Grateful Client
I had an urgent situation come up and called Kar Thik, an attorney at Shouse Law. He responded to me immediately and was of tremendous help. He obtained a court document I needed in one day and made sure I was updated on my situation often. Within two days my issue had been addressed. I had a case with them several years ago and was thrilled also at that time with the outcome and the attorney. Kar Thik is conscientious, professional and caring, as is his assistant Rosie. I hope to never need an attorney again, but if I or anyone I know does I will refer them to Kar Thik in an instant. Thank you Kar Thik and Rosie!!!!!!!!

Karthik Krishnan at Shouse Law Group was great. I was charged with a DUI a few years back and wanted to get an early termination of probation, since it was affecting my work life. Most law firms I talked to weren't very convincing, they were all straight forward with me and said there was very little to no chance of winning this case. after talking to Karthik, I felt like Shouse Law group was the right choice. Karthik was an excellent attorney, he always answered answered his phone, he always knew exactly who he was talking to and what the case was about, made me feel as though he actually cared and wanted to help me out. In the end Karthik did not take no from the judge as the answer, he really fought for me, and was ultimately successful in winning my case. I would highly recommend this law firm and definitely recommend Karthik Krishnan, amazing attorney.

If you're reading this, you're in trouble! I thought I could handle it myself and researched days, weeks, months only to find a few glimmers of hope to use in my defense. Ninaz found these and more within a few hours of reading my file.
She also possess' another rare trait, she is fearless of the prosecution and unafraid to fight for your right to a fair trial. Other attorneys may promise this, however not all are so willing, almost eager to point out when the other side is not exactly playing fair. In my particular case, discovery of a particular report took close to 5 months!!! Ninaz fought for me and my case has been dismissed!
Thank you Ninaz and Shouse staff!

From the start we knew we had found the right law firm. Mark Russ handled the case immediately and took action. We are very pleased with the outcome. We are stress free and can not thank Mark and Shouse law group enough for helping us out. Thank you for everything. I highly recommend Shouse Law group

I have never had a great experience with a lawyer before. In fact quite the opposite.
I researched and found Mark Russ who is Leo's colleague at The Shouse Law Firm. He is who I started out with. I've never been in trouble before and I was terrified when I found out I had a bench warrant out for my arrest due to a problem I didn't know I had from 6 years ago.
Nobody including the lawyers could believe how harsh the DA was being. Wanting me to serve 4 months in jail I had crazy charges I wasn't guilty of ( 4 including hit and run DUI etc) Mark handed my case over to Leo as he thought he was better equipped to help me.
He had a good working relationship with the judge and DA ( who is hard as nails)
I'm getting ready to go to the UK and needed this sorted before I could move on.
My court day came I had already agreed with a deal I was content with. When I met Leo at court he completely floored me. Unbeknownst to me, he kept working on my case after I agreed to terms. What he had waiting for me was so BRILLIANT! He arraigned things I didn't even know were possible. He got all but one count dropped and also talked the DA & Judge into agreeing that it was acceptable for me to do my community service at ANY reputable not for profit organization in ENGLAND. I'm also able to take my course online from anywhere in the world.
I can't believe he went so far above and beyond the best I could hope for.
Leonard Manalo is a Top Notch negotiator and all around amazing lawyer. I don't think anyone has ever exceeded my expectations as much - it's hard enough to find people that are barely competent.

Shouse law group is the best criminal defense group I've had. They are good hard working lawyers that will fight for you until the end. Leonard Manelo was on top of everything and he knows exactly what to do. I can't thank him enough for fighting and pushing for my great results. I'd recommend them to anyone.

Mark was extremely helpful and I felt that he really cared about helping me.. it's hard to find lawyers that actually Care about their work... amazing law group and all his college's are just as helpful and well informed as him.

Mr. Poblete is an excellent attorney. I would not hesitate to refer him to anyone who needs a good representation.

I had the unfortunate luck of obtaining a DUI this year back in May, my family hired Shouse Law Group. The attorney that has taken on my case is Mark Russ! Mark is truly hands down the BEST ATTORNEY I have EVER had! He called promptly too introduce himself, he didn't stop there he gave me his direct cell phone number and said if I had any questions at all too not hesitate too call or text him. I have called/texted Mark on MANY occasions and he ALWAYS gets back too me extremely fast! Mark was also able too have all my charges DROPPED COMPLETELY! I can and WILL tell you that no other law firm out there will go to the extent that Mark Russ has gone for me too protect me and my rights! I will always refer people too this law firm no matter the case THERE THAT GOOD!

I HAVE HAD THE WORST EXPERIENCE WITH LAWYERS !!!
Until I found Leo Manalo at the Shouse Law Group.
NOBODY INCLUDING LEO had ever seen such an offer for a first time DUI. I had never in my life been in any kind of trouble with the law. I'd had 2 speeding tickets in my life that were paid on time. I don't even normally drink. The DA wanted me to do maximum jail time. I am fully aware of what it feels like to be living in a nightmare.
I researched many different firms and attorneys online and first spoke with Mark Russ. As the case progressed he handed the case over to Leo who he thought was better suited for the job.
I had confidence in both of them but I was still terrified. I couldn't believe it was all happening to me. After many months of talking and going back and forth I finally agreed to a deal.
Court day came and I was a nervous wreck. I hadn't had a great deal of contact with Leo so imagine my SHOCK when I arrived and met him outside to discuss the case before we saw the judge.
I was in SCHOCK because unbeknownst to me .....
Leo had not stopped with the deal I agreed to, he pushed on until I only had 1 of 4,charges to contend with. I never thought anyone would go so far above and beyond what I expected as he had.
I cannot express my thanks to him enough.
In this day and age it's hard enough to find someone that will do the bare minimum - I NEVER EXPECTED LEO TO SURPASS ALL OF MY EXPECTATIONS!!!
Especially after I agreed to a deal that was nowhere near as good as I ended up with.
Leo made things happen that I didn't know were possible. He knew I wanted to leave the country and even arraigned for me to take online classes and do my community service in England !!! NO JAIL TIME he pushed on past what I agreed to settled for and casually surprised me with the best deal EVER!
A mere thank you isn't enough.
I hope that anyone reading this doesn't hesitate to put their faith in the Shouse Law Group and Leo Manalo. They truly work as a team and do every last thing they can for their clients.
Don't take a chance on a lawyer that doesn't do every last thing they can for you. He fought for me like I was his family.

Everyone is highly professional and squared away. Ninaz is a champ in the courtroom! 5/5 would hire again without hesitation.

Ninaz is highly professional, organized, and talented. She is very personable and easy to talk to, but she will also fight hard for you in court. I was accused of rape and she was a blessing by my side in trial.

I had a very successful experience with the Shouse group on my son's drug case. The original case was handled by John Murray. He was able to reduce the sentence to a reasonable level. I used the Shouse group to finalize my son's case in regards to probation. Attorney Karthik handled the case and was wonderful. His attention to the case and follow up were great. I deal with lawyers on a daily basis. He is outstanding in comparison. Great experience with the attorneys and the Shouse group!! Thanks

Great service and very helpful!! They went above and beyond what was expected!! Thanks!!

Professional and most importantly, understanding of your needs

Spouse law group was very helpfully to our family.
Thank you

They were very knowledgeable. They guided me step by step in terms of what needed to be done. Above and beyond accomodating my needs. Thanks for getting me through this tough time!

Genuine, professional, prompt and excellent service!

These guys are awesome. Genuinely kind people that are knowledgeable and will help you in your time of need.

These attorneys are very dedicated and will fight to get the best results for you.

These are the most dedicated criminal defense attorneys you'll find anywhere in California! They provided advicewhich was invaluable. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs help

My attorney for my alleged Hit & Run case is Leo Manalo. I was wrongfully accused and was summoned to court. My friends recommended me to Leo, who've successfully helped them fought and cleared their record of DUI charges. Leo was attentive and informative throughout the entire process. I was impressed by his knowledge and professionalism, especially when he persuasively pleaded my case to the judge and DA. Leo explained all the options and routes that is available to me. Needless to say, the reason I'm giving a 5 star review is because the judge did not issue me any jail time and only gave me a few days of community labor instead. Plus, the legal fee was fair. Look no further, and give Leo a call if you are in need of legal help in criminal defense! I highly recommend it!

This is by far the best law group in the state of California, my family hired the Shouse Law Group when I had the unfortunate event of obtaining a DUI, my attorney is Mark Russ he is hands down one of the most hard working, caring, passionate, and willing too go way above and beyond for his clients!!!! He called me apon hiring the law firm gave me his cell and whenever I text him night day or weekend he is always quick too respond or call back. Still currently in a case but recently mark was able too have all my DUI charges dismissed what a blessing!

Best criminal and Dui lawyers in California! I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of a criminal defense lawyer.

great service! attorneys are very knowledgable and always available to answer any questions. very friendly staff that will help you feel at ease every step of the way!
