From the moment I called and spoke with Derek, I felt connected and relieved. He was very responsive and listened to my situation. After my dui arrest, I was worried and concerned about what may happen. The team took a lot of that stress into their hands away from me. They kept in contact with me throughout the process and if I had questions they were quick to respond. After a few court dates, Derek gave me a call personally to tell me that the prosecution had dropped all charges. It was an early Christmas present a few days before Christmas. Thank you again to the team at Oliverson Law.

Unfortunately recently I was arrested for a DUI and more unfortunately this was not my first DUI. I did a quick Google search and found Oliverson Law. I filled out the online information card and got a quick phone call back. After one conversation I felt very comfortable that this law group knew what they were doing so I decided to go with Oliverson Law represent me. During this process this law group was available through text email and phone calls 24 hours a day! Anytime I had a question I could send a text and it was answered quickly. When my court date was approaching their team called me and let me know how to prepare for my in person court date. When my day in court came I felt prepared, every member of the team was on the same page. I am very happy With my experience and the outcome of my court case. I definitely recommend this law firm to anyone who’s looking for great representation with quick communication.

I recently had 2 dv cases along with a mip and failure to obey the police officer. Two different times in December. Derek and his team really saved me, all 5 charges were all dropped. They were able to drop my recent case when I was on probation, very rare. They know exactly what they are doing, I barely spoke to them and they handled it all on their own making me less stressed. Derek definitely has his finger wrapped around the courts around here! So for that I am so grateful.Thankyou

Excellent communication. They kept me informed the entire time. Whenever I had a question they were there to help with a timely response. My case was dismissed.

As a former car salesman for almost 15 yrs I will say we had a BAD rep. That’s how I thought of attorneys until I needed legal representation in a situation I had no control of. Not only did Mr. Oliverson fight for my legal rights, they were completely transparent. They answered any calls or texts from me almost instantly and more than once when I had a question or concern. Not only that, they were VICTORIOUS and made the impossible possible in terms of legal circumstances. If I EVER need any kind of legal help rather it be a civil or a criminal matter in life, I will only use this law firm. If I ever patent something I will see if they offer patent services for example. They were that good and left a different interpretation and experience of the “REPRESENTATION” aspect in a Court of Law. Not only was Oliverson Law amazing at their representation to me, they are a rarity in their trade and I recommend anyone living in the valley of Phoenix to retain their services only in civil or criminal matters. Again, they were that good. THANK YOU SO MUCH Derek

Oliverson Law was very punctual and timely. They handled my case in a timely manner. Having an advocate on your side is well worth the money. Also during the pre trial period it is nice to have someone take care of business for you to save on the embarrassment of going to court.

Even if a person is convicted of a criminal offense, there are still avenues to possibly appeal the conviction and/or sentence. Every criminal defendant in Arizona has the right to appeal their conviction. The purpose of an appeal is to ensure that no errors were made during the defendant’s trial process. These avenues include:
As a former police officer, prosecutor, and judge, Derek Oliverson and his team of attorneys have the experience necessary to help you with your post-conviction appeals.
Under A.R.S. §13-901.03, a violent crime includes any offense that causes or threatens serious physical injury or involves the use of a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument. Common examples include assault, aggravated assault, robbery, kidnapping, and weapons offenses.
Violent crimes in Arizona often carry a presumption of prison time. Sentences vary based on the severity of the offense and whether it’s classified as “dangerous.” Dangerous offenses—those involving serious injury or weapons—can result in mandatory prison terms ranging from several years to decades, depending on prior convictions and aggravating factors.
Yes. With the help of an experienced criminal defense attorney, charges may be reduced or dismissed based on lack of evidence, self-defense, mistaken identity, or procedural errors. A strong legal strategy can challenge the prosecution’s case and protect your rights throughout the process.
