Grateful for dismissal after hiring Michael Pham

I got arrested unjustly for a prostitution case at a video store. At a video aisle a heavy set man approached me and was harassing me in spanish. I dont know much spanish and was having a hard time hearing and understanding the guy. To sum it up the person was an undercover police officer and accused... me of prostitution. I was humiliated and had to sleep in the county jail. After I bonded out of jail, I interviewed a couple of lawyers. I later interviewed Michael Pham and found out pretty much about the law on prostitution and the legal proceedings. I was confident I made the right decision to hire Mr. Pham. When we went to court, Michael Pham requested for the police report and audio recording of the undercover investigation. The voice on the recording was mostly the police officer doing all of the talking. I couldnt believe that the prosecutor still wouldnt dismiss my case. Michael Pham said lets set the case for trial and let the whole truth come out and I agreed. On the morning of trial day, the prosecutor DISMISSED my case. I am very thankful and grateful to have Michael Pham as my lawyer.

A lawyer who you can count on!!!!

I hired Mr. Michael Pham on a DWLI case and when we went to court on the 1st appearance, my case was dismissed.. My drivers license had been suspended for sometime and when I got pulled over for speeding, I got arrested on a Driving while license Invalid case. I couldnt believe that driving on a inva...lid license is a criminal case. When i went to Mr. Pham's office, he explained to me what I needed to do get the status of my drivers license current. I was really shocked when I learned that someone could be penalized with a fine and even jail time. Mr. Pham also extended my upcoming court so that I wouldnt have to miss work and gave me some time to correct the matter and when we went to court, Mr. Pham said that my license was clear and that the prosecutor would dismiss my case. Michael Pham really helped me out and I am thankful for his legal help. I want to recommend him if you need an honest lawyer that will take care of you.

Excellent Lawyer, Outstanding Result

I hired Michael Pham on a DWI 2nd and he got my case DISMISSED, even with a blood test of .24. A friend who had a marijuana case dismissed recommended that I use his lawyer Michael Pham. I work late hours and Mr. Pham accomodated me for an evening appointment. In the interview I gave all of the facts... that lead to my arrest. Mr. Pham explained all of the law to me and what the consequences were, he also stated that because this is my 2nd DWI, we really should go to trial because if I was to get a 3rd DWI, it would be a felony from 2-10 years. After learning how unreliable the sobriety tests are in measuring whether someone is intoxicated while driving and the issues of a DWI blood draw, I felt Michael Pham had the experience and knowledge to help me out. When my lab result came back at .24 blood alcohol content (3 times the legal limit), I felt that there was just no way to win the case. Mr. Pham showed me there were issues with the blood testing and said we should go to trial. I felt that Mr. Pham had my best interests and I trusted his advice. On the morning of my trial date, I was very anxious and nvervous. Later when the prosecutor dismissed my case I just couldnt believe it. Michael Pham really helped me out of this predicament and I would absolutely recommend him for any criminal case.
