However, our result was amazing: we got the Felony Assault FULLY DISMISSED, no state prison, no jail time! No felony on your record. We got on misdemeanor probation with some community service. Once your probation is over, we can get the whole thing expunged off you record (so you can say this case never happened). This is an excellent result!
I came to his office with my tail between my legs and seeing such a bad outcome. But after a few long and stressful weeks of waiting to see the judge Kevin worked his magic to help out with my case. Great lawyer would recommend him to anyone.
My uncle is in his mid-70s and was facing two serious felonies, which held the potential of 18 years in prison and two strikes . My uncle has NEVER been in trouble before. This was his first time ever in court room let alone facing felonies !
My uncle who was out on bail was late to court -from the courtroom they took him back into custody and raised his bail to $1 million.
Having sat in jail waiting for hearings and losing his daughter only a month prior, my uncle was tired and worn down—he just wanted “this over“. His public defender, who made no attempt to speak to our family or visit him in custody made a deal with the DA to accept one felony and one year in jail. My uncle , being exhausted and confused accepted the plea.
We retained Kevin—last minute!
Kevin walked into courtroom having not yet met my uncle , gathered some facts and did immediate damage control - He reversed the plea and prevented my uncle from going away for one year. During the course of the court appearances Kevin began collecting the facts of what led to these charges, speaking to all of our family , met with my uncle while in custody and was able to get him released from custody under the original bail that had previously been posted while he worked on his case .
Kevin , in my opinion, went above and beyond our expectations. He kept constant contact and did not leave us to the anxiety of wondering what was happening next . Kevin is upfront and honest about what is going on and what can happen. No sugar coating .
Kevin and I both know that if we had pushed this forward, he could’ve made ALL of it “go away” and we wanted to -but my uncle was tired and didn’t want to come back to court again. With those cards on the table - Kevin was able to bring one misdemeanor , no jail time , and the ability to have this expunged back to my uncle. That is the Only reason a plea was made and accepted —we had to think of my uncle’s health and mental strain this was placing on him ! He had been through a literal living nightmare sitting in jail facing these these allegations . If this can happen to my uncle who has never been in trouble , a contributing member of society and 74 years old - this can happen to you !
There are no better advocates for our loved ones than the family itself, and a heck of a good attorney. But, in order for your attorney to do his job he needs all the facts. Be honest with him and don’t filter anything.
If you or a loved one is facing trouble—find a way to get the money—walk into court with Kevin at your side. Let Kevin put the gloves on for you!
THANK YOU KEVIN for all you did !
Keep those teeth sharpened !
Cheers , Liz and Family
While no one wishes to find themselves in a criminal situation, but if life catches you off guard for whatever reason I recommend contacting Kevin Moghtanei immediately. He's the best choice you can make!
The prosecution was considering filing charges against me, but we were able to set the matter for a pre-filing hearing. After a City Attorney Hearing, we successfully were able to get the case tossed and avoid ALL charges, the best possible result.
Kevin is that rare professional who can perfectly balance being responsible, knowledgeable, friendly and cool. He walked me through every step of the process and was quick to return any e-mail/call/text I had with answers to all of my questions. I rolled the dice on him because of a good gut feeling I had, and so grateful I did.
Here is a brief overview of this case: I was falsely accused of battery misdemeanor, I found out quickly that once you enter the court system you need someone who who can guide you thorough a situation that most of us are completely unaware of. I found Kevin and after meeting with him realized he was the person I wanted and needed representing me.
The prosecution was trying to convict me of misdemeanor battery on another person, and attempting to give me up to 6 months in county jail, along with possibly one year of anger management counseling.
Rather than having the burden and cost of a trial. Kevin successfully was able to get the misdemeanor charge fully dismissed, so that my record is still clear! We also were able to avoid any jail time, and avoided the anger management program. We settled with the prosecution for a mere infraction for disturbing the peace, which is akin to a jaywalking ticket. I was more than happy with the outcome and able to move past a situation I have never been in before.
Kevin was professional and efficient throughout my case, he was also reassuring and friendly when I needed it. Again, I would HIGHLY recommend Kevin Moghtanei to anyone in need of a professional advocate.
He is so knowledgeable and experienced, sometimes you think that he is your best friend who gives you some legal advice. Don't hesitate to contact him at the time that you need a lawyer.

The police arrested me for an allegation of a DUI, along with an additional allegation of driving with a blood alcohol content over .08%. (I was .10) And they were seeking prosecution for these charges against me. A conviction of these charges could have resulted in county jail time up to 180 days, and being found guilty of driving over .08% allegation would have resulted in an automatic license suspension. But we fought back.
And our result was amazing: we got BOTH the original allegation of DUI dismissed, and the allegation of driving with .10% dismissed as well! I’m so glad i wasn’t convicted of DUI or Wet and Reckless because that’s very bad for your insurance rates! But our outcome was really amazing. We got zero jail time, saved over $1,200.00 in court fines/ fees, with the very minimum informal/ summary probation. Technically I can live wherever I like and travel wherever I want over the next 2 years and nobody could say otherwise. No need to check in with anyone, no probation officer, no drug tests, etc., nothing. I Just stay out of trouble.
Further, after the summary probation is over, I can get the whole damn case fully expunged off my record, so that I can legally write that I was never charged or convicted of anything in this case! This was overall a very excellent result!
Now just waiting for the result of my license hearing Nov 22. I have a good feeling about it. Update coming..
I've never had an outcome where I've been unsatisfied.
Last thing I want to point out is this.. I sat and watched different attorneys appear in front of the same judge as my case, and man let me tell you I’m so happy that I hired Kevin. He came in after these other defendants, and proved to me he was worth every cent. Little things. Little things can make all the difference with these judges. Highly recommend Kevin to anyone seeking defense council for your particular situation.
I set up three meetings with different attorneys prior to meeting with Kevin and decided to retain DCD Law as he made me feel at ease from the very beginning. We met on several occasions to discuss my case and Kevin was always professional, helpful and attentive. He made me feel his interest in my well-being is genuine and sincere. He always listened. Even when things were uncertain, he was optimistic. Kevin isn't just my attorney, he's whom I consider today a friend for life. Through his efforts, my cases were dismissed! I have never felt so relieved. Words can't express how grateful and thankful I am for his guidance and support. Thank you Kevin for a job well done! I wish you and DCD law much continued success as you continue to make a difference in the lives of many others. Again, thank you!
I just can't say enough good things about Kevin Moghtanei and DCD LAW.
I would definitely recommend him to anyone searching for a dui lawyer in the san fernando valley
