California Federal Criminal Defense Attorney
For twenty-five years, I've been a California criminal defense attorney, representing clients in federal courts across the state. Of course, I've also traveled to various states to handle other federal matters, but since my main hub office here in Encino covers California very well, I've appeared all over California.
I've been in Los Angeles – obviously in the Central District at the Roy Ball Building and 111 North Hill – now that's been moved to First Street in a brand new beautiful Downtown Los Angeles Federal Courthouse and handled a number of matters there since its inception.
Also, I've obviously been near the border between Mexico and El Centro, handling a lot of narcotics cases. There are a lot of drugs moving through the California/Mexico border. I've handled many cases over there to great success, and I've really enjoyed that. I've also handled matters in Orange County.
There's a beautiful Ronald Regan Courthouse out there – a beautiful courthouse – and I enjoy practicing federal criminal defense in that California Orange County courthouse. I've been to Fresno and handled cases in that jurisdiction as well. San Diego is another very popular California courthouse that I've appeared in.
So, the list goes on and on. There's a lot of federal action in the state of California. So, suppose you have a matter pending in one of the California federal courts, and you are charged with a crime. In that case, obviously, you're going to want to get a criminal defense attorney who is familiar with how to deal with these federal cases in California and is very familiar with the federal sentencing guidelines.
Learn That The Federal Sentencing Guidelines Are Universal Across California
When it comes to sentencing in a federal case in California or any state in the nation, the federal sentencing guidelines are universal. Meaning, those are used across the country by judges. That's a key thing to know because you need to know the guidelines, know how they work, know what your criminal history is, know what your charges are, and know what the base offense level is for the crime they are trying to get you for, then you will have an idea of where you fall in the big scheme as far as California federal sentencing goes.
So, when it comes to federal sentencing and litigating and investigating crimes in California, you should know that I would probably put California in the middle of the road as far as toughness as I've traveled across the country.
Of course, it really depends on what Judge you are in front of. Some of these judges are very tough and conservative and depending on what the crime is, they're going to deal with the person according. There are other judges who are very reasonable, easy to deal with, and have a good attitude in California as far as what the sentencing should be.
Another interesting thing is that I've seen many California federal criminal Judges travel to different states to do sentencing and handle cases in various states. I'm sure we also have visiting Judges from other states coming to California and dealing with those federal courts as well.

I have successfully handled many cases in the Central District Federal Courts. My credentials are among the top federal criminal defense attorneys.
