Read how our expertise as an Orange County criminal defense attorney has led to high client satisfaction and positive case outcomes

I had interviewed many attorneys to discuss my very unfortunate situation that set by someone I knew. Hieu Vu was the most honest, caring and the professional attorney with compassion and empathy I ever interviewed. HE REALLY HAD A HEART. His fees were very reasonable and he will fight for you not just for your dollars but because he cares for his clients... I would strongly recommend him if you feel your life is up side down. Things happen but we learn to become a better person.

Hand down the best attorney I have ever worked with!!! My friend recommended Hieu because I needed to expunge something I did when I was young and dumb. Hieu is very humble, personable, and made me feel very comfortable. He's surprisingly funny too. Something not all lawyers are / can do. His pricing is very reasonable and he updated me on everything frequently. I highly recommend him!!!!

Great lawyer I got 2 d.u.I.'s back to back and he managed to keep me out of jail, worked with me all the way through it and gided me through the process. Not expensive and gave me a chance on making payments what more could I ask for in a lawyer!!

Client-Focused Service

““To the client, every angle is important, there’s a number of questions, and each person also have their own worries. Some will need a person to listen to them while others do not want to come into the office at all.. At the end of the day, it’s more than just delivering legal results and avoiding penalties in court. I put a 110% into every person I work. I strive to make sure everyone knows what is going on and is kept in the loop as the case goes on. The practice of law is more than just getting the results in court.” -Hieu Vu

Why Choose Us as Your Orange County Criminal Defense Attorney?Effective Strategies to Win Your Orange County Case

As a Trial Lawyer my record of success is because of my philosophy on fighting cases. This means everything should be looked at and all the tools should be used. There are a variety of defense strategies to approach each type of case. .

Inaccuracies of Field Sobriety Tests (FSTs)

Inaccuracies in police reports

I am one of the few DUI Trial Lawyers who are is certified in Field Sobriety Tests. This means I have taken the same classes as the CHP officers. In addition, I am also qualified to take the instructor course for the purpose of teaching new law enforcement officers in administering the field sobriety testing. Because of this I know Field Sobriety test should be examined with audio and video from the officer’s body camera and compared withe the police report. Mistakes will be found in the administering of the test.

Driving under the influence of Drugs (DUID)

For cases of DUID (influence of drugs), I look for the amount that is therapeutic and take into consideration the history of the user. Simply taking prescription drugs does not mean you are under the influence.

Driving under the influence of Drugs
Violation of Title 17 Regulations on Blood and Breath Testing

Violation of Title 17 Regulations on Blood and Breath Testing (Not All Blood Tests are good)

It is not all just about the Blood Alcohol Level. Blood test and Breathe Tests might show you are over the legal limit but that does not mean they are accudrate.

When dealing with blood alcohol tests, blood samples needs to be retested for blood alcohol concentration, adequate sodium fluoride and anticoagulant and fermentation if the client suspects something is wrong with the results. Breathe testing devices also needs to be examined for maintenance issues as there are laws to keep them maintained properly. If a breathalyzer was used in your case then the maintenance and usage logs should be obtained.

When everything seems to be falling apart, it’s important to have an attorney on your side when facing the court system.
