Personal Introduction

Having been arrested, facing a criminal case, and the possibility of the loss of your freedom, it is extremely important that you seek the help of a qualified Criminal Defense Lawyer. As you may face this experience, allow me to further introduce my law office, and to offer the legal assistance and support of a Criminal Defense Lawyer who understands the law and who will make your uncertain future his priority. My name is Kevin Moghtanei, and I am the Attorney and Owner of DCD LAW, Inc. I am committed to serving you and your loved ones throughout this case. Whether you have been charged with a Misdemeanor or Felony, it is extremely important to have your own Criminal Defense Lawyer as early as possible after your arrest. And it is equally important when you are being investigated for a crime, without being arrested. Through early intervention, I have been successfully able to obtain many dismissals or greatly reduced charges throughout my cases. I realize that you are probably both scared and confused about not only the charges against you, but also the legal system as a whole. My law office is very familiar and comfortable with the criminal justice system in Los Angeles County, as I have been practicing in the criminal courts for over 10 years. I have successfully defended over 1,100 clients throughout my career. I have an excellent reputation and working relationship with the courts and prosecutors, and I strive to offer you the very best legal representation possible. I help many of my clients get their charges REDUCED or DISMISSED ENTIRELY. I handle all of my cases personally, and I am always easily accessible to my clients. No one else will be appearing in your court case except me. After meeting with me, you will see that my commitment to your specific case is unmatched. I will be at your side the whole way. Fighting for YOU.
