My first review was posted on July 5th. It was not positive but it was honest and it was my…read moreopinion. Mr. Underwood phoned me the following business day and he was quite unhappy. Full disclosure - I was not in the court room as I reside 1,800 miles from Bakersfield. But I personally selected Underwood Law as our representation based on a lengthy and very positive conversation I initially had with Mr. Underwood. Full details were disclosed and his response was extremely optimistic. We moved forward at the tune of $6,000. The optimism remained steadfast throughout all preparatory conversations with the paralegal making it known that she had never lost a case. On the day of our hearing Mr. Underwood suddenly stated to family that was in attendance that we could easily lose this case. We've no idea what caused this turnaround. Perhaps learning who the sitting judge was, perhaps having read the defendant's statement (we've yet to see this), we do not know. The case was lost in a matter of minutes. Back to Mr. Underwood's call regarding my review - we talked. He felt that I had been misinformed and he said he was going to put together a cover letter outlining the sequence of events, a copy of the petition that was filed on our behalf and finally a copy of the defendant's written response. He asked for a couple of days. In all fairness to Underwood Law, I removed my review pending his side of the story. Ten days later, having heard nothing, I inquired as to the disposition of said documentation. I was told that Ms. Medina was going to prepare the file and mail it out. That was 13 days ago and still crickets. It's a puzzling operation they run. Again - just my experience and my opinion. Dissatisfaction with the service of Underwood Law seems even more reasonable at this point.

PLEASE CONSIDER OTHER ATTORNEYS BEFORE HIRING. I hired…read moreattorney Robert Birchfield (AKA 'Bob' at The Ticket Warrior) in January to handle a citation, but I was extremely disappointed with the lack of professionalism and communication. I repeatedly asked for updates over several months with the understanding that my court date would be extended at the beginning of April. With zero updates received, I called the courthouse at 8:00 AM on the day of my deadline (today April 7th), only to find out that nothing had been filed on my behalf. I had to handle my own extension to avoid a failure to appear/warrant. Only after I contacted Bob this morning he attempted a last-minute email to the court at 8:31 AM. He claimed he had already made an arrangement, but when I called the court back, they confirmed he had just sent the email and it was still pending. This caused me unnecessary stress and forced me to do the work I specifically hired him for. While he did refund my money after I advised him of California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.4 (Duty to keep client informed), I would not recommend this firm if you are looking for peace of mind or proactive representation.

Hands down a great attorney who specializes in criminal cases but has been helpful to me on other…read moretypes of cases. He is intelligent with a good sense of humor. He is a man of faith but does not push it on his clients or friends but is not above asking if you would like to pray before beginning a meeting. If not then he moves on. He is respected by colleagues and opposing attorneys alike. It is obvious that judges on the bench respect him as well which goes to prove that he is honest and has a high moral standard. He wins verdicts but also makes good deals for his clients when they do not want to go to trial. The deals he negotiates are fair and accurate for the filed charges. I think his greatest quality second only to his knowledge of the law down to minor details is that he is a humble man which seems to be a rarity among many who are in this profession.

I must say I asked Bo how quickly this matter could be addressed as I was looking for a different career path and no longer wanted this to be my dark cloud that has faithfully been there with every door opening and slamming on me as quickly. Bo explained he could have this filed in court, appear in court for me I do not need to be present. Have it expunged, completed and rather quickly too which I was happily surprised! We talked about fees which were seriously reasonable and it was the greatest feeling knowing this was about to be behind me. All through the process I was provided with court dates and times. After the hearing I was contacted again to let me know it was all finished and I would be receiving a copy of the order. I didn't say I no longer reside in Kern county and Koenig came through. I was hesitant as it was not a face to face meeting or in office. GREATEST DECISION EVER! Thank you Koenig Law Office!

Unprofessional, Unresponsive, and Unethical - Avoid at All Costs…read more​If you are looking for a law firm that prioritizes media appearances over client representation, look no further. My experience with this firm was nothing short of a disaster. ​The level of negligence regarding communication is staggering. I made multiple attempts to reach my legal team, only to be met with total silence or inexcusable delays. It is clear that their time is spent chasing "fame" through interviews regarding past high-profile losses rather than focusing on the active cases of the people currently paying their bills. ​Most alarmingly, this firm demonstrated a complete disregard for attorney-client ethics by entertaining deals with the judge and prosecution without consulting me first. A law firm that makes life-altering decisions behind a client's back is a firm that cannot be trusted. ​With 100% certainty, I would never hire this firm again. In my honest opinion, you would receive more competent, dedicated, and ethical representation from a public defender. Do not waste your money on this "worthless" practice; they are far more interested in their own PR and your money rather than your legal rights.

I was 19 when I got my first DUI. I knew nothing about anything at that age so I just said "no contest" and took the DUI and all the fines and classes that came with it. Years later I ended up getting a second DUI and that's when I sought the help of Mr. Brehmer. He was amazing at what he did but in unfortunate events my life took a turn for the worse and I just stopped communicating with Mr. Brehmer. Fast forward a bit and yet again another DUI. Three of them all before I had turned 30...yikes! I spoke to Jeremy after the last one and he told me I would have to pay again but he would give me a deal. I really felt like he understood me. It took me a while to fix myself but I managed. When I contacted Brehmer law trying to figure out what to do in order to fix things with my cases I spoke to the women in the front and let me tell you what I was not happy with whoever it was at all ( I'm still not but I won't take a star away because of her). Long story short(er) I paid The money and got representation this time from Jared. Mr. Thompson was amazing and after everything I got one DUI COMPLETELY dismissed and the other turned to a "Wet and Reckless". A small fine and 6 week STEPS classes is basically all I got. I was so shocked and can only say Thank you so many times. I definitely recommend this place completely. If after all that your still not sure if it's worth it just go in and read about Jeremy Brehmer . He is pretty bad ass. His accomplishments are amazing and his education goes far beyond passing the BAR exam. I didn't get a whole lot of information on Jared Thompson but speaking with him he did work with the DA and then moved along. He does do other cases beyond DUIs where as Jeremy does only DUI cases.

Found this place after someone I know got a ticket in the Los Banos area and so glad we went with…read morethem because it was such a stress-free process. It was the first time I helped out with hiring a traffic lawyer so I can't really comment on the pricing. But considering that the fine costs way more, I think their pricing is fair for peace of mind since a court appearance was required and we lived 200+ miles away. All communication was through email or phone and they provided lots of updates when they showed up to court. Though we didn't get the results we wanted, they still were able to give the best possible outcome without having anything show up on the record. That was the ultimate goal anyway. Only reason why we didn't give a 5 star was because we thought communication through email could be a little better. Every time we sent an email, we would get little to no response unless we called to follow up. Other than that, I still highly recommend them especially if you get a ticket in the Los Banos/Merced area!
