David was a great help. I was facing subtenant issues and I wanted to double check if my contract with them covered the issue. He answered all the questions patiently and I was relieved after the consultation.I visited him a second time and he promptly remembered the issue I was facing without having to describe it to him again. Definitely recommend him.

Mr. Payab is a real caring person who actually cares about us. We asked him if we should sue in small claims or full on in court and he suggested we do small claims because our lawyer fees would be really low - lawyers aren't allowed to represent people in small claims. He said the lawyer fees for a full lawsuit would be way more than the compensation we'd get. If this was another lawyer he'd probably try to convince us of filing a lawsuit because he'd make so much money, but not Mr. Payab. He also has been incredibly generous by answering quick questions after our consultations with him, which he did not charge us for. His priority is really looking after us and wanting the best outcome for us. A lot of lawyers are just looking to make a pretty penny so it's hard to trust them these days. Mr. Payab is also very centered, calm, comforting, and incredibly knowledgeable. I would highly recommend him 100% and we'll use his services again if we ever need a lawyer. God bless Mr. Payab for his great heart.

We spoke to four different lawyers to get advice about a dispute. Mr. Payab had the qualities we were looking for: calm, rational, straightforward and clear communicator, and fair. It was "very" refreshing after the other three. I feel like we can rely on Mr. Payab to give us sound advice, keeping our best interest in mind. If we need legal advice in the future we will certainly call him.

Wow My family and I have been fortunate enough to receive Mr. Payab's incredible legal services regarding disputes with multiple landlords. He valued our time with professional care, critically and objectively evaluating the information we provided him without bias, and offered immediate solutions that improved the quality of our lives. We were able to understand our rights as tenants after our first consultation because of Mr. Payab's exceptional awareness in the field. During exigent circumstances, David Payab and his wonderful staff took care of our needs by meticulously handling loads of paperwork and paying attention to details that minimized future conflicts with the court and saved us from a great deal of trouble. If you need someone irreplaceable in multiple legal matters, especially landlord/tenant issues, please do not hesitate to see such a master in his craft.

David was very knowledgable about the questions I had about an employment-related case. His advice is helping me assess the strengths and weaknesses of my current position and will bring me significant financial benefit in applying it to my case. I am glad I got a chance to speak with David and I highly recommend him.

Really good service. Helpful along the whole process. Showed interested in my case.

I met him at USC for legal aid. He is really patient and helpful. He answered all my questions,and provide me referral. He is professional but also very approachable.

Mr. Payab has been assisting me with a landlord tenant dispute over a security deposit. With his help I have already recovered some of my deposit and it is likely that I will recover almost the full deposit after going to court. Mr Payab's warm and friendly demeanor helped me get motivated, and get prepared. He always takes time to answer my questions, even though I see him at a legal clinic where time is especially tight. Not having done this before, getting professional advice was useful. These meetings have also motivated me to read up on the law. Before, I did not realize that most legal statutes are available online. After reading the law I wrote up a short oral argument. Let's just say that I feel prepared for my small claims case.

I've met Mr. Payab 3 or 4 times at USC. He's given really good advice on all questions I've had, including topics of housing/leasing rules, website startups, making contracts and filing for trademarks. He explains stuff really well and is frank and unbiased in his advice. Would definitely recommend him.

David provided me with legal aid at USC. He was incredibly helpful and went beyond answering my questions. He was proactive in providing the best help possible and I was thoroughly please with his legal services.

David was extremely helpful when I met with him for consultation regarding a personal injury claim. Aside from being very knowledgeable on issues surrounding personal injury claims, I could tell that he truly cared about my case and paid attention to details. I would highly recommend David.

He was very knowledgeable and offered a lot of good advice. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to talk and get legal consultation from him. He listened to all the issues I faced and offered a lot of good suggestions on handling them. He was professional, attentive, and really knows the law inside and out.
