Darren Kavinoky is not like any other criminal defense attorney.

Darren applies extraordinary personal devotion and professional skill to every client he represents. "I've successfully defended countless cases," he says, "but the case I’m working on at any given moment is the one that matters most."

CALIFORNIA PRACTICE, NATIONWIDE RECOGNITION
While The Kavinoky Law Firm maintains all of its physical offices in California, Darren’s reputation and expertise are nationally renowned. He has provided legal commentary on NBC's Today Show, CNN's Larry King Live, Celebrity Justice, and many local TV and radio shows. "It’s very gratifying to be able to share my experience with others," he says.

DEDICATION
It's not just the work he does for his clients; it's how he does it. No attorney would give out their personal cell phone number to their clients, would they? Darren Kavinoky does. "It drives my wife crazy," he admits, "but I don’t want people sitting around worrying when they could get answers right away. " This is yet another example of how Darren’s practice sets him apart from other lawyers.

HUMANITY
For Darren Kavinoky, it's not just about winning a case. It's about helping some clients turn their lives around. "My work is full of both public and private victories," Darren says. "I get to help people resurrect and reconstruct their lives. It's a privilege."

Perhaps the most gratifying victories are those in which The Kavinoky Law Firm helps a client reclaim their good name. Criminal convictions can have lifelong consequences, but Darren's expertise in post-conviction relief has allowed numerous clients to regain privileges they thought had been lost forever. "A conviction can be an incredibly painful event," he says. "Helping people clear their record and close that chapter of their lives is a very moving and powerful experience."

Darren also has an extensive track record of helping those in need of creative alternative sentences. Many criminal cases stem from underlying issues that can be effectively addressed, such as alcohol or drug problems. Darren empowers these clients to seek treatment, and to ensure that this is recognized by the courts in lieu of custody.
