Excellent Service!

David was assigned to two of my cases while working as a public defender in OR. At first I was representing myself because I was worried that a PD would not fight as hard as I would. I never had to worry about that. In both cases he went above and beyond using his experience and knowledge of the l...aw to have them both dismissed. In one case he outsourced a PI to contact multiple charachter witnesses who testified against the plantiff. It felt like having a pack of dogs defending me from harm with a broken leg in the woods. He fought harder than I could have alone and significantly increased the efficiency and effectiveness of my defense. His professionalism, dedication, punctuality, and direct nature were in line with what I would expect if I paid a lawyer 20 grand. I could not have asked more of him. I am very grateful that he was appointed to my cases.

I Highly Recommend David Arganian.

David Arginian represented me in court recently and we won! David is confident and direct, knowledgeable and insightful. He listened to all my concerns and kept me completely informed throughout the legal process. He was aggressive in court and held the prosecution accountable for having no e...vidence to back their claims. David kept a record of all my compiled personal evidence, found an expert witness for my defense and at the end of the day, had all my charges dropped and we won the case! I can’t thank this man enough for his commitment to helping me through this hard time in my life and for exceeding all my expectations. -Andrew S. [ DUI CASE ]

Court appointed for traffic crime case

David was court appointed to me for a criminal traffic offense and was very helpful, professional, and responsive during the length of my case. Reminded me of things without being asked to and was straight forward with me regarding my case. Case was finished on a note that was positive to my situati...on and what I believe to have been the best case scenario for me.

Best Court Appointed Attorney!

I was involved in a rather unusual DUI case where I was unjustly arrested in front of my home. I was rather upset, as one would be when being wrongly arrested. My behavior during the arrest was used against me to paint an inaccurate perception of me. I eagerly wanted to prove my case but financially ...wouldn't be able to afford the longevity of the attorney fees. The court appointed Mr. Arganian to my case and after the first meeting with him I was immediately greeted with professionalism, understanding, and an eagerness that matched mine in wanting to prove my case. I left his office confident in his knowledge of the law, especially pertaining to DUI cases, how the court system works, along with the way he carries himself. Over the course of my trial my confidence/trust in Mr. Arganian grew. He is very relaxed and comfortable in the courtroom. Nothing, during my almost 2 year long case, took Him by surprise, and in fact, he was able to address key factors and points that we hadn't previously discussed prior to the trial, on the fly! Mr. Arganian represented me and my case as flawless as humanly possible and I cannot be more grateful for his level of knowledge and the ability to put it into practice effectively. I won my trial, and was aquited of 2 charges that would have affected my life greatly. If I had to point out a flaw, as insignificant as it is, I would say Mr. Arganian can be blunt or impatient for lack of a better term. I believe this is because of the nature of the occupation, his knowledge of the court system and law, and the multitude of clients he represents. And believe me I'd rather have a straight to the point, blunt, no "beat around the bush" kind of person to represent me and hold frame in a courtroom setting than the latter. Of course I don't plan on any future court dealings, but I can whole-heartedly say I will seek this Gentleman out to represent me if the situation arises. Thank you, David, for your knowledge, work ethic, consistency, proffessionalism, and most of all, your time! I wish you the best! -Alexander Moe
