About the Firm

Justice isn't just a word.
It's a commitment.

I understand what is at stake. I've seen how criminal charges can derail a life, affecting your career, your family, and your future. That is why I take a hands-on approach to every single case. I dig into the evidence, challenge the prosecution's case at every stage, and negotiate from a position of preparation. When negotiation isn't enough, I litigate.

When you hire ASH Legal, you get me—Ahmed Saif Hasan. Whether it requires delicate negotiation or aggressive litigation in the courtroom, I am prepared to do whatever it takes to get your life back on track.

Flat-fee representation starting at $2,800.

DEFENSE

Practice Areas

Solutions Focused

We don't use fear tactics. We focus on outcomes that let you move forward.

DUI Defense

Two separate battles — criminal court and the DMV. You have 10 days to request a DMV hearing. We challenge every detail of the stop and testing to defend your case. DMV hearing representation is available separately.

Domestic Violence

Sensitive, discreet, and effective. We work to de-escalate, challenge the evidence, and prevent a charge from defining your future.

Learn More

Petty Theft & Shoplifting

A "minor" theft conviction can block jobs, housing, and immigration relief for years. We fight for diversion, civil compromise, and dismissal.

Learn More

Vandalism & Property Crimes

The line between misdemeanor and felony is a dollar amount — and that number is almost always contestable. We challenge every dollar.

Learn More

Misdemeanor Defense

Trespassing. Disorderly conduct. Drug possession. Resisting arrest. Whatever the charge — we review, challenge, and fight.

Expungements & Record Clearing

"Dismissed" doesn't mean "invisible." We handle PC 1203.4, arrest sealing, and Prop 47 reductions to clean up your record for good.

The Approach

"I prepare. I negotiate. I litigate."

Case Analysis

We don't take the police report at face value. Every case gets a thorough review — examining evidence, identifying weaknesses in the prosecution's case, and building a defense strategy from the facts.

Negotiation

Most cases don't go to trial — and they shouldn't have to. We work toward favorable resolutions efficiently and discreetly.

Litigation

Motions to suppress. Motions to dismiss. Jury trials. When the prosecution won't offer a reasonable resolution, we take the case as far as it needs to go.

Advocacy

You're not a case number. You're a person with a job, a family, and a future. We fight for the whole human being.

Transparent Pricing

Flat-Fee Defense. Starting at $2,800.

Criminal defense shouldn't come with financial anxiety on top of everything else. One fee covers thorough case preparation, all pre-trial court appearances, motions, and negotiation. No hourly billing. No surprise invoices.

Thorough Case Preparation

We don't rubber-stamp the police report. We review the evidence carefully, identify gaps in the prosecution's case, and build your defense on the details.

Motions & Court Appearances

Suppression motions, dismissal motions, plea negotiation, arraignment through resolution — all included.

Direct Communication

Phone calls, emails, case updates. You talk to Ahmed — not a receptionist.

Yes. Even a "minor" misdemeanor conviction shows up on background checks, affects employment, disqualifies you from housing, and can create immigration consequences. A lawyer can often get charges reduced or dismissed entirely.

At arraignment, the judge reads the charges and you enter a plea. We handle this for you — and in many misdemeanor cases, we can appear on your behalf so you don't have to miss work.

Many misdemeanor cases in San Francisco are eligible for diversion programs, civil compromise, or dismissal in the interest of justice. During your consultation, we'll assess the specific options available for your charges.

It depends on the outcome. A conviction will typically appear. A dismissal may still show as an arrest unless you take additional steps to seal the record. We advise every client on record-clearing options as part of our representation.
