Danica Michelle Mazenko

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.

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

I have a federal charge for conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine. I was charged with dozens of people and was facing ten years in federal prison. I worked with Danica for three years as my case progressed. She saw that I was scared and showed compassion while also being honest about what she thou...ght would happen. She and Ben worked with the Bail Project to get me bond, so I could get out of custody on pre-trial release and go to treatment for my addiction. Over the years since then, Danica has encouraged me in my path to recovery, and kept me informed as we went through the legal proceedings. Eventually, I pled guilty and was sentenced to three years, which is about 7 less than the government initially asked from the judge. My lawyers worked with the AUSA to get me the best recommendation possible, and helped me understand each step of the process. I also got an RDAP recommendation, which should shave about 12 months off of my sentence. 10 years down to 2 is better than I could have hoped for! My lawyers truly cared about me and my future, kept me informed, were quick to respond to my inquiries, and got me a great outcome. I recommend Danica to anyone with a federal charge, a drug charge, anyone who is afraid of doing time in custody, or who wants a compassionate and fierce advocate on their side!
