I was facing a 2nd DUI offense & was absolutely terrified i'd receive jail time, especially considering how close together they were. Rob was very straight forward about what COULD happen, but was very confident that he'd be able to work out a no jail time deal regardless of the circumstances. He made me feel much more confident & wasn't a fearmongerer like many attorneys. Rob also had very positive energy and the day before court, told me confidently that he had a good feeling about the case. This helped me walk into court with zero fear & the expectation of a favorable outcome, no doubts in sight. With Robs quick actions & legal expertise, paired with a couple of legit miracles from the universe, I was only charged with a 1st offense & walked out with zero jail time. It also helped that Rob was familiar with the judge & DA at the courthouse. I did have to get an IID in my vehicle for 1 year and enroll in an 18 month program as required by the DMV, but if the judge were to sentence me based off a 2nd offense, he could have made things much worse for me. I'm very glad the DMV were the main people i had to work with in this case, as they're not as harsh as many (not all) judges lol. I'm super grateful for the outcome I received and as a Lancaster resident who hired Fred Thiagaraja's office all the way in Newport Beach, I knew exactly what i was doing when i retained his services. Thank you Right Choice Law. read more

I sought a consultation, but they neglected to respond. Once they did, I was disappointed with their communication style, which was marred by selfishness and occasional rudeness. Do NOT go to them read more

I recently had Fred represent me in a DUI case. Like anyone facing these charges knows, it is a highly stressful situation filled with many questions. I contacted Fred's office, and they got back to me within an hour. He was very professional and listened to all of what I had to say without judgement. After we decided on a strategy, he quickly began working with the courts and DMV. Ultimately, due to Fred dilegently gathering evidence and examining the case, we were able to have all the charges dropped! This was much better than I had expected! He was professional, personable, thourough, and answered all my questions. I highly recommend him....in fact, I still would even if we hadn't won the case. Thank you Fred! C.M. read more

Fred Thiagarajah and his staff are fantastic! He is the real deal. From start to finish, I was well informed as to my options and potential outcomes. Fred is a straight shooter. He didn't blow smoke and tell me what I wanted to hear. He tells it like it is and this is important when so much is on the line. He and his entire staff are professional and genuinely cared about my best interests. Fred is not only extremely knowledgeable in the law, but also with the ins and outs of the legal process. There is just so much to know and one can very easily get tripped up without the right representation. For me, the outcome was the best possible. I cannot say thank you enough. Let's hope you're never in a pinch, but if you are, give Right Choice Law a call. It's just the smart thing to do. read more

Literally the best in the business, I had a warrant for 8+ years due to not complying with court orders and failure to disclose original agreement. I messaged Fred's firm pretty late requesting a consultation and he personally called me within 30 minutes of me submitting the request. I needed this warrant to be removed as soon as possible, I hired him Wednesday night and by Friday morning the warrant was lifted. He took care of everything, I literally didn't have to lift a finger and he got everything done, I didn't even have to show up to any court dates. My resolution was better than expected only few days of COMMUNITY SERVICE AND few fees and I'm done! THANKS FRED & Team for all you do! read more

I made a big mistake. Fred and his staff were kind and responsive, and gave me realistic expectations.

He took the initiative to reach out to the courts when COVID hit just to get me information I couldn't find otherwise, months after he was finished with my case. Fred is the best! read more

I was referred to attorney Fred Thiagarajah when I was being prosecuted for major crimes after my professional license was used to commit fraud by a coworker without my knowledge. Fred went into action as soon as he took my call. Facing a dozen felonies and a half million dollar bail is no minor issue but Fred handled the situation smoothly and in the end cleared my name of any wrong doing. He brought me justice. While I hope no one else has to endure such a situation, I do wish everyone could be represented by an attorney as experienced and honest as Fred. Through the entire situation, I felt like I had a great friend as well as an ethical lawyer. Thank you for everything Fred. My deepest respect for you, sir. read more

Fred was a great help! We needed immediate representation for an urgent matter, and he was able to help me and my family out immensely. He is very good at what he does, represented me very well, and was very easy to communicate. I suggest you reach out to Fred if you need some help! read more

Fred was the second attorney I engaged after it became apparent that my initial choice was not providing comprehensive, expert advice on the different approaches I could take to deal with my legal matter. We started with a conservative approach, and Fred patiently waited for our initial strategy to play out before becoming more aggressive and eventually taking the case to trial. While no result is ever guaranteed, Fred's analysis of my situation gave me the confidence to face a jury (having never been arrested before). In my situation, a "not guilty" verdict was obtained, but as I stood there waiting for the decision, I felt that Fred had given the best defense possible. As such, I was willing to accept the outcome (as much as anyone can be ready to accept the outcome of a situation like that!) read more

Where to start. Criminal law is an extensive field, and to be an expert in it, you must not only be one who dedicates his craft to law research and law library, (Cases are not won in court, they are won in the library) but you must also have the self confidence required to efficiently and effectively argue that researched material across to Judges, Juries, and District Attorneys. Fred and I have never been in Trial, my case was beyond F'ed up for that. But I can tell you this, Fred was the most prepared, caring, competent attorney I have ever spoken with. He has worked as a District Attorney and knows how the game is played on their side. He knows his criminal defense law very greatly on top of it. You will pay for what you get. Fred has other attorneys working for him out of his office, and he will quote you prices for them, but in my opinion, the extra money Fred charges for his own personal attention and amazing brainstorming ability to be applied to your specific case... Is absolutely worth it. Prices are astronomical as are all pricing in criminal defense law, but if the police have attempted to ruin your life as they did mine... Work with Fred, listen to him, and take his advice. Fred will even tell you flat out if he has no chance of winning. This isn't a type of guy who likes to steal your cash. He will take it if he earns it and works hard fighting for you, but he won't just take your money and throw you on the back burner. Thank you Fred. read more

I was involved in a dispute with members of my mosque. I started to peacefully protest outside the mosque and these people filed four frivolous restraining orders against me, making up lies about me threatening people. I hired Fred Thiagarajah from Right Choice Law to fight these restraining orders and he did a great job. He was very thorough and professional, but also very personable. And when we went to court, he did a great job strategizing about how to beat the cases and arguing in court. Ultimately, the judge dismissed all the restraining orders against me. He was definitely the Right Choice for restraining order defense. read more

I just wanted to comment on how great I was taking care of by Fred Thiagarajah. I highly recommend his services. He was very thorough and professional. His services made it easier for me to get thru the court process and elminate any additional time on my behalf. Thanks again Fred. Your the man. read more

Fred Thiagarajah will go down in history. I've never encountered a more professional, honest, hand working, gentle, lawyer/human being in my life. Fred protected my Nursing license as if it was his own California Bar at stake. He gives his clients his all, and the results show for them. I was in a very low, desperate time in my life. When I came across Fred I saw the light. My case was dismissed, and I will forever be grateful to him. Hire Fred! You won't be disappointed. read more

Calling Mr. Fred Thiagarajah was a great decision! I made a horrible mistake one afternoon and as a result I was later arrested for Felony DUI with great bodily injury. I was looking at real prison time. I consulted with many attorneys, all told me the odds were stacked against me and all gave me the impression that prison time was inevitable. I ended up making an economical decision and hired an attorney close to my home. After talking to friends and family, I came to understand it would be in my very best interest to invest in a "great attorney" as the charges against me are serious and are going to affect the rest of my life. So I did my homework, I researched and I researched and I found Mr Fred Thiagarajah! I met with Mr Fred Thiagarajah soon after and he provided hope. He made me feel my life was not lost and told me it's going to be tough but he assured me all is not doomed. I got my money back form the other attorney and retained Fred. Yes, Fred cost more but was worth every penny. I would recommend Fred to anyone and everyone in a tough spot. After a long year of worrying, my case has been resolved. I will not be doing any jail time! The fines I must pay are minimal! I am more than pleased with Fred and his entire staff! They were always available to answer my questions and always addressed all my concerns. I made a huge mistake! I will never make a mistake similar again.. ATTORNEY NIRANJAN FRED THIAGARAJAH DID A GREAT JOB!!! I was truly blessed! read more

He has a wonderful, supportive staff. His pricing is affordable and a bargain for the excellent, proactive defense you will be receiving! Basically, Fred is awesome! read more

Get Attorney Thiagarajah if you have a criminal charges. He is the best possible attorney out there! Thiagarajah's website comes up while searching for seeking criminal charges related questions, because I was wrongfully arrested and charged. At that point, I didn't even know what to do on my case. I called so many lawyers, contacted websites, and hired 2 attorneys near the place I lived, the location next to court. No lawyers give/provide the straight answers whey called/asked. They would either ask your information or ask everything and will seek for hiring them to present you. After, they will get your payment and no longer available time for you. It was so painful to find a good sincere attorney. I called Thiagarajah's number from the website and left a voicemail. Within an hour, I got a call back from his assistant. The assistant is very polite, very thorough - She would not ask you things you do not want to disclosed, nor make fun of your questions. Thiagarajah called back the same day. He will not make your case simple nor he will not attracting to hire him first to help out. Instead, he will promptly answer and provide straight answers. His advice and answers are very impressive, clear and understandable. The advice saved my days, my live and my energy. No other attorney has helped me like Mr. Thiagarajah. I would strongly endorsed Mr. Thiagarajah for all your legal needs. read more
