John David Underwood

I highly recommend Underwood Law Firm. Their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine support made a significant difference during one of the most stressful times in my life. John and his staff first assisted me with my DUI case, working diligently to help reduce my sentence. They were thorough, honest, and strategic, always making sure I understood my options and felt supported throughout the process. What truly sets this firm apart, however, is how they continued to advocate for me beyond the initial case. While I was enrolled in a nursing program and already two years into my studies, we received a new dean who informed me that there was a possibility I could be dropped from the program due to my prior DUI and hit-and-run charges. I was devastated and afraid that years of hard work would be lost. John and his team acted quickly to help me expunge my record so I could remain compliant and continue in my nursing program.

I contacted Mr. Underwood early one Saturday morning. He responded right away! He was knowledgeable, caring, and eased my fear of the unknown. After 3 years, Mr. Underwood WON my case and my charges of DUI were dismissed! I never had to attend court and he always kept me informed of any new information. His calm demeanor and determination to WIN this case for me kept me wanting to fight and win as well. I highly recommend Mr. Underwood to anyone facing a legal battle - especially one such as DUI/Reckless Driving.

David was very helpful in getting the best deal to have it completely dismissed. He was reassuring thru out the entire process. He explained conditions well. I highly recommend David and you will have one of the most honest and caring Attorney to handle your case. Thank you Underwood Law Firm.

John responded to my legal concern almost immediately after I contacted his office. He was so helpful and informative. He gave me great peace of mind during a very stressful time. I would DEFINITELY recommend him!

I was pulled over on the grapevine for having my headlights off, during which I learned my license was suspended due to an old DUI with unfulfilled obligations. The officer issued me a Notice to Appear for the county the DUI was in, as well as new charges in Kern County for the headlight infraction + driving on a suspended license. To say I was stressed and overwhelmed is a massive understatement. I retained Underwood Law Firm for the Kern case, and John immediately helped calm me down as he walked me through the process, illustrating best/worst case scenarios. Long story short: He was able to get the ENTIRE CASE DISMISSED. I sobbed--I had hoped for a reduction in charges at best. P.S. I lost a close relative in the midst of everything, and let John know I'd be unavail for a few days while making arrangements. I got home to find a sympathy card in my mailbox with a handwritten note inside, from Underwood Law Firm. Just truly wonderful people on top of being great at what they do.

When my son was arrested, John provided great service and compassion during a very difficult time. Being from out of town, I also appreciated his local knowledge and insight which help us to navigate though an unfamiliar and complicated situation. Best of all, he was able to get my son’s charges dropped.

I would like to recommend Underwood Law Firm. They help me three times. I did not have to showed up for court, he did it all for me. Do not be afraid to contact Underwood Law Firm. Thank you Mr. Underwood.

Mr. Underwood did a great job of assisting me with my legal matter. He was very patient as I experienced a terrible situation in my life. He was very organized and knowledgeable. I always made time to answer my multiple questions. I would use Mr. Underwood again if I had the need and would definitely recommend to friends and family as well.
