How Ron defends a DUI at the West Justice Center
Westminster sits in the heart of Little Saigon, and the West Justice Center draws DUI cases from the dense coastal and west-county cities around it. Ron — who practices in English and Farsi — works directly with you from his nearby Irvine office, pressing on whether the traffic stop was lawful and whether the breath or blood evidence was collected correctly, while running your DMV hearing in parallel.
