I was represented by Kasey and her firm from early 2015 until early 2017. I was initially assigned to an attorney, who left part way through, due to personal reasons. Kasey picked up my case immediately. Having worked directly with Kasey early on in my case I knew she had just as much if not more knowledge of the facts in my case, than my previous attorney. My family and myself went through some of the most stressful times during the time Kasey represented me. Kasey was there whenever I had questions or even when my wife had questions. When we got to trial, her preparation and court demeanor far exceeded the other attorneys who represented my co-defendants. After getting a drastically reduced plea deal after a hung jury, we started preparing to get my job back. After my family and I realized, I did not want my previous job back, Kasey was able to negotiate a settlement which helped me to keep my options open in the future, and a nice monetary settlement. Now that everything is over, I consider Kasey family, and My wife, My children and myself are all moving forward towards a better life.

Kasey is the only choice for any member of law enforcement (or really anyone). She is highly knowledgeable about her craft and made sure to take the time to not only make sure I was prepared, but that I understood the process and my rights. Despite her busy schedule, she took the time to make sure I felt protected and comfortable. She is the type of lawyer you would trust not only yourself, but your family with!

“Use of Force case In a Nut-Shell:” On or about September of 2014, I arrested a gang member for two active and violent felony warrants. I was driving into a parking lot, when the suspect saw I was a Police Officer, he immediately began to run. Two other Officers eventually joined me in the foot chase. The foot chase lasted several minutes. We jumped over chain-link fences and brick walls. At the conclusion of the foot chase, I was able to intercept Suspect as he was exiting a small “get-away” gap between a large metal container and a building. As we stood face to face, Suspect refused to “get on the ground” numerous times. Eventually I was able to bring him down to the ground, put him in a rear-twist control hold in an attempt to arrest him. He was not done resisting arrest. As this is happening my partner arrived and “assisted me” to make the arrest, “with no further incident.” Several hours later, a Police Sergeant was notified of a Use of Force incident that occurred during the arrest. Several days later, I was called into the station to speak with Internal Affairs (I.A) investigators. I immediately seek counsel, (Kasey Alyson Castillo). I met with Kasey and told her exactly what occurred and what I saw. Based on my statement, she recommended I provide a “voluntary statement,” to which I had no issue with. I had done nothing wrong. To me, this arrest was “just another arrest.” It was during the voluntary statement that I learned details of what a surveillance camera captured. This camera was mounted on a top corner of a building, only recording from THAT angle. At this point, I was told the suspect was assaulted by my partner. This was in assault that I never saw. I was not worried about what my partner was doing; simply knowing he was there with me, made me feel safe. I repeatedly told the investigators I did not see the assault. After my interview, I was charged with accessory after the fact, Perjury and for filing a false police report. Attorneys: Kasey Castillo, Steve Sanchez, Nikki Naleway Brazney and Tara Collins aggressively began working with my partner’s Attorney Michael Schwartz. Kasey wrote numerous letters to my Police Chief, attended I.A hearings, all in an attempt to save my job, to no avail. Kasey explained in detailed every avenue there was available in my best interest. Kasey and Steve told me what the “worst” and “best” case scenarios I was facing. Kasey offered family support, telling me to share her contact information with my spouse, in case my wife had any questions she could have called Kasey directly. Months and a year went by. At this point, Kasey, Steve, Nikki and Tara had pages after pages of well-prepared written documents. Kasey, Steve and Nikki were always prepared and ready to take on the DA. Steve presented a “995 motion” to have all criminal charges dropped against me do to the lack of evidence. Judge agreed and had the felony perjury charge dismissed. Prior to this dismissal, the District Attorney dismissed the PC 32 in the “best interest of justice.” Now I was faced with the misdemeanor, for filing false police report. Finally, we’re now sitting in a court room. We had our Juror panel patiently waiting for the details to emerge in reference the assault. On 05/23/16, after a few days of court testimony and video evidence the Jury began deliberating. Even though it only took them TWO HOURS to deliberate, it was the worst two hours for me. Sitting outside the court room, with Steve, Steve telling and reassuring me everything was going to be okay. It took Jurors TWO hours to have a NOT GUILTY Verdict. Attorneys, CO-workers, parents, friends, spouses and siblings could not hold their tears and began crying of joy as the verdict was being read. My family and friends are truly blessed with Kasey’s, Steve’s, Nikki’s and Tara’s hard work. THANK YOU Kasey for your hard work.

I would recommend this firm to any law enforcement officer looking for an attorney to present them with any legal/criminal/administrative issues with their departments... I had a officer involved shooting and two administrative investigations all within in a year! I couldn't have done it without Kasey on my side during the administration interviews and hearings etc.. She is absolutely amazing and I'm very happy with the end results for all three situations.... She was always good about working around my crazy work schedule and also being there for me professional/personal life! Everyone is professional at the law firm. From the receptionists answering the phone to the attorneys representing and answering any questions or concerns...Everyone is great!!! I recommend this firm to anyone who needs an attorney that will go above and beyond their call for duty to help peace officers with anything in their career needing legal assistance....

Kasey Castillo is an incredible lawyer. She saved my job and got me reinstated as a supervisor. She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She is a fierce lawyer that is not afraid to roll up her sleeves and fight with powerful administrators when they are wrong. She is a true superhero in my eyes. Thank you, Superwomen :-)

Without hesitation, Mrs. CASTILLO should be your first choice in all matters. She has treated each of my cases as if it was her highest priority. Each outcome was a success. Mrs. CASTILLO is easy to relate to and is very aggressive in her dealings.

I had a small legal issue that I needed help with. I was referred to Kasey through a friend and was more than pleased. She provided great advice that allowed for me to deal with the issue without court time and minimal expense. She even helped to speed some of the paperwork through the system. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I'm so thankful for Kasey and her team. I spoke with many attorneys prior to Kasey about my case and all they did was stress me out. I knew within minutes from our first phone call I was going to hire Kasey. She put my mind at ease and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. I had a complicated case and Kasey came out with the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend giving Kasey a call. What a life saver.

Kasey picked up my case immediately. Having worked directly with Kasey early on in my case I knew she had just as much if not more knowledge of the facts in my case, than my previous attorney. My family and myself went through some of the most stressful times during the time Kasey represented me. Kasey was there whenever I had questions or even when my wife had questions. When we got to trial, her preparation and court demeanor far exceeded the other attorneys who represented my co-defendants. After getting a drastically reduced plea deal after a hung jury, we started preparing to get my job back. After my family and I realized, I did not want my previous job back, Kasey was able to negotiate a settlement which helped me to keep my options open in the future, and a nice monetary settlement. Now that everything is over, I consider Kasey family, and My wife, My children and myself are all moving forward towards a better life.

Kasey is the only choice for any member of law enforcement (or really anyone). She is highly knowledgeable about her craft and made sure to take the time to not only make sure I was prepared, but that I understood the process and my rights. Despite her busy schedule, she took the time to make sure I felt protected and comfortable. She is the type of lawyer you would trust not only yourself, but your family with!

“Use of Force case In a Nut-Shell:” On or about September of 2014, I arrested a gang member for two active and violent felony warrants. I was driving into a parking lot, when the suspect saw I was a Police Officer, he immediately began to run. Two other Officers eventually joined me in the foot chase. The foot chase lasted several minutes. We jumped over chain-link fences and brick walls. At the conclusion of the foot chase, I was able to intercept Suspect as he was exiting a small “get-away” gap between a large metal container and a building. As we stood face to face, Suspect refused to “get on the ground” numerous times. Eventually I was able to bring him down to the ground, put him in a rear-twist control hold in an attempt to arrest him. He was not done resisting arrest. As this is happening my partner arrived and “assisted me” to make the arrest, “with no further incident.” Several hours later, a Police Sergeant was notified of a Use of Force incident that occurred during the arrest. Several days later, I was called into the station to speak with Internal Affairs (I.A) investigators. I immediately seek counsel, (Kasey Alyson Castillo). I met with Kasey and told her exactly what occurred and what I saw. Based on my statement, she recommended I provide a “voluntary statement,” to which I had no issue with. I had done nothing wrong. To me, this arrest was “just another arrest.” It was during the voluntary statement that I learned details of what a surveillance camera captured. This camera was mounted on a top corner of a building, only recording from THAT angle. At this point, I was told the suspect was assaulted by my partner. This was in assault that I never saw. I was not worried about what my partner was doing; simply knowing he was there with me, made me feel safe. I repeatedly told the investigators I did not see the assault. After my interview, I was charged with accessory after the fact, Perjury and for filing a false police report. Attorneys: Kasey Castillo, Steve Sanchez, Nikki Naleway Brazney and Tara Collins aggressively began working with my partner’s Attorney Michael Schwartz. Kasey wrote numerous letters to my Police Chief, attended I.A hearings, all in an attempt to save my job, to no avail. Kasey explained in detailed every avenue there was available in my best interest. Kasey and Steve told me what the “worst” and “best” case scenarios I was facing. Kasey offered family support, telling me to share her contact information with my spouse, in case my wife had any questions she could have called Kasey directly. Months and a year went by. At this point, Kasey, Steve, Nikki and Tara had pages after pages of well-prepared written documents. Kasey, Steve and Nikki were always prepared and ready to take on the DA. Steve presented a “995 motion” to have all criminal charges dropped against me do to the lack of evidence. Judge agreed and had the felony perjury charge dismissed. Prior to this dismissal, the District Attorney dismissed the PC 32 in the “best interest of justice.” Now I was faced with the misdemeanor, for filing false police report. Finally, we’re now sitting in a court room. We had our Juror panel patiently waiting for the details to emerge in reference the assault. On 05/23/16, after a few days of court testimony and video evidence the Jury began deliberating. Even though it only took them TWO HOURS to deliberate, it was the worst two hours for me. Sitting outside the court room, with Steve, Steve telling and reassuring me everything was going to be okay. It took Jurors TWO hours to have a NOT GUILTY Verdict. Attorneys, CO-workers, parents, friends, spouses and siblings could not hold their tears and began crying of joy as the verdict was being read. My family and friends are truly blessed with Kasey’s, Steve’s, Nikki’s and Tara’s hard work. THANK YOU Kasey for your hard work.

I would recommend this firm to any law enforcement officer looking for an attorney to present them with any legal/criminal/administrative issues with their departments... I had a officer involved shooting and two administrative investigations all within in a year! I couldn't have done it without Kasey on my side during the administration interviews and hearings etc.. She is absolutely amazing and I'm very happy with the end results for all three situations.... She was always good about working around my crazy work schedule and also being there for me professional/personal life! Everyone is professional at the law firm. From the receptionists answering the phone to the attorneys representing and answering any questions or concerns...Everyone is great!!! I recommend this firm to anyone who needs an attorney that will go above and beyond their call for duty to help peace officers with anything in their career needing legal assistance....

Kasey Castillo is an incredible lawyer. She saved my job and got me reinstated as a supervisor. She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She is a fierce lawyer that is not afraid to roll up her sleeves and fight with powerful administrators when they are wrong. She is a true superhero in my eyes. Thank you, Superwomen :-)

I had a small legal issue that I needed help with. I was referred to Kasey through a friend and was more than pleased. She provided great advice that allowed for me to deal with the issue without court time and minimal expense. She even helped to speed some of the paperwork through the system. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I'm so thankful for Kasey and her team. I spoke with many attorneys prior to Kasey about my case and all they did was stress me out. I knew within minutes from our first phone call I was going to hire Kasey. She put my mind at ease and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. I had a complicated case and Kasey came out with the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend giving Kasey a call. What a life saver.

“Use of Force case In a Nut-Shell:” On or about September of 2014, I arrested a gang member for two active and violent felony warrants. I was driving into a parking lot, when the suspect saw I was a Police Officer, he immediately began to run. Two other Officers eventually joined me in the foot chase. The foot chase lasted several minutes. We jumped over chain-link fences and brick walls. At the conclusion of the foot chase, I was able to intercept Suspect as he was exiting a small “get-away” gap between a large metal container and a building. As we stood face to face, Suspect refused to “get on the ground” numerous times. Eventually I was able to bring him down to the ground, put him in a rear-twist control hold in an attempt to arrest him. He was not done resisting arrest. As this is happening my partner arrived and “assisted me” to make the arrest, “with no further incident.” Several hours later, a Police Sergeant was notified of a Use of Force incident that occurred during the arrest. Several days later, I was called into the station to speak with Internal Affairs (I.A) investigators. I immediately seek counsel, (Kasey Alyson Castillo). I met with Kasey and told her exactly what occurred and what I saw. Based on my statement, she recommended I provide a “voluntary statement,” to which I had no issue with. I had done nothing wrong. To me, this arrest was “just another arrest.” It was during the voluntary statement that I learned details of what a surveillance camera captured. This camera was mounted on a top corner of a building, only recording from THAT angle. At this point, I was told the suspect was assaulted by my partner. This was in assault that I never saw. I was not worried about what my partner was doing; simply knowing he was there with me, made me feel safe. I repeatedly told the investigators I did not see the assault. After my interview, I was charged with accessory after the fact, Perjury and for filing a false police report. Attorneys: Kasey Castillo, Steve Sanchez, Nikki Naleway Brazney and Tara Collins aggressively began working with my partner’s Attorney Michael Schwartz. Kasey wrote numerous letters to my Police Chief, attended I.A hearings, all in an attempt to save my job, to no avail. Kasey explained in detailed every avenue there was available in my best interest. Kasey and Steve told me what the “worst” and “best” case scenarios I was facing. Kasey offered family support, telling me to share her contact information with my spouse, in case my wife had any questions she could have called Kasey directly. Months and a year went by. At this point, Kasey, Steve, Nikki and Tara had pages after pages of well-prepared written documents. Kasey, Steve and Nikki were always prepared and ready to take on the DA. Steve presented a “995 motion” to have all criminal charges dropped against me do to the lack of evidence. Judge agreed and had the felony perjury charge dismissed. Prior to this dismissal, the District Attorney dismissed the PC 32 in the “best interest of justice.” Now I was faced with the misdemeanor, for filing false police report. Finally, we’re now sitting in a court room. We had our Juror panel patiently waiting for the details to emerge in reference the assault. On 05/23/16, after a few days of court testimony and video evidence the Jury began deliberating. Even though it only took them TWO HOURS to deliberate, it was the worst two hours for me. Sitting outside the court room, with Steve, Steve telling and reassuring me everything was going to be okay. It took Jurors TWO hours to have a NOT GUILTY Verdict. Attorneys, CO-workers, parents, friends, spouses and siblings could not hold their tears and began crying of joy as the verdict was being read. My family and friends are truly blessed with Kasey’s, Steve’s, Nikki’s and Tara’s hard work. THANK YOU Kasey for your hard work.

I would recommend this firm to any law enforcement officer looking for an attorney to present them with any legal/criminal/administrative issues with their departments... I had a officer involved shooting and two administrative investigations all within in a year! I couldn't have done it without Kasey on my side during the administration interviews and hearings etc.. She is absolutely amazing and I'm very happy with the end results for all three situations.... She was always good about working around my crazy work schedule and also being there for me professional/personal life! Everyone is professional at the law firm. From the receptionists answering the phone to the attorneys representing and answering any questions or concerns...Everyone is great!!! I recommend this firm to anyone who needs an attorney that will go above and beyond their call for duty to help peace officers with anything in their career needing legal assistance....

Kasey Castillo is an incredible lawyer. She saved my job and got me reinstated as a supervisor. She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She is a fierce lawyer that is not afraid to roll up her sleeves and fight with powerful administrators when they are wrong. She is a true superhero in my eyes. Thank you, Superwomen :-)

I had a small legal issue that I needed help with. I was referred to Kasey through a friend and was more than pleased. She provided great advice that allowed for me to deal with the issue without court time and minimal expense. She even helped to speed some of the paperwork through the system. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I'm so thankful for Kasey and her team. I spoke with many attorneys prior to Kasey about my case and all they did was stress me out. I knew within minutes from our first phone call I was going to hire Kasey. She put my mind at ease and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. I had a complicated case and Kasey came out with the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend giving Kasey a call. What a life saver.

I was represented by Kasey and her firm from early 2015 until early 2017. I was initially assigned to an attorney, who left part way through, due to personal reasons. Kasey picked up my case immediately. Having worked directly with Kasey early on in my case I knew she had just as much if not more knowledge of the facts in my case, than my previous attorney. My family and myself went through some of the most stressful times during the time Kasey represented me. Kasey was there whenever I had questions or even when my wife had questions. When we got to trial, her preparation and court demeanor far exceeded the other attorneys who represented my co-defendants. After getting a drastically reduced plea deal after a hung jury, we started preparing to get my job back. After my family and I realized, I did not want my previous job back, Kasey was able to negotiate a settlement which helped me to keep my options open in the future, and a nice monetary settlement. Now that everything is over, I consider Kasey family, and My wife, My children and myself are all moving forward towards a better life.

To me, this arrest was “just another arrest.” It was during the voluntary statement that I learned details of what a surveillance camera captured. This camera was mounted on a top corner of a building, only recording from THAT angle. At this point, I was told the suspect was assaulted by my partner. This was in assault that I never saw. I was not worried about what my partner was doing; simply knowing he was there with me, made me feel safe. I repeatedly told the investigators I did not see the assault. After my interview, I was charged with accessory after the fact, Perjury and for filing a false police report. Attorneys: Kasey Castillo, Steve Sanchez, Nikki Naleway Brazney and Tara Collins aggressively began working with my partner’s Attorney Michael Schwartz. Kasey wrote numerous letters to my Police Chief, attended I.A hearings, all in an attempt to save my job, to no avail. Kasey explained in detailed every avenue there was available in my best interest. Kasey and Steve told me what the “worst” and “best” case scenarios I was facing. Kasey offered family support, telling me to share her contact information with my spouse, in case my wife had any questions she could have called Kasey directly. Months and a year went by. At this point, Kasey, Steve, Nikki and Tara had pages after pages of well-prepared written documents. Kasey, Steve and Nikki were always prepared and ready to take on the DA. Steve presented a “995 motion” to have all criminal charges dropped against me do to the lack of evidence. Judge agreed and had the felony perjury charge dismissed. Prior to this dismissal, the District Attorney dismissed the PC 32 in the “best interest of justice.” Now I was faced with the misdemeanor, for filing false police report. Finally, we’re now sitting in a court room. We had our Juror panel patiently waiting for the details to emerge in reference the assault. On 05/23/16, after a few days of court testimony and video evidence the Jury began deliberating. Even though it only took them TWO HOURS to deliberate, it was the worst two hours for me. Sitting outside the court room, with Steve, Steve telling and reassuring me everything was going to be okay. It took Jurors TWO hours to have a NOT GUILTY Verdict. Attorneys, CO-workers, parents, friends, spouses and siblings could not hold their tears and began crying of joy as the verdict was being read. My family and friends are truly blessed with Kasey’s, Steve’s, Nikki’s and Tara’s hard work. THANK YOU Kasey for your hard work.

I would recommend this firm to any law enforcement officer looking for an attorney to present them with any legal/criminal/administrative issues with their departments... I had a officer involved shooting and two administrative investigations all within in a year! I couldn't have done it without Kasey on my side during the administration interviews and hearings etc.. She is absolutely amazing and I'm very happy with the end results for all three situations.... She was always good about working around my crazy work schedule and also being there for me professional/personal life! Everyone is professional at the law firm. From the receptionists answering the phone to the attorneys representing and answering any questions or concerns...Everyone is great!!! I recommend this firm to anyone who needs an attorney that will go above and beyond their call for duty to help peace officers with anything in their career needing legal assistance....

Kasey Castillo is an incredible lawyer. She saved my job and got me reinstated as a supervisor. She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She is a fierce lawyer that is not afraid to roll up her sleeves and fight with powerful administrators when they are wrong. She is a true superhero in my eyes. Thank you, Superwomen :-)

Without hesitation, Mrs. CASTILLO should be your first choice in all matters. She has treated each of my cases as if it was her highest priority. Each outcome was a success. Mrs. CASTILLO is easy to relate to and is very aggressive in her dealings.

I had a small legal issue that I needed help with. I was referred to Kasey through a friend and was more than pleased. She provided great advice that allowed for me to deal with the issue without court time and minimal expense. She even helped to speed some of the paperwork through the system. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I'm so thankful for Kasey and her team. I spoke with many attorneys prior to Kasey about my case and all they did was stress me out. I knew within minutes from our first phone call I was going to hire Kasey. She put my mind at ease and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. I had a complicated case and Kasey came out with the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend giving Kasey a call. What a life saver.

I was represented by Kasey and her firm from early 2015 until early 2017. I was initially assigned to an attorney, who left part way through, due to personal reasons. Kasey picked up my case immediately. Having worked directly with Kasey early on in my case I knew she had just as much if not more knowledge of the facts in my case, than my previous attorney. My family and myself went through some of the most stressful times during the time Kasey represented me. Kasey was there whenever I had questions or even when my wife had questions. When we got to trial, her preparation and court demeanor far exceeded the other attorneys who represented my co-defendants. After getting a drastically reduced plea deal after a hung jury, we started preparing to get my job back. After my family and I realized, I did not want my previous job back, Kasey was able to negotiate a settlement which helped me to keep my options open in the future, and a nice monetary settlement. Now that everything is over, I consider Kasey family, and My wife, My children and myself are all moving forward towards a better life.

Kasey is the only choice for any member of law enforcement (or really anyone). She is highly knowledgeable about her craft and made sure to take the time to not only make sure I was prepared, but that I understood the process and my rights. Despite her busy schedule, she took the time to make sure I felt protected and comfortable. She is the type of lawyer you would trust not only yourself, but your family with!

“Use of Force case In a Nut-Shell:” On or about September of 2014, I arrested a gang member for two active and violent felony warrants. I was driving into a parking lot, when the suspect saw I was a Police Officer, he immediately began to run. Two other Officers eventually joined me in the foot chase. The foot chase lasted several minutes. We jumped over chain-link fences and brick walls. At the conclusion of the foot chase, I was able to intercept Suspect as he was exiting a small “get-away” gap between a large metal container and a building. As we stood face to face, Suspect refused to “get on the ground” numerous times. Eventually I was able to bring him down to the ground, put him in a rear-twist control hold in an attempt to arrest him. He was not done resisting arrest. As this is happening my partner arrived and “assisted me” to make the arrest, “with no further incident.” Several hours later, a Police Sergeant was notified of a Use of Force incident that occurred during the arrest. Several days later, I was called into the station to speak with Internal Affairs (I.A) investigators. I immediately seek counsel, (Kasey Alyson Castillo). I met with Kasey and told her exactly what occurred and what I saw. Based on my statement, she recommended I provide a “voluntary statement,” to which I had no issue with. I had done nothing wrong.

At this point, Kasey, Steve, Nikki and Tara had pages after pages of well-prepared written documents. Kasey, Steve and Nikki were always prepared and ready to take on the DA. Steve presented a “995 motion” to have all criminal charges dropped against me do to the lack of evidence. Judge agreed and had the felony perjury charge dismissed. Prior to this dismissal, the District Attorney dismissed the PC 32 in the “best interest of justice.” Now I was faced with the misdemeanor, for filing false police report. Finally, we’re now sitting in a court room. We had our Juror panel patiently waiting for the details to emerge in reference the assault. On 05/23/16, after a few days of court testimony and video evidence the Jury began deliberating. Even though it only took them TWO HOURS to deliberate, it was the worst two hours for me. Sitting outside the court room, with Steve, Steve telling and reassuring me everything was going to be okay. It took Jurors TWO hours to have a NOT GUILTY Verdict. Attorneys, CO-workers, parents, friends, spouses and siblings could not hold their tears and began crying of joy as the verdict was being read. My family and friends are truly blessed with Kasey’s, Steve’s, Nikki’s and Tara’s hard work. THANK YOU Kasey for your hard work.

I would recommend this firm to any law enforcement officer looking for an attorney to present them with any legal/criminal/administrative issues with their departments... I had a officer involved shooting and two administrative investigations all within in a year! I couldn't have done it without Kasey on my side during the administration interviews and hearings etc.. She is absolutely amazing and I'm very happy with the end results for all three situations.... She was always good about working around my crazy work schedule and also being there for me professional/personal life! Everyone is professional at the law firm. From the receptionists answering the phone to the attorneys representing and answering any questions or concerns...Everyone is great!!! I recommend this firm to anyone who needs an attorney that will go above and beyond their call for duty to help peace officers with anything in their career needing legal assistance....

Kasey Castillo is an incredible lawyer. She saved my job and got me reinstated as a supervisor. She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She is a fierce lawyer that is not afraid to roll up her sleeves and fight with powerful administrators when they are wrong. She is a true superhero in my eyes. Thank you, Superwomen :-)

Without hesitation, Mrs. CASTILLO should be your first choice in all matters. She has treated each of my cases as if it was her highest priority. Each outcome was a success. Mrs. CASTILLO is easy to relate to and is very aggressive in her dealings.

I had a small legal issue that I needed help with. I was referred to Kasey through a friend and was more than pleased. She provided great advice that allowed for me to deal with the issue without court time and minimal expense. She even helped to speed some of the paperwork through the system. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I'm so thankful for Kasey and her team. I spoke with many attorneys prior to Kasey about my case and all they did was stress me out. I knew within minutes from our first phone call I was going to hire Kasey. She put my mind at ease and took care of absolutely everything from start to finish. I had a complicated case and Kasey came out with the best possible outcome. I would strongly recommend giving Kasey a call. What a life saver.

I was represented by Kasey and her firm from early 2015 until early 2017. I was initially assigned to an attorney, who left part way through, due to personal reasons. Kasey picked up my case immediately. Having worked directly with Kasey early on in my case I knew she had just as much if not more knowledge of the facts in my case, than my previous attorney. My family and myself went through some of the most stressful times during the time Kasey represented me. Kasey was there whenever I had questions or even when my wife had questions. When we got to trial, her preparation and court demeanor far exceeded the other attorneys who represented my co-defendants. After getting a drastically reduced plea deal after a hung jury, we started preparing to get my job back. After my family and I realized, I did not want my previous job back, Kasey was able to negotiate a settlement which helped me to keep my options open in the future, and a nice monetary settlement. Now that everything is over, I consider Kasey family, and My wife, My children and myself are all moving forward towards a better life.

Kasey is the only choice for any member of law enforcement (or really anyone). She is highly knowledgeable about her craft and made sure to take the time to not only make sure I was prepared, but that I understood the process and my rights. Despite her busy schedule, she took the time to make sure I felt protected and comfortable. She is the type of lawyer you would trust not only yourself, but your family with!

“Use of Force case In a Nut-Shell:” On or about September of 2014, I arrested a gang member for two active and violent felony warrants. I was driving into a parking lot, when the suspect saw I was a Police Officer, he immediately began to run. Two other Officers eventually joined me in the foot chase. The foot chase lasted several minutes. We jumped over chain-link fences and brick walls. At the conclusion of the foot chase, I was able to intercept Suspect as he was exiting a small “get-away” gap between a large metal container and a building. As we stood face to face, Suspect refused to “get on the ground” numerous times. Eventually I was able to bring him down to the ground, put him in a rear-twist control hold in an attempt to arrest him. He was not done resisting arrest. As this is happening my partner arrived and “assisted me” to make the arrest, “with no further incident.” Several hours later, a Police Sergeant was notified of a Use of Force incident that occurred during the arrest. Several days later, I was called into the station to speak with Internal Affairs (I.A) investigators. I immediately seek counsel, (Kasey Alyson Castillo). I met with Kasey and told her exactly what occurred and what I saw. Based on my statement, she recommended I provide a “voluntary statement,” to which I had no issue with. I had done nothing wrong. To me, this arrest was “just another arrest.” It was during the voluntary statement that I learned details of what a surveillance camera captured. This camera was mounted on a top corner of a building, only recording from THAT angle. At this point, I was told the suspect was assaulted by my partner. This was in assault that I never saw. I was not worried about what my partner was doing; simply knowing he was there with me, made me feel safe. I repeatedly told the investigators I did not see the assault. After my interview, I was charged with accessory after the fact, Perjury and for filing a false police report. Attorneys: Kasey Castillo, Steve Sanchez, Nikki Naleway Brazney and Tara Collins aggressively began working with my partner’s Attorney Michael Schwartz. Kasey wrote numerous letters to my Police Chief, attended I.A hearings, all in an attempt to save my job, to no avail. Kasey explained in detailed every avenue there was available in my best interest. Kasey and Steve told me what the “worst” and “best” case scenarios I was facing.
