Standing up for You
Any criminal charge — from DUI/DWI and possession to assault and drug distribution — is a serious matter that may result in jail time, fines, mandatory classes and a criminal record if you are convicted.
I am David L. Fisher, a criminal defense lawyer who has been practicing law in California for more than 30 years. If you are in trouble with the law, you need an experienced advocate who will do what it takes to fight for your rights. Contact me today.
Personal Attention to Your Overall Interests
I take a holistic approach to the representation of criminal defense clients, treating them as people rather than simply nameless, interchangeable participants in the criminal justice system. I pay attention to the underlying causes of my clients' situation and get to know them as individuals. My approach enables me to identify solutions that other lawyers might overlook.
You can come in for your free initial consultation with me at my centrally located office, just blocks from the San Luis Obispo County Courthouse with free parking, or I can visit you at your home or in jail or juvenile hall if necessary. I am also available by telephone 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
My goal is to be an active, attentive advocate for your overall interests throughout the criminal justice process.
A Focus on Defending Young People
While I provide comprehensive criminal defense services to a range of clients in San Luis County and Santa Barbara County, I am particularly known as a skilled advocate for young people. I regularly handle many charges that disproportionately affect children and young adults, including minor in possession of alcohol and marijuana charges.
When it comes to children under 18, I have extensive experience in the juvenile justice system. I also represent many college students at Cal Poly, Cuesta College, Allan Hancock College and other local schools. I provide discounts on my attorney’s fees for students.
My younger clients are particularly vulnerable to the long-term consequences of a criminal conviction, including convictions for seemingly minor crimes. If you or your child is in trouble, don’t hesitate to contact me.
