Paul Henry Neuharth | San Diego Criminal Lawyer

Edward Peruta, et al v. County of San Diego, largest 2nd Amendment case since Heller, on its' way to SCOTUS. Seeking to allow the 2nd Amendment application outside of the home.

Returning all of my phone calls the day that they come in, treating all of my clients the same way that I would like to be treated and dressing as I would expect my own attorney to dress.

Reputation, accomplishment and the ability to communicate clearly.

Knowing the people that you are dealing with day to day, prosecutors, Judges, Probation Officers allows you to tailor your case to the other Criminal Justice participants and maximize results.

I have the ability to answer all of the clients questions but to provide a clear strategy going forward with expected results I need an in-person conference.

To make the phone conference more productive I really need a copy of the court/bail paperwork prior to the phone conference so that I can have it reviewed prior to getting on the phone.

My results in sentencings, Writs and Motions speak for themselves. I am a resource for the local legal community, speaking for different organizations and nation wide continuing legal education providers.

Making my clients very happy with the decision that they made to engage my services.

I am an avid outdoors-man and cattle rancher spending time in Central Oregon.

I have been a past President for the La Jolla Bar Association in 2009, and am a current Board member.
