A family friend referred me to Shawky Law Firm as I needed some legal advice. I wondered if they would call me back, would they be easy to talk with, and would they be answer my questions. Shawky Law Firm was easy to work with, efficient, professional, and was provided great results. I would highly recommend this law firm.
I ended up in a situation where I needed legal support. I had all the concerns, where do I go for help? Will I be given correct information? Will the attorney be to busy and pawn me off to some paralegal? Will the attorney answer my questions and be easy to follow up with? I was fearful because I had never been in this kind of situation. Upon speaking with Tarek I could sense he was genuinely concerned about my well being. Tarek took the time to answer all of my questions as well as guide me through potential possibilities. He is extremely intelligent and he provided me information I would need to take the next steps with confidence. It was also easy to follow up with him when additional concerns arose. I never had to wait to long for a call back or speak to some assistant. This was a breath of fresh air for me, most offices made it difficult to work with an attorney. Considering all the attorneys I reached out to I felt most comfortable with Tarek. In addition to being patient this gentleman is a really kind and professional person coming from great place in his heart, he really wants to make sure that we are aware of our rights, are treated fairly and defended diligently. I will continue to seek out his services if I ever need to.
I am fortunate to have known Tarek for a very long time. He is a very sharp, trustworthy, and quick witted individual. When I needed some legal advice and guidance I turned to him and I couldn’t have been happier with the result. I would recommend him to anyone who ever asks me, “Do you know a good lawyer?”
Needed some advice regarding a specific infraction and I called the Law Offices of Tarek Shawky. He was a delight to speak with, extremely knowledgeable and undoubtedly, a professional. Absolutely recommend this gentlemen for your legal inquiries. Thanks again Tarek.
Tarek has been a supportive attorney from day 1! Tarek is professional and is very well versed on how the systems work, from the jail house to the DAs office and courtroom. One of my family members was wrongfully accused , and was charged with 2 counts against him. Tarek and his staff worked diligently to do everything necessary to prove my brothers innocence. His case got dismissed and now my brother can go on with his life and pursue his goals. If i may suggest, trust the process it's the hardest thing to do, but with Tarek on your side it's all worth it!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!
After a night drinking in Pasadena I made the unfortunate decision to get behind the wheel. I was pulled over by CHP. I got a ticket for drinking and driving. I refused the Alcohol test required by law after I failed a preliminary test with a BAC of .191 thinking it would hurt me more than help. I contacted Tarek with my situation coming highly suggested to my father from his friend. He was compassionate to my situation and believed he could help my case. I hired him for the DMV portion of my case as well as the criminal portion. He was always professional and on time to all court appearances. He ended up getting my DUI charge reduced to a Wet and Reckless. This also decreased the time required for classes and fees, with no jail time. He went above and beyond offering to expunge my case and doing several other things for me attorneys would usually charge for. I am extremely thankful to Tarek for helping me. I have since referred several other people to him as a result of his success with my own case.
Tarek helped us out when I was in a jam. I had never been in trouble before and I was shocked when I got arrested and charged for a traffic accident. I was facing a serious felony with possible prison time and I felt overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. I'm a full time mom with kids and I could not afford to go to jail. Tarek helped me get bailed out and was very patient and understanding every step of the way. He walked me through the difficult process and always took my calls, day or night and answered all my questions whenever I needed him. He fought for me in court and got my case reduced to a misdemeanor with no jail time. I was very happy with the result and with his service. I would absolutely recommend Tarek to help anyone who finds themselves dealing with a criminal case. His fee was fair and his work was excellent.

The next day we met, I hired him and he was very professional and thorough and took care of everything from A to Z until the case settled in the best possible way.
