Attorney's Experience

Choosing an Experienced Criminal Defense Lawyer

Chances are if you are facing any type of criminal charge - misdemeanor or felony - you are also searching for an attorney to defend you. Your search, and ultimately your choice of DUI and Criminal Defense Attorney, should be done carefully and with much consideration as to the impact it will have on your case. We choose professionals to help with many aspects of our lives, for example doctors for our health and accountants for our finances. The questions we ask these professionals help us figure out if their experience and knowledge can meet our needs.

When your freedom, good record, and reputation are on the line, the level of experience your attorney has is particularly important. The DUI and Criminal Defense Attorneys at Hoffman & Associates have over 30 years of experience in courtrooms throughout California. Our record of success speaks to just how valuable this experience is to our clients.

Why More Than 30 Years of Experience Counts in and Out of the Courtroom

Our attorneys use their extensive experience in ways that benefit you no matter where you are in the justice process or what types of charges you are facing. We know how to negotiate in the early stages of your defense, and also what defenses to use specifically for your case. Years of experience give our attorneys the luxury of knowing how to handle problems that may arise, and to then reach an appropriate solution in substantially less time than it would take a less experienced attorney. Our knowledgeable DUI and Criminal Defense Attorneys don't have to reinvent the wheel for each case, which ultimately results in a lower overall cost to our clients.

The decades of experience we have in the courts, relationships with prosecutors, and familiarity with judges benefit our clients and the outcomes of their cases. There are over 30 different courts in Los Angeles, and hundreds of courts throughout California that each follow the same laws, but may differ tremendously in how they prosecute the wide range of offenses. Appreciating and understanding those differences is critical to protecting our client's freedom and good record. There is no substitute for years of courtroom experience. We are experienced with how the justice system works in courts throughout California and can put that knowledge to work for you immediately.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
I can't begin to thank Mr. Hoffman enough for his extensive efforts throughout the entire case. He went absolutely above and beyond throughout the entire process. From day one he was immediately actively pursuing ways to prevent my case from ever going to court and once that was no longer an option, actively began working on getting the case ultimately dismissed. His communication was consistent and reassuring, despite my frantic worries all the time... Micaiah Botts
★★★★★
My family and I simply owe our life and future to Ron Hoffman. If you are looking for a lawyer that goes above and beyond the call of duty you can't find a better lawyer than Ron. He took my case head on from the moment I called his office. I was involved in an accidental hit and run where I was unaware of the injury. Every step of the way, Ron guided me through an almost two year long investigation and court settlement process and was constantly by my side through out every crossroad... Bill Martin
★★★★★
Ron Hoffman and his staff were Fantastic when dealing with such a serious issue of DUI. When I first Called Ron I was very nervous and worried for my daughter and her freedom. She had a failure to appear on top of her DUI and I knew just how bad this could be. Ron was able to immediately put me at ease and gave me the confidence that there was hope and a light at the end of the tunnel. Ron was able to get the failure to appear dismissed and also no jail time for my daughter... Claude Brown

He treats each of his clients as his only client, and takes the time to develop detailed strategies and defenses for each individual case. I have never hesitated to refer Mr. Hoffman to anyone who has asked me for a good Criminal Defense attorney. He is a fantastic attorney!... Neeta P.
★★★★★
I had a DUI issue recently. I have never had a problem with the law as serious as this one. I did panic a bit after and knew I had to get a lawyer to help my future. I researched the Web and read the reviews for awesome DUI Lawyers. Hiring a lawyer can be intimidating. Ron's 30 years experience and step by step guidance helped me with my case. Jonie was amazing with keeping me calm. Ron Hoffman is a great lawyer and I would refer any friends or family to him... Manuel Gomez
★★★★★
Ron was so accommodating and professional. With a Firm like his you wouldn't expect him to be as accessible, but he immediately returned phone calls, was easy to communicate with and was very sympathetic to my situation. He went above and beyond and was able to get a better result than I'd hoped or expected. I highly recommend Ron Hoffman and his firm. He made a difficult and anxiety fueled process bearable and made me feel safe. He is a lovely man. One does not wish to need a criminal attorney, but if you do need one, Ron's the guy to call... Teri A.
★★★★★
Ron and his team were the perfect pairing for what I needed taken care of. Every step of the way he was extremely helpful and informative (not his first rodeo). His work ethic and attitude were exemplary and it showed with the results of using his services. I would recommend anyone I know to give Ron a call if they need help in his realm of expertise. Many thanks Ron and associates!... Donald N.

I didn't hire a lawyer for my first DUI... What a mistake! Ronald goes above and beyond with his art and knowledge of custom strategy according to your case. lawyer of the year (every year)... Adam R.
★★★★★
I hate lawyers. They are hard to get a hold of, greedy and unreliable. Ron is the opposite of all these things. He deserves 6 stars, and I very much recommend him. He helped me through my case with nothing but kindness, understanding, and knowledge and eventually got it dropped. Thanks for everything Ron!... Avi Z.
