Look no further you’ve found the perfect lawyer!
Working with this lawyer was a great experience, after interviewing many. I was extremely happy I chose him. He was available whenever I needed his help. Whether it was a phone call or a text. I was also able to see him on the weekends, being that I have a busy work schedule. I felt protected by him, he was very professional, compassionate and determined. He made sure I understood everything regarding my case every step of the way. I highly recommend this lawyer if you’re looking for someone to win your case. Look no further you’ve found the perfect lawyer!

Best Attorney in the Inland Empire
If your looking for an Attorney look no further! After many bad experiences with previous attorneys, Mr. Lin was referred to me by a family friend who had a successful resolution to his cases using Mr. Lin’s Services. I can say, without any shadow of a doubt, that moving forward with Paul Lin by my side was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. He was able to correct all the mistakes of my previous attorney, as well as get me the 2nd chance I deserved. Paul is very professional, knowledgeable, non-judgmental, and well respected in his field. I owe him so much more than a thank you. He is the very best.

Unnecessary Case
Paul started out as just helping on my case and then my lead attorney went on vacation and Paul took over...he worked diligently and fought very hard for me. He helped me when I really did not understand as this was my first time ever in this situation and for that I am forever grateful. He makes sure I am ok and he goes above and beyond to fight for you as his client.......he was able to fight my case and I did not have to appear until my trial because I live in another state.....he is the best criminal attorney I know and I will recommend him to anyone and if I ever needed him again I know I could call him.......he is now considered my family.....HE IS AWESOME

Case was dismissed
I was assigned Mr. Lin as my attorney, and throughout the whole process he was very professional and made things easy for me to understand. I only ever had to show up to one court hearing, he handled the rest for me. Originally I was facing a felony charge, and in the end the entire case was dismissed.

Attorney With Integrity
He was very thorough and very professional. He knows what he is doing in the court room and gets what he requests for his clients. He is always looking out for your best interest and takes every avenue available to fight for your case. He is available, reliable, honest and does everything you expected of a defense attorney.

Paul Leonidas Lin
This attorney listened to me and didn't try to convince me to accept a plea bargain when that would have been easier. He had confidence in me and made it easy for me to show proof and even had his own investigator work on my behalf. His investigator did interviews with key people and gathered all the things he needed to have my case dropped on the first day that my trial would have started.He was professional , easy to get a hold of, and helped me by filling in on court days I didn't really have to be present for by showing up in my place.He also helped me get court minutes or documents that I needed even after my case was closed. He also gathered information on the other party's backround showing the character of the person with the false alligations. He is the best and I know now if I ever have any legal problems or any family or close friend needs an attorney, without a doubt he would be the one. Sincerely, Dawn
