the subject matter across the entire legal community, and most importantly he delivers results. I cannot say enough to thank Mr. Cole Casey for his representation of me and I will work hard going forward to make sure others needing his professional services hear of my positive experience.

Having a highly respected attorney is essential.

As a result of a moment of extremely poor judgment during a difficult time, I made the worst mistake of my life. I was arrested for a felony DUI with bodily injury and was facing severe consequences to include incarceration. I had never had any driving violations, encounters with police, or legal iss...ues of any kind in the past. I was feeling desperate, terrified, alone, and hopeless. At a moment in my life when I was overwhelmed with guilt and shame, Cole Casey treated me with dignity and offered the support and guidance I needed to regain my sense of self-worth. From my first meeting with Cole Casey, I walked away feeling confident I had hired the right defense team and was in good hands. Cole was honest and realistic, thoroughly explained the legal process, and set clear expectations from the beginning. He also explained the increased sense of confusion and delays related to COVID's impact on standard legal procedures. He and his team never over-simplified the case, made false promises, or steered me in the wrong direction. They were readily available to answer my phone calls or meet with me and offer me support and reassurance when I needed it. Cole provided solid legal counsel throughout the entire process leading to and after my final court hearing. Throughout the entire 16-month process, I felt well informed and represented. In addition to the professional handling of my case, I came to see that Cole Casey is highly respected within the San Diego County legal community, a benefit that I had not prior considered but for which I am so grateful. He and his team effectively highlighted my strengths, prior personal accomplishments, and contributions so that they would be considered at the time of sentencing. Having a lawyer that is well respected by his peers, judges, and courthouse staff standing by my side was essential in asking for careful consideration of my case. In the end, Cole and his team helped me avoid time in jail and house arrest, which, as the judge stated, is very rare in cases such as mine. I could not ask for a better outcome. Post-sentencing, I continue to receive support from Cole in dealing with the terms of my probation and establishing a plan for eventual expungement to clear my record. I highly recommend Cole Casey and his legal team. I honestly do not think I would be continuing to live my life as I am today if I had not had his expert representation.

This is your man!

Do not hesitate to contact Mr. Cole Casey, especially if it is for a DUI case. While I was visiting San Diego, I was charged with a DUI. The second I contacted Mr. Casey he completely took over and handled everything! He worked meticulously and effectively, always keeping ahead of everything while al...ways having my best interest in mind. He was able to make my DUI disappear within just a few weeks. I will definitely always recommend him to anyone seeking legal help.

Always Made Himself Available & Amazing Outcome! Best DUI Lawyer

Cole was incredible throughout the entire process. He always answered me immediately whether I reached out by call or text, and got back to me quickly regardless the seriousness of my question, I knew I was in such good hands. It was like having a friend in my corner versus an attorney. I was potenti...ally going to need to have an interlock device in my car, have to serve community service, and was also facing the loss of my license for an additional span of time. He was able to get the charges reduced where both the community service and interlock device were not required and the additional suspension of my license was reduced. I could not be more grateful/thankful for the work he did for me (I knew he was in my corner every step of the way) and the outcome he achieved for me. He never misled me or made a promise he could not keep, he was authentic from beginning to end. Highly recommend.

In my corner every step of the way

I made a huge one time mistake in March of 2018 and knew my life would never be the same. Not only did I get into a severe roll over car accident due to my alcohol consumption, my young child was also in the vehicle. I’m ashamed to even admit that I myself put my child in danger that evening, but the...se were my reasonings for needing the skill set of somebody like Mr. Casey to represent me. Thankfully, my child was left unharmed which was obviously the most important thing to me. However, then I faced some serious charges as well as prison time. I’m also a single mother, never been away from my child, or been in any type of trouble, so this was all a lot for me to handle emotionally and mentally as well considering what I was facing moving forward with my life after this major mistake. Cole made several suggestions right away, and I followed all of them. Before the courts had even contacted us, I was in outpatient treatment 15 hours a week, attending AA, and more. I was relentless in trying to do whatever I could to prove to the courts that yes, I was guilty, but that I was extremely remorseful. Without Mr. Casey’s guidance from the very beginning stages following this accident, I doubt I would have received the outcome we did. It took several months for my paperwork to be processed, so prior to arraignment I had certificates and proof of sobriety to show. The process was terrifying to me, and Mr. Casey was always there to answer any questions and to advocate for me appropriately in court. He truly wanted to see me stay out of jail or prison and he did just that. On sentencing day, we had no clue if I would spend any actual custody time, which was scary, but he had helped to show the judge all of my hard work to rectify my mistake and instead of 1-6 years in prison was given a max of 30 days in county as a potential. On sentencing day, he represented me beautifully and I walked out of court that day with only community service, a year of parenting classes, and some restitution. I do have felony probation as well. But that would have been an outcome with or without serving jail time. I feel Mr Casey did his job as my lawyer and was always very communicative with me even if it was things I didn’t want to hear. I appreciate all of his recommendations and for his words at sentencing that helped to get us the outcome that we got. I was able to go home to my child, which ultimately was priceless. Once I’ve completed my community service, classes, and restitution Mr Casey has promised we will go back to court and ask to reduce my felony to a misdemeanor. I would recommend him and his expertise to anybody who needs the help of a talented and educated lawyer for your dui defense.
