I was calling around for lawyers and had no experience because I never ever needed a DMV lawyer in my life, because simply, I don’t break the law. However, no matter how minor my case was, I felt like it was in my best interest to have representation since you never know who you get at DMV hearings o...r what mood they’re in. After calling numerous lawyers in the OC for a week, I got tired of the ones that were just after the money. One lawyer just told me to come into his office and pay $100 so he can consult me if I even needed a lawyer or not. Another lawyer basically said my case was so simple that he didn’t have time to take it. A few other lawyers just said they have never heard of anything like my case but they *think* they can help me. Most of them didn’t want to talk on the phone for long, and the ones that I emailed kept their responses short because they’d rather work on actual cases that involved DUI’s and cost over $10k. I started to worry that even if a lawyer did take my case, they wouldn’t pay attention to it. Either way, Julia was one of the last lawyers I found and called. She called me back right away and I explained my situation. To my surprise she talked to me for over 30 minutes on the phone about my case. I got more helpful information from her than all the other 10+ lawyers that I called. In addition, she knows the people at the DMV soooooo well that she explained to me clearly what I needed to do and who I needed to talk to, and what information I needed to find out about my case. I started to feel like I didn’t need a lawyer after I talked to her. I called her back later because I still had questions, and she found out I was nearby. So she actually waited for me to get off work to meet her, and then we talked for almost an hour on a bench. So nice right? This was like almost 8pm! I was really surprised by how much effort she put into hearing me out and “comforting” me because I had never been in this situation before. It was precisely because she was so helpful, that I decided to hire her because she made me feel safer. I felt that someone was on my side watching out for me. It was money well spent. Worth several months not shopping or going out!! Her office is also full of competent people! Naly is her paralegal and she also watches out for you and keeps tabs on your case. There was an issue where a someone made a mistake, but Naly caught it right away and saved me so much time. It was because of her that my case didn’t drag on forever until the Earth exploded into a Supernova and our Universe got sucked into a super massive black hole and all life on Earth and in our tiny Universe ended as we know it. I know you’re probably wondering, “Is this true? Sounds too good to be true!” To be honest, that’s what I thought too. But it’s not. I think it’s because Julia just really wants to help people. She’s young, she’s smart, she’s like you and me, she's relatable, she understands what we’re going through and just happens to have spent years learning about the law to know how to protect us. Julia is also very charismatic and adaptable, she can size people up right away and knows how to handle them. This is truly an asset for a lawyer, because that’s what they have to do all day long. And in many cases, the result of a case is dependent upon how much talent in this area a lawyer has, and Julia is truly gifted here. You know how sometimes there are really aggressive or easy going lawyers? There’s a time and place for everything and if miscalculated you can really piss off the wrong person. I felt completely safe that Julia would be able to read the situation clearly and know how to act, and how to advise me to act. TL;DR: If you need a lawyer, hire Julia or you may regret it. And the DMV is not something you want to take chances on. Really.

I am grateful that I found Julia Simmons to represent my case. From the first consultation to the end of my case she was honest, responsive to all questions, extremely knowledgeable and her experience as a lawyer is second to none. I would gladly recommend Julia to any person seeking legal help inc...luding friends and family. She not only negotiated an amazing deal for me she also guided me in the right direction to get help. Julia Simmons was a huge part in changing my life and she is more than worth every penny that I spent retaining her services. Thanks Julia!!!!

It is important that you know that before speaking with Julia Simmons, I had consulted with 3 lawyers. Two, simply wanted to take my money (and would have also create a problem for me because I was not charged with any crime) and one that did not handle my type of case but I asked him if he could mak...e a referral and he gave me Julia Simmon's phone number and I am so thankful he did. I called on a Thursday night and I was pleasantly surprised when the call went through. The call was lengthy and she asked all facts regarding my situation and answered all my questions with honesty and also provided me with a wealth of information that was beneficial. I could tell right away that not only was she being honest but she also wanted to give me peace of mind because she could tell I was nervous and of course scared. I was shocked once again that our conversation revolved around whether I needed to hire a lawyer or not, not once did she discussed fees or taking action simply so I can hire her (the other two lawyers did). She thoroughly explained my situation to me and stated I did not need a lawyer at this time but I pressed to meet with her in person because I wanted to ask her more questions. I asked her what her fee was for a consultation and she said it was free. She met me two days later on Saturday morning at 9am. In person, she was personable, franc, easy to talk to and above all patient. Her advice has proven true and as of now I do not to hire a lawyer but God forbid I may need one, I have her on speed dial and without hesitation I know I will have a good lawyer on my side. Lastly, in our first conversation I truly felt she just wanted to help and I thanked her a bunch of times for her honest helpful advice, for not wanting to take my money and for seeing me in person after already speaking with her. In round about way I asked her why she was like that and she said, "listen, it's called Karma, you just gotta be honest and help people because everything comes back around, if you do good, it will come back to you and if you don't do good it will also come back to you." I agree. If you need a DUI or related cases attorney, you 100% will be in good care.

Julia explained my situation to me in a way I could understand and also explained how most doctors work in regarding medical evaluation. If I had the money to hire her, I would, because i got the feeling that she could really help. But she gave me enough advice to try and go about this on my own. I w...ould also call back if I had any further questions. Thanks Julia for all your advice.

Julia explained to me thay I wouldn't b able to fight this dui I had at north court justice center! She was being totally honest with me and explained why I couldn't, I called other lawers with a lot of promises but she said that north court doesn't make any deals and not to waste my money... that wo...uld of put me a a deep hole financially
