Not to get to in-depth but I was in a very bad place inside my soul, on the outside things appeared great but I was broken inside. I went to Michael because I had got into an issue with the law and long story short, he guided me thru not just the judicial part but he also made sure that I dealt with the root cause of my spiral... now I am happily married and thriving inside and out. Can't thank you guys enough for all you've done for me, I will always be indebted to you my friend!!!

He yells you not to worry, let's get your situation resolved, meet me at my office. 2. You go. He tells you how awesome he is. Shows you the plaques, tells you about his kids, the kids he coached and? How awesome he is, again. 3. You buy into the hype. Be prepared to talk about money then. Be prepared to go to court and your case is extended, extended again and? You guessed it, extended again. He then offers you limited if any information as he presents the D.A's plea bargain offer. 3A. You don't buy in. You ask around, look up other lawyers, reviews, do your homework and find out that Mike is nothing more than a hack. A fraud. Nice suit, office on the pier he inherited and an absolutely laughable success record. He'll extend your case, spend more time in the courtroom shooting the chit with the D.A, Bailiffs and Judges then when the money is gone? Plea deal. "Besr offer your gonna get" he says. Stay away. Dude is a self indulgent, condescending POS that will sell you, take your cash and plea you out. No real work done.

    Worked with David in the past and everything went relatively well. Contacted him again for a basic…read moretraffic ticket and I haven't heard back. I called his front desk seven or eight times over the span of three months and they just kept saying they would pass along the message. There is literally no reason why they didn't reach out to me, the last time I worked with David everything went fine in terms of our communication and that was also a basic traffic ticket so it wasn't complicated or anything like that. On the last call, I asked them if there was any reason why I wasn't hearing back from David, and they told me they don't know and that I should just leave a message again. There was no apology or urgency to the matter, and they didn't seem to care at all that they were not responding. They also didn't seem to care when I told them I may have to find another attorney since I keep not hearing back, so I imagine they won't care if you don't call them either... Edit: Wow quick response. I don't understand how you've been having crippling phone issues for months while still having business, and I also don't understand why your front desk wasn't able to just pass my cell phone number to you, which is what I provided. That is an unprofessional excuse. Also, you didn't find anyone by this name because I don't use my real name public on social media. That's pretty common.

It was especially critical because I was in the process of getting into a profession very sensitive to backgroound checks. Mr. Dastrup was understanding of the urgency and was very clear about his rationale. The case was dismissed within a week.

Don is great at what he does, having helped people I know to lessen their fines/penalties and keep their jobs. My wife started working for Don a couple years ago and is much happier in this firm. She feels like she's truly helping people, unlike at her previous position with a worker's comp firm that represented companies sued by employees and/or customers. Don's impact isn't limited to those I know personally. His social media pages are constantly updated with stories of happy clients and successful outcomes. Today, I visited his office in Torrance for the first time. It's located in the giant California Bank building on Hawthorne Boulevard. Xander and I had lunch with my wife there since he's currently on winter break. I was impressed by the building, having only seen it from the street before. The parking was plentiful, and easy to find. The office itself was very tastefully decorated, especially the conference room on the 5th floor with its nice views. Before leaving, we took a quick picture in the entry/waiting area. I can't recommend Don enough. He might not be the cheapest option out there, but he's certainly the best for all your criminal defense needs.

    I was involved in a very serious car accident shortly after moving to a new town where I had no…read morefamily nearby, no close friends in the area, and my entire support network was back home. Adding salt to the wound, I was also navigating a divorce shortly after the accident. No community. No safety net. Just my physically injured self heartbroken and navigating one of the darkest and most isolated periods of my life. Finding Eunice during that chapter was one of the best decisions I have ever made. For context, my case took nearly four years from start to finish. Four years! Through every deposition, every medical appointment, every moment of uncertainty and pain . Eunice and her team were in my corner without fail. My injuries were severe. I underwent multiple surgeries, including an implant, along with a long road of treatments and recovery. Not only did Eunice fight for my case, she made sure I had access to the best doctors in the industry for every single procedure. She didn't just manage my legal situation, she looked out for my whole well being, as humanly as possible. She made sure I was truly taken care of at a time when I had very few people in my life to lean on, and when I deeply resented what my injuries had taken from my daily life. What stood out over these four years was the integrity and ethics of her office. In an industry where that's not always a given, Eunice and her team operated with transparency, honesty, and a standard of professionalism that never wavered. Working alongside them for almost four years showed me exactly what "best in the industry" looks like. Not in theory. In practice. Every single day. Over the course of four years, I was physically broken, emotionally drained, and completely alone. Eunice and her team fought and stood up for me every single day. That's not something I could ever forget. That's not something every attorney will do. I really don't have enough words to express my gratitude toward Eunice and her team for looking after not just my case, but my health, my recovery, and my life during the hardest season I've ever faced. The case finally closed. Eunice and her team went the extra mile to negotiate the final outcome, and I walked away physically recovered and genuinely grateful. Grateful for my recovery, and even more grateful for her and her team who stood by me every step of the way. When everything in life seemed to be spinning out of control, much like the accident that started it all. Making that one good decision to trust Eunice and her team was the path back to a good and wonderful life.

    I'm incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received throughout my car accident case…read more The team at the Law Offices of Eunice S. Hahn communicated clearly, kept me informed every step of the way, and handled the entire process smoothly. Their support gave me tremendous peace of mind during an otherwise stressful time. Everyone was compassionate, professional, and genuinely committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. I was very pleased with the settlement and would highly recommend the Law Offices of Eunice S. Hahn to anyone seeking a trustworthy, caring, and dedicated legal team.
