Best Criminal Defense Attorney Out There

I am so grateful for Ron. I mean it when I say you will not find better representation. Ron is a legal eagle, ace at the case, hole-in-one hotshot. My mom is an Orange County attorney, so I could have had free representation. Growing up with her, I am highly capable, even of representing myself. T...hat said, I have an exquisite level of discernment for selecting a hotshot. By the end of Ron working on my case, I actually paid him more than he asked for. If you are reading this review, tell me one person in this world who paid more than their attorney asked for. I would wager this is the only review you’ll see saying that—Ron is that guy. With his former DA experience, he WILL go to trial if necessary, and having that experience makes him an attorney rockstar. As soon as I retained him, he immediately began reaching out to all parties involved, gathering the necessary information, and submitting supporting documentation to the district attorney to back up my case in every way. Ron does not mess around. “You want to come at me with some type of allegation or nonsense, I will absolutely not tolerate that libel.” He’s the guy who stands firm for those dealing with lawfare shenanigans. “You picked the wrong person to mess with” is the reputation you get when Ron represents you. That’s how I felt from the very beginning and throughout the process. If you think Ron is treating you unfairly or did not get you the best possible outcome, you probably have some larger personal issues to address. It might be time to take some personal accountability—maybe talk to someone who can help with a wake-up call. Probably strongly encouraged to work through owning your actions or articulating them in a way that the rest of the world can sympathize with. Having expectations will almost always harm you in the end, especially if they are not clearly communicated. There is no right and wrong; even if you are 99.99999% right, be the bigger person. Hold yourself accountable for things you could have done differently that put you in bad situations or caused certain outcomes. Alongside this, develop the awareness and intuition to unselfishly understand the other side’s point of view versus blame. I can say with everything in me, Ron is worth every penny spent and then some. If you have any fighting chance at all in your case, this is the guy to close the book—not have it thrown at you. Ron is the best.

Highly Recommended.

Ron Cordova, Attorney at Law, helped me, during a difficult time in my life. I was arrested for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I felt that the police used heavy handed tactics. A conviction can cost you your job, and also affect future employment opportunities. I needed an attorney w...ho would fight for me. Ron knows the court system better than anyone, and he provides aggressive legal representation. Ron Cordova's aggressive, thorough legal work got the charges dropped. Afterward, he worked to get the arrest sealed, so that the arrest would not be seen by employers doing a background check. I kept my job, and way of life. Thank You Ron! Ron Cordova, Attorney at Law, will fight for you, to get the best possible outcome in your battle with the court system. Ron Cordova provides excellent legal representation, and his work gets the highest recommendation. He will fight for you. Get Ron Cordova as your attorney, or regret it.

The best criminal defense lawyer in Southern California

I am wholeheartedly recommending Mr. Ron Cordova for your legal service needs. He is a very knowledgeable and experienced lawyer and is well respected by all the staff and judges in the courtrooms. A family member made a mistake and got in serious trouble, and Mr. Cordova thoroughly explained, gu...ided us through the whole process, gave us the confidence to stay positive, and was able to negotiate with the DA office and the Judge for a very, very favorable deal for the family member. Mr. Cordova is sympathetic, dedicated, professional, and a pleasure to work with. He and his office staff are always available to answer any questions we have. Our family is blessed and very grateful to have Mr. Cordova help us during a very difficult time. THANK YOU, Mr. Cordova!

Hands down the best!

Mr.Cordova made time for me on a short notice. He immediately understood my situation and laid out a comprehensive action plan. I strongly believe his experience as a prosecutor makes him head and shoulders above those who have not been on the “other side”. From my family to yours thank you Mr. Co...rdoba!

I can rebuild my life and contribute positively

I made mistakes. I broke the law and knew it. Time was not on my side. I was scared, upset, and had a sense of dread that my life was over. Indeed, my actions were wrong and I knew that. But now was the time to mitigate the damage. I knew I needed help. I received Ron's name and he agreed to s...ee me right away. We discussed strategy and what he thought the next steps would be. He and his team went through the criminal defense process confidently and professionally. Considering the charges and my exposure, I'm exceptionally grateful for his ability to manage the risk and find a fair resolution for all concerned. On the other side of this mess, I am now free to rebuild my life in a meaningful and positive way. I'm exceptionally grateful to Ron and his team.
