Case Dismissed

I’ve known Paul Tyler professionally for many years and he has always been courteous and efficient. It wasn’t until I needed his services recently that I found out how knowledgeable, helpful, and professional he also is. Paul was very organized and was very good at communicating my court dates and wh...at had transpired which put me at ease. I had never been in trouble so I was extra anxious about everything and Paul was very understanding. Ultimately he got my case dismissed and I am very thankful!

You Won't find a better attorney in Ventura County

Paul Tyler has been my Attorney for 10 years now and he continues to impress me by going above and beyond my needs. He does not call me to let me know he did something, Paul is the type to just get it done and does not seek praise for it or waiste his valuable time trying to convince people he is a ...great lawyer. His past speaks for itself.

So glad that I contacted Paul Tyler! True Experienced Professional! Highly recommend!

I am so glad that I hired Paul Tyler to represent me! He took on my case last minute, two days before the court date. Only someone with extensive experience would take on a case that close to the date and the fact that he did shows true dedication to his profession. He was very genuine, sincere and p...rofessional through his correspondence and explained very clearly how he would defend me. I had been charged with public drunkenness 647(f) PC. He got my case completely dismissed which was the best possible outcome and I could not be happier. So thankful and grateful for Paul Tyler being a true professional and going above and beyond defending me and getting my case dismissed!

647(f) commonly referred to as "drunk in public" can be handled aggressively and will often result in a dismissal. Proof is generally lacking and there are never any breath or blood test to substantiate that an individual was under the influence. I'm glad yours was dismissed as well!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
