I have experience in both criminal defense and prosecution, having resolved thousands of cases throughout my career. I firmly believe that most cases can be settled efficiently, but I am always prepared to defend my clients in court when necessary, ensuring their arguments are powerfully presented to achieve favorable outcomes.
Preparation is key in any legal case. I meticulously review every document and video, and maintain well-organized files to ensure I am fully prepared when a case goes to trial. I value punctuality and strive to have my clients' cases addressed promptly in court, which helps in reducing their time and financial costs associated with prolonged legal proceedings.
Each case presents its own set of challenges, even if the charges or the number of defendants are the same. I make it a point to listen attentively to each of my clients, treating every inquiry with importance. I never dismiss a question as repetitive; instead, I seek to understand the underlying concerns of my clients. This approach helps me anticipate their needs and address them proactively.

- I opened my own practice after working for several years as a prosecutor in Stanislaus County and a public defender in Calaveras County. I handled dependency and juvenile cases in Calaveras and was a conflict attorney as a prosecutor handling several thousand cases including homicide cases. I thoroughly review a case and the existing statute and relevant case law on each case to make sure my clients are fully represented.

- Q. I did 3 police complains about a neighbor hassling me about my house the last one I asked them to keep their distance
- A: You would need to provide a bit more information.
Are you asking if you can get in trouble for calling 911 too many times?
Are you asking if it can cause issues with the neighbor?
Hard to answer your question without more information.
- Q. Can California cops in placer County arrest and impound a vehicle on a suspended license
- A: As Mr. Fazzi said, yes they can. You are driving without a valid license. There are many other ways they could have handled the situation, like leaving the car locked, or having another licensed person move the car. However, they are not required to do so.
- Q. Would this be considered a co conspirator?
- A: Based on your fact pattern alone, yes John can face conspiracy charges. A conspiracy takes two or more people, to commit a crime, and to have taken any steps to further that crime. Selling the address, especially understanding Jack is intending to assault Kyle, is a step in furtherance of the crime.
However, depending on the particular court, county, etc, conspiracy is not the easiest to prove up and get a jury to understand. This would also require that a) Jack carried through and assaulted Kyle, and b) during the investigation it was revealed John sold the address, and c) the prosecution can prove that happened.
