About Christopher J. McCann
Criminal Defense Firm With Offices in Orange County and Los Angeles County As the sole proprietor of the Law Offices of Christopher J. McCann, I focus exclusively on criminal defense cases, specializing in representing those arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in court and with the DMV (see https://cjmdefense.com/dui-defense/what-happens-after-dui-arrest), as well as those charged with drug possession and sales, domestic violence, theft crimes (including petty theft, grand theft, embezzlement and burglary), criminal threats, assault and battery, forgery and fraud. To get more information about each of these specialized areas of defense, please see: http://www.cjmdefense.com. Inspired Defense of My Clients I take great pride and interest in fighting for my clients, but I also take a personal satisfaction in finding inventive defenses and creative solutions that take my client's personal needs into consideration. I have helped clients divert from "the system", and helped them to avoid lengthy periods of incarceration by finding dispositions that better suit their needs, such as pre-filing diversion, house arrest, electronic monitoring bracelets, drug and alcohol programs, mental health programs and many more. I enjoy finding integrative solutions that meet my client's needs. To see more examples of the successes I have achieved for my clients, please see: http://www.cjmdefense.com. Dedication to My Clients I have made several thousand appearances in criminal court in Southern California where I have fought aggressively in defense of my clients' rights. I treat each client's case with utmost care and attention because I know it is likely the most serious and frightening thing occurring in that person's life. You have my promise that if you trust me with that responsibility, I will fight for you because it is also my reputation on the line. See how I personally handle each client's case at http://www.cjmdefense.com. Committed to Personal Service When you hire me to represent you, you have my promise that I will personally handle your case from start to finish. No other attorney will appear in court or work on your case. I handle all court appearances. I do all of the work. No one else. When you call my office, you'll speak to me and no one else. I will personally return any unanswered calls within 24 hours. For more information on my personal commitment to customer service, please see: http://www.cjmdefense.com.
