This is who you want

I unfortunately found myself in a heap of trouble with a DUI case, and happened to find Shawn through word of mouth. He guided me through everything I needed to do, both with DMV and criminal court, advised me in what I could start on before even getting to court, and managed to work magic on my beha...lf. He knows everyone involved in these kinds of cases in the court system, since he does this every working day (and I’m guessing even on his days “off”) and that alone pays dividends. He kept his ear to the ground to find the best way forward to minimize the pain, and in my particular case, he managed to get me into the diversion process, the best case scenario. That doesn’t mean the work is done, but now I can breathe again for the first time in over a year. Thanks, Shawn!

DUI Help!

Shawn was the first lawyer I called and I am glad I did. Navigating the process and all legal questions was done by him. You meet others in the same situation that do not know where they are at or miss filings. I did not have to worry it was all taken care of. I could get over the situation and move ...forward.

DUI

Shawn is an amazing lawyer who is extremely well articulated and knowledgeable about almost any offense you may have. He works diligently and communicates exceptionally well. He will always let you know what happens with your case via cellular updates. He works with your price range and be rest assur...ed he knows exactly what he’s doing in every case. He is formerly educated at a wonderful law school and is up to date on current policy changes and/or any updates along the way. Give him a call, and he can make your anxiety go away.

Shawn Salehieh is well trusted

I have known Shawn for 20+ years, and he helped me avoid litigation on matters that could have otherwise easily ended up in court. He has a fine legal manner that enhances his knowledge of the law. Shawn is organized and he delivers results. San Francisco's finest.

Best Lawyer Ever!

I have never needed to contact a layer before nor been in the court system, however in March 2010, the inevitable occurred and I contacted my first Criminal Defense Lawyer, luckily it was Shawn Shahid Salehieh. I have to say, there are not enough words in the dictionary to describe how grateful I was... to have meet Shawn during these stressful times. From the first day, he kept me calm by taking the time to explain the court process and the specifics to my case in laymen terms. My parents were very involved from the beginning and Shawn answered all their questions. Being a critical care registered nurse, I know how important it is to advocate for my patience’s and Shawn displayed those characteristics. Shawn is very knowledgeable, respectful and knows how to win cases. I would recommend his services without any hesitation. Hopefully, I will never have to appear in court again, but if I had too, I would have Shawn Shahid Salehieh represent my case in a heartbeat! Regards and God Bless,
