Aggressive criminal defense attorney in Northern California. I grew up here in Northern California and live here still today. I believe in working hard and aggressively defending people's rights at trial. From Shasta to Oakland to Los Angeles, I have represented many high profile clients with discretion and professional sensitivity. Additionally, I am active in the Contra Costa Bar Association where I recently completed a tenure as the Vice Chair of the Criminal Law Section.

Mr. Tully is one of the most passionate attorneys that I have worked with and have seen in Court. He is both a skilled negotiator and trial attorney which benefits his clients on both fronts. He truly believes in his clients and fights tirelessly on their behalf. Anybody who has hired Mr. Tully to represent him/her in a criminal matter has made a very wise choice.

I endorse Joseph Tully. He is very knowledgeable in criminal defense and knows the Contra Costa Superior Courts very well. Most importantly, Joseph demonstates that he cares about his clients.
