Roxanne Mosley offered quick, efficient and reasonably priced services that lifted a longtime burden off my back. It was worth it to let Ms. Mosley handle everything so that I didn't need to travel to Southern California in person.

A couple year ago I got arrested for Peyote. For those who don't know what that is; It's a spineless Cactus plant that the Natives uses for Ceremonies (Prayer Meetings). Which I didn't know at the time was Classified as a(drug), an Illegal substance?! Anyway, I was racially profiled by a Police Officer, and eventually consented to a search upon which he discovered a small amount of peyote in my bag. I was arrested and charged with a Felony. I contacted Roxanne Mosley right away, and got her on the Case. About 18hrs later I was released from the Alameda County jail. In less than a Month the case was thrown out. I was a free and innocent man once again. Without proper representation the System can swallow you up. Her passion is to avoid that by any means. I'm just one out of many, that I have knowledge of her helping. And she can definitely help you. Thanks to the Law Office of Roxanne Mosley! I've known miss Mosley for several years, and I personally Consider her as a Professional ass kicker when it comes down to what she does. Now I keep her in my front pocket. :) So if you need a real good Lawyer, whenever you need a good Lawyer; don't hesitate to call on The Law Office of Roxanne Mosley. She'll work for you, work with you, and make you feel secure working with her. You deserve the best!....Me? "I trust only those who are trust worthy!" With that I say;
......Much Success Ms. Mosley!

Roxanne was pleasant but relentless in pursuit of justice fo my case. She was thorough when it came to the evidence in support of my position and well prepared. Due to her experience, I retained peace of mind and was very happy with my outcome.

I had a DUI case recently and she was there for me. She explained everything to me. I was so afraid I was going to loose my job.. She got my case dismissed! It was a close call. The blood alcohol was an .08. This Attorney actually did discovery on a DUI case. She went way beyond what my buddies attorney did for him. She found out about the blow machine not being calibrated. something like that. anyway. Dismissed. Love her! Thank you thank you thank you!

Roxanne Mosely was also the worst decision we (my fiancé and I) made. While she seems knowledgeable about family law and sympathetic to a single dad going through a custody batter with a manipulative ex. Roxanne Mosely represented me for just the days I went to court, while my fiancé filled out, filled, and served my ex my court documents. In 2009, Roxanne showed up for one court date out of two. In 2011, I filed for a change in custody again, trying to gain some weekend time with my daughter, Roxanne showed up for one court date out of four. Roxanne collected her fees and did not show up to court for the last three hearing, one of them being an evidentiary hearing, in while the date was changed that same week, agreed upon by both attorneys, and I was left standing in court like an idiot and broke. You would think the ethical thing to do, would be to refund the client the unused fees. Nope! Not only did she not return my money, she never once sent me a statement showing me where my fees went. My fiancé is familiar with this tactic, because me fiancés old attorney was disbarred from practicing law because she was not sending our statements, refunding residual retainer, and spending the retainers instead of putting them on the clients account.
Roxanne kept my money and refused to return my phone calls. Finally, my fiancé and I resorted to blocking our phone number just to get her to answer the phone. The conversations always ended quickly, with Roxanne saying she was in court and would call me back. While I could hear her in a echoing bathroom fumbling with what sounded like the things she uses to get ready in the morning. She never did call me back.
When I tried to file for a substitution of attorney, it took almost 4-months to get the papers back from her with a signature. I think she probably has too many things on her plate, it does not make it right to take advantage of people. I think she could be a great attorney if she conducted herself ethically.
I did not find out months after my last court date that opposing council sent Roxanne papers that I was never notified about by phone or mail.
To Roxanne,
I have read your comments on here. You are making excuses and you know what they say about excuses… Make a change, be the change, and live the change. On a personal level, I felt you were a great and kindhearted individual. However, as an attorney, you are full of false promises with no follow through. My fiancé and I knew the possibilities of outcomes, but your took my money and when I told you I wanted it back you told me I racked up fees for our phone calls. I added up my calls to you, and they came nowhere near what I paid you. You also stated you where sending an itemized bill, I have NEVER received one.

Attorney John Kakinuki tremendously helped me with my divorce proceedings. He said divorce wasn’t his specialty but mine was an international marriage and he is expert in international work and was recommended by mutual friends in our church, so he worked hard to make sure everything went right.
He provided me with excellent service. He gave me a lot of professional advised as to how and what I should expect from the court.
He is very very professional, very knowledgeable. I was so impressed by his work ethics. My case went quick and smoothly because he paid attention to all the details and paperwork’s required by the court.
Honestly at that time I don’t care about anything. Divorce was a nightmare for me. All I know is I just want it done and get over it. Even today when I should forget the proceedings. I still recall how Attorney John Kakinuki treated my case very well. He gained my respect and admiration because he was not only there to represent but he also gave me emotionally support and I felt it.
He is such a great lawyer with integrity and a big heart.
If you need legal advice or question I will definitely, highly recommend Attorney John Kakinuki and you will not regret it.

I was referred to John Kakinuki by a former colleague from the Baker & Mackenzie law firm. He was recommended as a professional with great integrity and an impressive history of experience in litigation and Intellectual Property both in the US and in Japan.
Even though my case was not related to intellectual property, John Kakinuki agreed to meet me and advise me about a case in Japan involving my family. From the very first meeting, I was impressed by his compassion and sense of justice as he provided me valuable advice at no charge.
Mr. Kakinuki demonstrated a profound knowledge of the Japanese justice system and Japanese lawyers' work ethics. He speaks with the confidence of many years of professional experience with litigation in Japan and in the US.
John Kakinuki reached out to his network of law professionals in Japan and procured a Japanese lawyer that spoke English and was willing to work for my family (who actually lives in Brazil). This was an enoumous help given the fact that the majority of Japanese lawyers will not work for foreigners. Mr. Kakinuki kindly initiated our first contact with the lawyer in Japan and helped us get started with our case.
I would highly recommend John Kakinuki as a lawyer. He is an impressive litigator who presents arguments and facts based on knowledge and experience when giving advice. I have great respect and admiration for his professionalism.

Molly Jacobson assisted me with my estate planning. After my husband and I purchased a home and had our first child, we needed to get all of our affairs in order. She was extremely informative and efficient throughout the entire process. She was also incredibly responsive to all of our questions, phone calls and emails. I would highly recommend Ms. Jacobson.

When my wife and I found our son in very grave legal jeopardy, we consulted with and hired Bob. During this extremely difficult time for our entire family, Bob's pragmatic, thoughtful approach kept us updated, cautiously hopeful, and grounded in the fact that we have someone who genuinely cares about our son's fate and who is also strategic and skilled at maneuvering through the evolving dynamics of a very complicated case. We were particularly grateful to Bob for remaining accessible and easy to talk to during this entire ordeal, especially under the most direst of developments and dynamics. The outcome of this dark chapter in our family's history exceeded our expectations, and we are forever grateful to Bob. We can't recommend him high enough for anyone looking for legal council.

If your case is in a different state, the lawyer must be licensed in that state to represent you.

-
International Representation:
For cases outside the United States, different rules apply, and the lawyer may need to comply with the foreign country's legal requirements or collaborate with local counsel.
It's important to discuss your specific situation with the lawyer to determine if they can represent you in the desired jurisdiction and what steps may be necessary to do so.
