"A definite must! The outcome was so much more favorable than what it could have been. I am so thankful to Kirk Tarman for the outcome we had for our case."

I am so thankful to Kirk Tarman for the outcome we had for our case. Unfortunately, as a family, we found ourselves with an attempted murder charge. Kirk, Evan, and Sabrina gave 110% to our case. The office was always able to answer our questions and fight hard in court. The outcome was so much more favorable than what it could have been. We were looking at 12 years to life and because of Kirk's staff and his diligence we were given a year with time for good behavior. That was just amazing! I really appreciated how helpful Sabrina (paralegal) was. Sometimes you may feel like you're asking too many questions. Sabrina always made us feel comfortable with asking and gave amazing facts to help our case. Kirk always responded back quickly and kept us in the loop. I highly recommend this law office for all your needs.

"Great representation"

I retained the Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates to represent me when I got a DUI. Not only did the attorneys and staff give me peace of mind, but they kept me informed and were able to negotiate a great resolution in my case. They also handled the DMV Hearing for me and helped me protect my driver's license. The level of professionalism, attentiveness, and helpfulness that the attorneys exhibited was outstanding. I would definitely recommend them for anyone who needs legal representation.

Kirk Tarman and his team we're very helpful and professional. He was honest when it came to my uncle's case. I would highly recommend them and if I we're to ever need legal services I would go to Kirk again.

"The level of service he provided far exceeded the cost."

For DUI you simply will not find a better defense attorney than Kirk Tarman. I was arrested for DUI and chemical test refusal, shortly after being stopped at a sobriety checkpoint. The chemical test refusal comes with severe enhanced penalties. To make matters worse I received a no-right-turn-on-red ticket about a month later. If convicted the ticket would have put me over the DMV maximum points allowed in a 12-month period (4 points). In the span of one short month, I was facing jail time and the loss of my driver’s license for up to 18 months. Kirk worked vigorously on my case. He poured a tremendous amount of time and resources in to my defense, both at the courts and DMV hearings. The level of service he provided far exceeded the cost. In the end he was able to get all charges – the DUI, chemical test refusal, and no-right-turn-on-red ticket – DISMISSED! Kirk was also very understanding, supportive, and encouraging through the process. Additionally, he has an awesome paralegal and administrative team – Jesse, Sarah, and Sabrina. When I lost all hope, they restored it. If you’re reading this post right now, you may have found yourself facing circumstances similar to mine. The best advice I can give you is to call Kirk immediately.

"Kirk showed interest and care from the very beginning until the end when we heard those amazing two words "not guilty"."

Kirk Tarman. Well only one way to described Kirk. Amazing human being and even a better lawyer. Kirk is not only knowledgeable and experienced in criminal law. But he has one element none of the other lawyers had: he "cared". Kirk showed interest and care from the very beginning until the end when we heard those amazing two words "not guilty". I strongly recommend Kirk Tarman he helped my family be whole again.

"Within two min's I knew I made the right choice."

To whom it my concern, Where do I begin, About a year ago I found myself in a horrible, and scary situation, I had committed a crime and was so scared and didn't know where to turn, I needed legal advice and quick....I found Kirk's # and gave him a call, embarrassed beyond words, I made the call, and that ended up being the best call I've EVER made... Within two min's I knew I made the right choice. He made me feel comfortable. At NO TIME did Mr. Tarman or his staff ever judge me!!! They actually care!! They were efficient, they were ALWAYS right on top of everything. I feel he did the best that he could do. The ENTIRE staff was amazing, taking time to talk to you when you are freaked out, Jess is such an awesome guy he really cared throughout this whole ugly mess, helping more then he'll EVER know!!! Mr. Tarman got my charges reduced BIG TIME!! It was the best decision I ever made. NO jail time just a small fine. I was so appreciative for everything they had done. I made the right choice, so if you’re thinking about hiring this awesome crew, don't think about it, be about it call now. You WONT regret it!!!!

I had the privilege to have Mr. Tarman defend me on a DUI case and was thoroughly satisfied with the defense I received from him. By being proactive throughout my case, he was able to help me save my job and helped motivate me to get the personal help I needed. I am happy to say I received a second chance at life and his defense helped me get started. I highly recommend Mr. Tarman and appreciated his hard work and honest approach in my case.

"Any time I had a question he was prompt and reassuring with his response."

I needed an attorney in Southern California, specifically, San Bernardino. I now live in Tennessee. I had some legal problems that had been hanging over my head for years. Every time a background check was needed for advancement in employment or my personal life, my past legal problems would pop up and hold me back from achieving my goals. I needed someone who could represent me from over 2000 miles away and someone I could trust. I found that person in Kirk M. Tarman. I had contacted over a dozen attorneys. They all wanted what I considered a huge fee, and would not make any promises as to how much they could help me. Kirk not only spelled out for me exactly what he would do, he said he could help me for a very reasonable (compared to every other attorney I spoke with) fee. He kept me informed and updated me almost daily. Any time I had a question he was prompt and reassuring with his response. I believe this was more work than Kirk had expected yet he never said that to me. He gave me his word he could help me and he did. He exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Kirk to anyone needing an attorney.

I have to admit I was a little apprehensive at first because the reasonable price but I couldn't have asked for a better attorney in the end. Thanks Kirk.

"You should hire them! You won't regret it!"

Let me begin by saying that I was arrested for drinking and driving with an open container in my vehicle. My case was more difficult to beat, since this was my second DUI and I had refused breathalyzer and blood tests. I thought refusing would be in my best interest, but later found out criminal charges are more serious for that. I can honestly say I am so blessed to have found The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates online where I researched their law firm prior to hiring them. I had very little hope to beat my case, since this was my second DUI, but this law firm took very good care of me. Since the day I met with them they made me feel very comfortable and hopeful.  They are not only knowledgeable but very honest, reliable, professional and always kept me updated with my options with possibilities. After a couple of months they got my DUI charges DROPPED to only an open container!!! This law firm has saved my career and thousands of dollars. I will STRONGLY suggest you hire Kirk Tarman for any of your attorney needs. Thank you guys again, and I will be forever grateful for all you have done for me. Many blessings for you and all your hard work and dedication you put into my case, as I’m sure you all do for all your other clients. I usually don’t do online reviews, but I want to put the word out there because everybody needs to know how awesome of a team this law firm is along with all their staff.

"Excellent attorneys!"

I found myself facing a DUI and scared to death. From the very start of the initial consultation, Attorney Kirk Tarman put me at ease. They handled my DMV Hearing and the court proceeding and truly fought for me. They were always attentive to my phone calls and emails, keeping me informed. They were able to get me a reduced charged so that I do not have a DUI on my record. I am so thankful to have retained them for my case.

"I will not hesitate on calling Kirk Tarman"

Thank you, Kirk and Jesse. I had high blood alcohol content (0.22) but almost a year later, Kirk was able to get it down to a wet reckless. The case took much longer than I had initially hoped but it was due to the fact that Kirk kept fighting for me and he definitely went all in for me. Although Kirk may not be available himself to answer the telephone or answer your emails (which is expected anyway), throughout the whole process, his assistant Jesse has always been reachable by phone or email and he will try his best to help you and if you have a question for Kirk, Kirk will either call you back directly or Jesse will get back to you very promptly with the answer. It has been a real pleasure working with them. Hopefully, I will never need a DUI attorney again but if I do, I will not hesitate on calling Kirk Tarman and I would strongly recommend him to friends and family if they need a DUI attorney.

UPDATE: With the DUI criminal charges having been dismissed about a month ago, Mr. Tarman went on to represent me at the DMV Hearing for chemical test refusal. We recently received the decision back from the DMV. The one-year driver's license suspension was SET ASIDE. Kirk, thank you for saving my license and career.

"Helped me in so many ways"

Just got a DUI few months ago even though my BAC% was below the legal limit so I called this Law firm to go over my options since I'm not familiar with the process and I don't want it to come up on my record due to employment reasons. They were quick to do what they promised me including getting the DUI charge dismissed, that really helped me in so many ways

"They're intelligent and capable, but more importantly they're personable"

A friend suggested Kirk to me a few months ago. I am so relieved I decided to go with their services. They're intelligent and capable, but more importantly they're personable. I feel like they look at me like a real person and they listen to what I tell them. Their staff is really helpful, too. They're always so courteous, polite, and straight forward. So grateful my friend recommended them.

"I couldn't have made a better choice."

I highly recommend The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates if you need representation in a criminal matter! I hired them to represent me in a DUI and I couldn't have made a better choice. I had never faced criminal charges before so the entire situation was nothing less than frightful for me. Mr. Tarman removed all of the stress and worry that I was experiencing and put my mind at ease so I could go on about my everyday life without falling apart. They negotiated a great result in my case too! You should definitely hire The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates if you are facing a criminal case.

"They took full control of what was best for me."

I have epilepsy on March I had a seizure and had my drivers license suspended. The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates were excited to take on my case as it was unusual and new. I felt very comfortable when I was discussing my options and case with them, as they took full control of what was best for me. I won my case and driving privilege have been reestablished.

"This law office knows what to do when it comes to DUI. My family is thankful for the hard work they put in and so am I."

I was charged with a DUI Nov. 2014. Called the office and hired them right out of the gate. My job and family was depending on them and both did not disappoint. They were able to get the charges dropped from two counts of DUI to a single count of public intoxication. I got my CDL back and was able to get my job back. This law office knows what to do when it comes to DUI. My family is thankful for the hard work they put in and so am I.

"They really do care about their clients and will not stop fighting till they get you the results you want."

I had a difficult case that I was trying to fight from outside the state it was turned down twice. Once by the DA, and the second time by the judge, they continued to fight for me, and got the results I was looking for. They really do care about their clients and will not stop fighting till they get you the results you want.

"They are professional, make themselves available, and thankfully gave me a much better experience with lawyers than I have been accustomed to."

After a really bad experience with another lawyer with a similar case that is still ongoing where I haven't seen any progress for over a year I was weary of hiring another lawyer and experiencing something similar. A month after hiring The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates I got a positive result on a case that other lawyers I called said would most likely be futile in even trying and for a cheaper price too. I didn't even have to personally go to court . I would definitely recommend them for any legal problems you would have. They are professional, make themselves available, and thankfully gave me a much better experience with lawyers than I have been accustomed to.

"What made Mr. Tarman stand out from other attorneys I've had in the past was his willingness to fight for me by approaching the judge while court was in and out of session. My family and I would recommend Kirk Tarman and his firm."

I have had several attorneys since 2012 from San Bernardino county represent me on a serious felony charge l got when I was eighteen. I wish I could have had Mr. Tarman from the beginning. He represented me in June on my fourth violation of probation. Even though he did not necessarily defend me on the case he did represent me in court and got me what I believed was the best possible outcome. He made sure that I had everything possible prior to my court date to convince the judge to give me the least amount of consequences. He prepared an excellent and thorough character report and plan for me after my release from jail. He saw me three times while I was in custody for a month, which is a lot compared to other attorneys I've had and also compared to other people in jail. Kirk and his team were in constant contact with my family keeping them up to date and answering any questions they had. Unlike some lawyers, Kirk is easy to contact and if he is unavailable, his partner at the law firm helps however he can. What made Mr. Tarman stand out from other attorneys I've had in the past was his willingness to fight for me by approaching the judge while court was in and out of session. There was three times where he talked to the judge then came and talked to me and then went back to negotiate a better deal. That's a lot even for a private attorney. A public defender would not even go back once to ask for a different deal with the judge or D.A. You basically "get what you get" with a public defender. At the beginning of my court date, the judge initially wanted to send me to state prison for three years, after Kirk negotiated with the judge I was able to get re-instated on probation and be released that day with 30 days of work release. 3 months later Kirk is filling the paperwork for me to get an early termination off felony probation(with the help of my probation officer of course) and also filling for my felony to be expunged. Me and my family feel very confident in this law firm and Mr. Tarman. All his fees are very reasonable and have even been cheaper then other law firms. Not to mention the quality of his services is significantly higher. My family and I would recommend Kirk Tarman and his firm if you need a criminal defense lawyer especially in San Bernardino County where Kirk has worked with and is known by the judges and district attorneys. In my opinion, this is a HUGE advantage. Do not go with the public defender and just be another case number on their desk because you will get screwed and not be able to do anything. Thanks, Kirk!

I couldn't be happier with the service we received from this law office. From the very beginning I could tell that these lawyers knew a lot about DUI cases and throughout our court days they went above and beyond to make sure we were prepared for whatever might come our way. They definitely prepare you for the worst but get you the best. They covered every single base and we got an amazing outcome. I would recommend them any day.

I had the pleasure of working with Kirk, and his office regarding my DUI case. I was originally charged with 2 felony counts ( vehicle codes 23153A & 23153B). Kirk's office was very professional and was able to negotiate with the District Attorney get my conviction reduced to a 1 count misdemeanor. Throughout the whole ordeal of two court dates, he and staff was available for any of my questions and concerns.

"Best Law Firm Around"

I had the extreme good fortune of retaining the services of The Law Offices of Kirk Tarman & Associates. My situation was two cases. One was 18 years old it was a speeding ticket that was never resolved and had a warrant for my arrest $1700 dollars on it. The other was a DUI that was 11 years old which I did not finish the classes on and my probation had been revoked. I explained the situation to Kirk and they Guaranteed me they could get the cases dismissed and likely shorten my DUI classes. I quickly retained their services. The flat fee was both affordable and well worth every penny. I could have been facing jail time on these two cases. Well, long-story short, Kirk was able to get both cases dismissed as they promised as well as get all fines and penalties dismissed and no classes needed at all. The matters were resolved. And I couldn't be happier. I am a free man without worry. Thanks again, Kirk.

"Excellent DUI attorney!"

Mr. Tarman was outstanding in representing me and my case...a second DUI is a serious offense and I was worried and scared but Kirk took an enormous amount of stress off my back...his background and experience gave me the utmost confidence that he would take care of me...and he delivered...he was able to get me a sentencing that allowed me to keep my job and continue working.

"Best Decision"

Going with The Law Offices was one of the best decisions I've made in a while. I had been charged with some misdemeanors that I didn't feel were fair. I primarily worked with Kirk. I found him to be extremely professional and knowledgeable. Not only that, but he was really relatable; I felt like he really took the time to hear me out. My case took several months to sort out and in that time, I always felt like I was up-to-date on what was going on with my case. He managed to get everything dropped and I am so grateful; he saved my job in doing so. I would recommend his law office to anyone looking for a good attorney.

"I would heartily recommend him to anyone"

Kirk is a standout in criminal law defense and I would heartily recommend him to anyone that needs an advocate.
