Secure Your Legal Needs With Our Trusted Attorneys
Silva & Silva Attorneys at Law is a father/daughter legal team located in the heart of downtown Redlands. Meagan Silva is the future of our firm. You can expect that Meagan will be practicing law for the next 50 years.
Why is it important? Because in 50 years, you might not be here, but Meagan will continue to be available to help the beneficiaries and heirs of her clients.
Wills, Trusts, and Probates
A lot of people don’t like talking about death because it is sad or unpleasant, but you have to think about it before it is too late. We like to help people who have spent their lives working hard for their assets, making sure they go to the right place.
You can accomplish three main goals with proper estate planning. First, you have complete privacy over your affairs. Second, you will have sped your transfer after you have passed away. Third, you will avoid the probate process.
You have to decide on “who” you will trust to carry out your wishes in the event of your death or illness. Choosing the right person is essential to peace of mind.
DUI Law
Who do you want as your attorney? The master or the student? Patrick Silva has 24 years of DUI experience. He has been published in DUI reference books and has spoken in front of a hundred attorneys at conferences.
In 2017 Mr. Silva received the distinguished "President's Award". from the California DUI Lawyers Association. Out of nearly 400 DUI lawyers, Mr. Silva was recognized as the "Top" Lawyer that year for his outstanding success in defending those accused of driving under the influence.
He taught classes to lawyers about his secrets and strategies and has a nationally listened-to podcast dedicated to teaching other DUI lawyers.
Attorney Patrick J. Silva has focused his law practice on defending those who have been accused of driving under the influence. We present good folks both in the criminal court system and DMV proceedings.
Mr. Silva is certified in Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFST). He has completed 24 hours of intense training under the guidelines set forth by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
It is only with this specialized training that an attorney can effectively cross-examine a police officer on the stand about how he “screwed up” when he was giving you the test
Accident Law
Should a Lawyer Be Brutally Honest?
We believe that the best way to serve our injured clients is to be brutally honest with them about all aspects of their cases. What you won’t find here is a fancy website talking about all of our great successes. We think that is disingenuous.
Every case is different, the facts are different, and the insurance company on the other side is always different. So, how could other law firms compare those cases to yours? We don’t think that they can.
We are not one of those law firms that sign up every case and have hundreds, if not thousands, on their plate. If we can be of value, then we will take on your case and be your legal advocate.
The Human Story
A case is not about the law but more about the human story. We want to know about you, from the time you were born to the time of the accident. We need to be able to tell a story about YOU.
How has this accident changed your life? What did the accident take away from you and your family? What did the accident leave you with in your life?
If you don’t mind, we would like to come to your home and speak with you, your family, and your friends to discover the “human story.”
Why would a lawyer want to come to your home? We need to sit down with you and talk about your life. We want to see the family photos, get to understand the family dynamics and understand how this accident has affected you.
