We met Philip Schnayerson more than five years ago during a tumultuous time for our family. My husband and father of our children faced serious felony charges and Mr. Schnayerson orchestrated the best possible outcome that brought leniency from the judge at an extremely reasonable cost. Recently Phil's experience and influence was again paramount in having my husband's original count reduced to a misdeamenor and expunged. My husband is free of the stigma, able to move on with confidence and begin a new career. Honestly, Phil's commitment to my husband's case, to see the whole person, and not his

I was charged with a felony and two misdemeanors because I was driving intoxicated and while evading the police and to end in a crash, and my awesome attorney Mr. Philip A. Schnayerson saved me from being in prison for 6 months or being deported, and only being charged with the misdemeanors and 30 days of sheriffs work alternative program and a fine of $1,944. I very well recommend Mr. Philip as a great choice for your attorney. Thank you very much again Mr. Philip!

I am grateful that my family had found Mr. Garcia and his team to represent me I couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable and supportive group of attorneys and legal assistance. Mr. Garcia worked his magic and I received an incredible outcome despite my situation I highly recommend anyone that needs legal assistance to contact them.
