This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

He has qualities sought by many but attained by few

Absolutely superb! He quickly accepted me as a client. He and his complete team took the bull by the horns and systematically tore into my case bit by bit overlooking nothing. He and his team members were able to get a very tough case where jail was mandatory and got the case Dismissed. I am confiden...t no one else could have done this. Im not going to tell the secrets but I know what Im talking about. The DA not only wanted to put me in the jail but also under the jail. Through dogged determination, hard work, his work ethic and knowledge he was able to turn a very tough case where I was headed to spend a minimum of 90 mandatory days in jail, not to mention, lofty fines, and a criminal charge on my records. I know how he did it but Im not giving his secrets away. You just have to take my word for it. And if you are military or have prior military service dont walk but but run to this mans office. Dont be late and do everything he tells you. You will not be disappoined. This man and his team saved my life from being ruined. Natalio Pereira is a life saver and he is a smooth, calm and fast operator. He gets positive results quickly. He will take a tough job and make it seem easy. I know that no one could have gotten me a dismissal except him. See for yourself. He will fight for you and wont let you down when the going gets tough. The worse the situation the harder an smarter he works. Feel honored if he will accept your case, support him fully, let him get to know you and do what he tells you. You wont be disappointed I will guarantee you that.

Life Saver!

My wife and I were in a hopelessly desperate situation. While we attended the hearing, there was an attorney there tending to one of his cases. I heard him speak to the judge with such confidence that even the judge pushed back. I absolutely loved this attorney's tenacity and energy in defending his ...client. He was the type of attorney we needed. When my wife met me in the hallway, she started telling me how she was highly impressed by this one attorney present at her hearing. While we were in the hallway, an attorney passed by us. My wife saw him and immediately pointed at him, saying "That's him!" He was the same attorney I was impressed with too! We approached him and asked for his help. He introduced himself as Natalio. He was so generous and very empathetic. We told him our problem and he spoke to us for a long time, answering every question with patience. We hired him and it was the best decision we made. He was able to get the case dismissed despite the odds against us. To this day, a few years later, I find it amazing how he was able to get our case dismissed. He is an absolute go-getter, very confident and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend him. Whenever someone needs help, I always refer him or her to Natalio without hesitation. Whatever you do, please call him first before you call anybody else. You won't regret it.

The Best!!

The best lawyers I've ever had!! Made me feel at ease with my situation. I would recommend them to anyone. I was certain that I was facing jail time for my 2 probation violations, but somehow, they were able to keep me out of jail and I am finally able to live a normal life. Thank you so much!

"Nate is truly the “pitbull” attorney who fights for his clients rights every step of the way! I have seen him in trial and also negotiating cases in chambers. The combination of legal skills and charisma serve to render better than average outcomes for his clients. I highly recommend Nate for criminal defenses cases in Los Angeles and Orange County."

"Natalio is well respected in the legal community. He takes all his cases very seriously. He will analyze your case to determine if there is any way to weaken the prosecutions case or get your case dismissed. He is a fighter and is not afraid to be firm with the judge or prosecutor to get his point across. He has a sense of passion for what he does and it's readily apparent when he is in the courtroom advocating on behalf of his client. I endorse Natalio."

"Natalio is a young lawyer who is eager to do whatever it takes to assist his clients. He always puts 100 per cent of himself into each and every case he handles. As a former boxer he knows how to take a punch and throw one back even harder. If you are looking for a lawyer who is very accessible and devotes enormous amounts of time to preparing his cases, he'd like nothing more than to be in your corner."
