Vidhya Babu prepared all the documentation for my estate planning needs including my Revocable Trust, Advance Healthcare Directive, Will, etc. She is very knowledgeable, thoroughly explained everything to me, and answered all of my many questions along the way. I feel so much better knowing that my estate plans are in order. I highly recommend her.

Silveira Law obtained the best possible outcome for my case. From when we first spoke, it was clear that Mr. Silveira was extremely knowledgeable about the local court system, and all the players involved. They diligently handled my case, kept me in the loop, and were able to obtain placement for me in a diversion program which led to the case being dismissed. I didn't even have to go to court once. High quality criminal lawyer, highly recommended.

My husband and I worked with Vidhya a few years ago to create an estate plan and trust. She and her team made the experience easy and stress-free for us. Vidhya is friendly, responsive, time-efficient, and thorough — just the combination you want in your attorney. I have recently worked with several other attorneys on trusts created by my family members, and I now appreciate Vidhya’s expertise and service even more. She is a gem.

The police stopped me in San Mateo County resulting in an illegal search and seizure. The incident threatened serious prison time and the private defender the court first assigned to me was trying to sell me down the river by accepting a deal I did not want to take. The BEST decision I made was calling Mike Silveira. Not only were his prices fair and reasonable but his personality and demeanor were the model for how an attorney should relate to their client. He was non-pretentious, genuine and made me feel like I actually had someone fighting in my corner. Another important factor was that he provided evidence for me to review like body-worn camera footage and officer testimony transcripts that the private defender never offered. Mike was proactive in filing a motion to suppress so thoroughly crafted that the DA ended up throwing out the charges days before the hearing. Needless to say, Mike and his team saved my skin and made it possible for me to continue to take care of my sick mother. And you just can't put a price on that kind of help. Heaven sent for sure. God bless Mike and his team!

Doris is efficient, fast, and thorough. She was so helpful and supportive; she took the time to make sure I fully understood what was happening. I highly recommend working with her!

My case was smoothly and successfully closed last week. I'm extremely lucky and grateful I chose Doris as my lawyer. It was my first time seeking legal help. I was so stressful and depressed when I decided to start the divorce process. I spent a lot of money for consultations with a few other lawyers, the feedback and impressions of complex and costly legal procedures made me feel even more hopeless. After talking to Doris, I had a total different feeling and was confident that I finally found the right person I can trust and depend on. She was busy and could not accept new cases at that time (to guarantee quality services for existing clients). I had to wait for 3 months but all is absolutely worth it. She is very knowledgeable, professional, responsive, KIND and HONEST. I deeply appreciate her hard work and fantastic job! Doris is truly a great lawyer and I would definitely recommend!

I had a DUI from years ago holding up my career, and Michael Silveira, Brian Heffern, and the Silveira team helped me out and expunged my record. Brian was amazing with communication updating me along the way and assuring me the team was doing everything they could to get our appeal approved. There was a pivot during the appeal, and Mike contacted me right away and we’re able to make the judge happy. I recommend this law team to the highest degree, very professional, organized, and great at communicating!

We had such a positive experience setting up our estate planning with Vidhya Babu. Vidhya was recommended to me from a local facebook group. My husband and I went into the process pretty much clueless and she was kind and patient in explaining all of our options but also making it as painless as possible. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

Vidya made the estate planning process easy for us. She clearly explained concepts and patiently answered questions. I was also impressed with her technical skills - she was able to quickly address our nuanced issues after another estate attorney was not able to do so.

Vidhya was amazingly helpful with amending our families trust! she went out of her way to be readily available with any questions we had. Many Thanks from my family The James'

Ten years ago, Vidhya developed a living trust for my wife and I and we remain in contact. I still go to her for any questions or concerns we may have regarding our trust or estate planning and she's always very responsive and helpful. If she doesn't have an immediate answer she will get back to us on a timely basis.

Vidhya was highly recommended by a friend. I did not have a will or trust because the task was too daunting. Vidhya's explanations made the process simple, and she is candid and knowledgeable. She was thorough and explained that institutions can interpret language about ownership in different ways. She suggested a portability return, and my tax person agreed. She responded to all my questions and was available to meet by my schedule. In addition to having a professional demeanor, she is fun to work with, and I enjoyed my meetings with her.
