OC's best Criminal Defense Attorney

I have worked for this attorney for the past six years conducting investigations to support the defense of his clients. He has the knowledge and experience to navigate the legal system to get the results you want. Additionally, I have never seen another attorney that puts himself in the shoes of the... client. This attorney will work hard and never lie to you about your options. Some attorneys dance around the answers, but Steph gives them to you straight.

Stephan DeSales did the impossible!

Stephan DeSales is the best for Orange County ,CA North Court! He handled a criminal case I had there very professionally. If you need a good attorney in orange county CA North court he is the guy to call. It was worth every penny I spent on him. I strongly suggest calling him before any other attor...ney. He was honest in telling me wether I had a chance to beat my case and he did it for me. He is the best in the business believe that, thank you Steph DeSales!

DeSales Delivers!!

Our Son was charged with 5 felonies... We were in big trouble until someone felt sorry for us and recommended Stephen DeSales. After our first meeting my Wife and I knew He was going to get us through the nightmare. He will fight for you until the very end, He will not give up.... End result all f...elonies dismissed. He plead guilty to a minor misdemeanor. DeSales even got that removed from His record. So in the end everything was dismissed. THANKS MR. DESALES!!

Defended and negotiated great terms, Removed Probation Early!!

Highly recommended, especially the Orange County Area. Steph is honest and kick ass - he does not back down, and instead fights, or negotiates with the DA, and knows how to strategize. Recently negotiated my probation removal, and this guy can take on the biggest cases including RICO, and other Feder...al charges.

Thank you Mr. Desales

Mr. Desales represented one of my family members in a criminal matter. He did an outstanding job in resolving the case and the outcome went well beyond my expectations. I must add that the resolution also served the justice system well. It was both compassionate and just, for which I have to thank... Mr. Desales. He understands the legal system and he very apparently has a good rapport with the justice system community, which allows him to work out reasonable and just solutions.
