Trusted by Attorneys

Mr. Okorocha has an exceptional understanding of forensic science and evidence. I consult with him on any case that involves questionable science. He has a unique ability to point out flawed evidence and explain the flaws to attorneys, judges, and jurors.  Mr. Okorocha is an invaluable resource in any case involving forensic toxicology evidence.

Okorie Okorocha knows the science of DUIs inside and out. The man is a living encyclopedia when it comes research and literature on the subject; providing accurate information and citations to peer reviewed publications at the drop of a hat. Paired with his firsthand research, status as a published author, and incomparable understanding of the law, you’ll be hard pressed to find an expert that impresses jurors more.

A Rare Expert and Powerful Advocate

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Okorie Okorocha on many DUI & DMV hearings involving toxicology, and I can say without hesitation—he is worth every cent & then some. His dual expertise as both a seasoned trial attorney and board-certified forensic toxicologist is unmatched & unique. Mr. Okorocha explained the most technical scientific issues in clear, persuasive terms that were critical to our repeated success.

He was not only a commanding presence in the courtroom but also incredibly responsive, professional, and passionate about justice. His attention to detail and commitment to ethical advocacy stood out at every stage. I’ve worked with many experts and attorneys, but Mr. Okorocha is in a league of his own.

If you need someone who can bridge the gap between science and the law with absolute precision and power, he’s the one. Highly recommend.

Mr. Okorocha is the premier expert in forensic toxicology. His opinions are fact and science-based.

Okorie Okorocha’s mastery of complex scientific concepts isn’t just academic — it’s strategic. Okorie will teach you, your client, and twelve members of the jury exactly how flawed the prosecution’s case is.

In a challenging DUI collision case involving a .15 BAC, if it weren’t for O’s compelling and accessible scientific explanation of both breathalyzer overreporting during the absorption phase and diabetic ketoacidosis, we would not have secured our righteous not guilty verdicts. Okorie’s passion for justice, ability to simplify the science, and fighter’s mentality make him an indispensable ally at trial. If I get so much as a traffic ticket, you better believe I’ll be giving Okorie a call.

Okorie has consulted and testified in several trials I’ve had so far involving complex scientific defenses for alcohol and drug DUI cases. In every single one of those cases, win or lose, Okorie has provided jurors with a critical and unbiased perspective that only a true insider in understanding the toxicological science of a DUI case can do.

After speaking with jurors in numerous cases after the verdict, jurors have repeatedly told me that regardless of outcome, they truly learned something about how the human body processes alcohol from Mr. Okorocha’s testimony in simple and easy-to-understand language.

The science is the science, and in every case Mr. Okorcha has testified and consulted in, he is matter-of-fact both with the flaws in your case and in the government’s case.

He prides himself on giving back to the community and testifying for cases with public defender offices (often pro bono) simply to show that there are flaws in government science and that jurors ought to know about them.

As far as knowing the science and being sincere in his testimony, there are few experts out there of his caliber.

Okorie did his deposition on a case we had litigated for six years. A week later we reached a very fair settlement.

Simply the best, look no further!

I have long believed that the hostility of the LA courts to Okorocha is racially motivated, since I have used him as an expert innumerable times over the years and his expertise exceeds that of all other forensic experts on either side. I think it is CJP time.

That was a thrilling courtroom performance by Mr. Toxicology Okorocha today!

Okorie Okorocha held to be excellent attorney by Federal and State court judges.

Petitioner then asked the court for leniency, based on the fact that he was a family man with a wife and two daughters, he was not in a gang, and he went to church. (3RT at 441.) The court then imposed the sentence and advised Petitioner of his right to appeal. (3RT at 441–44.) The court then addressed Petitioner’s comments about his retained counsel, as follows:

*7 I’ll also indicate that [Petitioner] has indicated that he is not represented right. Two things I want to mention in this case. Mr. Okorocha is privately retained counsel, and I think he is not only a competent attorney but quite an excellent one. He got rid of count 1 which is the life tail count not exposing [Petitioner] on the life charge in this case.
[I]n regards to the handling and calling of the experts and what not in this particular case, I will indicate for the record that a defendant has no right to the defense of his choice or the defense tactic of his choice, it belongs to the lawyer and the lawyer did a good job in this case and I cite [People v. Vaughn (1969) 71 Cal.2d 406].
