David Reagan, Criminal Defense Attorney
Oakland, CA
I have worked with Mr. McCurley for a number of years. Some of the projects include California state appeals, federal habeas corpus petitions, writ petitions in civil court, record clearance petitions, and trial court motions. His work in each of these fields is excellent. Whenever Mr. McCurley assists me with a project, I know that my briefs will be precise, well researched, and persuasive. One of the reasons I favor Mr. McCurley over other attorneys is that he has an eye for the crucial facts that the court will view as important when ruling on the case, and he emphasizes why those facts are in our favor. What is more, his analysis of case law clarifies the pertinent rule, rather than making it more complex. I trust Mr. McCurley in serious cases involving life sentences, and I know that even in my most minor cases he will do quality work. I highly recommend him.

Mr. McCurley has worked with me on countless appeals and pretrial motions on cases ranging from misdemeanor DUI’s to serious felonies. He also has excellent knowledge of writ practice, Penal Code section 290 registration, and post conviction relief. I highly recommend him.

I’ve known and worked with John McCurley for years. Although I handle all sorts of criminal cases, a large portion of my cases involve homicide and other serious felony charges.

He does high quality work and has a good understanding of the legal issues in my cases and how they should be litigated. I strongly recommend him.
