I have had the pleasure of working aside and with Don Krupens. He has a work ethic that exceeds anyone else I have ever worked with. He has a personal integrity to do his best in all aspects of his career and it shows in his completion of tasks. Not only have I seen Don Krupens complete the tasks set before him, I have seen him complete them them beyond the expectation. I highly recommend Don Krupens.

I consulted with Don when my landlord didn't refund my security deposit on time. I was prepared to go to court. Don helped put together a letter where we outlined the law about security deposits as well as some information that showed the condo was in great condition when we moved out. I can't say for sure, but within a few days of receiving the letter we received our security deposit.

Ms. Choudhury provided excellent legal work for the estate of my children's father. She asked pertinent questions and kept our family in the loop during all of the proceeding and filing processes. She was very personable and never made us feel like we were asking dumb questions. I would recommend her for any estate planning work!

I hired Devika Choudry after my mom passed away when I wasplaced in charge of her estate. There were several issues I needed help navigating, and Devika was not only knowledgeable and skilled at handling my probate case, but also kind and understanding. Devika ensured that all debts that were able to be were written off, and that the investment company released my mother's funds to her estate when they were resistant to doing so. I doont believe I would have been successful in handling this case closing the probate without her.

Mr. Weber is a great attorney, Always available to answer any of my million questions I would have. He was always easy to talk to and explain my situation. I fully trusted Mr. Weber and in this day and time when it comes to Lawyers thats something you don't hear very often. But I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an attorney dealing with Employment Law or Bankruptcy. The communication was always open and he was great to explain things that I didn't understand when dealing with the laws. I know I keep his card on file in case I might ever need a good attorney.

We were in a position where we did not know what to do. My son had been arrested and faced a lengthy prison sentence and charges. We decided we needed a lawyer, that would be where we meet Andrew . We called him in a desperate situation. We did not know if we would ever see our son again , we did not know what the future held for us or my our son. Andrew walked us through the hardest time in our lives. When we could not carry the burden he carried it for us. He was honest through out the entire process. He gave us all the perspectives of how the court hearings would play out. He was at every hearing and he took time to get to know my son and he represented him as an individual. He took any bias thoughts of what had happened and focused on who he is as a person. He also kept us informed and updated on all the information good and bad. Without Andrew we would not be where we are today. He was able to give my son a second chance at life. We know that God had his hand in everything and he used Andrew to carry out the work. Thank Andrew no words could express how grateful we are for the work you did .

I came to work with Attorney Eric Schweitzer through a referral from another firm in Fresno. The nature of my case, in other Attorney's opinions was not only unwinnable, but many barely looked at the documents or assumed there was a particular statute (1203.4 - which does not restore firearms possession) in play and therefore declined to even look into the matter for me stating my firearm's rights would only be reinstated with a pardon. Obviously, I disagreed. Please note, I have been fighting this issue with the CADOJ and the FBI since 2019 when I was originally denied a firearm purchase. The original dismissal dates back to 1997. When I contacted Eric, he requested copies of all of my documents, scheduled a zoom call (I live in MI) to review everything and talk with me. On our call, which by the way, he took time to do on a Saturday because of my work schedule and three-hour time difference; something I appreciated immensely. Within five minutes of reviewing my documents, he realized (with a rather excited exclamation) this was a PC1385 dismissal. Eric had stated that this would be an easy fix (and the fee to handle this was more than reasonable. I was expecting it to be more than what was stated. BONUS). Eric stated that all that was needed was to file a motion to correct the original dismissal (the original clerk didn't mark the box "dismissed in the furtherance of justice") in 1997 to reflect it was dismissed pursuant to PC1385 (which restores all firearms rights). While my presence in CA was not needed, I chose to go and be present for the hearing. On the court date, Eric and I met at the courthouse, chatted about the case and what to expect. Eric's confidence, knowledge of the law, and explanation of his relationship with the court presiding Judge was very reassuring, especially with the angst I was experiencing at the time. Our case was called, a couple of minutes of conversation with the Judge to make sure we were all on the same page, then my motion was granted. Furthermore, due to the nature of the motion written by Eric, the Judge not only stated that all of my civil rights were fully restored, he went one step further and said this includes the right to own and possess firearms, effective **-**-1997, the date of the original dismissal. A thousand pound weight instantly fell off. Moreover, a sense of elation and respect for the Judge was experienced when he made it clear all civil rights were restored. This was again due because of the motion that was drafted by Eric. I was highly impressed with how thorough and concise the motion was when I received a copy. Eric is an Attorney who epitomizes walking softly and carrying a big stick. He knows what he is doing and is obviously very good at what he does. Eric is forthright, plays no games, nor engages in any deception. He's matter of fact, confident, as noted, and, very thorough, also as noted. I cannot begin to close without mentioning Eric's staff, Angel and Laticia. What incredible women they are. They are the heroes in the background that make everything run like a well-oiled machine. Angel and Laticia were not only very helpful with any questions I had, they were also very understanding of the angst and anxiety I was experiencing throughout this process. Their responses to emails and or returning of phone calls was much faster and much more thorough than expected. Thank you, ladies. So, in closing, whatever legal issue you may be experiencing, especially civil rights restoration, Eric and his team will take exceptional care of you. Eric, Angel and Laticia, Thank you!

When I first started this difficult journey of going through my child custody battle... I was lost and scared. It was so hard to choose the right Law Firm for my case which also included Domestic Abuse. But after reading the reviews through the Law firm of Rebecca Medina, I saw nothing but love and positivity. Immediately, I wanted to call and hear from them. Long story short, I was received with love and patience from all three. Rebecca said to me, "Just trust me through it all..." and that's exactly what I did. In the end, we won our case, and although my children and my path are still a little rocky... I know that I can call my people back with all their full support and help. Rebecca was so fierce in court and amazing through the whole process. Manny was always so sweet, and always there whenever I needed to bug him for anything. So skilled with his work as well! Definitely made me want to even befriend them on Facebook after such a smooth and loving ride. Lol :) Also, Cat was such a sweetheart whenever I got the chance to speak to her. I definitely chose the winning team, and recommend for all to choose them as well. If you're looking for a brave, fierce, and intelligent team, they are the Firm for you! :)

Since feb 2018 she will find a way to charge the hell out of you with no results what so ever in federal court. Her pleading are the worse i have seen in a long time. Absolutely horriable i have nothing but facts on top of facts with affidavits to prove much fraud. She wont get anything in by a dead line, she wont represent you she probably make a deal with the defendents and leavr her client out to dry. She even try to take crrdit for galskis case but whay she did was get the whole case dismissed. The only rrason why galski had a chance is went to appeal with different attorney. I asked her many times during our time since febuary i stated to her you do not rrpresent me very well at all. You do not have any fight for your client. She was in it to take as much from me get the case dismissed because she will not do pleadings or deadlines well at all. After sometime she will ask do you know anyone that go go to sale date and short the pre tender lender, all this she states after you give her thousand and thousands of dollars. She is in it for the money not for the client for wrongful forclosure, forclosure defense. If you are looking for an attorney for foclosure defense to take your money and have your case dismissed hire catarina office. Absolutely disgusting job , no fight , and will ask you to take a modification agreement 1.5 times more than your original payment from your pre tender lender debt collector servicer. Im here to fight so that is what we will do until these corrupt people banks, servicer, judges, and attorneys are held accountble period. Ron

I was in need of legal services and was referred to Catarina Benitez. I found her to be friendly, knowledgeable and "real". She was very accessible and professional and she conveyed the law process in an easily understandable manner. Through her efforts I was able to come to a favorable closure to my situation. Should I need legal representation in the future I will definitely be calling her again.

They are good people but I feel they need more experience. Next time I would rather use someone with a little more experience and someone with great online reviews. Stay away from Craigslist. My case was up and down and around. I was lost most of the time with late emails and communication was short and at the end still don't know what's going on. It was hard because the lawyer and staff was unorganized and didn't know about my case. They gave me high hopes only to come crashing down. Everything was a I didn't know that or things between them were not communicated. They would say one thing and then change their minds on the case, how we should have approached the case and how to proceed with it. The whole time with my case was very confusing. They said my case will go like this and like that but it was just all talk and went sour pretty fast. When the lawyers fought hard mines backed down. He made me feel like everything was my fault even though they made me feel like I did nothing wrong and that I do have a case here. They were not on the same page most of the time. Overall they are nice and good people but to win cases I think you need the best and most experience out there. They are not fighters they are more worried about the money they lost. These were the last words I wanted to hear. "I don't want to fight no more. I lost a lot of money already." I'm thinking to myself "then why start the lawsuit? Why go through all this?" I was frustrated not satisfied but it is what it is. Get someone with experience and make sure they have great online reviews. Talk to people who have used them before and research them. If they're advertising on Craigslist just skip it with a passion. Find the reviewed and trusted places to fight for you that will go all the way for you without a doubt.

Mike helped me out several years ago with an incident that just kept going wrong for me. I did not have to appear in court , and he got everything dropped criminally against me. He didn’t waste time , didn’t run up a big bill , he has a clear idea of how it was going to go and what it would cost and he was spit on , hope I don’t need him again , but if anything goes sideways in my life he’s my first call.

This guy is trash. Speaks of doing very nice gestures for you and as soon as he tells you all you want to hear to get you to sign a plea deal that the Public Defender could’ve gotten you, he is no longer your lawyer. And not before taking your money too. Save your money and go with someone else or a public defender. Paid a lot of money for nothing. Lesson learned. Minorities stay away from this guy. Won’t even send me back my evidence.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

  • Fee Structures:
    • Hourly Rate:
      Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
    • Flat Fee:
      For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
    • Retainer Fee:
      An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.

      Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
    • Monthly Retainer:
      For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
  • Factors Affecting Cost:
    • Complexity of the Case:
      More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
    • Lawyer's Experience:
      Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
    • Geographic Location:
      Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
    • Additional Expenses:
      Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
  • Estimating Total Costs:
    Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
    Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
  • Negotiating Fees:
    Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
  • Pro Bono Services:
    For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
