I got my first DUI Feb. 2020. Never been in any trouble. I was scared & didn’t know what to do. I googled “DUI attorneys” & I entered my information. Less than 2 mins later I get a call from the Law Offices of Richard Wagner. I spoke with a very nice lady named Rasha who reassured me that I was in the best hands & that he could take my case. I never go with the first option but I did in this case & the price was very reasonable & it was the best decision I ever made. Mr. Wagner was right on my case & handled everything I needed to have done. He appeared at my DMV hearing & got that dismissed. Now I’m just waiting on my court case. He communicates very well & always makes himself available to answer any questions you may have. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer. He has very good experience & knowledge. Thanks Mr. Wagner…you’re AWESOME!!!!
“Dear Mr. Wagner, I’m writing to thank you for being there with me every step of the way through this scary and stressful time. After my entire case was dismissed I feel as though my life is back on track, and I can continue living my life with peace in my heart. I KNOW that my case wouldn’t have had the same outcome if I hadn’t relied on your expertise and professional representation! I cannot recommend you more highly, and will be forever grateful to you!” SGS, Laguna Beach

“Mr. Wagner goes the distance for all his clients. He is dedicated, educated, aggressive and smart when it comes to defending his clients. He is a great coach to have on your team.” Jonathan Kelman Criminal defense Attorney
Attorney Richard Wagner came to my rescue … He also went above and beyond and completed my expungement paperwork and filed it for me. I really appreciated him … Richard Wagner is a professional who is very good at what he does. I am very thankful he was there for me. S.S., Austin, TX
Mr. Wagner is the type of attorney that promotes our profession. He is 100% dedicated to his clients and relentless is his advocacy of their interests. Not only does he work tirelessly to ensure his clients rights are protected but he also has that personal touch which engenders trust and confidence from his clients. Rich Wagner is the real deal. James Fox Child Custody Attorney
Dear Mr. Wagner, I’d like to express sincere thanks to you for working with my father this ordeal. My family and I appreciate your time and expertise, all the more so because we are all unable and unqualified to offer him any tactical support in this matter. Sincerely, J.R
“Richard Wagner is one of the hardest hitting trial attorneys that I have had the pleasure and honor to know over the course of my career. Richard will never settle for second best when it comes to securing a favorable outcome for his clients. When a prosecutor is unwilling to be reasonable when negotiating a plea agreement, it’s go time for Mr. Wagner. He will not hesitate tell the judge to call in the jurors and get the ball rolling for trial. Moreover, Richard is one of the most prepared defense attorneys that I know. When he comes to court he comes armed and ready to go with pretrial motions and a plan of attack. If you’re looking for an attorney who will really go to bat for you and protect your rights at all cost, then Richard is the attorney for you because he brings the fight to the prosecutor. I cannot recommend Richard highly enough.”
Daniel Kann Criminal defense Attorney
“I endorse Richard Wagner as a great top choice when searching for your lawyer in DUI or regular criminal law.”
Mr. Wagner is a tough, devoted advocate for his clients.
Mr. Wagner is superb advocate for his clients. He has a mastery of the law and more than that he knows how to effectively present his client’s case. Mr. Wagner is respected and liked by the prosecution which allows him to achieve successful results for his clients. In shore, he is an effective advocate who achieves successful results.
I considered Rich a mentor when I became a lawyer. He is an excellent attorney. I have also worked with him on many cases and would absolutely recommend him.
I highly recommend Richard in any DUI case. I personally know him and his work. He has a great knowledge base of DUI and the science behind it, and when you combine that with the fact he is a “client’s lawyer” who is sincere and easy to talk to, his client’s are well represented.
Mr Wagner never ceases to amaze me. Some of the toughest situations have been worked out by his ability to smooth things out and enter into dispositions that appeal to all the parties and the best deals possible for the accused client.
Rich Wagner is a talented and zealous advocate for his clients. Moreover, he is ethical and forthright. I have seen him in action and I would not hesitate to refer those in need of legal counsel to him.
Richard gave me legal advise when dealing with an intellectual property case. He took the time to write up a legal contract that will save me now and in years to come. While working with him, he shared some stories about different cases. If I could describe Richard in one word, it would be “ethical”. If he can’t help you, he knows people who can. He also responds quickly.
Richard Wagner is a lawyer who seems to know everybody. I was in the courthouse with him one day and I could hardly get a word in edgewise and the clerks and bailiffs kept saying hello. I think that is a good quality to have in a lawyer. It shows that he knows the court and you will not be home-towned. I would not hesitate to hire him.
Very grateful to Richard Wagner
I am very grateful to Richard Wagner. He did an awesome job defending me throughout the trial. In court, Richard talked about the law, science, facts of case, and convinced the jury to find me not guilty. Richard definitely knows how to successfully defend a DUI charge in trial. Thanks to Richard Wagner, the DUI charge against me has gone away like it never happened and I got my life back.
A family member was facing 5 serious counts against them, one carrying a strike if convicted. Richard worked with the court, judge & prosecution & 2 of the charges were dropped, including the charge that carried the strike. He negotiated a sentence that was much less than expected & took care of everything as the family was not able to attend. He called before the court date to explain the process & hopeful outcome. He called directly after the deal had been made, giving a detailed account of what occurred & how our family member was. His work is impressive and his experience & expertise was top notch. Anonymous
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. Anonymous
Rich is the type of lawyer that can’t sleep until he knows he has done everything in his power to help his clients. In the arena of criminal law, there are two types of lawyers. Those who care enough about their clients to continue to fight the good fight, and then there are those lawyers who don’t. Rich operates with empathy and respect in pursuit of the best resolution available – and is the most technically proficient attorney I know.
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.
He is very efficient and effective. His knowledge of Driving Under the Influence of DUI cases is awesome. I use him for advice on DUI cases or just to handle the case for me.
Rich Wagner is the top DUI attorney in Orange and LA counties. He has spent his career, first prosecuting and now defending DUI’s and other criminal defense matters. If you are in need of a top DUI attorney or criminal attorney, you should give him a call, it certainly will make a difference
I’ve recently had the pleasure of working with Richard on an out-of-state criminal case. His knowledge of the law is impressive; his ability to calm rattled clients equally so. Richard is dedicated, thorough, and persistent in his pursuit of justice for his clients.
I want to tell you that you did an outstanding job. You really did.
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.
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 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!
I want to thank you for the professional and effective service that you provided during the past two months … 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 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.

Rich is amazing. My husband was charged with Violation of a court order aka gang injunction. From the start Rich expressed his interest in this case, and he wasn’t lying. He was as passionate about taking this case to trial as much as we were. His communication and dedication to this case was beyond what we expected. He is definitely an attorney you want in your corner. Absolutely superb. Needless to say, Rich worked his magic; the charges were dropped. We couldn’t be more happy.
Richard, I went to the DMV today and everything went fine. I now have my restricted drivers license, so they were just yanking my chain the whole time. I appreciate everything you have done. I hope you have a Happy Holidays.
Thank You Richard you’re one of a kind!
I would like to say that The Law Office Of Richard Wagner went above and beyond any other criminal defense attorney I have ever met. I called him to get a price on a Sunday and we ended up speaking for two hours before he even gave me a cost for my defense. The price was fair, balanced and completely justified! We spoke about my circumstances, he asked about the entire situation leading up to my charges and he asked every detail in order to make sure he could defend me properly. In the 8 months that it took to get my case settled Richard never left me hanging, his personal assistant was amazing and I never felt alone once through the entire process. My case was settled to my satisfaction and I can say without any doubt that I would recommend anyone looking for expert representation and an empathetic attorney this is your man! Thank You Richard you’re one of a kind!
Words can not express how impressed and pleased I am with Richard’s business. He allowed me to make payments, which was huge for me because I did not have money saved up at the time. His communication was always very informative and he always responded within a timely manner to any of my questions I had. I was extremely nervous, worried, and stressed out about my case before I hired Richard. Once I hired him, he literally took all of that away. I honestly do not know what I would’ve done without him, and I will definitely refer him to friends and family if they ever need an attorney. If you are looking for an attorney that really puts his clients needs first before his own, Richard Wagner is the way to go!
Dear Richard:
I got the news I won my DMV Hearing today! I really appreciate you. I am so grateful to have been blessed with your firm! So Awesome!
You have helped bring peace in an otherwise chaotic situation for my family and I. I thought that this mistake may have costed years of my family’s well-being.
Richard is truly an expert – one you would need in your difficult time. He will clearly provide you steps by steps of how you could prepare yourself at best. He has guided us through our darkest moment and each and every of his suggestions, each documentation he asked us to prepare and bring along during a presentation period turned out to be all things useful and positively welcome for the case. We could bring up all of the plus side out at light and the result is that we are able to minimize as well as to mitigate the possible adverse effects that could have jeopardized our case if we did not retain Richard as our attorney and consequently we wouldn’t be as prepared for the best as we were. Unbelievably, our case was dismissed!!!!!! We owe you our life gratitude!”
Hiring attorney Richard Wagner was the best thing I have ever done for myself. He took a very scary time in my life and turned it into a positive experience with a wonderful outcome. He never judged me – he supported me and made me feel everything would be ok. And it was.
Greetings Richard;
I want to thank you and I wish you the best. You are a good man and sound attorney. I feel you will continue helping others out of a bind. I am grateful to you for your help.
Thank you! It should suffice to say that I am very pleased indeed with your handling of my case, without your work the chaos surrounding these events would greatly interfere with my work and personal life. I am entirely grateful to you.
