Ms Mazur was an exemplary appellate lawyer in every respect. I was quite dismayed at being sued while living outside of the country. Ms Mazur demonstrated the utmost expertise in the law while also being very kind and understanding of my difficulties. She won my appellate case with a strikingly well-formulated counterargument not only pointing out the true interpretation of the law but also analyzing all of the weaknesses of the plaintiff's brief. At the same time she conducted interactions such as communicating about a procedural matter with my trial-lawyer with the highest level of professionalism, responsiveness, and courtesy. Having avoided a great deal of unjust oppression by the plaintiff on account of her victory, I would even say that I am inspired to learn from her example in my own professional life.

I hired Janice Mazur to represent me in appellate court with three Judges hearing my case. My theater was built in 1947 with a history of owners who have used this theater for film, film premieres, movies, stage, plays, music and other uses, etc. Exactly what I have been using it for since 2009, sameas other owners. I won my case in Superior court two times, the Judges ruled in my favor. My case was appealed by the defendants and their lawyers. I contacted Janice Mazur after researching her, I hired her to represent me. She was successful in representing me in my case to the Judges in all areas, she was articulate and correct. Her presentation was spot on, and the appellate court made a decision in 2 days instead of 6 to 8 months. Because of Janice’s preparation and presentation we won our case. Her fees were fair and affordable and worth every penny. I was proud to have her represent me. I’m indebted to her!

I had the pleasure of working with Janice Mazur on a challenging appellate case, and I am thoroughly impressed with her performance. Janice’s extensive knowledge of the law was evident throughout the process, and her ability to break down complex legal jargon into understandable terms was invaluable.
She was not only highly professional but also personable, which made working with her a positive experience. Her responsiveness to emails and phone calls was exceptional, and she remained attentive and direct in all communications. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, we successfully won a difficult case.
I highly recommend Janice Mazur for anyone seeking a skilled and approachable appellate lawyer.

There was important evidence missing from her documents that could have jeopardized my case.
Fortunately the appeal judges did not miss anything and they affirmed. Working from a different state is not always helpful.

Janice has been extremely responsive and up front with us as she represented and guided us through a complex set of California Government Code and Civil Code Actions. She is like a precision guided rocket, cutting through imprecise understandings of the law.

Janice Mazur is a highly skilled and talented professional who knows the law.
She's a great listener, a smart thinker and an excellent communicator.
Janice was accessible, compassionate, caring and always realistic about goals and expectations and her fees are extremely fair.
After years of being on a seemingly endless "legal Ferris wheel" I retained Janice to review two cases for possible appeals.
Before any appeal was requested and upon reviewing voluminous records in these cases, Ms. Mazur determined that the plaintiffs deceptively and improperly obtained a default judgement against me.
She filed a motion, the court agreed and granted our motion to vacate a 10 year old wrongly obtained Judgement null and void.
She was instrumental in restoring my life to normal.
Thank you Janice!

Janice did a great job understanding the complexities of our case. She was able to research those areas thoroughly to provide us with the best possibility of success. She was straight up front with our chances of prevailing on appeal and did a great job preparing our appeals brief to the Supreme Court. I have had other appellate Lawyers in the past and would choose her over any of our past Lawyers. Great lawyer !! You won't be disappointed !!! We even got a refund of the balance not used from our retainer. That is honesty at its best. Highly recommended.

I found Ms Mazur on Avvo after a 2 year legal nightmare which ended with a misdemeanor conviction. My trust in lawyers and in the justice system was at an all time low when I posted a question on Avvo. Janice contacted me promptly as I had another court date in 2 days. She was direct and focused and provided "thoughtful answers" vs scripted generalities. I told her at the beginning of the call that my finances were limited so she could excuse herself if she wanted to . Instead Janice was generous with her time and knowledge and provided her professional opinion about how I should move forward in my pursuit of justice. Janice thoroughly explained my possible options. She spent the time to educate me on the basics of misdemeanor appeals and gave examples of appeals vs writs of habeas corpus. I now have a realistic idea of the work that will be required to do this and I am motivated to pick myself up and get busy in my defense. She didn't have any obligation to me and after the way I have been trreated by previous counsel I diidn't expect it. Janice has restored my faith in the legal community. Janice is my reminder that for every unethical attorney working there are attorneys with a deep sense of integrity and who will extend themselves beyond the call of duty . Finally Ms Mazur provided a personal referral of a colleague for a related issue ithat arose out of this case. Thank you
Janice .

As a civil litigator, I have had to hire Appelate lawyers several times in the past 24 years. I have never had a more pleasent experience with an appelate lawyer as I have with Janice, who incedentally I have never personally seen! She has handles two matters for me, as appellant, one invloving a major victory and a reversal. On top of that her fees are extremely reasonable and her billing practices very fair. I highly recommend her.
