Daroca Sylvan Phil

Heavy hitter!!! Mr. Daroca although arrogant has a gift to beat the odds. Once you get past his arrogant shield, you’ll see that his confidence is well earned as he is well known and well feared. He cleared up my charge having been falsely arrested and accused of a crime that didn’t happen, effortlessly won but I confidently say that without him I would of been on the classic railroaded program. Thanks Phil!!!

Mr Varoca went above and beyond the call of duty and won a case for me that was probably next to impossible to win, because of the fact the I was falsely arrested searched and my reputation with my family and neighbors was ruined. And boy does he know his way around a courtroom. I have my life back and highly recommend him to anyone who’s trying to beat the odds.

Awful experience! This man is a thief… doesnot do anything for you. looks good! But has no conscience of taking your money… dont use his services!

Pathetic, Corrupt Attorney. Worst Experience Ever! Avoid Him Like The Plague!
I was falsely accused of a misdemeanor some years back. It was minor and should have been easy by anyone’s standards, to prove my uninvolvement. Unfortunately, through a friend of a friend of a friend’s attorney, I ended up with Sylvan Phil Daroca, who NEVER ONCE met with me in person –ever! He did not EVER inform me of my Right to Confornt My Accuser (just that could have ended the matter right there, but wouldn’t have made as much $ for Mr Daroca).
Instead, Mr «Da Joka» took his sweet time, made sure to collect his thousands from me, while I sweated. From the first day i spoke with him via phone, he wanted me to plea bargain –a No Contest… .
«Sorry, No Way, Mr Daroca. i did NOTHING wrong. i want to go to court and fight it.» This upset Mr Daroca greatly, as it might involve more for him than cashing my checks and walking (literally) across the street to the courthouse to file a paper or two. When this pathetic excuse for a lawyer stopped returning my calls if I suggested ANYTHING other than ‘plea bargaining,” I got worried and went to his office in person. Of course, not there! His secretary gave what i discovered is the standard response about «she never sees him, never in the office, etc.» i talked to the other attorney in his office and was rudely brushed away as if I were a leper.
With literally days to go before my court date, I tried a different approach, against my better judgement: I left him a voice mail that I would be willing to discuss plea bargaining, after all.
WITHIN MINUTES, there’s a call from a jovial Mr. Daroca — suddenly available again, suddenly willing to talk and take my calls! Wow! What a change.
This made everything so much easier for ‘Phil’. Now he could just call his «friend» the D.A. (they were ‘very close’ he told me). Glad I was able to make things so easy for him — no need to meet me, no need to plan a «defense» of any sort. Just collect his money and bail out on another low-​life paean client such as myself.
To this day, I regret EVER calling this sub-​human attorney. Please, friends — learn your rights, know what your lawyer is supposed to do. You’re paying him — he should be fighting for you. I had no experience with attorneys and got burned completely, to the point of STILL having to basically say i was guilty of a crime and lining DaRoca’s pockets
I’m sure he had a smug laugh on me afterward, but Unilocal is here now, and I can spread the word here, as I have to numerous other attorneys, friends, websites, and organizations I speak with. Sylvan P Daroca is a Disgrace to the Law Profession. Let’s remove him from the bar.

This used car salesman promised a defense but even though paid $ 15,000 he spent less than 2 hours in court (5 minute continuances) and pre lim hearing which he didn’t prepare for resulting in more legal just so he could get more money out of me
He has experience but uses that more on the client than in the court/​da where it counts
