With over 27 years of experience defending animal cruelty cases under California Penal Code 597, I bring a wealth of expertise to the table. It's crucial to understand that these cases are taken very seriously. They are assigned a special prosecutor, and the District Attorney's office and the City Attorney's office treat them with the utmost importance.
If you or a loved one is charged with animal cruelty in Los Angeles, Van Nuys, or San Fernando courthouse, you're listening to someone who has handled these cases for many years — I know what it takes to mitigate these cases, and I know what it takes to win these cases. Sometimes, the prosecutors and police have done their job, and they've got the evidence. Other times, they haven't. But regardless, the potential consequences of these charges are severe and can significantly impact your life.
So, the first thing we need to do is sit down and talk about what evidence they might have against you if you're charged with animal cruelty in the San Fernando Valley. My office has been here for 30 years. My father has had a presence here since the 1970s.
