Biography Submit listing

GIVELLE LAMANO is an Oakland DUI & Criminal Defense Attorney who truly cares about her clients. She has represented people from all walks of life from gang members appealing their life sentences to corporate executives who have never been arrested. She is licensed in both state and federal courts and has served as a court appointed attorney for the Alameda County Bar Association, taking on cases when the public defenders office was unable to do so.

Ms. Lamano received the Super Lawyer Rising Star award in 2017 for her professional achievement and peer recognition. She ranks in the top 2% of over 65,000 attorneys. She received the Client’s Choice award with Avvo for multiple years and has a 9.0 ranking. She is the only attorney in Alameda County with over 100 five-star ratings on Yelp and also maintains the same five-star level with Google reviews.

Ms. Lamano takes a more holistic approach to understand why a person was arrested in the first place. By doing this, she highlights the good traits in people who find themselves in a bad situation. She then uses that information to present her clients in the most positive light when negotiating deals in court. Ms. Lamano does not believe one bad act should ruin a person’s life or define who they are. At Lamano Law Office, the goal is simple - get the charges dismissed and help clients avoid legal trouble in the future.

TRANSCRIPTION:

Givelle Lamano: Hi, my name is Givelle Lamano and I'm the principal attorney at Lamano Law Office. The goal of this video is to tell you what you need to do to clean up your record. There are generally two avenues to clean up your criminal record. The first one is called a penal code 1203.4. And the second one is called a penal code 851.8. The first one is called the motion to dismiss in the interest of justice. It's important for you to understand what this is going to look like on your criminal record in the event that employer or somebody who's doing a background check wants to look you up. What's going to end up showing is the year and the date that you were arrested, the year and the date that you were convicted. And then finally this 1203.4 motion, which says that the charges were dismissed in the interest of justice.

Now, if you're applying for a job, it's very possible that a sophisticated human resources manager will know exactly what a 1203.4 is. In other words, they'll know that the charges weren't dismissed, but that you filed to get it off of your record at a later date. However, some people are not that sophisticated. And in filling out an application, you might actually be able to check the box that says, have you been charged with a crime and say, yes. And in the portion where it asks you to explain, you can say you got the charges dismissed. It's a bit vague. And if your employer or somebody who's asking you wants to ask about it, you can explain what a 1203.4 motion is and what the purpose of that motion is. And that is to dismiss the charges in the interest of justice as approved by the court.

The second avenue is what's called a penal code 851.8, which is also known as a motion for factual innocence. This is a situation where you get arrested and you get charged with the crime and the charges are dismissed against you because there was no factual basis to show that you actually committed a crime. It happens all the time. People are wrongfully arrested, wrongfully accused, and then they have this arrest record that they want to get off their back. In order to do that, this is the avenue that you want to file, which is a penal code 851.8. Both these motions take some time in court. It could take anywhere between 45 to 90 days to draft the paperwork, file the paperwork, get a date in court and finally have somebody argue that on your behalf. And generally, this is an attorney. You could potentially do this on your own, but you do take a little bit of the risk because you're expected to know the law and meet the standards that the court requires in order to potentially grant these motions.

So at the end of the day, what I recommend is if you want to take care of you clearing up your record, the best thing you can do is contact us. Tell us what type of a record you have, what county it happened in and why you want to get this done. We'll likely present this to the court in the most positive light so that you get the result that you want. And that is a clean record. Thanks for listening and give us a call if there's any other questions that you might have.

Charged With A Crime - What Happens Next?
The purpose of this video is to explain to you the confusion of what happens when you, or your loved ones, are charged with a crime.

What to listen for in this video:
0:00 - Intro
0:19 - 1st thing that happens when a crime is committed (the pre-phase)
1:34 - Who is the district attorney?
3:23 - The court phase
6:09 - The pre-trial hearing
8:13 - A preliminary examination
9:43 - The jury trial & plea bargain

It's always the same in every criminal matter. There's an arraignment, there's negotiations, also known as the pre-trial. If it's a felony, you have a preliminary examination. And if it's not a felony, it's still the same thing. You either break up ... and go to trial ... or you make up ... and you take a plea.
