I highly recommend Givelle Lamano and her team for your legal needs..I contacted Givelle for a legal situation I needed assistance in and she jumped right in. Her counsel from the beginning to the finish took care of my dilemma with a positive outcome. A must when u need a lawyer you can trust.

Givelle Lamano is the best. Her attention to detail and how much she cares about people really show when you meet her. I knew within a few minutes of meeting her that she was smart, direct, and trustworthy. If a friend or family member ever gets into trouble, her firm is at the top of my list.

Manjula Martin is phenomenal. Very detail oriented and stays 5 steps ahead of any possible outcome. I highly recommend her

Without a doubt, Givelle Lamano knows her in's and out's of the criminal legal system and how to maneuver every aspect of it. Her diligence and work ethic is like no other! Some individuals are lawyers for the status quo or rather the pedigree that comes with it whereas, Lamano, is a lawyer because of her passion to defend and question the status quo.

They are simply the best. They are so detailed very orgnised and will response to you within minutes dont not look farther for a lawyer. Great service lovely people and they treated me like friend, brother and like its their own people. I really can't thanks them enough for all their hard work. They care about you not about making more money of you.

I have witnessed Givelle in court challenge the judge, district attorney and anyone else who stood in the way of justice for her client. But Givelle is not just fierce and a force to be reckoned with, she is also level-headed, reasonable and compassionate. She knows how to get the best results for her clients - whether she needs to fight it out in court or use a softer approach and negotiate with the prosecutor. Without a doubt, I would recommend Givelle Lamano, she is the first person I would call if I was in trouble!

I had a very good experience with Givelle Lamano and her team. They were friendly and straightforward; they don't use gimmicks or dishonest tactics like other cheesy attorneys. Givelle walked me through the process in a way that was unpretentious and easy to understand. I did not have to step foot in court at all, and I trusted that she and her team were handling my case well. They kept me updated every step of the way to minimize stress, and I was never left wondering about the status of my case. In the end, the resolution of my case was fair - and I had peace of mind that I could move forward with my life. Ultimately, I found that the price for Givelle's services was fair, and that her team was competent, knowledgeable, and honest.

As an expert, working with Givelle has been a pleasure. We worked together on a homicide case and it was a great experience. It is important for consumers to realize that experts have a choice of who they work with - and having an attorney who keeps a good relationship with local experts means the consumer has access to those experts on their cases too.

Thanks to Manjula, Paulina and Justine for being extremely flexible and helpful you made sure i understood every step of the process and worked around my schedule i would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance very professional and understanding. Thanks again

Lamano Law Office is the best. They know all about DUI law and really care about their clients.

Working with Givelle Lamano of the Lamano Law Office was something to enjoy and endure. In the beginning she was on me about getting things straightened out so I would be the best representation of myself as I could be. She pushed for things others would not have getting me into programs that were not court ordered in order for me to be better and do better. My case was long and took a lot out of me and my family for almost 3 years, yet she was always there to take questions and Anwser through text, email, phone and in personal meetings. She's not some public defender that will forget your name. Givelle cares for all that are impacted. If you chose to say no on something's she can see where you are coming from and understand and respect your choice. Maybe a little nudging but if you say no then it's no. I truly thank her for everything she has done for me and I respect wholeheartedly who she and her company is.

Great law firm and an amazing group of bada** women who know what they are doing. If you want your case handled in the best way this is who you go to. Doesn't get better than Manjula and Givelle! You both are incredible.

Great team,dependable , and honest.

Having Legal issues?

I truly recommend Givelle and her team. They made things easy and worry free.

Lamano law is professional and knowledgeable! They are easy to talk to and real.

I have known Ms. Lamano for nearly a decade. She is a highly skilled attorney and I highly recommend her.

Givelle is one of the most competent and compassionate legal professionals I have worked with. She and her team at Lamano Law will work tirelessly to get you the best possible outcome, whether you are fighting a criminal or civil case. I know that people are always in good hands when I refer them to Lamano Law Office.

Givelle and her team responded quickly to me and gave me very good advice. They definitely know their stuff. I would recommend using them to anyone.

I have known Givelle for more than 10 years. There is no one in the legal industry that advocates for their clients more than she does. I refer clients to her without hesitation.

I came in asking for a friend. Ms. Lamano was friendly and truthful. She was easy to communicate and really listened to what I had to say about my friend. Helping out my friend I tried calling other lawyers for advice in Oakland, and they were all trying to scare me, didn't want to listen to the details and simply gave their retainer fee. Lamano Law was different. Thank you for the honest help. My friend and I really appreciate it.

Excellent representation. VERY knowledgeable. Family oriented. The staff is EXTREMELY pleasant and helpful. The expertise, knowledge and application of the law makes Lamano Law the best in the field. This law firm takes the fear out of the process. Expectations were above and beyond anything I could have imagined. If you need legal representation and you don't use Lamano Law you may be underrepresented!
The entire team is 10 star worthy

Quick at responding to clients and so knowledgeable!!

Givelle at Lamano Law is the best criminal defense attorney you will ever find in the Bay Area. The only difference between Givelle and a pitbull is lipstick. I was in an unfortunate situation and needed someone who wouldn’t sugar coat my options and keep it straight with me. Givelle is the type who is honest and will tell you first hand whether your situation is the type where you need an attorney or if you could handle it on your own. She is understanding of everyone’s situation and the best part about her is that she truly doesn’t make you feel beneath her. Thank you Givelle and Lamano for everything you have done!

Seriously the best. And you can tell that this criminal defense law firm is top notch. They spend time understanding your case and are honest about their advice. Definitely call them.

I can't express how grateful I am for Lamano Law Office. They are professional and tremendously helpful. I hope I never I have to rely on them again, but if I do I know who to call and would recommend them to anyone.

Givelle and her team are amazing! From the time I picked up the phone for assistance in my son’s case, they were with us every step of the way. All calls, texts, emails were answered and unlike our other Attys who charged us every time they picked up the phone, Givelle was not about the $ at all. We never felt rushed and she was very patient in answering all of our questions. My son’s case took over a year and during that time, we felt very emotionally supported. We received favorable results and now can breathe easier. If you or one of your family members need an amazing defense attorney, hiring Givelle and her team will be the best decision you’ve ever made. Highly recommend them!

MJ is soooo awesome! Very professional and informative. Communicative and upfront with you at all times. Works with you on payment plans. Just plain awesome to work with. Was really stressed out and she guided me through the whole process. Very appreciative all of her efforts. Will definitely recommend / work with her and her team again. Thanks MJ!!!

Good people helping good people become better people. Law is a team sport and together this team is impressive how it works with everyone involved to complete task after task to support its clients. Thank you for your help and guidance Lamano Law Office.

Manjula, Givelle, and Alanna are an amazing team of lawyers and they did an extraordinary job representing our family. They are bright, honest, thoughtful, and compassionate and they brought our case to justice swiftly. They delivered on the BEST possible outcome for our family and I could tell they genuinely care for their clients each step of the way. Thank you Lamano Law Office!

I highly recommend Lamano law. They are quick to respond and take the time to explain everything and make sure I fully understood all my options. All my questions were answered and even somethings I wouldn’t have thought of. They put the clients best interests first and made me feel so much better.

Giving Givelle and her team a 5 star rating because that’s as much as it allows me to! If I could give them more I would because they definitely deserve it! Givelle and her team are amazing! They work hard and everyone should know it! They are very thorough and it is obvious they care about their clients. They always make you feel comfortable and make sure you are up to date with everything going on behind the scenes. You will always feel completely taken care of every step of the way. Hopefully you never get in trouble but when or if you do, this is the team you want in your corner! Very thankful that I found the Lamano team. Super happy and satisfied with the outcome of everything and it couldn’t have been handled any better. Thank you Lamano Team!

Givelle and her team are amazing. I have never been in trouble and was absolutely clueless and terrified as to what to do next. The Lamano team went above and beyond to make sure I felt completely taken care of every step of the way. Their genuine empathy, concern and patience for their clients put them in a league of their own. I’m very thankful that I found the Lamano team. I doubt that I would’ve had as great of an outcome for my situation with any other group.

For what happened, I got exactly what I asked for. Very accommodating and they actually listen to you. They take the time to do thorough reviews and get you the best offer possible for your situation. I would highly recommend Lamano Law Office to anybody.

Givelle is a super hero/lawyer! She explaines everything with depth and being upfront about all the scenarios that can happen with your case. She is honest, clear and willing to work with you. This firm is for the people and will do their best to get you through the scary legal system. Very thankful that we found Givelle Lamano.

We found Lamano Law on the internet and after our first meeting with Givelle, we knew it was the right place to be. You get what you pay for. They were thorough, courteous, responsive, empathetic, and professional. My son never had to appear in court but was thoroughly briefed on all proceedings and made well aware of the potential consequences of his actions. Lamano Law handled everything and got him the best deal possible. I would highly recommend this small firm of tenacious women for all your DUI needs!!

(Translated by Google) Lamano Law Office is the best!

(Original)
Lamano Law Office is the best!

The entire staff is very polite . I would not have had it any other way . Givelle answered all my questions respectfully and upfront which is how it should be .This firm gave me exactly what I expected and exceeded those expectations. Paulina and Justine worked with me thoroughly and gave me peace of mind

So life happens and the Lamano Law office received a call. From the get go, Givelle took control of the situation. There was no beating around the bush, it was solid go time. She took the situation and relayed her knowledgeable and experienced professionalism. She even went the whole 9 yards and said that even if you don’t go with us, this is your first few steps in the process. As a man of business, we stopped researching and hired the firm. Throughout the process myself and my loved ones had constant updates, prompt returned calls, and clear concise information. Her firm will support you tooth and nail in your situation. Do yourself favor and look no further. You owe it to yourself.

I met Givelle in October 2017 and since my first meeting with her she has consistently been approachable, available, honest, curious, and prepared every time I have contacted her via email, text, on the phone, and in person. This means that I have gotten more out of each interaction with Givelle than I was expecting because we were able to continue off our last conversation and move closer to my ultimate goal. Ultimately, Givelle is goal-oriented and able to take the time needed to get to the root of the matter. So, if you need something done, do it right and get it done with Givelle.

Thank you so much Lamano Law office. U really did a good work with my case.

They are awesome with everything. They Explain everything very clear for u and the They contact you with any update and They always ready to answer your question in the same time u call, taxing or email.
Thanks a lot again for all of you and good luck.

I know Givelle for years. She is an excellent criminal and DUI defense attorney. If you want to hire a very good one, consider hiring Lamano Law.

My husband and I just got off the phone with this attorney. For zero dollars she spent a good amount of time with us asking questions and making sure we understood the best and worst case scenarios for our legal situation. She explained how getting an attorney would benefit us but also let us know what a public defender could do as well. She also gave us referrals to other attorneys who might cost a bit less, but whom she trusted. Yesterday we spoke with another guy on here with the "best" reviews. He mostly talked about himself and had no details. I would trust her referrals over these Google reviews which can be manipulated. This lady is the real deal. Thanks!

Very helpful, answered all my questions kept me up to date on my case. Would def recomend!

Can't say enough good things about them.. they did a great job

From the initial conversation with Givelle, I felt at ease, and even though she recommended I not hire her, I did anyway for peace of mind. I highly recommend Lamano Law if you're looking for someone to not only help but to also give you detailed information and leave no question of what needs to be done or what is expected of you. Thank you Givelle!

THE best attorney. Bottom line. You can immediately tell she cares about you and in the end she gets the job done. Hire her. You won't regret it.

After researching lawyers in the area, we luckily found Givelle. She has been a blessing to us. She educated us in all aspects of the area that pertained to our concerns and gave us peace of mind. The fact that her practice continues to grow and expand is a testament to her dedication to her profession and the clients that put their trust in her. We don't wish anyone any legal woes but should you need a lawyer, she's the one to call.

Ms. Lamano is among the best criminal attorneys. She and her firm are highly recommended.

Extremely helpful in obtaining the information and help I needed, even before hiring.

Best attorney ever. Got the job done. Charges dismissed

Atty. Lamano was very responsive. I called the office in the morning and she was in court at the time. She gave me a call that same morning (I suppose she had a break during court) to talk to me about my case. She took down all the details of the case and explained all my options in detail. The call took about 20min total. We scheduled a time to check back in one week and she was very punctual. From there she gave me options regarding next steps and what I can do myself to save money before retaining her. The fact that she was more concerned with my case instead of getting hired is a testament to her unselfish character. I felt I could trust her because of this, and I didn't felt pressure to hire her right away because she gave me other options I could do myself. I would definitely recommend her.

This is my first time hiring Givelle Lamano as my attorney and she has done an outstanding job on my case. I would highly recommend Lamano Law to anybody that has a criminal case. She got me the best result that she and I were both happy with.

Givelle not only took the time out her busy schedule to do a thorough consultation, but she is the most honest, intelligible, and a pragmatic lawyer I've had the pleasure of working with. She is top quality and very knowledgable in criminal defense, in my particular case, a DUI. She made the process stress free and answered every question and concern. She no doubt comes highly recommended. She is straightforward and willing to state facts and possibles outcomes. She's the lawyer you want representing you.

Givelle has been a godsend. From my first interaction with her, she was straightforward, caring, and knowledgeable. She and her team kept me informed and made sure that I adhered to all my deadlines. Furthermore, as my matter may need further lawyer guidance, Givelle has helped me in researching other law firms. I only wish that I could hire her and her team for any matter involving the law that may come up in the future. She is truly an amazing professional to work with.

Givelle and her team are outstanding. I highly recommend working with her. Communication was straightforward and prompt and the outcome was exactly what I wanted. her and her team are experienced and realistic. Those two things are so important and I'm so happy to have worked with them.

Givelle is honest and straightforward with you, a clear communicator from day one. She will do everything she can to get you the best possible outcome, and her team, Paulina, Ebony, and Jo-Anna work just as hard and communicate just as well. The whole office makes sure you are well-informed and comfortable with what is going on in your case. I felt taken care of and that someone was truly on my side. Also, I even had a police officer comment that I must "have a really good lawyer" when he saw the outcome of my case (how much community service I was sentenced to). Would recommend this law office to everyone.

Givelle is the one. If you need someone who will represent you, who understands you and cares, I am telling you right now, Lamano Office is the one.

I am a fellow attorney and Givelle has been an invaluable asset for me. She is extremely well versed in the law and will use that expertise to fight for you.

Givelle is a highly caring and compassionate person. You'd want her on, and by your side.

Givelle is a colleague of mine in the legal profession. I've known Givelle for about two years and I am extremely impressed by her professionalism, her skills as a criminal law attorney, and dedication to her clients. Givelle's work ethic, selflessness, and passion for helping others is truly inspiring. Highly recommended!

The absolute best!! This was the best decision I made after getting charged with a DUI. My charges was brought down to a wet wreckless and only 4 sessions (4 days) of DUI school. My license was never suspended. If I never got this firm to represent me, I would have had my license suspended for a full year and I would have had to attend DUI school for 6 months. Givelle is honest, straight forward and a clear communicator. She will do everything in to getting you the best possible outcome.

Givelle gave me her best advice and knows a lot on what to do when it comes to court. I recommend her for all court questions and cases.
Thank you Givelle

Givelle is a cut-to-the-chase lawyer who knows her stuff. If you need someone on your side, you'll want Givelle. Not only does she know the law, she understands your state of mind at that moment and guides you to help you make the right decisions. Very impressed.

Givelle Lamano and her team could not be more helpful in such a stressful part of my life. With knowledge, honesty and attentiveness to my case, she gave me all the news with ease, both good and the bad which allowed me to feel safe. She gave clear advice along with constant updates and made the process much less intimidating and could not be more thankful. Seriously, a BIG thank you! It was the best call I could have made.

I would highly recommend her professional assistance to anyone who is in need of help.

This was the best decision I made after receiving my first DUI back in September of 2015. I could not express what Givelle and the team at Lamano Law Office has done after she accepted my case and represented me. I don't want to get into details but let's just say I'm extremely happy with the outcome. From September til now, Givelle has been very supportive, thorough, kind, patient, respectful, and honest (tell it like it is) throughout my case and I like to say thank you so much for your outstanding work. Givelle Lamano is "The Best Decision."

I am very glad to have Givelle Lamano lawyer representing my case. She is honest, professional, and held accountable of what she said. Givelle kept me update to date through the whole process even I was out of country for a period of time. She took my pressure off my shoulder and took care of my case. I highly recommend her services. Thank you Givelle!

Excellent attention to detail and wonderful client relationship.

Givelle is amazing. She has always been super responsive and a wealth of information. When I had a question, she not only responded on her "off time", but quickly got me not only an answer, but a direct link to another professional in her arsenal that had even more in depth knowledge. I would highly recommend Givelle.

When I went in, I felt really comfortable and like they were definitely on my team. It was really calming and very informative, and was much better off than before hiring her.

Phone consultation was great. She answered all of my questions (even the ones I didn't know I had). She was very honest with all of my options.

Ms. Lamano and her office are very dependable people. Her and her team are responsive, easy to understand, and helpful. I was recently had a case and the charges were dismissed and it's all thanks to them.

This woman handles it! Givelle knows her passion and it is definitely in criminal defense. One of the most intelligent people I have met and fully OWNS the cases she takes on. What I appreciate most is that she really cares about her clients and takes time to understand them. If you have an issue Givelle will handle it!

Givelle is a childhood friend whom I have not spoken to in nearly 30 years. I found out she became a criminal lawyer and could not have been more proud of her. However, I never thought in my wildest dreams that it would take a serious matter to finally reunite. All I can say was she never made me feel like time had passed. Right away, she put me at ease, explained what could potentially happen (good and bad), educated me on the process and even followed up a few days later. I live in San Diego and Givelle could have easily swayed me to use her, which I would have due to her raving reviews. Instead, because of her integrity and compassion for others, she recommended that it would be in our best interest to find someone in San Diego in order to save on legal costs. She even provided me with questions I should be asking the lawyer so I wouldn't be blindsided with unforeseen costs. Any other attorney would care less. Thanks Givelle for all your support and genuine spirit!!

The best decision that I ever made was choosing Givelle. After too much frustration from another lawyer, I found Givelle on Avvo and chose her based on her good reviews. This was the best choice I ever made, from the day she took my case. she explained every detail showed confidence on how to get the best results. I was charged with four counts, and after nine months, the case went to trial. Givelle and her team represented me in the court, they really put a fantastic fight in that court room She was so helpful during all the process. The best results finally came when the juror came with a not guilty verdict on all four counts, it was the best day ever for me. Givelle will put all the energy and effort to get the best results. I will highly recommend her to anyone looking for a criminal defense lawyer.

I loved the services my mother and I received right when we walked through the door of Lamano Law at her San Fancisco location. This included a professional staff who interacted in a warm , welcoming, and friendly manner as they offerd us coffee and/or water (Smart Water! My favorite!). When Givelle Lamano introduced herself immediately I was comforted by her positive energy and positive attitude. She went well over the half hour that seems too be then norm for free consultations and she went to work right away. I never once felt rushed and most importantly I knew she, Givelle, was listening to me and her feedback brought my stress level down a few nothes!!. She went out of her way to contact another attoeney of mine before I even retained her, and was able to provide valuable insight. Lamano Law "uses a holistic approach" stated Givelle which I appreciate, and right then I knew she would get the job done. Thanks again For you hospitlity and everything else. Angela

I found attorney Givelle Lamano on yelp and all the reviews were five stars. When I met Givelle, she really took her time to explain me how the "court system" works step by step. She is very intelligent and she knows how to deal with legal problems. The most valuable part of Givelle is that she genuinely cares about her clients and cases. She's really passionate with her work and she works really hard. She is very responsive through emails. If I need any legal help in the future, she's going to be the only attorney I would ask for.

Very rarely do you come across professionals who combine intelligence, integrity and fierceness. These are the qualities I would look for and found in criminal defense attorney Givelle Lamano. Ms. Lamano is highly smart and ethical. She fights for her clients. In addition to possessing great legal skills, she is committed to working out the best possible resolutions for her clients all in the while handholding them and making them know they can rely on her all the way. I highly recommend Ms. Lamano as an attorney.

Givelle Lamano is a remarkable criminal defense attorney and I would highly recommend her to anyone! She is very personable, helpful and is always ready to answer any questions you may have. Givelle is incredibly knowledgeable and will fight to help you with your legal problems. She will even break down the entire legal process to you to ensure you have a full understanding of what to expect. I liked her direct and honest approach in informing me all the potential outcomes that could occur with my case. Thanks to all of her advice and hard work, I had a great outcome in my case!
