When you have to explain to an attorney that two party consent doesn’t apply to public places because there’s no reasonable expectation of privacy and that the First Amendment, freedom of press, does apply—you suspect you aren’t dealing with the sharpest crayon in the box. But when the lawyer proceeds to be condescending about it, when you’re the one who has a chamber loaded with one star reviews, you realize that the dullest tool in the shed attempted to sharpen the dullest crayon in the box that’s been dressed by its mommy and is rolling around under the seats of the short bus. Lawyers should realize if they pick up the phone to consult that they’re running a business.

Donn Taketa successfully represented us in a fire case against Southern California Edison and Time Warner Cable. The case was tried before a jury for 8 weeks in Ventura County, California. On July 26, 2012, we obtained a judgment in excess of $2 million because of the tenacity of Donn Taketa and his firm's extensive knowledge of the utility industry. Mr. Taketa’s honesty and integrity were a beacon of light in this highly contested case. Each of the attorneys on the Sullivan Taketa team has impressive skills, talents and credentials. We prevailed in every aspect of our case because of Mr. Taketa's commitment to us and to our case. Not only did he fight for our rights, but his genuine concern for public safety motivated him to be deeply committed to seeking justice. I highly recommend Mr. Taketa.
