5 /5 Bobby Melanson: I am so deeply thankful to Attorney Joseph L. Coimbra and his amazing law firm. I was long ago convicted for a crime that landed me on the lifetime SO registry. When I tried to get help from other lawyers, they all told me nothing could be done and just resign myself to living in this endless nightmare of being shamed and shunned for my past conviction,. Then I met with Attorney Joe Coimbra, who ONLY awyer I felt really listened to me, really cared for what I had to say and the terrible things I’ve been through as a RSO. He cautioned me he couldn’t make any guarantees at all, but he would find a way to fight my registrant status. As I write this with tears of joy streaming down my face, I thank the Lord I met this incredible advocate for so many Registrants through all of California. He got ready for my case like I’ve never seen anybody get ready for anything. He filed my petition almost expecting the DA to fight my petition. HE WON AND I’M NOT ON THE REGISTRY ANYMORE! I have my life back and I’m able to work and be part of a society I was kept out of for so many years. Please please please don’t even think of having anybody else work on your case then Attorney Joe Coimbra. You won’t regret it.
