Super helpful. He was clear and direct but you can tell he’s a man of the people. I would highly recommend for tenant litigation/mediation advice. Thank you Aaron!

I endorse this lawyer. A passionate and skilled advocate ready for a challenge. An attorney who will fight you!

Valery is a young star who saved my case. Another lawyer had made a mess of things by trying to hide crucial information from the court. Valery fixed everything and achieved an outcome that was optimal for our family. A few points about Valery: (1) she is persuasive and spirited in defending her clients. She makes strong points and won't give up even when she faces heavy opposition. Even when the judge or DA get loud or aggressive, Valery just gets aggressive herself. (2) she has empathy for her clients. I am a young housewife and am currently dealing with a medical situation. Valery was understanding, listened to my family's needs, and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for my family. Even when our baby would cry on the phone when we were talking to her, she was understanding and did not complain. (3) she is a moral and upstanding person. She was outraged by the irresponsible behavior of our previous lawyer and we felt like she was not just fighting for us, she was fighting to make sure the right thing happened and justice was achieved. (4) she is a fantastic logical thinker. She was able to quickly assess the whole picture of the case and identify the key information we needed to present to the judge. After she did this, the whole response from the court changed. She anticipated the objections she would meet and worked with us to prepare evidence in advance so that she would be successful. I like Valery a lot. I even feel glad to have met her as a friend. If you are unjustly accused of something (or just need a great lawyer who will fight for your rights), definitely go with her.

At the time we retained Ms. Nechay, my family member had already been sentenced. Valery saved the day and fixed everything. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone. Our previous attorney had deliberately misled the court and concealed the fact that we had an imminent move out of state. This led to a plea deal with terms that were terrible for our family. It could have led to a separation between our members of our family, including our young child, due to a requirement to live in a certain state that would have caused irreparable damage. Ms. Nechay completely reversed the Court's decision on the old plea and helped us secure a new plea for a reduced charge and a *much* lighter sentence that would allow us to live out of state as we required. She thoughtfully worked with us to rally key evidence and aggressively represented us against the DA. She was sensitive to the fact that the case stemmed from a medical situation. Valery was always available to communicate when we needed her, was upfront about key decisions in the case, and was a zealous advocate for our case and our rights. Our only regret is that we didn't meet her earlier in the case before our previous, dishonest lawyer began representing us. After the case, Valery continued to be helpful with follow-up matters even after her fee was already paid. She cares about doing the right thing. I would *highly* recommend Ms. Nechay to anyone who needs a defense attorney. She's a good person and a fantastic lawyer.

I don't easily TRUST. It must be earned in my book. I contacted Valery in a very panic Mom mode and she assured me in her business like tone that I had nothing to worry about. The last time this exact comment was said to me was when someone hacked my bank account and left me almost zero. So when she said, "You have nothing to worry about, I will be happy to take this case head on!" Somehow I felt relieve that I was speaking to someone who can help. This incredible and amazing attorney provided the services beyond our expectations and allowed my princess to be able to move forward into a healthy future. If you or anyone you know needs help navigating through the legal system in CA contact hashtag#valerynechay.

Extremely grateful for Ms. Nechay's service. She is beyond understanding and will do what it takes to get you out of a bind. Seeking her services was the best thing for my case, and thanks to her my case was dismissed and I couldn't be more happy.

I was given a recommendation to call Valery when I was facing several felonies in conservative San Mateo County. Her reputation was that she was caring, hardworking, and able to get results, all of which turned out to be completely true. In just a short period of time, Valery was able to get all my charges dropped down to one misdemeanor, with no jail time. I am very happy with the result and would recommend Valery in the future. Valery was very focused on my well being and being there when I need her. She is very understanding and a outstanding person.

Valerie is the best lawyer I have ever met hands-down not just because she won my case but because. She is a beautiful person inside and out she’s beyond compassionate and makes you feel comfortable as your lawyer she takes her time with getting to know you and making sure she pays attention to every detail. Please don’t let the pretty face fool you she’s a hardball and very thorough she’s going to get the job done and if she feels like her client isn’t being she’s going to go beyond the distance to get things in order there is no one else I will look at She’s a lawyer in person I will never forget she’s actually haven sent

I found Valery on Yelp and placed a call to her, she was patient and helpful while I was scared and frantic. On the first call laid out my situation, she told me to call her back at a specific time and told me how she could help. Other Attorney’s gave me advice I couldn’t take because I believed it has to be another way. She knew the other way, and calm about it all when I read the developing situations completely different! When other reviews state she uses out of the box techniques, she is just amazing!!! I don't know what I would have done without her by my side on my court appearances and over the phone. Late night phone calls and emails. She helped with my criminal charges and guided me even further than anyone could imagine on other issues I faced. She didn't give up on me when the direction went completely SOUTH! She was honestly God sent, I wish I could explain more but with Valery you can’t explain her gifts other than God sent. She is worth more than she charges!!! She went beyond what anyone could expect of an Attorney. She has the skills and back up from colleagues to get it DONE!!! I'm so grateful for Her! Your in such great hands when you work with Valery!

I called Valery when I wanted to retain an attorney for legal advice about a citation for a minor in possession. Having never hired an attorney before and living in a different city from our daughter, Valery explained the process thoroughly, and monitored the case. She was reassuring but careful in her analysis of what to do and what not to do. She also assisted in providing consult for an impending administrative Alcohol Beverage Control hearing. She helped our daughter navigate the unfamiliar territory of subpoena compliance as a witness, as well as facilitate any and all needed communications with law enforcement on her behalf. Thanks to Valery, the criminal case was closed and no filing occurred. I would highly recommend Valery as a criminal attorney as I am confident she can help anybody facing criminal charges or dealing with subpoenas.

When you hear about ideal lawyers you want them to be passionate about there work and feel for their clients to want to fight for them in every way possible. My cousin kept me in the loop on his legal situation going on out in California so I was able to see first hand how Ms. Valery went about her work. Ms. Valery fought with my cousin until the end in starting out with getting his 5 felony charges reduced to 2 misdemeanors. My cousin's life had been turned upside down but it eased his stress knowing he had a hardworking woman who was skilled in her craft fighting in his corner. My cousin had an amazing promising career that was literally just beginning and any criminal charges would have de-railed him. Although overcoming various let downs in getting the case dismissed. Ms. Valery fought her heart out til the end in getting my cousins entire case thrown out. We owe and Thank the world for Ms. Valery and her hard work!!

Valery saved both my professional and my personal life. I was accused of a sexual allegation that I was 100% innocent of. Valery represented me at trial and won. Case is dismissed and all records of arrest are being sealed. Valery took the case over after the previous lawyer failed to defend me adequately. She was professional, kind, generous with her time and persuasive to the jury. She defended me with every ounce of energy and passion that she had. She understood my pain and the pain of my family and helped us to become whole again by working around the clock to get the result I deserved. Words cannot express the gratitude we have and I recommend her services to anyone in need of an excellent attorney.
