I ran in to a legal matter in where I was accused of a shoplift that was genuinely a mere accident on my end; not intentional. I was facing a potential misdemeanor theft charge. I have a spotless record and have never had a run in with the law; not even a mere traffic violation. I wasn’t about to allow injustice in this, so I sought out the best attorney I could find to address this issue. Upon meeting with AZ, he remained professional, understanding and confident that we could get a favorable outcome with this whole ordeal. While no attorney can make a promise of a specific outcome, there was something about his knowledge, skill set and confidence that I knew I could trust. Needless to say, my case ended up with a highly favorable outcome - beyond what I would have expected, and will have no detrimental outcome in my record at all. I highly recommend AZ for your matters!

AZ represented my daughter on a charge was able to get it removed and expunged. I also had a charge and AZ came to the rescue during a bad time in my life after my fathers death. He was exceptionally helpful in getting court dates postponed as I was dealing with my Dads Death. He was able to get my charged expunged as well. I don’t know how I would of managed without the help and guidance from AZ! He definitely is worth any amount of money to have him on your side. Make an appointment to see him!!

AZ provided an excellent service and was able to achieve the best possible results for my case. He was personable and very friendly while also maintaining a professional attitude. I would recommend his services, and the overall services of Oberman and Rice to anyone in need of DUI or DWI assistance and/or legal defense.

Throughout my life I have never had a need for a lawyer. Arrin Zadeh was recommended by a friend and I'm thankful he did. Arrin handled everything while keeping me up to date. I won't say the experience was enjoyable, but I have no doubt Arrin got me the very best result possible and I felt at ease throughout the process.

AZ was able to take a bad situation and turn it into a much better one. He was more than helpful and very professional.

AZ was incredibly thorough when we met. He reviewed all details so that there was no confusion on the prospects for success or failure. He made sure that I received the best possible outcome and did not make any judgements about the charges filed against me. He was friendly and supportive the entire time I dealt with him.

I would highly recommend Arrin Zadeh and His staff. The Man told me what He could do and is a Man of his Word and got My charges dismissed. All of His staff all knew my name and treated Me with the respect. I was not proud of what had happened to me and when everything was said and done I could walk a little taller, with dignity, knowing that I have some new friends that believed in me. PGC

I had such bad luck before my birthday, on my way to work I had an emergency bathroom run and ended speeding, just so happens I got pulled over. With a Class A CDL and security clearance I knew I was doomed but Arrin relieved my stress the first meeting I had with him! He told me to leave my stress behind me. My case ended being dismissed which I had faith in him the whole time! Thank you so much Arrin! You’re a life saver! I would definitely recommend him to anyone with legal troubles!

Son made some bad decisions, and was arrested. Mr. Zadeh moved quickly to gather information and have the case dismissed within a few days. He went out of his way to accommodate our schedules. He was a blessing to a mom many hours away. I highly recommend him.
