Duii dilemma dismissed!

As a new attorney, practicing law in Newport, Oregon; David Arganian was appointed as my public defender in my DUII case. I have to admit I was very apprehensive at first, due to the factors of my case and how the court system operates in Lincoln County. But what a refreshing change from the norm. He... actually listened intently as I gave him the details of my case, and allowed me to ask questions about how things were handled and if my rights were violated. He was able to explain in great detail how this could affect my future and felt we had a decent chance of winning the case if I decided to request a trial. So i did, under his advice request a hearing trial. To my amazement, he was able to show the DA, how it was in everyone's best interest to dismiss all charges based on how the events unfolded the night of my arrest. David is an knowledgable and ambitious attorney, who's not afraid to take a stand on his clients.behalf. He answered all my questions in a way, I could easily understand, and did not prejudge me based on my file, or my charges. It was truly a great experience working with Mr. Arganian and if I ever need the service, in the future, he definitely will be my first call. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you.

David is a GOD in criminal defense

I got arrested with 14 measure 11 charges , and within 30 days , I was released with complete dismissal. He kept me updated in every step of the process , he is very ethical , and not afraid to hold those who prosecute accountable for their deceitful procedures. Thank you David !!!

Hired David Arganian in Federal Court case

David Arganian is honest with great knowledge of Criminal Justice. He was highly recommended from another client that hired him in a federal case and had great results. I was facing 84 to 112 months in federal prison for a conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance. I hired david afte...r having a consultation with him. He explained the terms of the case and how the Federal system works to me so I understood. I was scared if I did not plead out at the time the government would place a mandatory sentence of 5 years or 10 years. My family and i are very pleased with hiring David Arganian with results of no minimum sentence. I received less than 5 years with an extended 6 weeks to self surrender. David also helped me with other issues of traffic violations, appeals with department of licensing . And currently helping with divorce matters . David's representation has proven he cares and will fight for satisfaction for my family and I.

Blatant Thievery

Retained him for a criminal case; spoke to me ONCE, 3 months later he had done absolutely nothing. I called him and advised him that I was seeking alternate counsel due to an absolute lack of effort on his part and a concomitant complete lack of faith in his abilities. I asked him how much of our ret...ainer was left, and was advised that $1200.00 of our retainer was unspent. I demanded that he cease and desist all efforts on my case and advised him that I wished my monies returned. I called him the next week to arrange a meeting to recover my monies, and was told that he had "spent the remaining money making copies of everything on my case to make it easier for my next attorney." This is blatantly violative of the Rules of Professional Conduct, and ELC

I believe this statement to be completely false. I did not represent anyone with that set of facts the person outlines in their ‘review.’ I do not believe this person was ever a client of mine.
