Mr.Ananian was highly recommended to me by a couple of friends who both have used him as their representation in the past. Unfortunately, this was not my first accident. And unfortunately, Mr.Ananian wasn't my representation for my first accident. As a lawyer he has a few extremely rare characteristics I wish not only more lawyers would possess, but also just more everyday people. When you meet Mr. Ananian for the first time you can tell he's genuinely a good person! For about 8 years my job included interviewing and screening strangers to conclude whether they were "good" people - Trust me, when I tell you he's genuinely good and kind, he really is. With him, I never had the feeling that I was a money-making-machine, but rather that I was a person who had the misfortune of going through a horrible experience due to the accident. He is the only lawyer that took his time with me. Not only did he answer all of my questions into detail, every single time, but he was just as attentive to my husband. So many times I called his office, and to my surprise when he was at the office, he would take my calls. The fact that my lawyer would take my calls immediately or get back to me in a timely manner was just shocking... in a very pleasant way. That was a very new experience for me and certainly unique to Ananian Law Group. I know I won't receive this kind of care at any other law firm - Sadly so. Mr.Ananian monitors your case very closely. No matter at which stage my case was, he was always on top of it. He kept me updated on the progress of my case - something I had to run after in the past with other lawyers. Mr. Ananian and Ananian Law Group is extremely well organized and punctual, unfortunately both features are not that common in law firms. Lawyers I have dealt with in the past, with the exception of Mr.Ananian, have usually this flair of slight arrogance. I'm not sure if that's strategy, but I just prefer down-to-earth people. With that said, I don't appreciate it when businesses book appointments only to have you arrive and make you wait half an hour in the lobby. Punctuality is my pet peeve and that is just a disrespectful and unprofessional way of doing business. Thankfully, my experiences with Ananian Law Group and Mr.Ananian himself was always with utmost respect to my time. As you can tell, I really had a great experience with Ananian Law Group and Mr.Ananian himself. I do recommend him highly! You owe it to yourself to book a consultation with him, just so you can affirm my review. I really hope I won't ever need a Personal Injury lawyer, but it's safe to say not only would I hire him again, but I'd recommend him to all my family and friends, as well.

When I needed legal help with a very stressful and emotional employment discrimination problem, at first I didn't know who to go to, who to trust, then other attorneys recommended Joseph Avrahamy, citing his excellence, integrity and compassion for his clients. They said he's not afraid of difficult cases. Mr. Avrahamy handled my case with remarkable skill, concern, great passion, dedication, and a true belief in me, his client. He understood and recognized how important this case was to me, as it was to him as well. I can't express how grateful I am and will always be for what he accomplished. As stressful as it was, "we" went all the way, through a jury trial, and won in our favor. That meant so much to me, to finally prove, among unbiased peers, that I had been wronged. I have no regrets, and am so happy that I choose Joseph Avrahamy to handle my lawsuit, as it was and still is a most important decision in my life, and impacted my present and future life.

I am not sure that 4000 characters for this response would be enough to explain my case and what Joseph (Yosi) Avrahamy did for me. It was a very long and complicated matter. Yosi represented me in an employment case against a major police department that I worked for. The allegations consisted of harassment, failure to promote, discrimination and retaliation. Fighting my particular law enforcement agency is one of the most difficult battles that one can take on. They don't play fair and will stonewall and lie at every turn to win. My case was no exception. However, Yosi was unphased by all this and stood by me from beginning to end. He believed I had a good case and never wavered in his support of me. The battle was long and I always felt that I was a part of the process. Yosi kept me informed every step of the way, which is huge when you are going through something as stressful as a lawsuit. Many lawyers do not do this. I know because I worked around a group of lawyers before I found myself in the precarious position that I was in. Yosi is the exception (in a good way) not the rule for most lawyers. And finally and most importantly, Yosi never made you feel that money was the most important thing to him in the case. By this I mean, that he actually made you feel that what happened to you mattered while also trying to win your case for you and achieve a satisfactory monetary outcome. In the end, my police department settled out of court with me. Something that they do not do unless they think that they could actually lose and lose big. They are very stubborn that way. It was Yosi's expertise and past victories that made them think twice about trying the case before a jury. I would highly recommend him. He is a great lawyer, but more importantly, he is a great person.

When one finds themselves in need of an attorney, what they really are in need of is good direction. Mr. Avrahamy helped me see that direction very clearly and built a methodical plan of action that never lost track of the bigger picture, which is not being taken advantage of. I am very comfortable giving Joseph Avrahamy my highest recommendation, without reservation, to handle your legal needs.

I was dealing with what seemed to be a hopeless situation and was misguided, frustrated and at the end of my rope. Attorney Ayvazi was very diligent and brilliant in his approach. He told me the truth about exactly where I stood and what direction I needed to take to resolve my issue. For that, I am forever grateful. He is the best and the most knowledgeable attorney that you could find. I highly recommend him to all my friends and family with confidence.

Mr. Ayvazi represented me in a very involved construction litigation matter. We went to arbitration on one part of the case and court trial on another part. He was knowledgeable and always prepared. I recommend him very highly. Subsequent to that litigation, we formed a friendship and later a partnership. Rafik and I were partners for almost 11 years and I have been a witness to his practice, his conduct with our clients and the resuls he has been able to garner for his clients. On a personal level he has been a great friend and on a professional level he has been a great attorney and a successful litigator.

Unlike most attorneys who are greedy and rush you during consultations, Katherine listened to me and answered all my questions (and trust me I had plenty). Some attorneys I have spoken to were a big negative and pessimist, while Katherine was very optimistic and actually offered me solutions and great advice for my very specific case. She managed to make me feel hopeful, while still being realistic and honest. She gave me concrete answers and plans of what I can do! Very thankful for her time and will definitely be contacting her soon.

I normally do not write reviews, but 'd like to commend and express my deepest gratitude to Makoto Shuttleworth for his excellent work in representing us during our C13 petition. Mako was our guiding light during our darkest days. With our home under threat of foreclosure, my wife and I were under a lot of stress and needed a very knowledgeable and caring person like Mako on our side. Mako handled our case in a highly professional and compassionate manner. He was very enthusiastic, friendly and always took the time to explain everything we needed to know. Mako was always patient, explaining in clear layman's terms all the nuances and legalities of our case. His detail-oriented approach was critical in getting our petition approved and granted. Mako's professionalism, compassion, work ethics and legal knowledge are outstanding. He is definitely an asset to anyone needing legal guidance - and one who deserves my highest praise and commendation.

Makoto "Mako" is very knowledgeable when it comes to tax law. He sets the expectations and does not sugarcoat anything. If you email him, he answers. If you call him, his office will answer. He has been very good to me in helping in my bankruptcy. He is one of the only lawyers who will tell you the truth about what type of bankruptcy to file. I thought at first I made too much to qualify for chapter 7. Mako reviewed my records and informed me that I DID qualify for chapter7. He and his law firm are very thorough and prepare you for anything that could come up in the meeting of the creditors. I highly recommend him. Hopefully this is the last time I have to use Mako's services.

I recorded the entire encounter with the police and was able to provide Sandy with the video along with other notes. Once again, she was able to get the charge dismissed. She spoke with the police officer before the case was brought to trial and convinced the officer to drop the charge. Sandy is very knowledgeable and an expert criminal attorney.

I wanted to take the time to say that I highly recommend Sandy Rabadi if you're in need of an attorney. I had been charged with a DUI back in February in Burbank and Sandy was successful in not only working the plea down to a wet reckless, but also in getting the fines and accompanying alcohol classes waived as well. I found Sandy to be extremely personable and professional throughout the entire process. I also appreciated her straightforwardness as she provided me with realistic expectations based on the facts of my case. As one would expect, the past few months stemming from my DUI situation had been stressful and, at times, trying. However, Sandy Rabadi was a definite bright spot. I highly recommend her.

It is a true pleasure for me to write this recommendation for Susan J. Cooley. My brother and I came to Susan with several complex trust and probate concerns further complicated by family discord. Susan not only brought her over thirty years of experience as an attorney, but also the perfect temperament: a very effective combination of toughness and compassion. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

He is honestly an amazing attorney who wants what's best for his clients and won't stop until he gets it. Nothing was done without my approval and I knew everything that was going on.

I have referred many clients to him and have no hesitation in doing so at any time. I even suggested my own daughter call him. What impresses me most about Harmon is his expertise in many areas. I was comfortable only in real estate transactional work. Harmon is equally comfortable there, as well as real estate (and other) litigation. It was always a pleasure to sit with Harmon and discuss legal theories and strategies.

When I think of the LA Trial Team, "skilled" and "compassionate" are the first words that come to mind. Although it took almost two years to resolve my case, and it’s been nearly six months since it closed, the team's support was unwavering throughout. They were always responsive, professional, and offered clear, concise guidance at every step. What stood out most was their preparation for the challenges I would face after the case concluded—mentally and practically. I am grateful not only for the favorable outcome but also for their foresight in preparing me for the difficulties of daily life post-therapy. The best part of this experience? My family has grown, and I've made a new friend.

From the very beginning until the very end of this process, the entire team has been professional, courteous, and sympathetic, not to mention efficient. At first I was curious and nervous about the legal process for a personal injury. Bart Seemen was my initial contact and he answered every question and was inquisitive about the incident. He laid out the process, plan, and spelled out what steps and documents I needed to procure. He made it very easy for me to understand what I needed to do in order for them to do their job effectively and efficiently. It showed a level of professionalism that demonstrated and convinced me that I had a professional team on my side. AD Williams was the lawyer that helped me with the following steps. He was very clear about what the defendants could or would do and he gave me a sense of comfort and ease during the entire process. He was honest about what was to happen next and sure enough everything he said would happen happened. Overall the entire firm is exceptional. The level of care from beginning to end is next level. Thank you all for your help.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
    Establish expectations for updates, preferred communication methods, and response times.
  7. What is the likely timeline for resolving my case?
    Get an estimate of how long the process may take from start to finish.
  8. Do you have references from past clients?
    Testimonials or references can provide insight into the lawyer's professionalism and effectiveness.
  9. What are the strengths and weaknesses of my case?
    Understanding potential challenges helps you prepare and sets realistic expectations.
  10. Are there alternative ways to solve my legal problem?
    Discuss options like mediation, arbitration, or settlement to resolve the issue efficiently.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
  2. Experience and Specialization:
    Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
  3. Disciplinary Record:
    Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
  4. Client Reviews and Testimonials:
    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
  5. Professional Memberships:
    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
  2. Written Summary:
    Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
  3. List of Questions:
    Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
  4. Financial Information:
    If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
  5. Contact Information:
    Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
  6. Personal Identification:
    Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
  7. Pen and Notebook:
    Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
  8. Budget Constraints:
    Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

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.
    • Contingency Fee:
      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.
