Stuart was recommended to us by our previous attorney who retired. While he currently has too big of a caseload - I can understand, because he's pretty great - he has guided us in the right direction and also provided us with recommendations for great colleagues. I'm keeping Stuart's info if the situation ever arises that we need to speak with him again. We greatly appreciate his professionalism.

I had a complex Restraing Order issue as a defendant, including years of dealing with a vexatious litigant. I was planning on going Pro Se, as I couldn't find a responsive attorney after two weeks of diligent search. Then I made the right call to Mellman & Mellman. They took my complex issues and simplified them. They were up front on the fee structure, started working on my case right away, included me in the drafting process to insure we had all the history correct, and had great insight to the issues of law that would be relevant to the court, and won the case on nearly the written response alone! Also recieved leave from the Court to file a motion for fees! If I could leave Six Stars I would! I highly Recomend Stuart and his team (Thanks Sarah, great work!).

I found out about Stuart from the San Diego County Bar Lawyer referral service. I have found some good lawyers through it and Stuart was no exception. My mother filed a restraining order against me (she's in the early stages of dementia and crazy) and Stuart took a few minutes of his time and several phone calls that day to review the document to say the lawyer she used was majorly incompetent and they had no case against me (especially with the overwhelming evidence I had.) He said the case would get dismissed and he even said, "You don't need my help. But if you want it I will do it for a reduced rate." The raving reviews are all true. Thank you Stuart.

Stuart Mellmen along with his wife Juanita Mellmen work for the law firm Mellmen. This couple of lawyers are both highly unprofessional to both opposing parties and opposing attorneys. Stuart & Juanita accuse opposing parties of very serious things such as an ongoing homicide case with a missing shooter, without having any evidence to back up their accusations. How unprofessional and disrespectful of a “lawyer” they could get into serious trouble for this. Overall, I want to let everyone know that is looking for a landlord/ tenant attorney this law firm is a 0 for me.

Available after hours. Responsive follow-up. Well crafted documents. I would recommend MM for any future actions. Answers all questions as an excellent plaintiff representative! Bravo and kudos!

Stuart Mellman has provided me with outstanding services time and time again over the years. I am a business lawyer and don't have time to deal with the complex and difficult matters that Stuart has taken on for me. I would not hesitate to recommend Stuart to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will provide excellent service, very cost-effectively (saving substantial money in potential legal fees), and who will aggressively represent his clients' interests. The first project Stuart took on for me entailed a complex IRS audit that required meticulous review of documents. Stuart packaged the queries from the IRS with strategic and detailed explanations, resulting in a great outcome, saving me over $100,00 in potential taxes and penalties. I then discovered that Stuart is an amazing litigator. In a dispute against a lawyer for malpractice, he expeditiously prepare an outstanding complaint and brief, again saving me time and money. In negotiating the settlement, Stuart was aggressive and relentless in representing my interests. Here again, his excellent strategies resulted in a great settlement, within 60 days of his filing the lawsuit! Finally, Stuart was my lawyer in a lawsuit against an accountant based on gross negligence. The judgment Stuart obtained in the case, over $100,000, was much better than I could have imagined!! Not only did he obtain a great judgment, he has then proceeded to handle the collection effort! I have worked with numerous lawyers over the more than 20 years I've been practicing and greatly appreciate the talent and dedication I have found in Stuart!

Stuart is an excellent lawyer. The insurance company denied my claim and would not give me any money for my injuries. Stuart took them to court... and beat them! I highly endorse him.

Mr. Mellman assisted me with business litigation and obtained a favorable outcome. I highly recommend and have referred Stuart to friends, family and my clients.

My experience with this attorney involving an IRS Tax Matter has resulted in a satisfactory conclusion. His advice has always been "dead on". He was always very quick to respond to emails and any other forms of communication.

The adjectives above are just a few that would adequately describe Stuart Mellman, Attorney at Law. Our family has had the pleasure of working with Stuart throughout this year and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is involved in a complicated matter that requires research, perseverance and the assurance that every detail is investigated. Stuart’s high standard of excellence and integrity are beyond compare and is greatly appreciated by our entire family
