Highly Recommend

My husband was in immigration detention for 18 months, and thanks to this attorney, I was finally able to pick him up — he is now home. In such a short period of time, she was able to achieve what felt impossible. Her professionalism, determination, and efficiency truly made the difference in our ...case. I am deeply grateful for her hard work and support during such a difficult time. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a strong and reliable immigration attorney.

Federal criminal defense with compassion

Danica was my lawyer on a federal supervised release violation case that stemmed from a friend’s poor choices while I was in the car.  His choices led to California attempting to prosecute me for a crime, and the feds coming after me for a probation violation since I was on Supervised release when th...is all happened.  Well, Danica listened to everything I had to say and she did her best to make the most of the situation.  I could tell she genuinely cared about me and getting me a fair sentence.  She always kept me updated on my case.  She even went above and beyond to contact the California case defense attorney to try to get the issues there resolved by requesting the evidence there be fingerprinted. Ultimately, she got me time served, and she even waited near the courthouse for my release.   I recommend Danica to anyone with a charge related to firearms, a federal charge, or a federal supervised release violation case.

Excellent Attorney with great compassion

My brother was arrested for federal charges of felon in possession of a firearm and conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. He was facing decades in prison. We were all terrified. Danica is representing him, and she has gone above and beyond to make sure that my brother is safe while in custody, an...d she fights for him to get the respect and dignity that every person deserves. She takes the time to explain the status of his case, and it is clear to me that she is passionate about fighting for freedom and compassionate with her clients and their family members. I recommend Danica to anyone facing criminal charges who wants diligent and responsive counsel who will fight for freedom at every turn.

Defendant

I was arrested at the border and charged with drug importation after someone I thought I was dating set me up I was very terrified and I was facing a mandatory of 10 years in prison. Ben and Danica explained everything to me and did everything they could to get me a shorter sentence so I could home ...to my kids sooner. I will only have to serve a fraction of the time in custody that I initially thought. Ben and Danica were always quick to answer my questions and communicate with my family they really cared about me and my kids. If you want great lawyers who get you a shorter sentence and easy to reach call them???? I really really appreciate your work and recommend you guys

Highly recommend

I was charged with the federal crime of Smuggling/Importation. The government wanted me to do 6-12 months of jail time. I was scared, especially because my girlfriend is pregnant with a high-risk pregnancy so she is not working right now. I explained everything to Ben and Danica. They told me what... to expect, helped me through every step of the process, and when I got sentenced, I never had to do any jail time! I recommend these attorneys.
