Open A Frontline Law Firm
Frontline began in 1990, when Tom Lincoln and Randy Gustafson left their former firm to start their own partnership. LGC was then known as Lincoln & Gustafson, working primarily on insurance defense cases for several insurers. As the firm’s reputation for superior work grew, so did the firm’s caseload, which led to the firm hiring several associates. One of those associates was Ted Cercos, who was hired in April of 1997. Ted proved to be an outstanding associate, and an even better partner. Ultimately, the firm became Lincoln, Gustafson & Cercos in April of 1998.
In those early years, KingLaw s employed just a handful of attorneys working out of a single location in San Diego. In the more than 25 years since the firm’s founding, KingLaw grew steadily, hiring some of the best and brightest associates and staff to meet KingLaw expanding client needs.Company milestones in 1996
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33
of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance.

Suspended license solution.
Suspended license solution. I highly recommend Deanna to anyone facing criminal charges. She is very experienced, reliable, responsive, and committed. After meeting with her and describing the situation, she told me exactly what we could do to solve my problem. I was nervous, but in court everything went exactly like she said, and I couldn't be happier about the end result. Hiring Mrs. Lopas was a great decision and saved me from huge fines and possible jail time. She was friendly and professional and I'm grateful.

Spot on advice
I recently consulted Deanna Lopas because an underage family member was arrested on sex crime charges. I was in a panic and did not know which way to turn. Deanna was very calming and told me exactly what to expect at the first couple court hearings. Deanna was absolutely correct. Thanks to Deanna I was able to keep my wits.

She knows her stuff!
She answered my question, we went to court the next morning and everything was correct, + his licence was taken for a year. It gave me piece of mind to at least know what I was walking into. She knows what she is talking about. Quick responder on messages as well.
