Great job!

I hired Ryan because of a driving under the influence. I was charged with. To make a long story short,Ryan really put the time in, and proved the the Officer / DA's case was weak , & unjust. Case Dismissed!

Well Satisfied With Result

I hired Mr. Birss when a past conviction got in the way of my application for teaching credential clearance. Mr. Birss was able to successfully have my charges dropped down to a misdemeanor, then getting my records expunged altogether. He was quick to respond to any questions I had, and facilitated t...he whole process smoothly. I couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Above-Average & Responsive

On 8/19/17 I was arrested and jailed in Red Bluff, Calif. on a charge of DUI. I reside in Alameda County and needed a local attorney to shepherd me through the criminal justice system. Ryan provided the legal representation I needed and he did an excellent job. He has good interpersonal skills an...d emotional intelligence, and he helped me through a stressful time. He consistently treated my with dignity and respect throughout. I recommend him without hesitation.

Straight Forward and Knowledgeable

Was very straight forward with the risks involved in the case. Was knowledgeable on laws and prior similar cases. Always answered all of my questions(which I had millions of) and answered them in a timely manner. I would recommend Ryan and would hire him again if I have more cases.
