Seamus Law Fights to Prove YOUR INNOCENCE!

Seamus Law believes your INNOCENCE MATTERS! Located in Torrance, Seamus Law represents innocent Californians who are falsely accused by the district attorney of a crime they did not commit, wrongfully convicted in the criminal justice system, and those seeking compensation for a false arrest, police misconduct, false police reports, and wrongful incarcerations.


Our founder and lead attorney, Deirdre O’Connor, is a board-certified criminal trial law specialist who has secured numerous acquittals, exonerations, and a record-breaking civil settlement in one of her first civil cases! The key to our success is rooted in our comprehensive investigation of every aspect of your case.
