Backpage Lawyer

It was my first POM case when I hired Pham to represent me in court. Man did I mess up. He was always late, at least 2 hours after name call and one time he didn't show up at all. I called 3 hours into court and he said "Oh sorry I had a family emergency, tell the clerk to reschedule". I've known peo...ple with public defenders get better deals than I did with him. I honestly believe some of these good reviews on here are written by him. At the end of it all I did two weeks in jail for not even a gram of Marijuana. This dude makes my cousin Vinny look like Johnnie Cochran.

Saved My Job and Cleared My Name

I got charged with a DWI after I had gotten into an accident. I was recovering from knee surgery and taking pain pills. The police officer refused to listen to my medical history and arrested me after I didn't perform the sobriety tests. Michael Pham fought hard for me in a jury trial and I got a NO...T GUILTY verdict.

Simply The Best DWI lawyer

Mr. Michael Pham is the best lawyer that I could have hired for my DWI case. He was always very professional and authoritative about the law. All of the information that I received about the process, law, and dedication to my case was accurate. From the first meeting I felt Michael being sincerely... involved with my case and willing to commit the extra mile to get the best desired outcome. Anybody needing a DWI lawyer should call Michael Pham, you will be happy.

DWI dismissal, Results Delivered as Explained and Expected

I was referred to Mr. Pham to handle a DWI charge I got for speeding and weaving inside my lane. I blew a .13 alcohol on the breathalyzer machine. My case was finally dismissed because the officer didn't have probable cause to arrest me. What makes Mr. Pham an amazing lawyer is because he told me... exactly how he was going to handle the case, saved my drivers license, and delivered a dismissal. He will always return your phone calls and you can see him for an appointment after work hours which made is convenient for my work schedule. I would highly recommend.

Straight Talk & Delivered Dismissal

I hired Michael Pham for an Assault Family Member case were I was accused of punching an ex girlfriend in the face while driving home from a party. Michael said it was very important to subpoena the 911 call. It took about 4 months to get the 911 call, but the wait was well worth it as showed how... intoxicated my ex was on alcohol and Xanax. I told Michael that I was defending myself and never hit her. The prosecutor offered me 1 year probation deferred. I learned that after completing the probation the record would still follow me the rest of my life. I said hell no and let's go to trial. Michael said that there's no way a jury would find me guilty and that the prosecutor should dismiss the case. We set the case for trial. On the morning of trial the prosecutor even offered me to take an anger management class that is 4 1/2 months long and then dismiss my case. Michael said that he was confident that I would win my case. I believed in his aggressive legal passion in defending me and said no plea and let's go to trial. The prosecutor later dismissed the case knowing that we were not going to back down from the trial. I learned that the prosecutor was only bluffing. The lesson I learned is to hire a lawyer that is willing to fight for you and go to a jury trial and won't back down. For those reasons, I would recommend Michael Pham.
