DUI with high BAC

I was charged with a high alcohol DUI with an accident. There were lots of holes and weird things going on in the case. The City Attorney really wanted to throw the book at me. A friend recommended Mike Fremont to me, saying that he is a good attorney and very aggressive, that he would fight for me. ... After an initial meeting, Fremont and his office took over everything for me, which was awesome because I didn’t know where to start, or what to do. The City Attorney was being unreasonable, and wanted to go to a trial. It was stressful finding myself in front of a Jury, with the City Attorney chasing the harshest possible punishment. Freemont would not let up, and thanks to his knowledge of the law, was able to have my BAC thrown out. The City Attorney fought until he realized that Fremont had him backed in a corner, at which point I was pled to a regular DUI, and was able to do the standard 3 month course rather than House arrest, 9 month classes, significant auto restrictions, etc. Fremont’s knowledge of the law, the respect he received from the courts, and his perseverance saved my job.

DUI

Mike is a great guy that is willing to help you and work around your schedule. I obtained a DUI 6 years ago that was dropped by Mr. Fremont. Now, 6 years later, I am going through a background investigation with the Los Angeles City Fire Department and I needed information on the case. I contacted Mi...ke and he was very willing to help me find information on this case. So much that he is going back to the courthouse to pull my file and get the paperwork on it! Again, he is a great guy and will give you his private phone number so that you can contact him and work around yours and his schedule. I highly recommend Mr. Fremont!!

"Stroke" of Luck

My boyfriend was charged with felony sales of narcotics, felony possession of a controlled substance, and felony possession of ammunition by an ex-felon. Mike Fremont steps up in court and negotiates the charges with the DA. The modified charges become misdemeanor possession of a controlled subst...ance for personal use and possession of ammunition. My boyfriend pled guilty and was sentenced to a 270-day suspended sentence with a typical 3-year 4th waiver formal probation package which he signed and failed to follow through. My boyfriend suffered a stroke and I became his caretaker. I reviewed the conditions of his probation because he was picked up for a violation for not reporting to probation. I contacted Mike Fremont in a state of outrage. I begged him to fight for my boyfriend and get him an appropriate sentence because he was just unable to meet the terms of his sentence in his physical condition and I could not carry him myself. In court, Mike touched on every matter I had asked him to and my boyfriend was released within hours and the terms of his new probation were drastically modified to accommodate his disabilities. Mike Fremont has a courtroom presence that screams for fair and reasonable terms and in our case, they were all met. Thank you, Mr. Fremont for recognizing and demanding fairness in an imperfect judicial system. We are deeply grateful to you for helping us through the legal battle.

Divine Intervention.

Mr. Fremont was the intervention needed in order to save my life as well as my sanity. I was on a course leading to certain death and could not find the strength to save myself. After being arrested for DUI'S that would certainly amount to jail and possibly a felony conviction, Mr. Fremont inter...vened to make this not the reality and was able to persuade the Judge to have me wear the SCRAM anklet as well as attend AA. This allowed the freedom to come home and keep my job and home. A year of waiting for the sentence had me very apprehensive, yet, God, and Mr. Fremont, kept me calm and gave me the strength to confront the outcome. Mr. Fremont continuously kept me informed and provided the reassurance to feel secure with his diligence to intervene and keep me free. Mr. Fremont performed the impossible, in my mind, with the result. His extraordinary work set me free to walk from the courtroom with no jail time, no felony, no fines. Divine. The judge, the bailiff, the courtroom clerk, all were considerate to suggest what a transformation from the first time seeing me a year prior. Mr. Fremont told in 27 years of work, he had not witnessed this. The simple truth and fact is Mr. Fremont took his brilliance and determination to task, and this provided all in the courtroom witness to a miracle. Mr. Fremont, you saved my life, quite literally. Perhaps, if you need this miracle, this Divine intervention, let me once more give his name.. Mr. Michael Jon Fremont. Happy Easter, Mr. Fremont. I am free to enjoy this Easter day in God's majesty. Thank you.

Got me what I want

Mike is a great lawyer he saved me from getting a ignition interlock device which was huge for me. My BAC was a .23 and he still got me off. Mike is a little rough when you first get to know him, but trust me he's got the experience to get you the best outcome possible. If you got a DUI he is the ...man. You can't beat the amount of experience he brings!
