I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional work James E. Silverstein did on my case. From start to finish, he went far beyond what I expected. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made all the difference in achieving a successful outcome.

What impressed me most was his attention to detail, constant communication, and willingness to go the extra mile—even when things got complicated. He made sure I understood every step of the process and always made me feel like a priority.

If you’re looking for an attorney who is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly invested in your case and well-being, I highly recommend Mr. Silverstein. He exceeded all expectations, and I’m extremely grateful for his support and expertise.

Thank you again for everything!

He is well known in the Los Angeles Angeles County court system and beyond he is well-versed and values and compassionate feelings towards his clients and the courts I was very fortunate to have him help my daughter and her case Everything went great and I would definitely use James again. His staff is very prompt and accurate and getting back to you not only is James friendly and has awesome values as a human being but he sincerely cares.

I recently discovered a 30-year-old criminal charge on my record that had not come up on any previous background checks in the past. And it was preventing me from a job opportunity. Attorney Silverstein took on my case. His assistants kept me informed with all updates, and he was able to get the matter expunged within 6 weeks. This attorney is simply AMAZING! If you’re looking for fast, reliable, and honest representation, then look no further than Attorney Silverstein and his staff!
You will not be disappointed.

James Silverstein has been my attorney for many years now, and he is hands down one of the best lawyers in LA County and in his profession. He not only represented me in court, but goes out of his way to make himself available anytime I needed legal advice. I am grateful for his expertise in helping me with my case, and I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of legal help. Thank you James for all of the amazing work you do!

Leanne A.

James Silverstein was referred by to me by an old acquittance. James Silverstein did a great job defending me. Not only did he ensure that the outcome of my proceedings was the best outcome possible given the circumstances, he was fair, courteous and took the time to help me through a stressful situation! It’s good to know James will be there for me should I ever need his services again.

Jaime De La Torre

Dear Mr. Silverstein,

On behalf of my husband and myself, please accept our sincerest gratitude for your exceptional work on our case. We understand the complexities and challenges you faced, and the complete dismissal of the charges was truly remarkable. We’ve consulted with several other attorneys previously, and their efforts unfortunately proved unsuccessful. Your skill, dedication, and perseverance in achieving this outcome are beyond measure. The relief we feel is immense, and the weight lifted from our shoulders is indescribable.

The positive impact of your representation extends far beyond the legal victory itself. Your professionalism, empathy, and clear communication throughout the process were invaluable and provided us with the support we desperately needed during a very stressful time. We are deeply thankful for your commitment to justice and your unwavering efforts on our behalf.

Thank you again for everything. We are truly indebted to you.

Janis V.

I want to thank Mr. James E.Silverstein and team for all the hard and professional work they did in my case. Mr. James is well respected in any of the courts that we went and always very professional. Several lawyers I went didn’t want to take my case, telling me that it’s super expensive or it wouldn’t be possible. Mr. James explain to me the process and how much it was going to coast, he is very reasonable with his priceless and he works with you. Thank you so much Mr. James for all your work God blessed you and your team, all your hard work paid off I am now proudly a U.S. CITIZEN 🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🙏 … I strongly recommend Mr. James to anyone, strong and very professional lawyer.

When I was referred to James Silverstein, I was in a state of panic. The lawyers I had initially spoken to were out of my price range. When I called his office, the secretary helped me get an appointment for the very next day. Meeting with James and taking him the court papers put my mind at ease. He assured me it wasn’t as bad as I thought, and that it was a winnable case. James was easy to talk to, and more importantly, James listened. James felt we could go to court and resolve this issue, and that is exactly what happened. He won our case, and charged me a fair price. He never doubted us, and I was amazed at his professionalism. I would use him again in a heartbeat if I found myself in any trouble. When you find yourself in legal problems outside your scope, James will be able to talk to you in a way you can understand and can reassure you that you will be okay. I can’t thank James enough for what he’s done for me.

Anastasia W.

I have been a client of James Silverstein for over 12 years. He always comes thru with helping with our citations in Los Angeles. He is honest and upfront of what the possible outcomes could be. He replies to our emails within 24 hours, and typically same day from either him personally or his staff. He is a small office, so you are not just a number, it is a personalized experience. Reliable and trustworthy.

Michelle P.

I would highly recommend Mr. Silverstein. He is very kind, knowledgeable, attentive, and professional. Him and his team were amazing at communication and helping me understand what was happening with my case and what to expect. After our first meeting I knew I made the right choice as he was able to make me feel heard and at ease during my stressful situation.

Vanessa R.

James was very supportive and communicative as we navigated through the layers of our case. Very knowledgeable and confident in his delivery and presence, which is very comforting during such a stressful time. He is clearly respected in the courthouse! I am grateful that he accommodated us from the day we met, until the very successful conclusion of the case, three years later. He stayed consistent and prepared. I am confident that I would maintain him as a resource moving forward, if I need legal input. A job well done!

Shelly B.

James Silverstein did a great job defending me. Not only did he ensure that the outcome of my proceedings was the best outcome possible given the circumstances, he was fair, courteous and took the time to help me through a stressful situation! I will never look for another defense attorney now that I know James Silverstein.

Adam L.

This review is long overdue but James has helped my husband, my brother in law and a friend. There’s just no other criminal lawyer I would recommend.
He’s super attentive, personable, caring, and most importantly works fast! I’ve dealt with a few lawyers and he’s by far the best! Always the first in court and always so well prepared, this guy works his butt off to get you the best deal and you can definitely notice it. So happy we found him!

Jessica C.

Attorney Silverstein and his staff were very professional and kind. They took my case and explained every detail as to what the court would do. I am very happy to have attorney Silverstein represent me and made me feel at ease with my case.
I would highly recommend him.

Shelby M.

If I could give Mr. Silverstein a 10 star I will gladly do so.
One of the best attorneys in Los Angeles!!
He worked hard in my case and he got the best results. In the future if I ever need his services I will definitely get him again!!..

Joseg P.

Mr Silverstein and his team are amazing. They work hard and are exceedingly smart. They know case law thoroughly and helped me vacate 3 complicated cases. I can’t thank Mr. Silverstein enough for all his help and support. Highly recommend!

Oscar S.

James is an outstanding attorney. Incredibly dedicated, diligent and smart. Always prepared, proactive and really effective in court. I’d give him 10 stars if I had that option.

Patti C.

Wow! I had a PC1000 case hanging over my head since 2018, and now it’s all over and dismissed- Thank You James! I am so blessed to have had you represent my future. James has strong values which guide him to work hard in your favor. Here is a man a trust fully , especially when my freedom is at stake!

Freedom

James E. Silverstein represented me for an extremely difficult case which took many months and some clever jousting, for want of a better word, and managed to achieve a favorable result. He was always available when I called him and kept me up to date with the progress of the case. I am extremely

Excellent representation

As a 10-year client, Mr. Silverstein has represented the owner of our company on various moving violations throughout the years. His experience and knowledge of the LA Courts and Judges, has always been successful with dismissals of our cases. His law firm is straight-forward, minimal paperwork, great communication, and very easy to reach if you need to speak with him. Unheard of these days in Los Angeles. He is excellent and I highly recommend.

A Great Attorney with Proven Results

We are forever grateful for James! We were in a very bad position facing charges that could potentially destroy our lives. We are so happy we hired James as he was with us through the entire process—never more than an email or call away. He was always there for us to offer a reassuring word and we are so grateful for the patience he demonstrated no matter how many times we reached out. His connections and skills are top notch—he was able to get our charges dropped and we never had to even go to court! He is truly a miracle worker.

Outstanding Attorney

Our family was very lucky to be referred to James E. Silverstein on a case that started out with 3 felony charges and with his very wise counsel, expertise and representation was reduced in court to one misdemeanor charge. His attentiveness and kindness toward us was genuine over the year he worked on the case. When we went to court last week, we observed three attorneys go before the judge before our case was called. Their presentations were not impressive and their motions were all denied. Our case was called and James was so professional and impressive. The judge accepted all recommendations without questions and we left with a heavy burden lifted.

Outstanding Attorney

Mr. James E. Silverstein is a wonderful lawyer and got my traffic case dismissed. His office is conveniently located in Beverly Hills. He kept me updated on his progress. He is professional and organized.I definitely recommend Mr. Silverstein to anyone who needs a great lawyer.

Case Dismissed

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!

Case dismissal

I’m extremely satisfied with Attorney James E. 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.

Citation Dismissed!

I am so thankful to James for everything he did to help me not only get my case completely dismissed, but for always being willing to listen and offer comforting and confident words of encouragement during a time that was very unsettling. If it had not been for Mr.Silverstein the outcome of this situation would have been far more costly, timely, and potentially detrimental to my future.

Help you can count on

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.

Red Light Camera Ticket

I can’t say enough great things about James E. Silverstein. He is both experienced and an expert in Criminal Law, and he came highly recommended by an attorney friend of mine. I retained him on a traffic case, and he made himself available before our 1st meeting to answer all of my questions over the phone (on a weekend). Then at our meeting, he listened carefully to everything I had to say about the case (I was pretty emotional), then he explained thoroughly about his experience with similar cases in the past, and was very honest about the possibilities of what COULD happen in situations like these. At the same time, he reassured me that he will do whatever it takes to fight the case. And HE DID! He got me out of a case, and I owe him my life! James is very good about following up on new developments, and giving the best advice on how to win a case. His assistants always made sure to return my calls if I had any questions/concerns, and I was continually impressed with the level of professionalism and service they provided. If you are looking for an attorney who can help, I highly recommend James E. Silverstein. He will and can help!

One of the best Criminal Defense Lawyer in LA

Auto vandalism- Mr. Silverstein navigated me through what I needed to do to get restitution for my vehicle that was damaged and had get the receipts from my mechanic and present them to the court for restitution which I had no clue how to do and was most helpful .

Hit n run- I was accused of hitting and running from an accident. Per Mr Silverstein, I took a picture of the front of my car and no parts were taken or damaged and nothing was changed. In the picture, you can still see the sun fade on the top of the bumper from age fade from the sun, the airbag did not deploy and it was Mr. Silverstein’s deduction that someone hit the person 2 cards in front of me and then immediately moved into the next lane before the injured party could react and I just happen to be the first car that they saw.

Auto vandalism/ hit n run

I have nothing but the best to say about James. He is patient and kind, responded to every single one of my emails with care and understanding. He made my case a priority to him, he never took longer than a few hours (if not minutes) to respond to me, even if I had the dumbest question. When shopping for a lawyer I saw one other prior to meeting with James and the minute I stepped into James’ office I felt reassured and had an immediate feeling of trust. I know how scary legal troubles can be, but do yourself a favor and hire James. My case was dismissed, enough said.

Fantastic Lawyer!

James is the utmost of professionals!!! I have had the pleasure of having him numerous times as guest/expert on my KABC radio show. He knows criminal law inside and out and is a great relief to our vast listening audience!

Stan K

James is the man! We all make some mistakes, some more serious than others. I would have had to serve serious jail time if it wasn’t for his experience, the way he was able to see parts of my case that I didn’t realize would work in my favor, and of course his aggressive style in the courtroom. My felony (you don’t want to know) was reduced to a misdemeanor, and I received 3 years summary probation. No jail time! Didn’t lose a moment with my kids. If you’re looking for a real criminal attorney that knows the ins and outs of the legal system, James is the man.

Felony reduced to misdemeanor, summary probation
