See What Clients Have to Say About Working With Our Firm!

Diane is divine!! She was the best that could have happened to our case. She is brilliant and very wise, and best of all, she treated us with care and empathy. I appreciated she was straightforward and honest about our possible outcomes to our specific situation, but the results were much better than what we expected.





















I had been searching for a attorney that could represent me properly in my legal defense and after several interviews with prospective attorneys I came across Diane Bass she understood my case and presented herself in such a strong and confident way she won me over. Over the course of my case she would prove her worth. She mounted a very strong defense which assisted my case well, in the end I came out very well in reality I came out the best of the 31 Individuals involved I would recommend Diane to anyone facing legal issues especially criminal. I have since recommended her to a friend and I believe she will do an amazing job for him in his case. Thank you Diane!





















Diane is a friend of mine and I am so impressed by her professionalism to her clients that thought to do a review on google.If I could be guaranteed to have an attorney like Diane for every occasion that called for legal advice, I’d be rest assured to receive stellar outcome on the merit of my attorney’s dedication. Diane treats everyone like family and THAT is unique all by itself.





















Diane- First of I’m writing this review as a client even though I felt like you represented me as a family member. Your years of federal experience speaks volumes but most importantly how much thought and care you put into everything you do. I felt always over prepared for all scenarios and without a doubt positioned for best possible outcome. One of the greatest feelings is having an attorney always by your side when you need them…I.e. a Saturday afternoon text answered within reasonable because she understand it’s important. Diane was always very caring and supportive in not only for court but a big part of rehabilitating myself showing unconditional support. If you are looking for a top attorney not only to help guide and position for best case outcome and help navigate you through this journey stop looking!Thank you for everything Diane!





















Diane is extremely professional and courteous. She's constantly providing updates, information and insights on certain Laws and how to navigate things a certain way. If you're looking for someone that you can fully trust I strongly encourage you to reach out to her. You can't go wrong with her.





















I am so thankful to have found Diane. I was facing a very scary legal matter and Diane was such a comfort. Not only was she prompt and professional she really took the time to listen and seemed to genuinely care. She went above and beyond for me to resolve the matter quickly. I highly recommend her services to anyone.





















She’s the best at her job and very professional. Diane is willing to go above and beyond to help you get the best possible outcome! Appreciate all the hard work she does for her clients!





















We would like to express our sincere appreciation for all you have done for our family. This has been an extremely difficult time for us and we don’t know what we would have done without your assistance. Words could never express our gratitude for the time you’ve put into this case and for the kindness you’ve shown us.





















Diane is a Brilliant attorney. She listens carefully to your problems and clearly advises you with honesty. She was with me from the first day of my case and I have never been disappointed in any way. She is not afraid to battle for you. With her, you will never be alone.





















Diane Bass is a phenomenal attorney. I was referred to Diane by a family friend and I am extremely thankful that I was. Prior to finding out about Diane Bass, I had met with multiple attorneys only to come to the conclusion that I needed to keep searching for an attorney that was best for my case. After meeting with Diane I felt immediate comfort, and I was sold on the fact that I could trust this amazing person with my life. Diane Bass was there for me every step of the way like no other attorney had ever been.





















My name is Rayshaad and a few months ago my life changed. I got caught up in a serious case but thank God for Diane Bass she worked hard and got the judge to give me a second chance. She always answers her phone and emails. She has many clients, after all, she has been doing it for over a couple of decades, but she makes each client feel like family and she really got our back! I swear I’ll give my left arm for Diane or right arm for her and I recommend her. She knows all the judges and she walks in the courtroom like a boss! But if you do a crime and want less time hit Diane’s line!





















First of all I would like to thank Diane for everything she has done for me. From the start of my case, she has been there for me. Only very few people were granted bond and she pulled it off in my case. I know for a fact not too many lawyers could have done that. I am on probation for three years.. while “the others” will not have the chance to raise their children and live their lives. I was headed to prison….I am free.. and for that, I am forever grateful





















In early 2020, just as the Covid-19 pandemic was ramping up, I experienced a mental health crisis at my home in Orange County, California that left me mentally, emotionally, and physically traumatized. Facing all the challenges the rest of the world was facing while struggling to process all that had happened personally over those few days in February and facing unwarranted but serious felony charges from law enforcement for “assault on an officer and resisting arrest”, I found myself in need of a high profile defense attorney.
Without bloating this review with all that happened during the crisis and my experiences thereafter, it’s been the most challenging year of my close to 40 years on earth. After meeting with 4 defense attorneys and against pressure from family or friends to use their referral, I chose to work with Diane Bass for a variety of reasons. Without question, I made the right choice.
It wasn’t an easy decision for me, I felt I might be more comfortable with another attorney I had met, that was also a bit less expensive, but something told me Diane was the one. I’m very sentimental in all that I do, I want to work with people that are interested in taking the time to develop relationships. My first impression was that she’s very experienced, no-nonsense, knows the law, how the system works, and was very busy as a result. I quickly realized that she exceeded even those first impressions but also cared very much about my story, needs, and was sensitive to how challenging the process can be for her clients. A couple of times she’d sent me an encouraging text, news article, etc. that I needed just at that moment. I had this same experience with every professional referral she offered through the process. I’ve never felt so vulnerable and lost in my life. Without my faith in her resume’ and her professional encouragement, I can’t imagine how I would’ve made it through this process.
Lockdowns, courts being closed and even a deeply personal loss Diane experienced during the past year of my court process created unique challenges and she navigated it all perfectly. All charges are being dismissed, I can move on with my life and somehow feel gratitude for all of it. Whatever you’re going through that’s forced you to seek counsel, I’m confident Diane will achieve the best outcome you could hope for.





















Just wanted to say thank you to Diane Bass for her expertise during a criminal charges nightmare for one of my loved ones last year.
Diane made court calls, house calls, weekend texts, spoke with the family, and made sure to explain everything that was going on. She helped everyone navigate through the emotions, and get to the result we were looking for: the criminal charges dismissed.
During an uncertain time, Diane was able to untangle not only the mess of the case but also the mess of the court system during covid. She got our case resolved as fast as possible so we could move forward with life.
Diane is the perfect mix of gentle understanding and fierce action you’ll need if you find yourself dealing with the OC court system. She was able to leverage her long-standing relationships in the courthouse, and her shrewd knowledge of the law, to get a positive judgment we are very grateful for.
Highly recommend Diane for anyone stuck dealing with an Orange County criminal case. She will put your anxiety at ease and get you through the tangled system.





















I highly recommend Diane if you are dealing with legal troubles of your own. Since this being my first Federal offense, I had no idea what to expect. I was extremely anxious. After talking to Diane, I felt like she was the attorney I needed to help me get through these challenging times. Her professionalism and knowledge of the law were comforting. She explained the charges thoroughly. Diane was prompt when I had questions or concerns with my case. With her expertise, I was able to avoid a prison sentence and instead was enrolled in a drug program, CASA. She even went above and beyond in helping me get my State case resolved. Thanks again for everything Diane. You are truly a lifesaver!!





















Diane’s work is 2nd to none. I was charged with felony DV, and after working with one firm in Irvine that did absolutely nothing, I did some hard research and found Diane. She worked quickly and diligently and got the case dismissed. I absolutely don’t foresee me needing a criminal lawyer down the road, but if I do, it’ll be Diane hands down!





















Diane is the most professional, thorough attorney I have ever met. Her expertise, connections, analysis, and comprehensive review of my situation were more than I could ever ask. She helped through all aspects included some extremely technical components and helped resolve my case. I am extremely grateful and couldn't be happier with my choice!





















Ms. Bass was appointed to defend me in a multi-state criminal fraud case. She was appointed from the Central District Court pursuant to the Criminal Justice Act, so my expectations were not too high. Ms. Bass outdid every expectation, she was a champion, an advocate, a fighter, and my hero. There were many defendants, most of them male and all of whom were given jail time. Due to the amazing performance of my attorney, the heart of the Judge (and the grace of God), I did not have to serve time. I attribute that to the amazing counsel of my attorney, Ms. Diane Bass.





















It was amazing to watch Diane when she went into the defense mode. The opposing team made some questionable comments and she was so quick to prove that the comments were not factual. Diane added compassion to my case by referring to her own personal experience. My case was resolved with a much better outcome because of her.





















Diane, her knowledge & experience in the Federal Courts & Laws gave my bad situation a turn for the better! My family and I couldn't have got through this horrible situation without anyone better, your representation was excellent! I'm very grateful to have had you by my side through these very tough times!! It could have been worse, but you got me home real soon!!! Your "The Best!!"Forever Thankful,The Peterson Family
