Biography

Selected by Super Lawyers Magazine as a "Rising Star," Karthik Krishnan has emerged as one of the young criminal defense and DUI attorneys in Los Angeles, Ventura, and Santa Barbara Counties.

The criminal system can be a stressful and insensitive place, where your voice is not heard. However, that is not the case with Karthik. The focus of his representation is his clients and what they need.

"I want to tell the client's story," he says.

In Karthik's decade plus experience as a criminal defense attorney he has handled various cases ranging from serious felonies, thousands of DUI matters, domestic violence cases, and sex offense cases. Karthik has successfully defended and obtained dismissals in various serious felony cases, obtained not guilty verdicts in jury trial, and successfully protected countless clients from receiving a criminal record.

Karthik primarily practices in Los Angeles, Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, and Van Nuys as well as Ventura and Santa Barbara County.

Karthik is a loyal resident of Los Angeles and spends his free time visiting the city's many food venues and fervently supporting the Los Angeles Lakers, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Los Angeles Kings.
