I recommend Michael J Fremont

If you're ever charged with a DUI in Southern California, I recommend hiring Michael J. Fremont to represent you. He is very experienced in this area and has ample knowledge about it. He knows how to attack the state's case from every angle, using all resources at his disposal to get his client the b...est deal possible. I was charged with two consecutive DUIs and Mr. Fremont was able to get the first one dismissed. On the second one, I received probation. I'm grateful for the way he handled my situation, especially the first case. This attorney is very trustworthy and appears very comfortable and confident in a courtroom. He walks in there and talks to everybody as though he's just entered his own living room. Mr. Fremont also cares about the well-being of his clients beyond the courtroom. He is almost always available to answer any questions about your case and knows what he is doing.

Felony DUI reduced.

Mike Fremont helped me take a serious DUI felony and get it reduced to a misdemeanor allowing me to retain my 16 year military career. Desperately needed help and he answered, even though the case was in Riverside County. Thanks Mike!

Thank You MIke!!!

Before hiring Mr. Fremont, I spoke with several top DUI attorney's, most of them were very expensive, some did not make me feel that they would handle my case personally. Mr. Fremont and his staff always kept me in the loop, answered all my questions and were available every time I reached out to the...m through out the 6 month process. I am driving now with no restriction after being found not guilty of the DUI charges.

Must Hire!!

I highly recommend Michael Fremont. He has covered all my DUI's and he was great. On my first case I was looking at a 9 month alcohol program due to my B.A.C., but Fremont was able to work a deal and I only did 3 months in the alcohol program. 2 years later, I got another DUI. I called Fremont and he... took action quickly. Once again, due to my B.A.C. I was was looking at 1 month in jail, but Fremont was able to get me 6 days and I did my time on the weekends! I was able to go to work during the week and on the weekend I would turn myself in. Excellent deal! 2 years later (yes, I know, I have a problem with drinking and driving!) I got caught speeding 94 MPH on a highway. It was almost midnight and I only had a restricted Driver License. I refused to blow in the breathalyzer. The CHP took me to a lab in Oceanside and they told me if I refused they were going to forcefully strap me down to a chair and they were going to withdraw blood out of me. At that point I did not want another charge on top of me, so I let them take blood out of me. After getting out of the tank I contacted Fremont. Once again, he was on top of it fast. After he reviewed the police report, surveillance cop dash video, the B.A.C. test, and a lot of other things, I was finally ready for my hearing. Mr. Fremont SAVED my life. He saved my future because he was able to get me a Wet and Reckless instead of a 3rd DUI. The CHP screwed up by taking me to the lab in Oceanside and Mr. Fremont noticed that right away. I am NOT doing 180 days in jail! He saved me $1,500 in fines. He was phenomenal on my 3rd case. Another great news from this case is that I do not have to redo my alcohol classes. Mr. Fremont and the Judge worked a deal and they agreed to run the alcohol program concurrent from the previous DUI which I will be done in couple months. Fremont does an excellent job! He will review your case very carefully and that is great about him. He is very affordable! Do not hesitate to hire him for a DUI case. He dedicates his job to DUI's so that should say it all. He is an all around good humanitarian. A message to Fremont: Thank you so much for all your help! This will be the last time I will be in contact with you regarding any further DUI. I am no longer behind the wheel while intoxicated. -HC Escobedo.

"Wow he's good"

My son was just short of his twenty first birthday when he was arrested for felony D.U.I. with injuries. Bail was set at $100,000. Michael Freemont was highly recommended from one of our friends. We called Michael and met with him within a couple of hours of the initial call. He reviewed the case an...d came up with a “plan of action”. It was so nice to meet with him he has such a casual way about him; it’s like talking with a friend. That meeting took much of the weight off of our shoulders. My wife and I decided to let our son stay in jail until his arraignment. At the arraignment we saw a different Michael go into action. Casual Michael became “Michael Freemont Attorney At Law” it was like watching a T.V. show. While Michael was arguing the case, two people that were in the courtroom looked at my wife and I, one said “wow he’s good” the other said “nice lawyer”. Michael was able to get the felony injury dropped and got my son released without bail. My son wanted to fight this to the end so he could keep his good paying job. We couldn’t get the deal we were looking for in court so we decided on a jury trial. Michael continued to negotiate with the D.A. The day before the trial was to start the D.A. offered to drop the charges to reckless driving. Although I think we would have a good chance with a jury it wasn’t worth the risk and the money. I am extremely impressed with Michael’s skills he was able to get the charges of a felony D.U.I. with injuries down to a reckless driving. I couldn’t agree more with some of the other reviews, he is tenacious and is usually thinking so far ahead of you it’s hard to keep up. The court portion of the case is over. Now we will be going to try to get the administrative side (D.M.V.) overturned.
