About
I am the most experienced trial attorney in the Coachella Valley. I have tried almost 200 jury trials to verdicts in my 38 year of criminal defense career. Over 25 of those trials were murder cases. I have the distinction of having the first and only Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity jury verdict in a first degree murder case in San Diego County. I will handle your case, be a felony or misdemeanor, with the same care and agrressive style that has made me one of the finest trial attorneys in Southern California.

I was dealing with a sexual battery allegation that I knew was not sexual battery and maintained my innocence in the ordeal. After I hired his firm for the services needed to fight this case I remember crying in his office to him saying that I just less than a year ago got done with college and was scared of the thought of having to register as a sex offender and he looked at me in the eyes and said to me what kind of lawyer would I be if I let that happen. He stayed true to those words and fought this so I did not have to. I eventually won my case thanks in large part to John and his daughter Jessica fighting my case. I can't thank both of them enough for their compassion and support from a personal level and professional as they were both willing to speak with my family and assure them that they would do all they could to fight this...and they did!
I had an unusual DUI case. I was arrested in a Private Country Club in Palm Desert in a golf cart. I retained Desert Defenders, John and Jessica Jimenez. John made me very comfortable and confident about my case. I was concerned about the book being thrown at me. John and Jessica represented me at court, met with the D..A., and got me the minimal charges. They are not only very professional and nice, but prolific! They always put me at ease by answering all my questions and getting back to me at a moments notice, whether it be by phone or e-mail. I would certainly recommend both of them to whomever and whatever endeavor they might take on.
I found Mr Jimenez on a web search. I was an out of state client and John guided me through the legal process with exceptional patience and kindness. I felt like I had 24/7 access and I never once felt like "a criminal" in the eyes of this man. He was VERY prompt with answering or returning my calls. My questions were answered in simple terms and he was nothing but amazing. I hope to never need John in the future but I would NEVER hesitate to return for his guidance.
John and his team were absolutely fantastic. I was kept up to date at all times, received all the proper documentation from the courts that was issued, and was given knowledgable and honest advice. My situation was special since I live overseas and could not be present for my case, but it was no matter because John made it so that I did not have to worry about how far away I was. He went through every part of my case step by step and definitely goes out of his way to assist his clients into finding the best possible outcome. I would recommend anyone requiring a defense lawyer in the Southern California, particularly Palm Desert, area to contact John because he is familiar with the area, knows the ins and outs of his trade, and is dedicated to assisting you in resolving your case. Thank you very much John.
John is the most understanding person I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, completely professional, and handled my case with ease. Choosing John as my lawyer was the best decision I've made!

John was an amazing asset to have when I went through my domestic accusation. This was my first experience with the law or an attorney. John explained very clearly what my situation was, what my options were and kept very positive and focused on our road ahead. John cleared me of any wrong doing and in the process taught me how to be a better person. I would recommend John to anyone.
John has worked wonders on my past traffic cases, I feel he was very knowledgeable in all areas that I needed advice on, I feel that I could not possible have found a better Attorney to help me defended myself. During the time of the disputes he was able to keep me well informed on the status of all my cases as well of helping to break down the technicality's of the reasons why he was doing what he was doing to ensure my comfortably in the case, John has always been a Five star Attorney in my eyes.
John could talk to me on my level that i felt very comfortable. He solved my problem (red light camera ticket ) very fast keeping me informed all the time.
