We sought out an attorney who specializes in estate planning. And The Gellar Firm is the one we entrusted to assist with our estate planning . Michael Gellar is extremely knowledgeable, highly skilled, well-versed and up-to-date with the estate laws of CA. Michael is a family man and a hard working professional. His priority is his family, just like ours. When we met with Michael, we learned about his grandfather’s tragic death, and how the lack of his grandparent’s estate planning resulted in severe financial hardship on his widow grandmother and his father growing up as a child. It was a devastating story to hear. But from his family’s unfortunate experience, grew Michael’s desire and personal goal to help other families avoid what his family had gone through. His mission statement is very admirable and encouraging. Michael is honest and compassionate. Knowing that Michael has our family’s best interest in mind made us feel very comfortable in sharing our personal information with him. Michael made the entire process run smoothly and seamlessly. He even came to our house for our appointment knowing that it would be a comfortable and private place for us to discuss our personal information. He also anticipated that it would be convenient for us to have easy access to all of our documents and files at home that he needed to prepare our living trust and will. Michael spent a considerable amount of time and effort in asking us the right questions - thought provoking questions for which some of them we had never even thought about before, all of the “what if’s” and the possible outcomes based on the decisions we made. He provided many examples and different scenarios and gave good, sound advice, while acknowledging that ultimately all of the decisions were to be made by us. Michael communicated clearly and spoke in a way that made it easy to understand. If there was anything we didn’t understand or wasn't clear on, he would explain it in a way that was easy to understand, using simple terms since we weren’t familiar with some of the legal terms and what they meant. Life is filled with uncertainties and 2020 was a major wake up call! There’s peace and comfort in knowing that we can manage a certain amount of “control” in our lives by preparing for our family’s future with proper estate planning. A HUGE THANK YOU to Michael and his firm for helping our family with our estate planning. We HIGHLY recommend The Gellar Firm! Prioritize planning your family's future now - don't wait! You just never know what the future may hold... it's better to be safe, than sorry.

I am so happy I contacted this firm regarding my HOA and non-disclosure. We are first time home buyers and knowing that when we bought our first house that things will be peaceful ; however our HOA started harassing us in regards to the AC that we have that there’s no permit . First of All, we bought the house with the AC and that is why we closed the escrow. After 6 months living in the house that is when we started getting emails and calls from HOA that we have to get a permit for our AC. Long story short . I spoke with Michael Geller and he knows what he is doing. He is knowledgeable and up to date about the rules and regulations, he walked us through the current laws. In this tough time of Pandemic, when life is miserable enough , what you don’t need is an abusive HOA which you are paying to guide you and help not harass us to the extent that we wanted to sell our house. Michael Geller helped us with our case in a very timely manner with the best guidance and legal strategy and best outcome. We are victims in the seller non-disclosure case. The previous owner of our house didn't disclose a history of AC that has no permit. At a certain point I know we had a case and needed an attorney. We didn't want to spend time and money on a legal dispute unless he thought we would win, and that the financial outcome would justify the effort we would have to put it into it ( and it was a lot of effort) . We continued to work with Michael . Eventually we were able to reach a settlement in our favor. Overall, I think Michael did a good job helping us to understand the law and legal process , and the strengths and weaknesses of our case. I now know more about the real estate law and seller non-disclosure disputes than we ever wanted to. This was a very new situation for us , and I found the situation extremely stressful at times.I am very glad we chose Michael Geller firm to represent us and I felt that we could trust this firm and rely on their experience and expertise in real estate law and abusive HOA.

We had hired Mr Geller for our estate planning. At first, I was not sure if I needed one or how to begin but my free consultation was mainly about delineating the advantages of creating a trust and how it helps in the future. I had already read the links which were on the website which kind of helped me for preparation of my initial consultation. After that, we had a detailed meeting about designing our estate plan. I never knew these things existed and I was about to go for a cookie cutter plan online. But I’m glad that I went through this information in detail which really secures any problems which may occur in the future which we have not thought of. We realized that we take a lot of things in life for granted and having someone to design a trust in a more professional way with our wishes Inc. will avoid any kind of litigation in the future and secures our progeny’s Inheritance. I was happy with my contract and the way this attorney explained everything. He is professional and knowledgeable. I’m glad that I got this over and done with so I don’t have to worry about it anymore.

I hired The Geller Firm to help hit an agreement with my ex-husband. I was so luck to find Michael Geller. He is very professional, knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, affordable, patient, and sympathetic to my situation. It's a relief to see a lawyer who is dedicated and work very hard to helping me and not just trying to make money. I am very thankful to have The Geller Firm, and Michael Geller. Thank you

I had an employment dispute at work. I consulted the matter with Michael. He provided me with excellent legal advice and the matter resolved exactly as predicted. I trust and recommend Michael for your legal needs.

Thank You Michael for your assistance in completing our family trust. As you know, we like many others procrastinated for many years in this very important and necessary endeavor. The limited research that we conducted prior to contacting you, further convinced us that this was certainly important, but very intimidating. Then we contacted you. You put our minds at ease by explaining every step of the process, not in "attorney jargon", but in layman's terms. Your knowledge, demeanor, and overall consideration to our needs speaks volumes! I remember thinking after completing the process, how lucky we were in finding you. Had we known that this was going to be this easy, we would not have waited this long. Again, thank you for your professionalism and assistance.

Michael is a great and friendly attorney, very competent and kind who constantly answered all my questions and calls and helped me to understand each steps during the process. I highly recommend Michael Geller for all your legal needs.

Where do I start? I was injured at work and had to deal with everything that comes w/ it myself at first w/ no help from my employer. Good thing I found Anthony @ Cal Law Injury Group two months later. After receiving a consultation, he told me he believed I was in the right & he went to work right away. Anthony took care of everything needed to move forward with my case and always looped me in, as well as calling me whenever something came up. What I thought was going to be most stressful thing that ever happened to me turned into a walk in the park after hiring Anthony. He is great guy and an even better lawyer with a great team behind him. With the whole covid thing happening right now, we never met in person, but I feel as if I received the best possible service even then. Thank you Anthony!

I went through 3 WC lawyers, all turning me down saying I have no case. I fortunately found Cal Injury Law Group and I am so blessed to have found Anthony. He took the time to talk to me thoroughly. Had the other lawyers taken the time to talk in depth with me, instead of trying to rush me out, they would have found out that my case was worth taking. Anthony made me feel comfortable and relieved that I was being taken care of. He kept me updated through the whole process. He was up-front, straight forward, truthful, reliable, and trustworthy. If you've been turned down by lawyers that gave you 5 free minutes to explain your injury, it's not a waste of their time......it's a waste of YOUR time. Talk to Anthony....not only does he give you his undivided attention, he'll give you the time to explain your case. Thank you to Anthony and his staff at Cal Injury Law Group. He gets 5+ stars, 2 thumbs up, a fist pump, a high five, and a standing ovation. He's the real deal, and he's the BEST you'll ever find.

Amazing service! Anytime I need legal help I know I can call Anthony.

The worst attorney and service that I've ever had to endure. These guys love to stretch out a case. also real good at Shifting the blame to you for no communication
