About this firm

“There is no case that cannot be won, negotiated or mitigated”

When your freedom, your reputation and your career are on the line, you owe it to yourself and your family to have the best possible defense, and the most experienced lawyer defending you.

With over 70 years of combined criminal law experience, VIB Law is the largest and most successful criminal defense firm in Northern California. Our partners have consistently been recognized for excellence in their fields of practice. Partner Cameron Bowman is a former Santa Clara County prosecutor and winner of the prestigious, “Trial Attorney of the Year” award. Partner Riccardo Ippolito won the “Top Lawyers In California” award presented by American Lawyer Media. Partner Patrick Valencia is a winner of the, “Juvenile Attorney of the Year” award presented by San Jose Magazine.

When the stakes are this high, why would you go with an “average” law firm? Our team of California criminal lawyers includes a former prosecutor and probation officer as well as a lifelong San Francisco Bay Area criminal defense attorney. We know firsthand how cops and district attorneys put together cases. Our insider knowledge of local courts and our many years of experience gives us a clear advantage over less experienced criminal defense attorneys. We are dedicated to guiding our clients through the chaos and difficulty of the criminal justice system and back to the "real world" of jobs and family as quickly as possible.

When charged with a crime, it is imperative that you get us involved early on. There may be an opportunity between the arrest and the filing of formal charges. If our attorneys are given the opportunity to defend you before formal charges are filed, they have the opportunity to impact the prosecuting attorney’s office on their filing decision, and in some cases, avoid a long term criminal record. It can make a Big Difference. Call us today for a free consultation. Se habla español.
