What San Jose clients say

San Jose office

“I was faced with two misdemeanors that triggered a felony probation violation, not to mention the toughest DA in the South bay. The Felony probation alone would have easily fetched 9 months. In addition, the DA wanted an additional year for the two misdemeanors. However with Rabin Nabizadeh, taking the lead on this case along with Ross Pytlik and their tenacious manner, we have been able to settle this entire case with more favorable terms than i would have ever imagined. Because of their hard work and unwillingness to give up on me, i’ve been able to keep my professional position with my employer and am able to continue to pay for my children’s university tuition. Needless to say, I would immediately recommend Summit Defense to any friend that faces any kind of legal issue.”

“Ross really came through for me on my case. Never being in this type of situation he knew exactly what to do. I got whatever forms and documents he needed and handled the rest. Honestly could go on, but just a great job all around!”

Wilbur H.

San Jose office

“I needed a lawyer and Rabin was exactly what I was looking for. He was upfront with me from the start, didn’t try to overcomplicate things or overcharge me like other attorneys I’d spoken to. He handled everything professionally, and we got a great outcome. Honest, straightforward, and genuinely there for his client. Delivered like he really cared. Would absolutely recommend him.”

Luca D.

San Jose office

“I highly recommend Mr. Ross to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney. From the beginning, he treated me with respect, explained everything clearly, and always kept me informed throughout my case. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication helped achieve a much better outcome than I expected. He truly cared about my situation and fought hard on my behalf. I am very grateful for all of his hard work and would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Ross to anyone who needs an experienced and trustworthy criminal attorney. Thank you, Mr. Ross, for everything you did for me.”

Aman S.

San Jose office

“I hired Rabin for a defense matter, and he proved to be an exceptional attorney. Throughout the case, he was professional and I always knew exactly what was happening with my case. Ultimately, results matter, and he delivered the positive outcome I was hoping for. Highly recommended!”

EC C.

San Jose office

“Rabin and the team at Summit Defense are absolute professionals! Going through a domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) case is one of the most stressful experiences you can face, but from day one, Rabin made me feel like I was in capable hands. He was thorough, strategic, and completely dedicated to protecting my rights. Thanks to his hard work and courtroom expertise, my case was dismissed. I couldn’t be more grateful for the outcome and would highly recommend Summit Defense to anyone needing elite legal representation.”

Rabin Nabizadeh is my lion!  Sitting in that cell hearing him passionately argue for bail, I was so relieved my husband hired him.  At the end, I got a misdemeanor.  Thank you Rabin for saving my family.
