Ali has always stepped up to the plate when I have needed his services for my practice and often last minute. Highly recommended!

Working with the Santaella Legal Group was above and beyond my expectations, especially since this was my first time dealing with a very complicated legal matter. Having Ivette Santaella as my attorney was a very pleasant experience. Ivette is a very caring, dedicate and compassionate person who kept me informed every step of the way. Her guidance was invaluable, and she was always approachable. Working with attorneys is not an easy feat (I’ve dealth with 6 with my particular case) and has it’s challenges but I did not find this to be the case with Ivette. Thank you Santaella Legal Group for all your help.

I have been working with Ivette for a while and they are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and one of the top Estate Planning Law Firms in the Bay. I would highly recommend.

Ali's counsel has been invaluable during our practice transition and lease negotiation. He is prompt, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend his firm.

A father who for years submitted to the demands of the ex spouse. It was time to take a stand in a child custody battle . Katrin is what I call next level representation. Her attention to detail, experience, and communication was hands down far above the competition. Importantly the results. Katrin, thank you for bringing my children back to my home. I’m eternally grateful you were by my side.

Loved working with Ali! It is highly recommended for attorneys to look over your job contracts. Ali helped me look for potential red flags in my dental associate contract. He also told me about areas that I could negotiate such as compensation and clauses. He really cares about your wellbeing and wants to set you up for success. Will definitely work with Ali in the future if needed

Ivette is incredibly responsive and helpful. She got back to me within 20 minutes with a helpful answer to a question about the appropriate costs for a trustee.

Just called Ivette she was rude, hung up the phone the first time when I asked who I was speaking to. Called back again. She uses a robo call to screen incoming calls. Second time she answered the phone she didn’t tell me her name so I politely asked may I know who I’m speaking to. She was unprofessional and yelled at me “ you called me who the hell are you”? I don’t expect a professional to behave like this, arrogant. Do not use this lawyer.
