Kareem S. Aref

I hired Kareem to help me with an expungement of a misdemeanor nearly 10 years ago. I am applying for grad school and wanted to take care of this right away. He found an error that had been made and was quick to get it taken care of. He was very easy to work with and incredibly helpful. His compassion and professionalism are well above the best. He gave me a clear explanation of what needed to be done, how long it would take and what I should expect. I absolutely cannot say enough about how well he handled my case. Thanks to his work and attention to my case, he was able to get this case closed and cleared much faster than expected, at a great price and I can now move forward with my life and grad school. Thank you so much Kareem for helping me out. I am forever grateful!

Great communicator and listener. Knows how to deliver results. I'd 100% use him again if the need arises.

Exceptional criminal defense attorney and human being. Kareem under promises and over delivers. He really came through for me.

In my experience, Melissa Duchene is very good at explaining the process, risks and how the case is likely to play out. I could tell the board investigator respects her and likes working with her. And I always felt Melissa genuinely cares about me and my family and was thinking about our best interests. She did a great getting the investigation closed without any kind of discipline. I can highly recommend her for any kind of professional license matter.

Our son got charged in an unfair legal matter that was blown way out of proportion. We were fortunate to have Mr Aref handling the case. He explained everything very clearly in language we all could understand. And he was great at helping us see the forest through the trees and find our way out of the mess. We were all very impressed with Kareem's background and how the DA worked with him. In the end he was able to get the case dismissed. From our experience, we found Kareem to be a highly skilled criminal defense attorney that made us feel very well protected in the system. Hire him, you'll be in very capable hands!

I've had the pleasure of working with Kareem over the last few years. He's definitely one of the best attorneys I've ever worked with. I recommend him without reservation to any family or friends needing an excellent criminal defense attorney. Keep up the great work!

I was arrested for a DUI in Los Angeles and a friend referred me to Kareem Aref. During my initial consultation he took the time to methodically review what happened and review many of the ways he could resolve the charge. He was great at listening and easing my stress. I am a CPA and was very worried that this could affect my license. He's an intelligent, hard working lawyer you’ll be happy to have on your side.
