Wallin and Klarich Took My Side When All Odds Were Against Me

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I was arrested for domestic violence. I felt that everyone was against me including the Police and the Prosecutors. They all wanted to send me to jail without even hearing my side of the story. This is all before I retained Wallin & Klarich to represent me. My attorney was the only person that ever listened to me. We took the matter to trial where my attorney vigorously cross-examined witnesses and finally presented my side of the story. They jury took only one hour to return a unanimous verdict of Not Guilty. I would like to thank Wallin & Klarich for an outstanding effort.”

Wallin and Klarich Helped Me Become a US Citizen Because Violence Charges Were Dropped

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I was facing charges of domestic violence. A conviction for domestic violence would ruin my chances of becoming a United States Citizen. I contacted the law offices of Wallin & Klarich and they quickly contacted the prosecutor’s office. Wallin & Klarich arranged a pre-filing hearing with the prosecutor’s office so we could resolve this without going to court. A hearing was set and Wallin & Klarich convinced the prosecutor not to file any charges against me in exchange for completing a short counseling program. Once I complete the program, the case will be dismissed and I will not have a domestic violence conviction on my record. Now, I can become a United States Citizen thanks to Wallin & Klarich.”

Domestic Violence Sentence Dramatically Reduced

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

“I was accused of felony domestic violence with injury and faced up to three years in state prison. The attorneys of Wallin & Klarich moved aggressively to present my case in the best light to the court and negotiate with the District Attorney. In the end my felony domestic violence charge was reduced to a misdemeanor. The punishment I received was a domestic violence class and 40 hours of community service. A far cry from the punishment I initially faced! In addition, I was soon reunited with my wife and children. Without the expert advice and guidance of Wallin & Klarich I could have lost my job, my home and my family. I am grateful to Wallin & Klarich for their help.”

Man Found Not Guilty Despite Past Domestic Violence Record

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

I had a horrible history of domestic violence. When I was young, I was quick to get angry and was unable to control myself. I was convicted of Felony domestic violence 7 years ago. I served a year in jail and did my anger management counseling for 18 months. I really learned to manage my temper and to take steps to prevent any further violence. Unfortunately, my ex-wife knew about my past and had taunted me over the years that all it would take is a phone call, and that nobody would believe a word of a former felon. Well, that nightmare came true. She made good on her threats and called the police and lied to them about being beaten to punish me for leaving her for another women. When we went to court, no one believed me. No one except my attorney. He advised me that I was facing a year in jail. We took the matter to trail, where the prosecutor attempted to use my prior conviction from 7 years ago to prove that I was guilty of the crime charged today. My attorney was able to bring out the true story and more importantly, the motives of my ex-wife for lying to he police and convincing my own kids to lie against me. The jury didn’t buy any of it. They voted 12-0 in favor of finding me not guilty. I thank my attorney for all his efforts and for allowing me to have my life back.

Mother Proud of Outcome of Her Son's Domestic Violence Case

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

I am writing to let you know how impressed I was with the employees of Wallin & Klarich. From my initial phone call to your law firm, throughout both the civil and criminal trials, and a follow-up call to see how my son was doing after the verdict, your employees remained consistent in her ability to provide outstanding client support. Wallin & Klarich Attorneys represented your firm with a professional and caring attitude. The attorney was always accessible, responding promptly to all of my questions and concerns, or getting back to me when they needed to get an answer.

As a parent going through such an emotional turmoil with my son, I cant tell you how comforting it was to have a Wallin & Klarich staff member on the other end of the phone. At a time when both my son and I were confused and under great stress she was always extremely helpful. She kept us going and thinking positively. She always reassured me that no matter what the outcome your firm was on our side and was there for us. Without her I would have been lost.

I have been a manger and worked in the human resources department for over thirty years at several different companies, including law firms. I have had an opportunity to hire and work with hundreds of employees. I wanted you to know that Wallin & Klarich staff members stood out to me. She is intelligent, cooperative, professional and courteous. Her public relations skills are unsurpassed and she has a unique calming ability and the ability to offer unwavering support during very trying and stressful times. Thank you for all your help.

Felony Domestic Violence Case Dismissed

August 9, 2013  | Paul Wallin

I would highly recommend Matt Wallin to anyone in need of a good criminal defense in Newport Beach. Along with his partners and investigators at the firm Wallin & KlarichMatt Wallin was able to get my felony case dismissed prior to any charges being filed.This was particularly impressive given the amount of detail and complicated nature of the case Matt had to deal with. I faced the possibility of having 3 felony charges tried against me, and the real possibility spending significant time in Orange County jail or California state prison. I am very pleased I hired Matt who was able to present my case to the DA and get the case rejected in the interest of justice before I ended up with anything on my record!

Positive Outcome in Concealed Weapons Case

August 8, 2013  | Paul Wallin

Last year on Mother’s day I was arrested and subsequently charged with a violation of Penal Code 12020(a), possession of a weapon which was a collapsible baton. I turned to the Law Offices of Wallin & Klarich.

I met with the attorney, and hired Wallin & Klarich because they appeared to be my best option. I was not disappointed. My Wallin & Klarich attorney was incredibly experienced and outstandingly knowledgeable pertaining to cases related to concealed weapons charges; he answered all my questions. I felt that I should not settle for the offer that the District attorney offered me, so I went to trial.

My attorney did an excellent job in presenting the case and cross examining the officer. He knew the case and was able to argue to the jury who acquitted me. Getting a Not Guilty verdict was great news.

If in the future I require the services of an attorney I will go back to Wallin & Klarich. I would recommend them to any of my friends and family who find themselves in need of an attorney.
