Great lawyer and a compassionate human being

Sometimes you find yourself on the wrong side of the law even though you may be totally innocent, and it can be a harrowing experience. At such times you feel as if you have no control over your life and begin to question everything you know and believe in. This can leave you totally unprepared to face the legal challenges you are confronted with. I found myself in a similar situation when I was accused for a misdemeanor I did not commit. It was totally nerve wracking and I had no idea what to do. Thankfully I found Ian Wallach. He is an aggressive, relentless and knowledgeable criminal defense attorney, but at the same time extremely caring for his clients. He patiently and empathetically listened to me and made me feel very comfortable, confident and in control. He proactively pursued the case and arranged pre-trial negotiations with the DA and prosecutors to work out the best possible outcome. I definitely believe that I received the best representation possible and would highly recommend Ian for his professionalism, knowledge and above all a great attitude. Thanks Ian!!!

Amazing Attorney

Ian came in at the end of various criminal cases involving our son and essentially saved him a year of his life. Ian carries himself with energy and intellectual rigor allied to a compassion and understanding that one doesn’t always find in lawyers. He’s an amazing attorney and I would strongly recommend him to anyone in need of criminal defense.

Great attorney and great person

I live in New York State and my loved one is incarcerated in California. I was so fortunate to find a genuinely, sympathetic, caring and understanding attorney so far away. The pain and hardship of having a loved one incarcerated is indescribable. The fear for their health and safety. The enormous cost for food, clothing and phone calls. Then pile on the sheer terror and frustration over having a loved one moved from prison to prison.
My family member was moved to a remote part of the state were he and any visitors would be exposed to Valley Fever.
Ian was knowledgable, caring and understanding. He cared about my brother’s welfare when so many others did not. He understood the suffering of our family when other’s did not. And I never felt that he took advantage of our situation to further his personal gain, like so many attorneys have done in the past. I highly recommend Ian for his skill as an attorney and his character as a person.

Ian Wallach Review

Ian is a consummate professional with a bold, however, not cocky, presence & disposition—a primary function of anybody wishing to influence people, broadly; in the specific case of counsel, of course, this includes counterparties, judicial practitioners & adjudicators. It’s a transcendent gift to which few can lay veritable claim—something in which I have tremendous experience from the perspective of the business world & may therefore offer a qualified opinion in regards to effecting positive outcomes vis a vis the desired goal is for whatever aim is it hand. In the end, much of any successful outcome to legal issues comes down to judicial perception & likability of those representing their clients. So—preamble complete—Ian excels at deft navigation of what is our complex legal framework. He remains flexible when necessary, yet will bite your head off, should your contribution to the process be detrimental to your case (first hand account). That is why one hires a lawyer. That is why I hired Ian. He stopped me from blowing myself up, as a layman with just enough knowledge to be a danger to myself. I am serving no time. I have paid no fines. I have no convictions on my record. Thank you, Ian. I highly recommend him. Don’t let the soft picture confuse you—he is a legal cage-fighter.

Great to work with

Ian approached me after court for a DUI and hit and run charge. He was not pushy and didn’t ask about representing me, but sat down with me and heard my case. He offered me advice and educated me on the matter, I was pretty nervous and shocked about the additional charge as I was simply just moving my vehicle out of traffic, but he was very reassuring and easy to talk to. He said if I needed anything to contact him and left it at that. Since I was new to the whole court thing and had no previous issues with the law, I reviewed my options and decided to contact Ian to meet with him further. He was easy to talk to, quick to respond, and knowledgeable. My case prolonged for about 4 months and during that time I felt confident that Ian was doing his best in representing me. He was able to get the hit and run dismissed and I was charged for a DUI. I would recommend Ian to anyone who needed representation.

S. Bradford Review

Ian is the best lawyer I could’ve asked for. From the start, I knew I could trust him. He has made me feel comfortable and confident that he always has my best interest at heart. His attention to detail and passion is unmatched. He is well versed and captivating, which was extremely beneficial in swaying the jury to our favor. The amount of time he dedicated to prepping me and himself for trial was incredible. He is an extremely talented lawyer and anyone reading this should look no further. I promise you that, with Ian, you couldn’t be in better hands.

Honest and Generous

I asked Ian Michael Wallach a legal question that he has answered honestly and in details. And, he has generously put it under his first free consultation. He took his time to exchange few emails with me making sure he had all the details about my case and that I understood the answers fully. A great attorney, and a great man.
