Practice Areas
Mr. Alexander handles a wide range of criminal defense and civil matters:
Bilingual Practice
Mr. Alexander is fluent in English and Spanish. Approximately 70% of his client base is Spanish-speaking, reflecting the demographics of Orange County and the Central Valley. He also speaks Farsi and German.
Bilingual representation is more than a convenience — it is essential for criminal defense. Misunderstandings between defendant, attorney, and court can result in coerced pleas, missed deadlines, or unfair sentences. Mr. Alexander handles every aspect of representation directly with Spanish-speaking clients, without requiring an interpreter for confidential discussions.
