I could not be happier with choosing to retain Mr. Fremont! He is highly knowledgeable and professional. First offense with a high BAC. Mr. Fremont was able to reduce the BAC level, which is a lesser charge as well as reduce penalties and avoid the mandatory nine month program. I would definitely rec...ommend Michael Fremont!

Michael was the second lawyer I consulted with about a Second-Offence DUI. I knew that because of the details of my case that I would be charged with a "DUI with a Prior". I did not ask him to "get me clear" or anything outrageous, but did request that he help me "reduce" as much as possible and no j...ail. He assured me that my case would not see "Jail Time" so I hired him. I was moving to Long Beach at the time for work and was very busy opening a new restaurant. Mike requested a "Motion to Dismiss Evidence" because my blood was drawn, with a warrant, and the details of the blood-draw were vague. The motion was struck down because, according to the judge, Mike attempted to "sandbag" his argument with the blood draw, when he originally filed the Motion because of Probable Cause. First Red Flag. The day for sentencing came and I was ordered to pay a $2700 fine, 3 days of community service, completion of a Multiple Conviction Program, MADD panel, and, wait for it, 96 HOURS OF CUSTODY to be completed in 2 weekends. Of course I contacted Michael with my disappointment that his prior assurances were hollow. His solution was simply to appeal the case, but when I called his office as he instructed me to, he had my file in his "CASE CLOSED" pile. Second Red Flag. He struggled with having my sentence Stayed and even had to return to court to make them include the 96 hours of custody, which they wanted me to serve regardless of an appeal. At this time I am working over 50 hours a week and the only thing on my mind is serving out this sentence without assurance from my "trusted lawyer" that things would be alleviated. One full year passed for the appeal process and, of course, we lost. Mike made the same failed argument to the appeal judges that he did when he filed for the Motion to Dismiss Evidence. I had all of my sentence reinstated. Mike offered an alternative to serving 96 hours in county jail, though. He had me apply for CPAC so that I could serve 96 hours at home. After applying, CPAC contacted me about my docket not having CPAC approval. I contacted Mike, and after a few days (I had to reach out to him of course) told me that he "didn't know" that I WASN'T ELIGIBLE. The Final Failure. I am now two weeks away from spending my first weekend in county jail, ever. Throughout this arduous process, I want to make it known that Mike rarely ever got in contact with me of his own will, that I had to reach out to him 99% of the time, and even when I got him on the phone would have to remind him who I was. He clearly exercised neglect in my case, due to the fact that he gave me false information with CPAC. He did however take $3000 from me to show face in court, which I am sure isn't the only reason he had to appear. I will never drink and drive again, but to those who make the mistake and need representation that will fight for you, care about you, and make an effort to keep you "in the know", try talking to Mr. DUI first. $100 less with heaps more charisma and competence. Sorry Mike, but you dropped the ball hard. 2 stars only because I didn't have to appear in court while I am in LA.

I was facing serious charges 13 years ago (DUI with Hit and Run). Mr Fremont literally had my life in his hands. He was able to get all charges reduced to misdemeanors. Many years later after a recent background check there seems to be clerical errors. Mr Fremont immediately returned my emails, revie...wed by records and gave me some comfort that my charges should be recorded as misdemeanors. If needed I will not hesitate to retain further services. This all on Christmas Eve day!

I have hired Michael 3 times now. 2 Dui’s and both had a high alcohol breathalyzer. He was able to effectively argue both down to a slap on the wrist. I also owned a bar and referred to him 3 different cases and he helped them as well. The first DUI I received I met with “Top Gun” Dui lawyer and was ...quoted 10k and I could not afford that. I was lucky to find Michael which was a little less but still helped me out big time.
