Think Defense APLC - Irvine, CA

Strategic Criminal Defense and Business Litigation in Irvine

Facing state or federal criminal charges can upend your personal freedom, professional licensing, and reputation. When government agencies launch investigations or prosecutors file felony complaints, having formidable trial counsel in your corner is essential. Think Defense APLC, located at One Park Plaza in Irvine, California, provides aggressive and commanding legal defense for individuals, executives, and corporate entities confronting criminal charges and high-stakes civil disputes. Founded by trial attorney Mani Dabiri, a former Assistant United States Attorney, the firm combines extensive federal courtroom experience with sharp litigation acumen to dismantle government allegations and safeguard client futures.

The Former Federal Prosecutor Advantage in State and Federal Courts

What distinguishes Think Defense APLC is an intimate understanding of how prosecutors build cases. Before establishing the firm, attorney Mani Dabiri served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in Los Angeles and Orange County, directing grand jury investigations and prosecuting complex federal crimes. Prior to government service, he litigated high-exposure commercial cases at O'Melveny and Myers, one of the premier global law firms, and clerked for a federal district judge in Los Angeles. Holding a law degree from the USC Gould School of Law, where he earned the James C. Holbrook Award and served as Senior Editor of the Southern California Law Review, attorney Dabiri anticipates government maneuvers and identifies critical evidentiary flaws to achieve dismissals and acquittals.
