Stephanie worked hard to dig into the case details and was being very thoughtful and responsive all the time, even during the free consultation session! I asked Stephanie to represent me when my previous lawyer lost my trust over time by laying back and being unsupportive and unresponsive. After I switched to Stephanie, the quality of service she provided is such a surprise. Now I wish I would reach out to Stephanie in the first place!

She has the respect from the judge, the courts, and everyone she comes in contact with. To include knowing all about the military and helping veterans goes way beyond my expectations.

Update June 25, 2026 at 11:33 am: It has been alleged that mental health diversion was not an…read moreavailable option at the time of my plea. I entered my plea in September 2018 and was sentenced January 2019. Mental health diversion was signed into law in July 2018. Here is my source: https://capcentral.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Judge-Couzens-Mental-Health-Diversion-MAY-2024.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com Make no mistake about it: Patrick Valencia deserves to be disbarred. He would be performing a kindness for the local community by retiring. I retained Patrick Valencia in April 2018 to represent me in a criminal case. I had been accused of a crime by someone who raped me. I let Patrick Valencia know there was a strong mental health component to my case. I was unaware at the time that Santa Clara County had a mental health court, so when he claimed the best outcome was for me to plead to a felony, being inexperienced with the system I believed him and served three years' probation. The felony plea contributed in large part to my expulsion from University. Years later I was arrested for the same conduct concerning the same rapist and this time was represented by the Public Defender's Office at no charge to me. I received a much better outcome without having to spend $7500 on a retainer. I was granted mental health diversion and my charge was dismissed. I complained to the State Bar and Patrick Valencia, even after being notified I am aware of his misconduct, refuses to so much extend the courtesy of a refund even though he did NOTHING for me besides ruining my life. Not to mention, from serving three years' probation and being expelled from University I suffered massive financial losses. Thankfully a new law was passed, vacatur, where survivors of sexual violence can petition to have their rap sheet erased. But even so, nothing will repair the lost time and opportunities I suffered because of this shameful, incompetent rape apologist. Did I mention he screamed at me outside of the courtroom asking if I was a nasty woman? That's how he treats his clients. Steer clear from this firm. I notice I am not the only former client he has mistreated. I encourage all of this scoundrel's victims to report him to the State Bar.

Dmitry is awesome. I kind of think I should just leave it there, but I know, I should elaborate…read more.. My girlfriend has had to deal with a pesky ex who keeps trying to file bogus protective orders. Right away Dmitry understood the case. He listened to my girlfriend, did the research on all the prior harassing court behavior by the ex, and just got it. We didn't have to waste time walking him through the story. However, what was most impressive about Dmitry was how prepared and knowledgable he was about the Santa Clara courts. He correctly predicted the behavior and moves of the overly litigious ex, and was able to aptly and professionally steer the entire proceedings. In the courtroom, Dmitry's skills were on full display. He might've made 15 objections, and 14 of them were sustained. Conversely, the opposing counsel might've might 20 objections and 17 were overruled; Dmitry was simply head-and-shoulders more skilled in the courtroom than the opposing counsel. At one point, the judge got so frustrated with the opposing counsel that he began asking for Dmitry's input on questions he was trying to ask the opposing counsel; clearly the judge respected him. For prep, he was also great. My girlfriend can get a little...let's say "disorganized" when being questioned, and can easily stray off topic. Dmitry did a wonderful job prepping them to take the stand and giving them a sense for what questions would and wouldn't get asked. In every facet, we both loved working with Dmitry. He was friendly, but serious and professional. We're fully expecting the ex to file more bogus claims, and we would absolutely return to Dmitry to squash those as well. He's even mindful of the costs involved, and doesn't waste time or try running the clock up to bill more. Again, every facet of working with him was professional.

Dmitry provided incredible support and guidance during an especially stressful time. My initial…read moreconsultation with him was highly impressive. He had thoroughly studied my case beforehand, understood every detail, and came prepared with a complete understanding of the situation. He explained the legal process clearly and in detail and was candid and honest throughout our discussions. He never made false promises or guaranteed outcomes, which particularly stood out to me as I transitioned from my previous counsel. His professionalism and transparency immediately earned my trust, and that trust ultimately paid off. The qualities that stand out most are his professionalism, dedication, compassion, hard work, and commitment to his clients. Communication, which is such a critical aspect of legal representation, was always clear, prompt, and effective. He is a strong and supportive attorney who stands by his clients throughout the entire legal process, working tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. Most importantly, Dmitry helped restore my peace of mind during a very challenging period. While I hope to stay away from legal issues in the future, I would not hesitate to seek his assistance again if needed. If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, strategic, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about his clients, look no further. Dmitry is the person you want on your side. Honestly, a 5-star rating feels far too inadequate to reflect the level of service and dedication Dmitry provided. Thanks to his diligence and advocacy, my case was resolved favorably, and I could not be more grateful for the outcome.

That level of honesty and willingness to help without expecting anything in return is rare. Wendy's professionalism and kindness really stood out.
