Hi Rich,

I just wanted to thank you for everything. I really appreciate it!

M.G., Los Angeles, CA

Dear Mr. Jack Gold,

I hope you remember me, regarding my son. I just wanted to say thank you sincerely for taking time off to read what I forwarded you. I remember you saying "I am sitting here on my porch and have read everything." Well that was very meaningful to me because that was your time of rest. For you to do this for a complete stranger speaks volumes about your character. What impressed me most is your honesty. You are a most honorable man.

I remember telling you, "You are an answer to my prayer," and you responded, "I am not all about that prayer stuff." But I am convinced you were an answer to my prayer. For 5 days I was crying and filled with emotional and physical pain for my son. He is working so hard as a highly intelligent, diligent computer surveillance airman in the Air Force. He is moving up in the military as they see his potential. This one sided allegation would have definitely destroyed his future at 20 years old.

I am a Christian and I believe God places people in our path for reasons. You were placed in my path to console my heart as a mother. I sincerely want to thank you for this as you are such a wonderful man above your profession.

Sincerely and with all my heart,

Olga Alarid

For everyone to see,

I speak for my family when I say Los Angeles Attorney, Jack Gold did an outstanding job helping my little cousin recently on his 2 cases & needless to say, my family and I were worried sick about what to do and how to do it. But Jack calmed us down by rapidly accessing the situation. He quickly developed a defense strategy for each and rapidly brought each to a swift conclusion with better than expected results. He went beyond the call of duty by taking a sincere interest in his immediate and long term well-being. He was always In-Touch while first making himself available on a Saturday Date Night when our Crisis started and continuing with pertinent updates as each case progressed. Knowing the Legal Playing Fields, he maneuvered their hurdles& and brought home the best results that we could have hoped for. With his help, all is well now and I recommend him mighty. And you know I am going to keep his number, because he has the answers and I am going to have More Questions.

Sincerely,

Uncle Donovan

I want to tell you that you did an outstanding job. You really did. J. Caulder, Huntington Beach

Dear Richard: I want to thank you for representing me over the last several months. This has been the worst time of my life, especially when I have done nothing to warrant the charges leveled against me. I truly felt victimized by the false charges, accusations, and slanderous lies. Having your representation brought a tremendous feeling of peace to both my wife and I. Your positive attitude and wise council, along with your intervention with the school district, relieved us of a great deal of anxiety. I have already recommended several other of my acquaintances to you. Again, thank you for all you have done for me. After our last conversation, I now feel confident that I can get on with my life. It gives peace of mind to know that you are there if this matter ever rears its head again. Thank you. D.R.G.

There are 3 reasons I recommend Richard Wagner if you are arrested for DUI. First off, he is a straight shooter. Never did he sugar coat my situation. Second, he handled everything while keeping me informed and walked me through everything as it progressed. Third, he got me the result - No DUI!!! Thanks Counselor! G. Miller, Valencia, CA

When I got the news that the police department detectives had been to my home and left a note asking me to contact them immediately because I was facing serious charges, I was scared. I am happy that I was referred to you Mr. Wagner. It meant a lot to me that you met with me immediately and were available throughout the case. Your fees were very fair and reasonable and worth every penny! J.J. Glendale, CA

Richard: I want to thank you for the professional and effective service that you provided during the past two month's ... the result (Case Dismissed -forgery &; second degree commercial burglary). Your care and professionalism made it abundantly clear that I would be cleared of any wrongdoing. We went through a lot between August 3 and September 21. At some points I was on the verge of breaking, you would see me in pain and you would tell me, "let's win this thing" or "be patient we are going to win"; "just go home and get some sleep." You lifted my spirits. I don't know what to say, you saved my life. We made it. We came a long way didn't we? Again, thank you for your help, your kindness and your support. You are a good and noble man - (Karma works). T.P., Barstow, CA.

After being notified that a warrant was out for my boyfriend's arrest, he luckily got into contact with you, Mr. Wagner. It looked like the whole world was against him and he was accused of doing some terrible things that we knew were not true but no one in the court system believed him, except you. You fought for him and turned the case around. Thank you for your help. And God Bless You. D.T., Bellflower, CA

I recommend Richard Wagner. Richard handled my Criminal Defense matter. Mr. Wagner helped me out of an impossible situation. He was forthright and sensitive about my situation, and used his knowledge and expertise to get me the best deal possible. L.H.S., Palm Springs, CA

Great Representation. I recommend Richard Wagner. Richard handled my DUI / DWI matter. From our first meeting with Richard Wagner I knew we had the right attorney. He explained our DUI case and options to us very clearly. Once we signed on with him he took control and did all the work. After a couple of months the plan he laid out for us unfolded flawlessly which ended up in a case dismissal. We can't thank him enough. Lakewood, CA

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Ronald Cordova, Irvine, CA: Rich Wagner has a keen wit, which serves his clients well in settling cases with prosecutors; he also has a keen knowledge of the law, which serves his clients well in trial.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Rodney Nosratabadi, Fullerton, CA: I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Wagner during the early years of my legal career. We tried a co-defendant matter wherein the prosecutor distorted the police officer's testimony and pointed all blame to the defendants. On cross-examination of the police officer, Mr. Wagner was able to paint a different picture. He discovered and exploited the officer's failure to follow through with mandatory protocol and impeached all the prosecutor's witnesses. He then passed the torch to me and paved my way to impeach the prosecution's subsequent witnesses. Mr. Wagner's level of professionalism and the zeal with which he advocates his client's rights is unmatched by that of others and is a testament to his character not only as a great counsel, but also as a compassionate and understanding friend of the client.

Endorsement from fellow lawyer Kevin Ondrey, Wadsworth, OH: I endorse this lawyer's work. Attorney Wagner is an excellent California criminal defense attorney.

He has resolved hundreds of criminal cases, resulting in favorable resolutions for his clients, including acquittals, dismissals, and reductions of charges.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: James Sweeney, Mission Viejo, CA: I endorse this lawyer's work. He is professional and thorough and this results in highly effective results for his clients.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Troy Houston, Santa Ana CA: Rich Wagner has a well-deserved reputation as one of the finest DUI attorneys in Southern California. In the time I have known Richard, he has always been professional and helpful when I sought his advice or assistance. Richard has always established a great rapport with his clients, always treating them with respect and giving them the full benefit of his knowledge and experience. I second the notion that if you need a criminal defense attorney, it will be difficult to have a better attorney on your side than Richard Wagner.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Thomas Wallin, Irvine, CA: I am proud to endorse Richard. He is an excellent criminal defense attorney. He is a bright and dedicated lawyer and uses everything possible to get his clients the best results.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Rosemary Amezcua-Moll, Orange, CA: I endorse this lawyer's work. I have had the benefit of knowing Richard for over 14 years and can speak to the caliber of person and, equally as important, the attorney that he is. Richard has always handled himself in a professional and respectful manner and does his best to achieve the results his clients need. Anyone in need of criminal defense will be fortunate to have Richard by their side.

Endorsement from Fellow lawyer in community: Jeffrey Bullingham, Irvine, CA: Richard is far too humble a guy to say so (or even think so for that matter), but in the 7 years I've been practicing law, I've never met a better lawyer. He's the rare attorney who doesn't treat people like he's "a lawyer" and on top of that is one of the most decent, down to earth, guys you'll ever want to meet. He's the best of the best and a nicer guy you will not meet. I would recommend him to all.
