If you have been sued or considering filing suit against another for damages you have sustained, our firm can represent you.  We have successfully represented many individuals and businesses in contract disputes, sexual harassment matters, premises liability (dog bites, slip and fall), real estate, and a variety of other legal disputes in court. Also, if you have been injured in an auto accident, please see a doctor and then call our office to see if we can be of any assistance.  For more information, review the free pamphlet in our download section. 

If you have been charged with a crime, you will need competent legal representation to make sure your rights are defended in court.  The criminal judicial process starts at the time of arrest.  At that time, the entire machinery of the State is focused geared towards trying the accused.  The process can seem at times arcane and confusing.  I will be there to help you through the entire process in order to obtain the best outcome possible. My criminal practice consists of:



• Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs


• Assault/Battery


• Domestic Violence


• Criminal threats


• Vehicle related offenses


• Theft (petty theft, grand theft and shoplifting)


• Burglary


• Fraud and forgery


• Drug offenses


• Weapons offenses

An expungement is a process whereby a criminal conviction or a plea of guilty or no-contest is set aside and the case dismissed.  An expungement relieves a person of the penalties and disabilities that result from a criminal conviction.    We can also reduce certain felony convictions to a misdemeanor and reduce the effects of a criminal conviction.  For more information please see our free pamphlet in our download section. 


At the Law Offices of Henrik Mosesi, our bankruptcy focus is mainly on Chapter 7 petitions.  In Chapter 7 cases, commonly known as liquidation cases, all dischargeable debts are eliminated and all non-exempt assets are liquidated.  You will get to keep all exempt assets. Go directly to our bankruptcy checklist page to review the summary of recent changes and requirements for a chapter 7 bankruptcy.



On October 17, 2005, all of the provisions of the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention Act of 2005 went into effect.    Among the many changes to the bankruptcy rules are requirements that a debtor first attend a credit counseling class and meet a complicated "Means Test" before being able to file a chapter 7 bankruptcy.  Debtors who do not meet the requirements under the means test can have their case dismissed for "abuse" at the request of the bankruptcy trustee or any creditor.



Under a Chapter 13 case, commonly called a Reorganization for an individual  or a small  business, creditors generally receive some repayment for their debts through a repayment plan.  The repayment plan is usually 36 months in duration where the debtor pays all of her disposable income to the court.  In return, the debtor receives full protection under bankruptcy law which often means stopping a foreclosure or repossession.



The goal of a personal bankruptcy is to discharge your existing debts and give you a fresh start.   In other words, once your discharge is granted, you no longer need to repay the debts that were incurred before you filed your bankruptcy.



Do not trust your bankruptcy matter to independent paralegals.  Our office has over 7 years experience with chapter 7 and 13 bankruptcies.  We can prepare and file your petition right the first time and see the case through to discharge or confirmation in case of a chapter 13 case.  Email or contact us for a free consultation.




Our office can also represent you in your divorce, legal separation, and child custody and support matters.  The process of a divorce or legal separation can be an extremely emotional and complex process.  The last thing you need to deal with is an attorney who does not understand the process.  Trust us with your family law matter.

We can also prepare pre-nuptial (pre-marital) agreements; post-nuptial agreement, or co-habitation agreement. Contact our office for a free consultation.

Personal Injury Car Accident:

After an accident stop and identify yourself.   Show your driver's license and registration to the other party and to any police officer that may have arrived at the scene of the accident.  This is required under California Vehicle Code sections 20002 and 20003.  Failure to stop and exchange information at the scene of an accident may expose you to misdemeanor charges for hit and run and/or failure to exchange information.

Try to provide assistance to anyone injured.  Make sure whatever assistance you render to an injured person is reasonable to you under the circumstances.   California Vehicle code section 20008 requires one to report any injuries to the police or make a written report to the local police or the California Highway Patrol within twenty-four hours.  Also, vehicle code section 16000 requires you to report the accident to the Department of Motor Vehicles in Sacramento within ten days if property damage exceeds $750.00 and/or injury or death has resulted.  Use the official DMV form to report your accident.

Get the other driver's full name, address, insurance information, date of birth, driver's license number and license plate number.  In order to help you collect this information, we've designed this handy brochure which not only contains important information about your rights, but you can use the pamphlet to jot down the other person's personal information.  

As soon as possible, get medical attention and report the incident to your insurance carrier.  Then contact our office for a free consultation regarding your rights.
