Welcome

Orange County, California, Criminal Defense Attorney

When facing serious criminal charges, your very life or that of your loved one may be at stake. Even misdemeanor charges can have lifelong consequences. You cannot afford to take chances. You need the lawyer that other lawyers and judges trust with their loved ones so you can stop worrying and get your life back.

When dealing with serious criminal charges, you want a compassionate lawyer who provides a welcoming environment. At the Law Offices of Jacqueline Goodman Rubio, located in Fullerton, California, we are dedicated to providing an office setting that is both caring and relaxing to clients throughout Southern California.

On many occasions, a highly skilled attorney can make all the difference. It can mean having your children returned to you following an improper sex crime accusation. It can mean getting a drug or alcohol addicted defendant rehabilitated without incarceration and on to a life of sobriety and freedom, often while saving the criminal record. We take every client's situation personally and seriously. We never forget what an awesome responsibility we bear when we have our clients' lives in our hands, as we do in every case.

Consequences of a Criminal Conviction

Attorney Jacqueline Goodman Rubio established our female-run law firm to help juvenile and adult clients throughout Southern California whose lives have been turned upside down by a serious criminal charge, such as DUI, sex crimes or drug crimes. For juveniles, a conviction could mean institutionalization. For adults, a severe criminal charge could mean losing custody of children, incarceration, loss of job, social stigma and many other serious consequences. For those who are here from another country, convictions often lead to deportation or exclusion from the United States.

No Presumption of Guilt

Everyone, everywhere is susceptible to accusation.

Our firm has handled many cases that deal with sex crimes against adults and children, homicides, and other highly volatile accusations. We do not pass judgment.  You are innocent until proven guilty, even if members of the media and local community; and even your family, feel otherwise.

Aggressive Representation When Accused of Serious Crimes

Being known for winning trials means better plea bargains and more dismissals. The right lawyer can increase your chances of avoiding conviction or jail. We are a female-run firm recognized throughout the legal community for our success in handling complex criminal defense cases related to drug crimes, violent crimes, white collar crimes, sex crimes and DUI. We are never quick to seek a plea bargain if the best interests of our clients would be better served in the courtroom.

Track Record of Success

Winning well-publicized and difficult criminal tirals has garnered Ms. GoodmanRubio a distinguished reputationand the respect of the bench and bar. 

As we have shown countless times over the past 14 years, no case by the prosecution is airtight. In fact, there is always an opportunity for a reduced sentence and perhaps even an acquittal. An aggressive, detail-oriented approach can often result in discovering a piece of information or evidence that can spare you from an otherwise lengthy jail sentence.
