Genuinely great guy.

Anthony Valente went over and beyond what I asked of him when dealing with my case. The outcome was great and exceeded my expectations by far. If you've found yourself in need of a criminal lawyer you're not going to find one better than Anthony Valente. Not only is Anthony Valente a great lawyer, he... turned out to be a great friend.

Law at its Best!

Never in a million years did I ever think I would need a defense attorney; however, life doesn't always go as planned. After being arrested for DUI at a checkpoint, I knew I needed an attorney, but was overwhelmed with the task of choosing one. I contacted a friend who is a private investigator, and ...after putting some feelers out, Tony Valente was named as the best defense attorney in the Coachella Valley. I immediately contacted Tony, who agreed to meet with me the same day; which I believe was either a Sunday, holiday. Tony enthusiastically greeted me as I entered his office, took the time to listen to my explanation of the events which led to my arrest, ask important questions, and told me he would do everything he could to help me. He and his partner, Emily, were both extremely honest and knowledgeable about the law, and always kept me informed as to the goings-on of my case. He was always available to talk; returning phone calls immediately if he was unable to answer when I called. I was beyond pleased with the amount of work Tony put into my case, and I trusted that he had my best interest at heart. He kept me updated on his progress regularly, and genuinely cared about how I was feeling while we were waiting for the outcome. As soon as he and Emily heard word that they had won my case, he called me with the news; which of course thrilled me beyond belief. I was so fortunate to have Tony on my side. If I am ever in need of an attorney again, I would not hesitate to hire him again. I could never thank him enough for what he has done for me!

The best Freggin Attorney in the WORLD.

Tony handled/handling 2 cases for me. My MAJOR case is over because Against ALL ODDS this PASSIONATE, ANALYTICAL, DETAIL ORIENTED, ABSOLUTLY BRILLIANT Lawyer wrote the most COMPELLING Motions. They blew me away AS WELL as the Judge on my case, which was DISMISSED.... THROWN OUT !!! Mr T is the best..., your lucky if you retain him

Brilliant & Compassionate

Mr Valente is an outstanding individual aside from being a Brilliant Lawyer. His Knowledge & Experience greatly benefited my case as well as eased the process as a whole.

DUI

I was charged with a DUI in early May, never being in trouble before I was terrified of the repercussions both professionally and personally. I went on about 4 other legal consultations, but the first time I felt at ease is when I sat down with Mr. Valente. He was able to win my DMV hearing, preservi...ng my license. Also he was able to get my charge reduced to a wet wreckless driving. Mr Valente is very detail oriented and was very honest and upfront with me throughout the last few months. I truly believe that he always had my best interest at hand and through this scary, stressful process that brought me peace of mind, which is something that I will always be eternally grateful for. Anthony is a great man and very professional, hard working attorney. I would recommend his legal services to anyone who finds themselves in an unfavorable situation, he really does care!
