Gregory Caplan focuses his substantial attention as a San Fernando, Van Nuys, Burbank, and Glendale Criminal Defense Attorney.

While many San Fernando Valley Criminal Defense Lawyers spend no time on their clients’ cases prior to court, Mr. Caplan, however, takes an aggressive proactive approach to his clients’ cases. He typically contacts the prosecutor before a case is filed, to request an “office hearing,” or other “criminal filing reject,” to avoid charges being filed altogether.
Mr. Caplan emphasizes Early Intervention with requests for City Attorney Alternative Programs, rather than criminal filings, which allow some people charged with criminal offenses, to obtain dismissals of their cases. Mr. Caplan is extremely knowledgeable on the subject of City Attorney Alternatives, such as “Diversion,” and has handled numerous cases as a San Fernando Valley Criminal Attorney where clients who were charged with a crime were able to obtain “Diversion” and dismissals. Mr. Caplan’s clients have received dismissals in Theft charges, Burglary charges, Weapon charges, Drug charges (including Marijuana), Vandalism charges, Hit and Run charges, and Domestic Violence and Battery charges. San Fernando Valley Criminal Defense Attorneys who are not familiar when and where these “Diversion” programs are available can cost you an opportunity to have your charges dropped. (Case resolutions depend on individual facts and circumstances- individual results vary.)
