The Attorneys and Staff members at Cambell Whitten are phenomenal, and my experience with them has been great. They helped me at every turn and were of great help when answering any questions I had regarding my case. The outcome couldn't have gone better, and I am glad I decided to go to Cambell Whitten. I would highly recommend.

This is an excellent law firm!!! My husband and I recommended to anyone who is dealing with DUIs. They were able to get all his DUIs dismissed with no points on his record. Their interpreter Teresa Tate was of great help since my husband mainly speaks Spanish. Our lawyer was very competent and kept us updated throughout the process!!!

I had a very long drawn out complicated case. I saught out the best and I got it. I was up on 7 felony charges, the DA wanted time. Jesse whitten was extremely knowledgeable and he was successful in the out come. If you want the best look no further. Seriously, call these guys. The office is beautiful the staff are wonderful. The attorneys are smart and know what they are doing. Put all that aside and know you are hiring someone who cares about their clients. I got what I wanted from the out come and Jesse was with me every step of the way. He was literally a email or call away. He made me feel like a human not just a client. I did have interaction with Clayton and he's awesome too. Sam was successful in getting my ticket dropped and that was just a extra thing during all this. I gotten a ticket a pretty serious one. He went on my behalf and it was dropped. This firm is amazing at what they do. If you need defending call these guys Campbell Whitten you won't be sorry I promise.

These guys are awesome. They are not like your typical lawyers. They don't make empty promises, they give it to you straight, and i didn't feel like they just wanted my money. These guys don't feed you B.S. They take the time to listen to you and answer your questions. They really go to bat for you and their paralegal. Ms.Theresa Tate is a guardian angel. I felt like i was always protected. There fees are affordable. I will always have their number on speed dial ; esp with how police treat people, prosecutors just worried about their conviction rate and corrupted Judges.

Attorney Sam Van Eerden is the most competent attorney that I have ever dealt with. As a Physician and Surgeon licensed to practice Medicine in the State of California since 1985, I have known and interacted with numerous lawyers. I initially was referred to Attorney Clayton Campbell who was extremely professional and reviewed the charges against me. Attorney Sam Van Eerden actually "fought" for me and my rights. He reviewed all the paperwork in the case, including the arrest report. He realized that the arrest was conducted inappropriately. My license to drive was not suspended or revoked because of the actions of Attorney Van Eerden. He also had the charges against me reduced and my probation with the court terminated with only 18 months of probation. I was ordered to have 36 months of probation. Attorney Van Eerden was always available to speak to me and kept me "up to speed" on the progress of my case. GREAT LAW FIRM !!! Thank you so much!

I couldn't be more pleased with the representation Sam Van Eerden provided for me. His demeanor in the office made me feel comfortable in an uncomfortable situation and his professionalism in the courtroom reinforced my decision to choose Campbell Whitten. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome in my particular case and the 5 stars for this review was truly earned.

I was driving not intoxicated, me break booster went out , went to get help to get var off of a rock. As I return 4 officers were on site! I was sjaken & had a drink with my friend before returning to truck. I came directly back, spoke to police ,they smelled cinnamon & all attitud3s changed! All the sudden in their eyes I was breaking law! They used 3 different blow machines, I pads d field sobriety, had tow truck on way! These officers seemed new in my small town. Before I knew what I did wrong I was in handcuffs! Over the years from age 18 this would be my 3RD drinking & driving ,which carries very heavy penalties! I was scared! Need to drive lots of responsibilities! So I googled top attorneys in Bakersfield. I was taken in for a talk with Sam. I was Leary as ive never gotten a attorney before. Boy am I so very happy I found Sam at Whitman! I do not know how he does it- it seemed as of he performed magic? I received a 1st time offender charge and was back on the road in days! I ammm so GREATFUL to Sam! I wish they handled more than dui's! If you are in serious trouble, looking at steep jail time, losing licence for 3 YEARS ! OR WORSE YOU ARE SMART TO GO TO CONSULT WITH THIS AWESOME COMPANY (SAM) ESPECIALLY! I didn't EXPECT A OUTCOME SO GREAT! LAWYERS DO ACTUALLY HELP! He truly saved me in a a situation I THOUGHT I was done! These officer's then went on to bill me for 10 total hours with me/arresting me $1900+$!!!! Sam has also taken on that u fair overblown charge for a crime I didn't commit! I learned a lng time ago do NOT argue /ddosahree withofficers! Let Sam do it socwe tually have a voice!!!! If you are in trouble call Sam and go for free consult! He doesn't make grand promise s, but he OVER- DELIVERED ON MY CASE! Iletanyone know in need. Don't drink and drive , life happens and police sometimes jump to conclusions & do not listen. Sincerely, Laurie F.

Campbell Whitten saved us $25,000 and did an excellent job representing my son. My son was arrested on multiple felony charges and was being held in custody on a $250,000 bail bond. my son had never been in trouble before and the logical first step seemed to be getting him out of custody ASAP. We met with a bail bondsman who said they would require a $25,000 non-refundable fee to bail my son out, which would have been a significant financial burden on our family. Knowing that we also needed a good lawyer, I called Campbell Whitten, and asked whether it was a good idea to pay the $25,000 to bail my son out. They told us we could come in right then for a free consultation with Mr. Whitten, and he could answer our questions about bail. The bail people were very pushy and did not want to let us have any time to think about it or talk to a lawyer, and I was feeling very stressed. We almost gave in, but I'm very glad we didn't. We went to the Campbell Whitten office and met with Mr. Whitten. I was expecting more high pressure sales tactics, but it was quite the opposite. Mr. Whitten took the time to listen to our situation and answer all of our questions. He told us he could get a better deal on bail, and that he could also probably get bail reduced. Instead of pressuring us to decide right away, he agreed to go and talk to my son before we decided what to do. We all (my son included) felt much more at ease after speaking with Mr. Whitten, and we decided to see what he could do before posting bail. Much to our surprise Mr. Whitten was able to get my son released later that same day, and we didn't have to pay any money at all! Not only did this firm save us a lot of money and treat us great throughout the whole ordeal, but i was very impressed with how they represented my son and the outcome they were able to achieve.

I ended up getting a dui the beginning of 2017 and Campbell Whitten was able to get it completely dismissed off my record!!! They kept in contact great answered every question I had even if I repeated myself! They never rushed me and were great with doing what I wanted to do! I recommend everyone to go through them even if it's not a dui case! Extremely satisfied!

I would go to someone else if you want a lawyer that is going to get to know you and keep you informed of the the right dates. My lawyer never seemed to know what my job was and told me the wrong dates to take action. When I have called to talk to him about this he hasn't called me back. However most of my interaction were ok and their staff is pleasant.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to Teresa Palos for everything she has done for me, paralegal @Campbell Whitten at law office. For the length and time of my case, Teresa Palos was very professional and gave all of her divided attention, best of her knowledge, and service I deserved. She respected my decision with great attitude and absolute no hesitation, she answered all of my repeated questions, concerns, and made me feel like I was in good hands. Teresa Palos is a great example for going above and beyond to meet clients expectation to the highest level. With no regrets I’m glad I turned to Campbell Whitten at law office. I must say that my overall experience with Teresa Palos is greatly appreciated, gained my respect at the fullest and was more than I could have imagined.
I am very pleased with the outcome and the handling of my case. I will gladly recommend your services to any of my friends or family that may ever need it. Thanks again for such a great team!

Campbell, Whitten, are such an excellent law firm. I had a case from over 5 years ago but I moved out of state. I was ordered classes from the court but could not locate any within my state. Sam was able to not only find and get me enrolled, but also the number was reduced. He went above and beyond for me, he petitioned to have my case expunged, which I am very grateful for. Thank you for all your help and professionalism.

Very friendly and down to earth. And the bottom line is they are much more affordable than a lot of the other law offices in town and yet managed to get me a better deal than the "other guys" regarding a nearly identical case (violating probation). They also offered me extra services at no extra charge. These guys seem to really care about their clients and making sure they have the best outcome. Even if i was rich and could afford a $50,000 lawyer, I'd probably still come back to these guys - although knock on wood I never need to.

I have called three times this past weeks to get help with a case. I called Thursday, was told they would call me back within 30 mins... I waited until Friday and called back myself and she told me she would give them my information and call me back that afternoon. Waited the whole weekend until Monday (today) and called AGAIN. She said she was sending my information to them that moment and would have a call in 20 minutes.... five hours later I am writing this review!! Would give 0 stars but there is no option.

I don't think I would be where I am at now, if I hadn't walked into this criminal defense firm. Sam, the attorney that took my case was professional, attentive, and when my case was closed I was literally given my life back to how it was before the incident! The price wasn't bad either given how drastic my case was! Thanks a lot Cambell Whitten, and thanks so much Sam for everything you did for me!!

The Whitten firm represented my son this past year. My son had multiple charges against him and the whole thing was a mess. Jesse Whitten and his associate Sam Van Eerden did an amazing job in getting charges reduced and dropped. They were kind and caring (not adjectives you usually associate with most lawyers). They went above and beyond my expectations and did an amazing job. I recommend them highly!

I was in a hopeless situation, until I got Jesse Whitten as my lawyer. He was the only thing between me and serious time. I was facing a major sentence meaning several years of incarceration. MY BAIL WAS ONE MILLION DOLLARS! I was arrested and charged for possession of a large quantity of MARIJUANA in a U-HAUL. He took my case for a very reasonable price. So I'm sitting here today thankful on this computer just 3 months after being locked up in Lerdo County Jail. I honestly am very great full for what Jesse Whitten has done for me. I recommend him to anyone who is an a deep scary situation. He got me a good deal with the District Attorney. I WAS LOCKED UP JUST FOR 3 MONTHS AND THEN I WAS OUT. He knew his Defenses and Laws. He always showed up in court on time and he was always available to speak to him when we needed him the most! Jesse Whitten will fight for you!!

Faulkner Law Offices is a Bakersfield law firm that specializes in personal injury cases. We take great pride in taking exceptional care of our clients. When we refer criminal cases to other attorneys, We don't send them to just any attorney. We require that the referral goes to a highly qualified and experienced firm that takes good care of their clients. We send criminal cases to Campbell Whitten knowing that they will represent their clients with the same dedication and passion that we would.

I am a normal hard working family man. I never thought I would be in trouble with the law, or would need to hire a lawyer, but I found myself in the wrong place at the wrong time and next thing I knew, I had been charged with a felony and was looking at going to prison. I hired Campbell Whitten, and Mr. Whitten was able to get the felony charges dismissed and I didn't have to do any time. I honestly think that if I would have gone with a different lawyer things would have gone differently and there is a good chance that I wouldn't have the good job and the life I have now. The main thing that stood out to me about Jesse was that he seemed to really care about me and about what happened to me. The judge even commented that part of the reason he was giving me the benefit of the doubt was because my attorney had believed in me and fought hard on my behalf. Choosing Campbell Whitten was one of the best decisions I ever made, and if you've been charged with a crime I would definitely recommend them.

If you ever need an lawyer Clayton Campbell is the best. Not only did he provide great service on my appearance in court, he also was very helpful after services were rendered. If I need anything I call Campbell first. Great Lawyer and happens to be an awesome human being. Just sayin

If you’re looking for a really great criminal defense lawyer, you need to call Campbell Whitten. Trust me on this one, these guys are the best. I was facing felony charges and the DA made me an offer of 2 years in prison and offered my co-defendant 16 months in prison. my co-defendant took the 16 months and the lawyer I had basically told me I was an idiot if I didnt take the 2 years. I almost took his advice but a friend told me I should call Campbell Whitten first, and man am I glad I did. I went in and talked to Jesse Whitten, and right away he told me that he thought I had a good defense. I didn’t know whether to believe him or not, but decided to give them a chance. Jesse went in, argued my case, and negotiated a deal for 7 days in jail instead of 2 years in prison! He told me he could probable get the case dismissed altogether if I wanted to fight it, but I decided I was happy with the offer of 7 days in jail.
I have had a few minor legal problems since, and their whole firm has always been super helpful. I know there busy but they always find a way to make time for me, all three lawyers at the firm (Jesse, Clayton, and Sam) not only known what they were doing, but have gone out of their way to help me. If you ever have problems with the law, there is no one better to have on your side.
