Highly Recommended Attorney

Mr. Waitman is a constant professional and extremely efficient attorney I have had the pleasure representing me. On my second DUI, I was certain I would have to face the most severe punishments passed by the court in California. Yet, Mr. Waitman was able to convince to the DA and Judge that my lapses... in judgement is not the irresponsibility person whom I may be perceived as. The court was lenient enough for me to keep my job and carry out the minimum punishments for a second DUI. I highly recommend Mr. Waitman as an attorney to anyone

Outstanding Attorney!

I strongly recommend Mr. Waitman. He was able to get my "drunk in public" dismissed despite having two prior incidents, back to back. He is knowledgeable in his profession, answering all my questions in a timely matter. I wouldn't go with anyone.

Thank you Jeremy!

Jeremy assisted Mr. Barba with my 2+ year ongoing DUI case. I was able to talk with Jeremy anytime Mr. Barba was not available and he always gave me great advice. Though he didn't need to, Jeremy came to a few of the days of my trial and would stay after to help explain what to expect for the next da...y. After my trial (which resulted in a hung jury) concluded, Jeremy took over and was able to talk the DA, who had refused to budge on giving me any kind of break for 2 years, into giving me plea bargain of a wet reckless which saved me from losing my liscense! I was blown away by Jeremy's dedication to my case and to me as a client. He was so friendly and easy to talk to throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend him if you need any kind of representation for a DUI case.

Best in the Business

I've had to deal with more than a few lawyers in my life, but none of them hold a subpoena to my recent attorney, Jeremy Waitman. This man is a killer shark in the court-room! With his young professional image and charming legal rhetoric, Waitman has gotten me through some tough situations. He is als...o on great terms with several of the judges who currently serve within the district, and recently, Waitman got my Malicious Mischief infraction expunged. Trust no one else.
