I previously met with 3 other estate planning attorneys, it was clear to us that Nick Montalto was the most knowledgeable and experienced. Also these guys are super. This is NOT a boilerplate estate planning firm that offers 5 types of trusts and pushes you to fit into 1 of the molds. Everything was tailored to my needs and wishes.. I also discovered that unlike most of the attorneys we met with, Nick has an extensive background in Estate Planning and I would recommend him in heartbeat and recently had him rework our estate plan and he is doing my mom's estate plan as well.

I had a small amount of medical cannabis and was arrested for DUI under marijuana influence. I hired the Chesley Law Firm and could not have been happier with the outcome. The police officer exaggerated his observations and made up some false claims as to my bloodshot appearance and the smell of smoke, etc. David never beat around the bush and told everybody straight up the honest truth, and that's what I really love about working with him. He brought a copy of my prescription and had my doctor and him sit down for a meeting with the D.A. about my condition. With David’s help, they saw through my POV and I was let off with a warning from the Judge. Easy peasy. Thanks a lot!

From the first phone call to documents in hand I felt 100% about using their services. Sandy and Nick were top notch

Great attorneys, Very reasonable fees. Nick Montalto is an incredibly caring professional, who goes the extra mile for you. He sincerely cares about making your experience a good one, and is gifted in explaining complicated legal jargon into simple to understand English. Also Nicky Montalto takes his time with everyone, never rushes or pressures you into hiring until you're ready. Highly recommend them to anyone interested in setting up their estate plan.

Great estate planning attorneys and great experience. Mr Montalto is very friendly and professional. It's obvious he loves what he does and loves helping others. The rates and costs were reasonable, and Nick really goes the extra mile without asking or charging more money. Everything was a low flat fee, nothing rushed, and they never changed the costs even though the complexity of my situation evolved since the initial consultation which was a relief. The staff is also very helpful and caring, and not in that forced sort of way. You can tell these are good people who are highly experienced and skilled.

I was looking for an attorney to help me with a few small business contracts some years ago and found these guys on a recommendation. Nick Montalto was so helpful that I decided to go ahead and convert my small business to a legal corporation with him and the office (Sanders & Montalto). Nick understood my situation quickly and was able to provide solid legal advice that gave me an accurate picture of my legal options in a way that no other lawyer had previously done. His experience was invaluable to me and I really appreciate the time he took to look at my situation in detail. I felt like I could trust him immediately and will definitely be contacting this office for my legal needs in the future. Thanks! - I highly recommend Sanders & Montalto for anyone looking for an experienced lawyer who cares about their clients.

i was accused and charged before i knew it the police officer was very rude and i was truly scared not knowing how to approach this situation i contacted a lawyer the first one gave me some options and did not seem promising at all after talking to some people i ended up talking to this law firm and i was much more reassured, finally someone who would come trough for me and they did! Thank you David Chesley and associates.

After being referred to a different attorney through a co-worker who wanted DOUBLE the fees that Mr. Brennan was asking, I remembered the Los Angeles County Bar Association website- not only did the original attorney NOT come up on their website, but I was emailed Mr. Brennan's info within a day, and he was in contact with me almost immediately after that. Bankruptcy is not something to enter into lightly, and I had reservations in doing so, but had no choice after some 'hard knocks' in the last 5 years. Mr. Brennan was unequivocally a 'Godsend' to me. He was professional, yet kind, set my mind at ease each time I had yet another question for him. I remember telling him it seems almost too simple, but that things can happen to people that are beyond their control- his response? "Yes, and why beat people up for it?" Awesome! Knowledgeable lawyer, nice man! If I ever have a family member or friend in need of a bankruptcy lawyer, they will be sent straight to this man!!

The bankruptcy was a difficult decision for us, and we are so appreciative for Mr. Brennan's excellent work and treating us with respect. We selected him based on his bio/schooling/credentials/clients' reviews and our first phone conversation. He was very patient and professional. putting us at ease from our very first meeting. He answered all of our questions and kept us informed throughout. Mr. Brennan was well-prepared and made sure we were, also. He was an excellent, professional representative at our hearing.

My family hired Kirk Brennan after an initial interview we had with him about the services he offered. Prior to this my family was convinced that we would need to file a Chapter 13, yet after we discussed our entire situation and what our family wanted as a result; Mr. Brennan explained thoroughly that a better option was available. Mr. Brennan patiently and professionally communicated with my family about alternative benefits of our case that took away the stress and anxiety of our situation. He knew the California laws well and gave a wealth of knowledge far before we even committed to hiring him! I knew that someone with the patience and respect shown at that meeting would be of Great service for my family. Kirk Brennan guided us through each step of our case, was always available and responsive, helpful when things didn't make sense to us, and was an overall Champion for our case. His services were invaluable!!!

If you are looking for a GREAT Bankruptcy Attorney, Kirk is the man. He handled my case well. He was very kind,understanding, and very very efficient. He answered all my calls, and always knew who I was when I called, and address me by my Name!! I really felt like I met a new friend, who gave me a FRESH START!! You will not be DISAPPOINTED.
