Nan Bucknell is an outstanding DUI attorney. She is professional, knowledgeable, and very clear…read moreabout what to expect throughout the process. From the start, she was organized, responsive, and easy to communicate with. What really stands out is how confident and prepared she is. You can tell she has extensive experience in DUI law and takes her work seriously. She handles everything with professionalism and focus, which makes a stressful situation feel much more manageable. If you're looking for someone who is skilled, straightforward, and dependable, I highly recommend Nan Bucknell.

DO NOT HIRE NAN BUCKNELL. RACIST, highly unprofessional and discriminatory…read more I paid Nan Bucknell $12,000, and it was a terrible experience. I eventually lost all trust, terminated her services, and hired a competent attorney to fix the situation. 1. Racist & Discriminatory Behavior: As an Asian immigrant, I was subjected to deeply offensive remarks. She openly referred to Black and Mexican immigrants as "low-quality people." Furthermore, during our case discussions, she frequently and condescendingly criticized my English grammar instead of focusing on my defense. I hired a lawyer, not an arrogant tutor. 2. Gross Incompetence & Blaming the Client: She failed to advise me on critical steps regarding my immigration status. I proactively introduced her to my immigration attorney via email, and she even replied to it. Yet, she completely failed to follow through or state what documentation was necessary. This resulted in missing materials at my first court appearance, delaying the entire case and severely threatening my H1B application timeline. To make matters worse, she then falsely blamed me, claiming she had told me when she never did. 3. Aggressive Communication & Public Embarrassment: Her tone in many of our interactions and emails was aggressive, rude, and dismissive. For example, inside the courtroom, she publicly raised her voice and aggressively repeated "What is your current address?" three times in a row without giving me a split second to answer. It was incredibly combative and deeply embarrassing in front of the court. 4. Unhelpful & Slow to Respond: It frequently took 2-3 days to get an email reply, if at all. She refused to provide any proactive support or guidance on gathering necessary third-party evidence, leaving me to handle it alone. My replacement lawyer later handled this easily. She was only prompt when collecting my money. Save your money and your sanity--find an attorney who respects clients and knows how to do their job.

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.
