3 Best Criminal Defense Lawyers in Hayward, CA

We met Philip Schnayerson more than five years ago during a tumultuous time for our family. My husband and father of our children faced serious felony charges and Mr. Schnayerson orchestrated the best possible outcome that brought leniency from the judge at an extremely reasonable cost. Recently Phil's experience and influence was again paramount in having my husband's original count reduced to a misdeamenor and expunged. My husband is free of the stigma, able to move on with confidence and begin a new career. Honestly, Phil's commitment to my husband's case, to see the whole person, and not his error in judgement, gave us hope and a favorable resolution. We are very grateful to Phil and his team!

Phill is really honest, and gets a lot of respect in the courthouse. If you're looking for an experienced lawyer with influence then he's the best choice and Carla is very knowledgeable and helpful too. Come to them when you're looking for honesty and results.

Mr. Benavides was very helpful throughout my whole case. He made sure to explain everything I needed in regard to my case and he was very professional. He is knowledgeable in both law and immigration matters. Not only were the documents very organized and well put together, but he and his law firm team were very quick throughout every step of the way. I would highly recommend Mr.Benavides!! Thank you again for all the support and help that I and my husband received during the whole process! I live 2 hrs away from Mr. Benavides’s law firm but it was worth it because everything worked out perfectly!

He seems to be very honest because he could find information and just with that. I would justify his fees. Instead, he provided me with resources to find out by myself, and if needed, he can represent me. He also explained the process. Others were charging me upfront, and he (Mr Sergio) just a consultation fee. Therefore, in the case that I needed a representation in court, he would be the one I prefer.
