Nathan assisted me with a legal matter that I anticipated would only last 30 days. Instead, it lasted 9 months and he was instrumental in pursuing a response and outcome that would be most beneficial to my business. He is professional, thorough, responsive, and efficient. I am grateful for the outcome and will be sure to refer his services to other business owners. Thank you!

I am a small business owner who was searching for legal representation with a matter with the State of California. Nathan was responsive, thorough, professional, and most off all, committed to ensuring I received the best outcome for my business. We both expected this matter to last 30 days at the most, but it ended up taking 9 months to receive an outcome. Nathan provided me clear and informed choices that I could pursue and, in the end, an outcome that kept me in business. I am grateful and very happy with Nathan's services. Thank you!

Going through a step-parent adoption is always a hard process and we didn’t know what to expect in general or how to begin with the process. When we talked to Lilian she explained everything in detail and every part of the process she made it so simple and smooth for us. She’s sharp, empathetic, and her expertise and kindness made my husband and me feel at ease in every step of the process. We’re so thankful for her support.

My experience with Family Law was spectacular and really reassuring. I reached out so they could take on my child custody case, I didn’t know how to proceed or what to do but all of the team made me feel confident with their expertise, empathy and approach. I’d highly recommend her to anyone going through a family issue similar to this.

I still remember the day I called the main line, 37 weeks pregnant, in complete disarray being threatened, when Alisha picked up the phone. I knew from that moment this was a firm I wanted and needed. I was referred by a friend to request for Samantha McBride specifically, and that her reputation inSan Bernardino County is unmatched. That call was almost 2 years ago. Today I have peace because of this firm. Thank you to the entire team, and most importantly, Sam. Thankful you’re a phone call away if I ever need you again.

Attorney Samantha McBride was attentive and thorough during the entirety of my case. She is not only exceedingly knowledgeable about family law, but she took an active interest in me as a client and a person, and supported me each step of the way. I am grateful for her help and service, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

Joe Hudack is simply amazing. I worked with him to set up my family trust and it was painless and effortless.
Then tragedy struck and I needed his help with a probate for my mother's estate. Joe was nothing but professional and helped me navigate the probate courts in the least painful way.
I can't say enough about how professional and responsive Joe is. If/when you need him, he's there for you.

I was referred to Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson by a friend who said they were the very best. I have to say he was absolutely right! Since the moment I walked in to the firm I felt as if a huge wheight lifted off my shoulders. That day I met with Dayn, he was firm and very knowledgable. He laid out his plan and I was very impressed. After being harassed and taken advantage of by my estranged husband and his attorney I finally didn't feel afraid. Everyone at Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson is very knowledgable, organized, and compassionate. They know exactly what to do and will defend you with all they've got!! They are currently working on my domestic violence/divorce/child custody case and I am confident to say that they will GET IT DONE! The entire staff at Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson is extraordinary, they make you feel at ease & really know how to take care of their clients. Tiffany Zurita is the paralegal assigned to assist with my case. She has been very helpful & professional. She answer all my questions/emails within a matter of minutes and really gives me peace of mind. I highly recommend Holstrom, Sissung Mark & Anderson.

Nov 2023, I chose to take leave after a long military deployment. Unfortunately, my leave was disrupted by a driver who chose to drink, drive and rear ended my family and I. As I was sitting in the hospital waiting room waiting for my mother and daughter to be seen I knew we needed someone to represent us. I deep dive into the internet reading reviews on several local attorneys.
I soon found Marc. All the reviews seemed genuine. I sent him and several others that passed my screening. First thing the following morning I had a message from his office offering an appointment as soon as the same day. He showed patience, compassion and understanding. There was no doubt in my mind that he was my guy.
Soon after I went on deployment and he worked with me even through the difficulties of having to find me medical attention out of state and sometimes having no comms with me.
At the time of settling with the insurance company, I have no doubt that he was aggressively fighting for us.
I don’t think that we would have had the outcome we had had it been another attorney.
If you need an attorney who cares and is willing to go above and beyond to look out for your best interest don’t waste your time with anyone else. Marc is your guy!

Be careful with these sharks. Have your guard up in the end they’re here to make money and that’s their number one priority.
Long story short, I went in with my case. Other party was using non existent arrears to have me bend at their will. I went to them for help and they strung me along making me think I had a chance.
First court date comes up and judge calls off. Over $1500 for that day and all I got was a continuance.
They charge me for 3 missed phone calls that totaled up to just under $300
My attorney called me the the wrong name twice.
Other party reaches out for an agreement proposal and instead of attempting to resolve they state “attorney is ready to go” and we proceed to court. $2800 later and all they did was ask for continuance.
$16,000 later and they tell me to just agree to the terms other party has presented me. The exact same position I was in before I hired Reel father rights. Thousands in the hole and no custody of my child. Beware of them.

I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exemplary legal representation provided by Attorney Ron Funk and his dedicated team. From the very beginning, their commitment to communication and excellence set them apart, earning my complete trust and satisfaction.
Attorney Funk demonstrated an unmatched level of expertise and professionalism throughout the entirety of my case. His ability to communicate complex legal matters in a clear and understandable manner was truly impressive. I always felt well-informed and confident in the strategy being pursued.
What truly sets Attorney Funk and his team apart is their unwavering dedication to their clients. They went above and beyond, investing time and effort to thoroughly understand the nuances of my case. Their commitment to my best interests was evident as they tirelessly worked to ensure that every detail was meticulously addressed.
The communication from the entire team was exceptional. I was kept informed at every stage of the legal process, and any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and with the utmost care. This level of transparency and responsiveness greatly alleviated the stress that often accompanies legal matters.
Most impressively, Attorney Funk and his team successfully navigated my case, ultimately resulting in its dismissal. Their commitment to achieving the best possible outcome was evident at every turn, and I am incredibly grateful for their hard work and dedication.
I wholeheartedly recommend Attorney Funk and his team to anyone seeking legal representation. Their commitment to excellence, effective communication, and willingness to go the extra mile make them unparalleled in their field. Thank you, Attorney Funk and team, for your outstanding service!

Natalie was my 3rd family law attorney when she inherited my very sensitive and complicated family law case that had been ongoing for 2 years. She required little time to catch up and even less time to identify a path forward that set my mind at ease. With empathy for our journey up to that point, she made her first appearance and demonstrated that she would be a strong advocate for our minor child. Natalie has always been incredibly professional, as well as friendly and compassionate in every interaction. She consistently checked in and offered her experienced advice. After 1 and a half years of guiding our case, Natalie was able to get our family to a point of self-management, and our case moved out of the courts. I am deeply grateful for Natalie's support and leadership during one of the most difficult periods of our lives. Her impact cannot be measured.

Ms. Hollis and her team make you feel like you and your case are a priority. She is timely and well spoken. Common sense and dependability are what come to mind when I think of Natalie. There are many lawyers out there but a few will actually remember and invest time in your case. I’ve even had a lawyer forget my name while representing me in court and that same lawyer cost me more money in child support from a clerical error his staff made. I know that Natalie is there to step up for me and be an ally when the going gets tough. Her staff is right by her side to back her up. As a RN I advocate for my patients all the time. It’s nice to know that I have Natalie invested in advocating for my child. Family law is not a cakewalk, lots of emotions and unnecessary arguments are battled. Natalie can negotiate this arena with intelligence and grace. You will not be disappointed with her counsel.

Called to schedule a consultation for my mother to process a divorce. With my mother being Spanish speaking, I asked if I could help with translating. They said no and because no one in the firm speaks Spanish. Which is fine they’re not required to. So they referred me to another law firm that speaks Spanish. I have no issues with speaking to our immigration lawyer as a translator so not sure how this is different or they just don’t serve the Latino community. Either way not surprising based off other reviews here so we probably are better off.

From the day that I walked into meet with Jeff and Dayn it has been a pleasurable experience. I was forced to hire an attorney when my ex filed a motion for full custody of our daughter even though I had been the custodial parent since birth . After making a few calls to law offices I made an appointment to meet with Dayn Holstrom.. I have worked with Dayn, Jeff and Mariana throughout my case and I have never been disappointed. I was very comfortable with each of them. I never felt nervous at any time throughout my case. Before I hired them, I was representing myself and it has been very scary. They did a great job in representing me and won my custody case for me. I have an upcoming support hearing and I am comforted by the fact that I know I have great representation. Dayn agreed to work with me financially. Had he not done this I would have been fighting this battle alone. Dayn’s firm is the first and only attorney I have used. I will never use another firm in the future either. Comfort is very important to me and every person in that office makes me feel comfortable. This is a great feeling.

I strongly recommended this Attorney office for your Workers Comp need. I am very satisfied with what my Attorney Brian Freeman and his assistants got for me in my WC case. You can trust him 100%.
He is not only very friendly and answering any questions I had, but also very experienced, professional, considerate and thoughtful in many details in your favor when he handled my WC case. Most of us, ordinary people don't have much experienced how a WC case develops. Particularly, my work injury was not a broken arm or leg, but I had a injury in my heart by the stress of my overloaded work. I realized later that I need to file a WC claim after couple of ER visits because of my damaged heart, but I had no idea how to proceed. I felt very lucky to find and have Attorney Brian filed my WC claim and get his guidance in every step during my WC claim.

After hiring Gary, I was pleased with how my case was resolved. I was consultated on the situation, offered a flat fee and the law office performed as expected. I had to be patient since the other party was doing everything they could to avoid and then delay as much as possible. I guess with litigation, this is par for the course.

A friend recommended Qais & after one consultation I felt that my case was in the right hands. Qais was extremely honest and didn't try to sell me on retaining his services. He is very knowledgeable, spoke facts and to what he could achieve realistically. He handled all of my proceedings and went out of his way to walk me through the processes, answered my endless questions and put my mind at ease. In the end everything worked out better than I could have hoped for! If you're looking for a legit, honest and affordable lawyer who gets the job done I would highly recommend Qais!

she was my former attorney, and I fired her after acted against my will three time on the same issue. I have serious reservations about her competence and ethical conduct:
1. She ignored and acted against my will not once, not twice, but three times on the same issue. I didn’t feel like I was respected at all. She failed to communicate her strategy and get my consent, which I think is to the purpose of maximizing her billing hours.
2. Her oversight delayed my case for a month. I told her the other party’s translation was not done by a court-certified translator twice, one time via phone, one time via email. she just ignored it. When the judge asked her if she knew that, she said she didn’t. I don’t know if she perjured herself or she didn’t remember. The result is that I had to wait a month for the other party to get the translation done by court-certified translator.
3. I believe Ms. Eyre knew the court wouldn't grant spousal support and attorney's fee while the jurisdiction hasn't been determined, the best option for me was to continue the hearing until the jurisdiction is determined. But instead she deliberately found a case law that’s obviously irrelevant to jurisdiction and pretended that I had a chance so that she could argue in court to maximize her billing hours. In re Marriage of Knox, 83 Cal.App.5th 15 (2022), the case law she used, has no bearing on jurisdiction. I think this action resulted in a Breach of Duty. If she argues that that’s not her intention, then she is incompetent to see that the case law had no bearing on jurisdiction. I consulted multiple lawyers, they all told me every lawyer knows the court wouldn't grant any financial relief while the jurisdiction hasn't been determined, this is taught in the first year of law school I felt deeply wronged upon learning this. I knew lawyers could be greedy, but I thought she'd go easy on me because I told her I couldn’t get a job due to my immigrant status and had taken a loan to fund the lawsuit.
I strongly advise against considering her for your legal needs.

Joseph Hudack represented us against our HOA Board & their Attorney. We are the owners of a Condo in a Huge Condominium Complex in San Diego, CA. He wiped the floor with our HOA's Attorney & left her utterly speechless on every issue. Joseph is so well versed on ALL CURRENT CALIFORNIA HOA Regulations, & he proved they were in violation of our rights & they were forced to drop all allocations against us. WE WON!!!

I highly recommend Bonnie Hiler and will never be able to convey just how grateful I am to have found her.

After sitting five minutes with Vonya I new my case and life was about to change for the good. The main thing she did was listen and supported me and my family from the start. She was able to explain everything in detail which removed my anxiety and fear. She then took over and started fighting for me. Her sensitivity, patience’s, and professionalism is bar none. I was looking at ten years, with four felonie strikes. I ended up going to trial. My case ended with me receiving 58 days work released, and informal probation.

It was my pleasure meeting with Ms Vonya Quarles, I did with lots of concerns and needed her expertise to help me weigh my options, within just a few hours she had them written up and explained each one in a language I could understand, She showed me just how together we would fight back and in this case even win.. The out of pocket cost was less then other considered Attorney's, I feel like I won in more ways then one.. and will continue to refer my family and friends to this wonderful Criminal & Family Law Attorney.

I needed legal advice on how to negotiate a landlord and tenant dispute and a friend recommended Mr. Iles. I had heard that most attorneys charged a consultation fee, which made me hesitant in seeking advise. To my surprise, Mr. Iles not only helped me with my lease issue, but did so without charging me a consultation fee. Rare in this day and age, yet greatly appreciated. When I asked him why, his response was, "one kind act, begets another" and that I had helped him fulfil his pro bono requirement, whatever that meant.
If I ever have another legal issue to deal with, I will undoubtely give Mr. Iles a call.

I have personally known Ivan since Jr. High School. I have consulted with him off and on over the years regarding personal & business legal matters and he's always given me sound advice and made recommendations to me to follow through on legal matters, including lawsuits. While I have always taken matters in to my own hands, having a very knowledgeable attorney as a friend is always calming knowing I have someone on my side. Should I ever have a legal matter that he will be able to handle and I need help, Ivan would be the only person I'd hire.... not because he is a friend, but someone I would trust. I have referred friends to him and, if he wasn't able to help, was always able to refer them to someone who could help them.

Attorney Iles really saved the day! Not only was my car illegally towed by the city, the tow company involved caused damage to the gas tank during the tow and of course refused to take responsibility. Attorney Iles was not afraid to take on the city or the tow company. He refused to be intimidated. He fearlessly and valiantly fought for me and WON!!! He made both the city and the tow company pay! This is the guy!!!

Having John Tiedt & Paul Molinaro as my lawyers was a very positive experience due to the fact I did not have to worry about anything in the past 2 years. John and Paul are extremely knowledgeable (Paul being a past doctor helped immensely with my case). Their timely and empathetic communication skills were thorough and reliable. I had total confidence in their abilities and can't recommend them enough.

John represented me in a medical malpractice case. John had a background defending medical malpractice cases, so he brought a unique perspective to the table. From day one, he was very clear about how the process would work and surprisingly accurate about timelines and other estimates. We eventually reached a fair settlement that I was pleased with. John kept in constant contact and always made clear what was needed and when it was needed. The process is never fast and easy, but John made it as painless as possible.

I went in for a consultation on a potential legal matter and was on time pressure so I wanted to set up a meeting the same day I found him on AVVO, he called me back and set it up and I was very pleased he got back to me right away. When I met up with him he was very honest with his legal advise and very professional and friendly. I was very pleased with the overall experience, and would go back to him again if need be.

Mr Rupal kept me believing in his goal, and that was to win my case. I was tired of fighting and he kept powering me not to give up. He gave it all, told me "we are going to win, just believe, and trust me". I did, and he won my appeal. Thanks you Mr Rupal. I can go back to work, and do what I like the most.

Erik assisted one of my parents in a case that we didn’t think had the capability of ending in a positive outcome. However, through his tenacity and drive to help his clients, he ended up obtaining a result that was better than we could have imagined. He’s a very excellent and caring Attorney. I couldn’t imagine hiring anyone else. Thank you again, Erik!
