Lamano Law Office - Oakland Criminal Justice Attorney - Oakland (CA)

5 /5 Simon W: I want to start off by saying I RARELY ever leave reviews but the service I received today was so outstanding, I feel obligated to let people know about my interaction with attorney Givelle Lamano. I just got off the phone with her an hour ago and I’m incredibly grateful to have had a 45 minute consultation with her. From the start, she was warm, patient, and easy to talk to — someone who truly listens and cares. She made sure I felt understood and supported throughout the entire process, which made a very stressful time much easier to navigate. I have spoken to other lawyers prior to calling her and I did not get this type of excellent service. What really stood out was her honesty. After learning about my situation, Givelle actually told me that I probably didn’t need to hire a lawyer in my specific case unless I wanted that extra reassurance. That kind of integrity is rare, and it immediately showed me she wasnt in it for the money — she genuinely wanted what was best for me. She took the time to explain everything clearly and gave me all of my options without pressure. Her passion for helping people and her deep knowledge of criminal defense made me feel confident and at peace, whether I moved forward with legal representation or not. If you’re looking for a criminal defense attorney who is compassionate, trustworthy, and truly has your best interests at heart, I highly recommend Givelle Lamano. She’s one of a kind. I would give Givelle Lamano a 10 star rating if I could, but unfortunately it caps out at 5 stars! Thank you again for everything Givelle!

5 /5 Kulah Rodinho (Verpii): The incident happened over the weekend, and as most law firms were closed, I was incredibly grateful that Lamano Law was available. From the moment I called, the communication was excellent. The assistant was kind and professional, and Ms. Givelle Lamano even took time away from her family to speak with me personally — something I deeply appreciate. She made the conversation feel so natural, like talking to a friend. Even though she anticipated a favorable outcome and I didn’t end up needing full legal representation, she still took the time to explain the legal process, offer valuable resources, and show genuine concern. What really impressed me was that she followed up on my case without me even asking — that level of care is rare. If you’re looking for a legal team with integrity, transparency, and true expertise, Lamano Law is it. These are real, compassionate people making a difference one case at a time.

5 /5 Diana H: Givelle Lamano is amazing she really takes the time to explain everything and goes out of her way to make sure you understand everything. I really appreciate her because she answered all of our questions and helped me understand all these complicated things. I was so overwhelmed and stressed out but she really helped me feel less stressed out by educating me and just talking to us! Thanks you really are the best and someone anyone can feel comfortable and at ease talking to! Givelle is really the best!

5 /5 Nina Jehle: As a former Deputy District Attorney who prosecuted DUI cases, I had the opportunity to see firsthand how defense attorneys get the best outcomes for their clients. Givelle Lamano and her team at Lamano Law Office are among the top DUI and criminal defense attorneys in the Bay Area. Givelle is the best at explaining the process anyone faces after a DUI arrest, from what happens at the DMV hearing, to the differences between court proceedings and DMV administrative consequences. Her ability to navigate DUI charges, license suspensions, and criminal court proceedings is excellent. More importantly, what sets Givelle apart is not just her knowledge of California DUI laws, but her strategic and compassionate approach, including with her colleagues. If you are facing DUI charges, need a strong criminal defense, or want an attorney who truly understands how the prosecution builds its case, I highly recommend Lamano Law Office. Givelle and her team are dedicated, experienced, and simply the best at what they do.
