Calabasas Criminal Defense Law Firm

Very professional, extremely efficient, no-nonsense defense attorney. While facing serious charges, I was able to worry a lot less knowing everything was being done to help keep me out of jail!

We found James Silverstein through Yelp and based on his great reviews, met with him to discuss a DUI charge. He was up-front with us about what we were facing and assured us that he would do everything he could to get us the results we were hoping for. He kept a positive outlook throughout everything and stayed true to his word about fighting hard for the best possible outcome. He was always available for questions or assistance and treated us not just as clients, but as friends. I'm so relieved we hired him - he was able to get us a judgment with no jail time, just community service and an alcohol program. I couldn't believe it!! Thank you so much James!!

I could not have asked for a more professional, compassionate or trustworthy advocate! James helped my family though a scary situation we never in a million years thought we could be in.

He is quick to respond to phone calls and text and explains everything in detail so my family understood exactly what was going!

We saw results and felt he worked hard for us!

I highly recommend using James to represent my family and friends if we should need a lawyer in the future!!!

I'm extremely satisfied with Attorney James Silverstein. He was patient and very knowledgeable. A good friend of mine referred him to me, and as we know word of mouth referrals are always most trustworthy!
He handled a Traffic Citation I had for speeding and was able to get it dismissed for me. He saved me money, and a point on my driving privilege. All i did was give him the ticket and he was very fast at getting to work on it. I recommend him to anyone, who doesn't have time to deal with these painful traffic citations, and of course want to maintain a clean driving record lol.
THANK YOU AGAIN Mr. Silverstein.

Their aren't enough stars to score James performance. He kept me calm and focused so I could live my daily life and not let my foolish mistake affect my personal life. The man should be a life coach.

Top Criminal Attorney Mr. Silverstein is a top criminal attorney. He is knowledgeable and knows the criminal law to the best. When I met him for the first time he knew how to approach my case and was able to dismiss it without any records in place.


He is very professional and supportive. He was present at all of my hearings and the judges respect him a lot. His staff are very professional and supportive. He responded to all my calls and emails on time.


I highly recommend him to any one who has a case without any reservations.

Case dismissed. Nuff said.

Love this guy!

His professionalism , and dedication to service ones needs is irreplaceable!!.I really enjoyed working with him and he was so responsive to all of my needs. He was always very attentive, and provided great service.Turned my case into a simple pat on the hand, and sionara!!!Thanks you james for making things so easy!!!

My friend borrowed my car and got a stupid red light camera ticket by making a right-turn-on-red near the Metro Orange Line. The ticket came in my name for $500. I read that supposedly you can ignore these but after months of ignoring it and several notices from the court, a letter came from the DMV stating that my license was going to be suspended for failure to appear. Now there's two charges against me - the failure to appear and the actual citation. James met me at the court on two occasions. On the first occasion he got the FTA thrown out. On the second occasion he saw the judge while I waited outside the courtroom. 45 minutes later he emerged from the court and said "dismissed." Fantastic! James was honest, professional, friendly and knew what he was doing. Couldn't ask for more.

I am beyond thankful for James! Let me start off by saying how genuine and attentive he is! No lawyer compares to him! He kept me away from jail time, misdemeanor, points etc. I did not need to take days off of work either! I highly recommend! Thank you again, James!
