Walnut Creek Criminal Defense Attorney | Joseph Motta, Attorney at Law

"I care for my clients as if they are my own family.

Fighting for them is my greatest reward."

"I was raised in this courthouse as a trial attorney where I handled thousands of criminal cases as a prosecutor. My job now is to protect, counsel and help my clients get court, jail and the criminal justice system behind them."

"My goal is to leave every client in a better place than I have found them, and if that is not possible, at least get them to a place where they can envision the better place for themselves. Sometimes that involves self-reflection, healing, rehabilitation and rejuvenation.”

"I help my clients through dark and difficult times."

"I provide expert legal advice, with a fresh approach to working and strategizing with my clients, helping them make knowledgeable and calculated decisions, and taking the time and care that my clients need to make it to the other side.”
