What can i say about my case, to start off i was facing 2 duis back to back and i had talked to a lot of attorneys and none of them talked to me with confidence like fremont did. We met at a rubios and we went over my charges and what happened as a i remembered . I had to leave for work out of town ...for a fee months so he was able to start working on the case . We jas always in contact with me always sending me texts and updates about the case as well as phone calls and what was going on. First case came by and he got all my charges dismissed this would of been my 3rd dui, and he got all of the charges dropped. I did have to do SCRAM but thats cause the judge had ordered it but turned out it wasn't even necessary . Then i was waiting for the second case and i kept up with payments and he kept up with handling the legal stuff. I knew the other case wasnt going to end up in a dismissal of charges since i made super difficult but he did get my charges lowered and i think he did an excellent job at everything i was never stressing or anything i knew he had it under control . Overall my experience was great he did above and beyond my expectations and did everything in his power to male my life better other wise i would be in prison for about 18 months or so. So over it was great he does deserve this 5 star rating and more !

Based on (1) my and my son’s experience with Michael Freemont, through numerous consultations and trial, and (2) my background as a lawyer, I would highly recommend Michael to handle any DUI or DWI case. He is extremely knowledgeable about the law in this area and the processes, procedures, proceedi...ngs and evidentiary matters relating thereto, both at the court and department of motor vehicles levels. He always has his client’s best interests in mind and is an extremely effective and successful advocate and communicator of and for those interests. He has very good relationships with judges and prosecutors, but is not hesitant to dispute or argue a position, even at the risk of his personal, but not his client’s, best interests. He has the unique ability develop an appropriate strategy for furthering his client’s best interests and to also think quick and effective on his feet as matters, situations and conditions arise and occur. He is also highly ethical and honest in his advice and direction to his clients and in his dealings with other lawyers and judges. He is an excellent and outstanding lawyer.

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.

Mr. Fremont helped me with two cases and the outcomes would not have been what they were if it weren't for him! First case was for a DUI and he got it down to a wet reckless (or something less), which was GREAT. No extra fines, didn't have to do a school or community service, didn't have to attend co...urt at all. A year later he helped me with a case that was a real crappy situation- I was arrested for resisting arrest with battery on a police officer. It was multiple charges with the possibility of fines/jail time/permanent record/etc. I originally used a public defender who could care less about my case so I spent the money (worth every penny!) for Fremont again. After reaching out to him on a weekend night, he immediately responded, asking questions about the situation and whatever information I had for him to review. The next day he already had a game plan and when the court date came time... well, whatever tactics he used worked because the arrest was ruled unlawful (which the public defender wasn't even close to getting for me) and the other charge (battery on police officer) he got down to an "infraction for disturbing the peace". And again, no extra fines, never needed to show my (shamed) face in court, nothing more to deal with. Hopefully I won't need to use him for anything like this again but if I do, I will feel totally confident that he will get the best possible outcome for me! He's quick and to the point, easy to talk to and available to your (sometimes annoying or anxious) needs, knows the law inside and out and makes you feel much safer (and better) about whatever stupid situation you got yourself into! Go with Fremont and you'll sleep better at night :)

I was facing a felony 5th dui. The DA initially wanted a prison term. Through discovery before our preliminary hearing Michael was able to uncover weaknesses in the case and exposed them pretrial to get the deal is was shooting for. I personally feel your always better off hiring a private attorney o...ver a public defender. If your facing a dui charge Mr Fremont is the one to call. He will most likely be able to resolve your case before it ever gets to trial. I hired him because of his Avvo results and am extremely happy I did. All the lawyers in the courthouse knew him and he seemed to be a mentor to a lot if them. Some other lawyers I spoke to on Avvo were rude, unprofessional and used scare tactics. Mr. Fremont did not and told me upfront if what I wanted was realistic and what to do prior to court dates. He was reasonably priced and always returned emails promptly. He isn't too detailed, but you just have to trust he knows what to do. I give him 5 stars. Call Mr. Fremont if your in need of a knowledgeable attorney that appears to be known by DA s for his determination and results driven methods.
