Criminal Defense - Practice Areas

Every case handled personally by Attorney Doan. No associates. No hand-offs.

DUI Defense

A DUI conviction means license suspension, job loss, insurance hikes, and possible jail time. We challenge breathalyzer accuracy, blood test procedures, and traffic stop legality. First offense or multiple DUIs, we fight for dismissals, charge reductions, or keeping your license.

Learn More →

Drug Charges

Drug charges carry mandatory minimums, prison time, and a permanent record. We attack illegal searches, challenge chain-of-custody, expose lab errors, and question informant credibility. Possession, sales, or manufacturing—misdemeanor or felony—we find the weaknesses in their case.

Learn More →

Domestic Violence

Domestic violence charges destroy families, careers, and gun rights. False accusations happen. We investigate witness credibility, challenge emergency protective orders, prove self-defense or mutual combat, and fight to protect your record, your custody rights, and your reputation.

Learn More →

Theft and Fraud

Theft convictions mean jail, restitution, and a record that follows you forever. We challenge identification, prove lack of intent, question valuation, and negotiate restitution agreements. Shoplifting to embezzlement, petty theft to grand theft—we defend your future, not just the charge.

Learn More →

Firearms and Weapons

Illegal firearms, concealed weapons, felon in possession, ammunition charges, probation violations, parole violations. These charges often add years to sentences or trigger immigration consequences. We challenge search and seizure, question possession evidence, and negotiate compliance solutions to keep you out of custody.

Learn More →

Expungement and Record Clearing

Been arrested but don't see your charge listed? We defend weapons offenses, probation violations, warrants, sex crimes, white-collar crimes, juvenile cases, gang charges, and more. If it's a criminal charge in Orange County, we've handled it. Free consultation to review your case and explain your options.

Learn More →

Restraining Orders

A restraining order can affect where you live, where you work, and whether you can see your children. We challenge the basis of the order, question the credibility of the claims, and fight to protect your rights, your record, and your daily life. Whether you're facing an emergency protective order or a permanent restraining order, don't face it alone.

Learn More →

Probation Violations

A probation violation can send you back to jail even if the underlying charge was minor. We act fast to challenge the allegation, negotiate with the court, and fight to keep you out of custody. Missing an appointment, a failed test, or a technical violation will be built into your defense before it becomes a conviction.

Learn More →

Other Criminal Charges

Facing a charge that isn't on this list? We handle the full spectrum of criminal defense in Orange County. If you've been arrested or are under investigation, the sooner you have an attorney, the better your options. Call us for a free consultation and we'll tell you exactly where you stand.

"College freshman son got 2 charges — underage drinking and fake ID. Nam could not have made me feel more at ease that my son was in good hands. Every stage of the process was explained and communication was top notch. My son had both charges dismissed and did not have to go to court at all."

— ANNE r. (From yelp)
★★★★★

"Hiring Nam Doan was one of the BEST DECISIONS I could have made. From the very first conversation, Nam made me feel reassured that my situation was in capable hands. He was extremely responsive, professional, and always willing to take the time to answer my questions. Nam never made me feel like just another case. He listened carefully, understood the details of my situation, and built a strong strategy that ultimately led to a very positive outcome."
