Your Experienced Criminal Defense Attorneys - Handling All Misdemeanor and Felony Charges, Ranging From Los Angeles / San Diego DUI Offenses To State And Federal Drug Charges
If you are facing DUI or criminal charges, we can help ...
We will work with you whether you are facing an investigation, an arrest, or charges of any kind. We handle DUI charges, theft & fraud offenses, as well as charges involving identity theft, drug possession & sales, domestic violence, assault & battery, weapons charges, suspended license cases, juvenile matters as well as the full range of any probation violations.
At HOFFMAN & ASSOCIATES, we have extensive experience defending the rights of people arrested and accused of all types of criminal offenses and at every stage of the case, sometimes even before an arrest is made. From the time we are retained as your legal representative, we begin preparing for trial. Our firm has years of experience dealing with arraignments, discovery and preliminary hearings.
Our firm keeps abreast of current legal developments so that we can draft persuasive motions to suppress evidence and other necessary pre-trial motions. We are skilled negotiators who will plea-bargain if it is in your best interest and after we obtain your consent. But, we are always prepared to go to trial and vigorously defend you when that is in your best interest.
Frequently, with our early intervention, we can convince the prosecutor to not file charges or work out other creative solutions to traditional prosecution.
Clients always benefit from obtaining positive evidence showing that they are innocent, or lacked the intent to commit an offense. IT DOES MATTER!
Our lawyers regularly appear in all Courts throughout the Los Angeles and San Diego area, as well as Courts in the San Fernando Valley including Van Nuys, San Fernando, Glendale, Burbank, and Pasadena.
