Braden & Tucci

Mr. Tucci represented me back in 2013 when I was going through a tough case. He came highly recommended when I was searching for the best defense attorney. I was completely surprised when I came to court and things went so smoothly. It became apparent to me then that Tucci’s experience in the field brought all the necessary tools to help my defense. If you’re thinking about who to choose to represent you, look no further.

I just reached the one year mark since that dreadful DUI. I chose Mr. Tucci because he came highly recommended from a very good friend. From all the attorneys that I met, Mr Tucci was the most transparent and honest, especially with the fees he charged. Since I was being charged with a felony, most attorneys wanted the drastic fees upfront. Tucci was the ONLY one who offered to charge misdemeanor fees because he was confident enough that he could get it down to that, and we agreed that if it ended as a felony case, I would pay the difference later. I was facing up to a year in prison, but Tucci wouldn’t take that. He fought for me. It took several court appearances, but he was able to work out a miraculous plea for 90 days of house arrest. Because of him, I was able to save my job that I had been at for 6 years and I did not get a felony. He was so tenacious and determined that even the judge literally told me that I was fortunate to have Tucci as my representation. I cannot thank him enough for what he did to save me and my reputation. One mistake can literally change your life and if you’re ever in the same position, you better hire Tucci. Words will never express how thankful I am for him.

Mr. Tucci and his wonderful staff have helped me now with a couple of different cases, always with a great result. I wouldn’t trust anyone else to handle things as effectively as he has! I would recommend him to anyone needing any help with traffic/​DUI/​driving related offense. They are always polite and flexible and great at providing information as well as keeping me aware of everything and making sure I am at ease with everything. Thanks again! :)

Dismissed, Dismissed, Dismissed
My son received 3 serious non– DUI criminal charges that were trumped up. We had actually hired another attorney and realized he was not aggressive enough to aim for a total dismissal. We went to Tucci and it’s the best thing we ever did… I highly recommend him, he’s tough as nails, a great negotiator, knows the angles and more importantly cares. We had all 3 charges completely dismissed, I can’t say enough.

If you’re reading these right now you’re probably trying to figure out, among many things, which lawyer to hire for the DUI… I was lucky enough to have the support of my family, and my Mom found Mr. Tucci off of Unilocal none the less. We were extremely caught on by one of his responses to a poor review. Everything he cited showed us he is an extremely qualified attorney who absolutely knows what he is doing. I have no doubt in my mind Mr. Tucci will get you the absolute best result possible for your DUI situation.
We scheduled a meeting with his that evening after reading the Unilocal review. He opened up his firm, which mind you has quite the entrance display of a massive saltwater aquarium, after hours to hear my case. He met with my mom and I on an evening in his office.
He explained the process I was about to go through and answered questions. It was very calming and reassuring. Despite all the research I had done on my own prior to even entering his office on the process of a DUI case, I learned more from our retainer meeting than anything I read online. Mr. Tucci is worth every penny.
After I hired him he went on to do the entire DMV and Criminal process completely without my attendance. He has a great office staff who kept me informed via email and phone communications along the way. Of course I was anxious and worried for the 3−4months he was handling all of this for me on his own without me. But he has it handled… Crossed every t and dotted every i. This is not some mediocre attorney, he’s the real deal and going to get you the best outcome possible for your situaton.
I showed up to court today to meet him for the second time with 3 criminal counts, including a DUI and Hit and Run… I was scared shitless… to say the least. Mr. Tucci walks into the court and just knows what up and what’s going on. Every attorney there knows who he is. Everyone wants to talk to this guy. I absolutely loved his pin on his lapel… I knew I was in confident hands just watching his demeanor in the court room and how fellow attorneys were interacting with him.
I don’t know what he did, but before the judge even saw me things were underway and by the time it was us I had reached a plead bargain with a wet reckless, no DUI, under $ 500 in fees and fines to the court, and a mere 89 hours of picking up sand at the beach across the next 12months. To put this into perspective this is just 1 day a month for 11 months… All I had to do was say Yes I understand, your honor to everything he said.
I was worried about keeping my license… My job needs it. There’s a method to everything Mr. Tucci tells you to do. If you want the possibility of a restricted license with DUI (I got a wet reckless so luckily THANK YOU MR TUCCI I am not restricted) he has you pre-​enroll in the necessary classes to expedite the process.
If you’re going to appear in court, hire the best attorney you can afford. Mr. Tucci is the one you want next to you when the judge is in front of you. I’ll tell you that right now…
THANK YOU

Mr. Tucci is one exceptional attorney. He will not only meet your expectations, but exceed them. He made a best case scenario happen with my traffic charges. Everything was dismissed after he appeared in court for my case. I was referred to him through a friend, and will pass the word on to friends and family that are in need of legal help. The receptionists are super friendly and make sure you are taken care of. Braden & Tucci deserve a round of applause for their outstanding service. Thanks again!

Great attorney! I’m a second DUI offender and he did the best he could for me. Would definitely recommend him for anyone in need of a DUI attorney! The staff were great, Araseli and Kristina were always prompt with emails and always so kind. Thanks Braden & Tucci

Vince WILL defend your case given your legitimacy. My boyfriend and I came to Vince after he faced multiple charges on a DUI. He was thorough, professional, informative, and when dealing with such a sensitive situation, HE WAS SO KIND. Never pretentious or aloof, he truly cares about his clients and is dedicated to providing the best services he can! A true gem in a cut throat profession! To add to his greatness, the office staff is amazing and discreet! Thank you for making us fee like the professionals we are!

Let me just start off by saying this is a long overdue review. My wife and mother both posted about 6 months ago and it’s time I wrote one as well.
I was facing my second DUI in 6 months and the only reason I came out ok was because of Vince Tucci and his staff. They are nothing short of a God send. Vince is extremely professional and compassionate. He makes it very apparent that he cares deeply about what he does and also treats his clients like they are much more than that. During this incredibly difficult and trying time he and his secretary Araseli felt like family. They are there for you every step of the way and not one time did we feel like we were going through this alone. It felt as though we had Patton’s army on our side. They truly do give it their all. Their professionalism and communication is unparalleled. Quite honestly if you are going through any DUI situation and don’t hire Vince Tucci you are making a huge mistake and doing yourself a disservice. He is the best at what he does.
I apologize for not writing this review sooner, but I’m happy I was finally able to do so.
I also want to just reiterate once again how great Vince Tucci is and also Araceli. She is so wonderful and sweet and caring. They are both a true blessing.

Mr. Tucci is extremely knowledgeable and quick to respond. I would highly recommend them to anyone going thru a similar court case.
I’ve seen a few other negative reviews on here for Braden and Tucci, but simply had nothing near those experiences. Crossing my fingers I will never need their services again, but if the situation arises, I know exactly who to hire.

Not sure what went on behind the scenes but, I never met the lawyer till the day of my hearing. He told me to accept the guilty plea and disappeared. They did file paperwork and took the stress out of the process though. Communication could have been much better.

Vince really helped my case out, and it wasn’t pretty. He himself isn’t always available but his staff is always prompt with responses and instructions. He knows exactly what he’s talking about and got me the best possible outcome.
I get why the negative people got rubbed the wrong way, Vince doesn’t sugar coat anything. He’s very blunt, direct, and will tell you exactly what you can expect given what he knows about your case; why would you want a lawyer bs’ing about an outcome that isn’t possible? If you like what you hear, good, if you don’t, leave. That’s his point. Once you give him the reigns he needs full control.
Thanks again Vince for handling my case!

I used Vince, after dumping my first firm… they did such a bad job, they even refunded all my money — that’s pretty damning in itself. I found Vince on the Internet. The reason I gave him a ⁴⁄₅ I will explain.
I had a second DUI in 5 years. He did a god job on my case, especially since we had very little time to get things straightened out and court was right around the corner. He did come across as pompous and arrogant, but I think what he does — the attitude, goes with the territory. What I did like is that, when I called him on how he was talking and acting, he immediately, stopped (I thought he was going to walk out) and calmly restated what I asked him. He and I are very much alike, so I get where he is coming from. When a person is busy, they may not realize how they say things — their mind is way down the road from what the client is saying. Could he be more sensitive, better ‘bedside” manner, yes, but what one really needs is a good outcome to the case. I told myself to put my big girl panties on and get on down the road. It does not hurt to say how one feels — in fact, it takes good self esteem to do it, as sometimes when communicating both parties are not on the same page. Attorneys are not God. If people feel something, they should say it. The first firm I hired had GREAT bedside manner, but no skills and Melvin Milk Toast talking with me and the court.
As far as the front desk person, Aricelli is concerned, I thought she was the most polite, courteous front desk person I’ve ever met. Very genuine — everyone has bad days, no? These people are not God. They deal with lots of negativity. Again, it’s the good outcome one is looking for, not besties.
Thank you, Vincent Tucci, for your help in resolving my case as best as it could be resolved. Thank you for being you. Just know, for future reference, you are a good size man, and that can be intimidating, both good for he court, but not so good for the client, who after being bounced around by LAPD/​CHPS, beforehand, can sometimes upset the client.
Mr. Tucci’s heart is in the right place, he will help you to the full extent.

I don’t even know where to begin. Should I start with how unprofessional the assistant «Arasely» was? Or how blatantly rude, loud, disrespectful and full of himself the attorney Vince Tucci was? Just WOW. This guy seemed so full of it. I couldn’t even get more than two sentences in during my initial meeting/​intake with him. He didn’t seem to care about anyone but himself. Yes he was willing to work with my payment plans, but it still wasn’t worth it. I am hiring a new attorney that cost almost $ 800 more. that should go to show how bad this guy is. He had no respect, whatsoever! Felt very unethical. He seemed childish. Even after firing him, he wrote back a childish email basically stating no I fired you first… Wish I followed my instincts and SAVED MYSELF FROM THE STRESS!

I am very ashamed and disgusted by the reviews I gave this law firm… I am working with Unilocal to have them removed. At the time I wrote those reviews I was at a very low point in life and took my anger toward the attorney that was there when I needed him… I would like to say how very sorry I am for posting those hateful disgusting
tucci was the only reason I’m not in jail. I hope he finds it in his heart to forgive me for the awful things I said about him… I would recommend this law firm… again I am working with Unilocal to help take the reviews down… if anyone was a fat disgusting pig it was me! Again please accept my sincere apologies… Anna c.

Look no further than Vincent Tucci to represent you in your DUI case. He absolutely delivers what he says he’ll do, and got me the best possible outcome from my DUI situation. His excellence in the courtroom made every penny worth his fee and then some. I was referred to Mr Tucci by a friend and will pay that forward by fully endorsing Braden and Tucci. He represented me in Glendale which far from his office, and delivered every time… his knowledge of the law in his field is unrivaled. Lawyers frequently do not get reviews when they deliver on their job, so kudos to Braden and Tucci for an excellent job!

I hired Mr. Tucci when I needed a lawyer to get me off of probation from my DUI’s. It was an amazing experience not only am I off probation he also got them expunged off my record. I would recommend Mr. Tucci to anyone and everyone that needs a excellent lawyer that cares not only about his/​your case record but the person whom he is helping. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN VINCENT TUCCI!

There I was waking up in a jail cell, asking myself who have I become. This isn’t me, I can’t believe I am in this position. Being released back to the world, still dazed about what happened — everything outside of the Fullerton police department seemed to be continuing on as normal… the only world that ceased was mine. allienaited…ashamed…and at rock bottom. Feelings of being so lost.
Tucci turned that around — working with him and his office staff felt like dealing with family, not a business. He was very understanding of the situation and honestly made me feel as if though the DUI never happened! The process was painless, quick and easy! Communication was always there and on point, I literally had to do nothing but show up one time in court!
Not only did Vince Tucci help me get through the legal aspect of this unfortunate event — he helped me regain part of who I was and reconstruct the that part into a better person.
I would recommend his service to everyone: knowledgeable, friendly, prompt, and a handshake that will make anybody feel appreciated!
Thank you Vince,
Your memory will always remain, though we may lose contact someday I will always look back and reflect kindly.
