After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life.

Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes.

She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me.

Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life.

Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes.

She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me.

Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly.

I am eternally grateful that I found Ann Gottesman!  From the very beginning of my case, Ann really took control and straightened out what an awful mess I had with a previously inadequate law firm.  Despite the pandemic causing the case to be dragged on longer than expected, Ann stayed vigilant and always reassured me that she would take care of everything.  The constant, thorough communication really helped keep me as less stressed as possible.  Ann won my case without having to go to trial!!  After all that time and worry, she gave me the best news I could have possibly heard and I didn't even have to step a foot in court.  Ann's professional, calm demeanor and her  amazing litigation skills made her very valuable to have on my side and I sincerely appreciate all her help, Thanks again Ann!!

Understood my legal problem right away. Unfortunately, she could not take on my case because her case load was full. An attorney who doesn't take on too many clients is hard to find nowadays.

Ann represented my 80-year-old father in a DUI case. This was my family’s first experience with working with a lawyer and we really were sure what to expect. Ann was amazing. She walked us through every step of the process and was very patient with all of us, especially my father who because of his age and lack of technology skills was not the easiest client to work with during the Covid. Ann worked hard at finding the best solution and ultimately was able to get my father an extremely positive result that was beyond any of our hopes. Because of my Dad’s age, health, and his willingness to give up his driver’s license, she was able to get the judge to grant the first DUI diversion in California. His requirements ended up being reduced to weekly AA meetings. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should consider Ann Gottesman because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with re services.

Ann consulted with us on our daughter’s case and was very open, honest, and comforting. Our daughter was confronted by the police when she was in a park after hours, and was intimidated into giving consent for her possessions and car to be searched. The excessive search uncovered a tiny amount of prescription medication she should not have had. Ann explained to our daughter what her rights are and how to handle herself in that situation. She consulted with us several times on the case, and explained to us the worst case scenario, the best case, and what was most likely to happen. We discussed potential costs, which seemed reasonable. Eventually she verified for us that the case had been dropped. We are so grateful for all of her help, and truly appreciate her willingness to be available, her kindness, and her honesty.

Ann was knowledgeable and quick. I was right to trust her with my case. She was sending me good news only 5 weeks after my first call to her. I couldn’t believe it. Give Ann a call and let her take care of your issue!

I was pulled over for having something wrong with my vehicle and nothing wrong with my driving. I blew a 0.12. I called a few local attorneys, but Ann was the only one who I felt really listened to my situation. She was and is incredibly understanding and helpful. She allowed me to describe the events over the phone, even before entering her office. In her office, she explained what she was going to do and patiently re-explained things since I was new to the whole process; I had no priors. She also set up a monthly payment plan, which I found very helpful. She knows the legal system, the members of the court, and basically everything you would expect in an experienced and excellent attorney. Throughout the next six months, she explained everything she was trying, everything I needed to do, and she handled all of my court appearances and the DMV hearing. We worked as a team and I provided her with as much information as I could so that she could be successful. She is prompt with responses and text messages you right back. She worked very hard over 6 months and got my charge reduced to a wet reckless. On court day, I saw other attorneys with their clients and did not like how some of the clients were being treated. To me, that was another validation that I chose the right representation. She is lover of pets, an amateur astronomer, a caring person, and a consummate professional. Ann is excellent at what she does and you would be making a big mistake if you do not seriously consider her to represent you.

After being arrested in Pasadena for the first time in April and having no previous run-ins with the law, I immediately panicked!!! I spoke with a several attorneys that really didn't care much about what I had to say and the conversations felt very rushed; so I was discouraged in finding the right attorney to represent me. I then found attorney Gottesman through an advertisement online and I called her one late evening. To my surprise, she returned my call later that night outside of her office hours. She spoke with me and LISTENED to my concerns. After our conversation, attorney Gottesman put me at ease. I met with her later that week to further discuss my case and our meeting validated how trustworthy and attentive she truly is. She's one of those rare attorneys that genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond her clients expectations. After our initial meeting, she assured me that everything will be okay and that I was in good hands! Attorney Gottesman went to court for me and she immediately called me right after to give me an update. Knowing that a DUI is a serious offense and people charged with it generally get convicted, the unexpected happened. She worked her magic and a few months later, MY CASE WAS DROPPED!!! Her extensive experience and knowledge allowed her to get the best outcome anyone charged with a DUI can only dream of. I cannot thank her enough for making this nightmare go away. How many people charged with a DUI can say that their case was dropped?!!!!! Not many. I am in total disbelief because I was honestly expecting a lesser charge. I will forever grateful to Ann for everything she did. Thanks so much Ann. I cannot thank you enough for getting me out of this terrible nightmare. You are truly God send. Anyone seeking a criminal attorney should look no further because I can assure you that you will most definitely be pleased with attorney Ann Gottesman's services.

After what were the worst couple of days in my life, Ann put me at ease right away in her office. She was very thorough, and as this was my first time with any of this, she explained it to me until I understood. Ann was very compassionate, but she was also an experienced, knowlegable and convincing warrior for me in court. I left court with an even better outcome than I was expecting - with immense gratitude to Ann. Don't let her petite size fool you - she was a tough fighter and an amazing advocate for me throughout the entire process. I very highly recommend Ann to help you after the worst days in your life.

Finding Ann was truly a blessing! I was in dire need of assistance for a DUI case and didn't know where to begin. I was afraid, nervous, and very ashamed of my mistake as I had never been in a situation like this before. I spoke to multiple lawyers before finding her and none of them felt quite right. A few of them were very impatient, rude, and dehumanizing. I'm so thankful I didn't stop searching until I found Ann. She is compassionate, reliable, thorough, honest, and is always available to answer any questions. She always ensures you have a full understanding of the process and makes you feel safe and heard. She truly does everything in her power to help you! Ann was very blunt about all of the possible outcomes of my case. She is so incredible, she was able to get my DUI reduced to an exhibition of speed! I am so incredibly thankful for Ms. Gottesman, she is truly amazing! If you ever need a DUI lawyer, I firmly believe she is the best choice!

Ms. Gottesman is a great attorney, professional and personable. Here I would like to share all my experience having her as my attorney, which hopefully is helpful for others to find a right attorney. I got a false accusation against me and did suffer a horrible experience on this case because I got two attorneys who suck my money but didn’t do anything. After these two bad attorneys, I started “a journey” to find a real good attorney. I talked to dozens of attorneys. I was very carefully to choose attorneys because of the bad experience. Ms. Gottesman was the last attorney I contacted. In the first call with Ms. Gottesman, she did analyze the situation and gave a strategy after she listen carefully of my case. She also gave the price quote, which was a flat fee and quite reasonable price. Her kind and personable voice gave me a first impression that she was different with other attorneys I was talking to because it was a feeling that she is a person with sympathy. In the first place, she knew I was worrying and anxious when she heard the story. She also helped to appease my mind with her expertise. The second step, I carefully checked all the reviews of Ms. Gottesman on google, yelp and avvo. To my surprise that she had ALL five-star positive reviews on ALL the platforms. She’s got ALL five-star positive reviews in a career of 15 years. This is not easy to achieve. The third step, I must meet Ms. Gottesman in person before I decide to retain her. I met her in her office. She explained clearly to me not only the whole process but also how the system works. More importantly, Ms. Gottesman is very patient in answering my concerns. She also promised that my case can be solved quite soon based on the case facts. She’s very good at analyzing the case and finding my chances, which gives me confidence that she is the one who can help me to make the case dismissed quickly. During the case, she even offered more surprise. She kept me updated regularly. More importantly, she was proactive in talking to the city attorney. After getting the evidence from the court, she immediately found a time to talk to the city attorney. She pointed out the obvious evidence showing that I was false accused, which made the city attorney agreed to dismiss the case. After she talked to the city attorney, she called me immediately to tell me that the City Attorney dismissed the case. She said the official dismissal will appear in system until next court date, however, she wanted to let me know in the first place because she wanted me to stop worrying and have a good day. Then she also sent me the email regarding City Attorney case dismissal. It only used 3 days to make the case dismissed! She did the job fast and efficiently. Thanks Ms. Gottesman! I wish I met Ms. Gottesman from the beginning of my case. My former two attorneys spent a long time without making any progress. But Ms. Gottesman used 3 days to dismiss the case. You can’t imagine how big the difference is between attorneys! For me, who are new to such legal issues, the system is intimidating and tricky. Her professionalism and patience really gave me peace of mind. A good attorney can remedy your life. Lawyer is an occupation that’s the same as doctors, who can affect the life of a person. I believe there’re two important traits of a lawyer, one is professionalism, the other is caring so that she/he does not just look a case as money-making but changing a person’s life. Ms. Gottesman is an attorney who has these two traits in my view. If you need similar help, I highly recommend Ms. Gottesman. Besides, she charges reasonable, with no hidden fees.
