What can I say? David Stein and his team are very competent and honest criminal defense attorneys. David helped me with a serious felony DUI case in Orange County court. Initially I worried my life was going to be destroyed. After several months of working on my case, he was able to get it lowered to a misdemeanor charge with no jail time. David was there for me at my lowest and you can tell he really cares about you. He never judged me and always made me feel like he had my back. He's also very good at explaining his strategy and the law so I understood what was happening. Thank you David. I really appreciate what you accomplished for me and my family!
