About

Defending Your Rights, Protecting Your Freedom.Persistence, Knowledge, Dedication.  Paul S. Geller is dedicated to providing the type of criminal defense you should expect when hiring private counsel.  These are the characteristics which are common among all of our goals.First, we want you to have an understanding of the events and proceedings during our representation.  It is extremely important to us that you clearly understand the charges you're being faced with, the potential consequences, and the criminal process.  We will take the time to explain anything which seems confusing, and will make ourselves as available as possible to answer your questions and concerns, even after hours.Second, we strive to keep an open line of communication between our clients and the firm.  We are firm believers that in building your defense, we need to work as partners with our clients.  The trust between a lawyer and his client must be held in the strictest confidence to ensure the best possible defense.   Lastly, expect to be handled with the utmost professionalism, with an eye not only on keeping you out of jail and minimizing the criminal penalties you could be faced with, but also with the awareness of how the criminal charges can affect other aspects of your life.  Many of our clients are professionals and could face additional penalties affecting their professional licenses, such as chiropractors, doctors, lawyers, physical therapists, etc.  Additionally, many crimes could have an effect on your driver's license, auto insurance, etc.  We will do everything in your best interest not only in defending your criminal case, but with an awareness on other potential consequences.Having a diverse background is one of the reasons Mr. Geller can negotiate and argue cases so effectively.  Although a native of southern California, Mr. Geller displayed his leadership skills playing college baseball and obtaining his Bachelor of Science from the  University of Colorado at Boulder .  After working in the corporate world in San Francisco for two years, he returned to Los Angeles , attending Southwestern University School of Law.  He volunteered and worked throughout law school for the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office.  Upon graduating from law school, he was employed with the L.A. D.A.'s Office for several years as a trial attorney, where he tried all types of cases from DUIs to murder.  He has always been active in professional and community activities, including the Los Angeles County Bar Association, the Beverly Hills Bar Association, the Indigent Criminal Defense Appointments Program, coaching trial advocacy teams at Southwestern University , and judging trial advocacy competitions.  It is Mr. Geller's well roundedness that has enabled him to succeed as a criminal defense attorney.  His dedication and ability to relate and communicate with people has enabled him to negotiate settlements and dismissals, often on the eve of trial.

There are times in our life when we are thrown into challenging hard times. Wondering how do I get through this or even how did I get here! Well Mr. Paul Geller was that guiding light. He provided the answers and hope I was searching for. As we know the judicial system is not always perfect and doesn't always protect the innocent. Being falsely accused of domestic violence and arrested for it was disheartening and scary. I actually got to see first hand how the law can be turned around and work against the innocent. This is an accusation that can destroy a person's life and reputation. I knew I just couldn't trust anyone to hold my future, my life in their hands. Mr. Geller got me through that dark time, allowing me to continue living my life free. That is priceless!

Paul made sure to take care of my matter, even as I was abroad and in a different part of the State. He was kind, a good listener, and ensured the optimal outcome in my case. I hope to never need his services again, but I highly recommend him if you find yourself in need.

We were unfortunate to come across a legal situation over the holidays that required immediate attention. We contacted Paul to see if he could help, and without hesitation, he decided to represent us in resolving this matter. Paul was not only honest with his assessment, but very intelligent, trustworthy and very professional with how he handled the case. He rearranged his schedule to make time for our matter and kept us in the loop with necessary information at every stage. He was very thorough in gathering information to represent our best interests. At the hearing, Paul was able to resolve the matter and reach a resolution that we were hoping for, and probably would not have achieved without his services. I cannot recommend Paul's services enough!! If you or anybody you care about are in a bind, definitely give him a call. I'm grateful that he was there to help us and I can honestly say that if you are ever in need of an attorney, you will not find a better one than Paul.

When Paul consulted me at first our meeting because his professionalism, confident and calmness, then I knew he would be the lawyer could help my case, so I hired him. For about over a month whenever I had questions and need to talk he would call back in time. Yes, with his professionalism, he complete dismissal of the entire case against me. I feel so grateful and want to say thank you Paul.

Paul is a gifted attorney who is incredibly knowledgeable and savvy at his craft. He has provided both me and some of my friends very solid counsel in the past. He has a tremendous amount of integrity, and his ability to listen and empathize allows for a tremendous level of comfort and confidence knowing that he has his client’s best interest at heart.

Paul is a great attorney. Not only does he have deep expertise, intelligence, and a great listening skills, he also has deep integrity, which in my opinion, is the most important character trait for any professional I hire. For example, my wife and I once went to Paul for a specific issue and he referred us to a colleague who he thought was a better fit for our specific case. Consult/hire Paul Geller without reservation. He will not disappoint you.

I had a friend in a bad position with an altercation with a law enforcement officer. Lots of backstory. Bottom line was that none of us were hopeful that he would be able to sort it out with the courts. I sent him to Paul and the whole thing was resolved in a matter of days. My friend (and all of us) couldn't be happier with the results!
