Ben was recommended to us by an attorney friend who highly recommended him as the "Best Criminal attorney in Orange County". We experienced that first hand and couldn't be happier with the outcome and treatment received from Ben and his staff. Ben kept us informed and met with us regularly to discuss the case and what we should expect. Ben went above and beyond for us and was more then happy to do so. The process was lengthy(1 yr 3mos.) and very emotional. He was always available to talk when needed and gave sound advice and good reason which was very comforting during this long ordeal. We put all our faith and trust in him for a successful outcome and he continues to not disappoint us by helping with probation statutes. We cannot thank him enough for all of his hard work and dedication.
Ben was recommended to me by other attorneys (divorce, real estate, and business lawyers) as the best criminal attorney I could ever dream of. These other attorneys were 100% correct. Other lawyers have commented on how he is greatly respected, he is extremely informed and there is no delay in achieving success. I did my research to find that Ben Ostrer achieved success on many high-profile cases BUT he is totally dedicated no matter how small or big your case might be. Do not fear the cost - he is very reasonable. The most important issue is that I trust him with my life. You absolutely must meet him to realize that you never need to look further. If you are searching for a successful ending, you need to begin that journey with Ben. You can trust him with your life. I can't possibly thank him enough for all he has done for me.
Ben came highly recommended by our family attorney when we needed a criminal attorney. He made an awful, unjustified situation much easier with a wonderful outcome. This was not a high profile case but treated it with great importance.
Working with Ben and his team on my daughter’s case left me highly satisfied. Ben was extremely informative and educated my daughter and myself on what would happen throughout every step of the process. Being in business for many years, Ben is highly knowledgeable and actually cares about his clients. I would use Ben again and also refer him to anyone that needed an attorney. Great law firm!
I called for a consultation. Mr. Ostrer was not in the office but when I explained my situation to the receptionist, he called me back quickly . He was very kind and after speaking with me we scheduled an appointment for the next day. Unfortunately my situation changed early the next morning I called him again and he immediately gave me advice and guidance on what to do next. He then acted on my behalf even though we had not yet met or having been hired. He had an associate attorney be there for my family member and then called me to explain what was happening. His associate attorney also called me to tell me what had happened and what would come next.Mr. Ostrer was very gentle and generous even though we were not able to hire him.He gave me direction and suggestions to help with the situation.He did this without even meeting me He stepped up and helped out of the goodness of his heart. I will always be grateful to him
I'm not even sure how I stumbled across Mr. Ostrer's website, but I am so glad I did! I had called 15 previous Attorneys and not one gave me the time and information that Mr. Ostrer did. He didn't know me, I'm not a client, just a cold call looking for help. He was so helpful and knowledgeable about the law and processes, he took his time to explain everything to me even though he knew half way into the call that he would be referring me to a different type of Attorney. Mr. Ostrer asked me to keep him posted on how everything turns out....now if that's not a caring man, I don't know what is!!! Highly recommend him and I will be keeping in touch with him on my case.
Mr. Ostrer is the best! Really! Very honest, experienced, understanding, and kind hearted man! He really saved my life when I got into trouble even though it was not my intention for what I got charged with. My situation was really bad but Mr. Ostrer calmed me down and told me exactly what I had to do. He was willing to fight with me until the end! Most lawyers are only after the money but NOT Mr. Ostrer!! He really cares and fights for justice! I bet on my life that you can trust Mr. Ostrer with any trouble that you have!!! He is #1
Thank you so much, you were so helpful.
I hired Mr. Ostrer for a case that felt on me as a surprise. He proved my innocense in just 2 court appearances. Fees are not excessive. Excellent personnel. He always keeps you on top of what is going on.
I was recently a client at this law firm for a DUI case. I was dealing primarily with Marissa Tuohy, a lawyer under the firm. I really liked the availability of my lawyer to answer my questions and how I was always kept in the loop. In the end it was reduced to a lower, non criminal charge. I would definitely recommend this law firm to someone looking for an honest, reliable lawyer. She was very professional and completely in tune with the law and how to move the case forward.
