I am most fortunate to find a wonderful, compassionate and experienced attorney as Shari Anhalt !
Although my case should have been simple, the other parties attorney deployed several unorthodox methods.These included submitting complex case law that did not apply, property liens, a subpoena, continuances, and requesting a new judge.
Shari stood steadfast during these events, researched case law, advised me and fired back with legitimate issues during these frustrating times.
After eight months, I get a call from the ex. She said “You have a very good attorney”. I said “I know”. At that point, she agreed to withdrawal all claims and pay my fees.
Thanks to Shari, Minh and Samar, I can now move on with life in retirement. Shari conducts business very thoroughly, and with ease and efficiency. I am more than pleased with the results she achieved! My highest recommendation!

My experience with Shari and the entire team was GREAT! My dad only speaks Spanish and we were desperate for a lawyer. The first meting we had with her my dad knew she was the one. She explained everything to me and I translated. My dad always had questions that Shari always had an answer to. The language barrier was never a problem because she knew what my dad wanted. At the end of every court date my dad would say she did great she was fierce! She knows exactly what she's doing. Shari and Minh my father and I will forever be grateful what you did for us. Thank you so much!
Highly RECOMMEND.

Shari produced incredible results in a highly contested divorce where custody, support and the division of property/assets were at issue.
Her entire team was very well prepared and knowledgeable on the facts of the case, providing a sense of peace during an extremely stressful situation.
Shari is a master strategist which helped us stay a step ahead throughout. She is a true professional in the courtroom, eloquent and fierce: The judges know and respect her, and I cannot overstate the value in that.
I give Shari, Minh, Samar and the team my highest recommendation for their legal abilities and the people they are.

Many thanks to Shannon Wiezorek of Wiezoreck & Geye in Long.Beach, CA. The legal services provided by this firm were invaluable to me and my family who needed to work through the probate of an estate earlier this year. Shannon and her team did an excellent job, making the probate process seamless on our end, offering competent, efficient, friendly service as we worked through the necessary steps to close out the estate. I thought it would take years, but with Wiezorek & Geye, we completed the entire process in months, without stress or anxiety I highly recommend the Wiezorek & Geye firm to anyone in need of legal services.

I worked with Agata from 2019 to 2021 as she helped with my family law case.
She is a good person who means well. When we spoke on the phone, she always took the necessary time to explain her professional opinion and the possible view from the court's perspective. She exemplified caring about my situation and I believe that Agata provided me with her best advice for the situation. Where she really shines is litigation. On the occasions we went to court, she definitely threw the gloves on and fought for the case.
Unfortunately, no attorney is perfect. There were some shortfalls within my experience:
1. Administrative - To my knowledge, there was no paralegal employed in the office. There are a lot of moving parts to each case and I felt Agata was a little over her head. The time it took to get a problem resolved took longer than expected due to this. There was an instance where Agata followed up with the opposing party, only for everyone to realize she had not even sent the e-mail for the opposing party to actually respond to.
2. Communication - For the most part, Agata replied within 24 hours when I would leave a voicemail. However, there were numerous occasions where I did not hear back for days. While completely understandable that personal issues may arise, the lack of communication was noted as a considerable weakness, especially when clients and opposing parties are waiting on hearing back from your lawyer to move forward. I wasn't notified all the time if she received my emails. If she replied that she would do something by a certain date, a lot of the time the deadline was not met. I had to follow up with Agata on multiple occasions to get an update on my case, so it was difficult to know if anything had been done. It came to a point where I had to state that I was not paying for follow up emails. COVID aside, my case dragged on partly due to this factor.
3. Limited Proactiveness - While Agata was proactive in fighting for me during litigation, she was not as strong in being proactive with solutions outside the courtroom. As with any family law case, it's a stressful and arduous experience for everyone. A good lawyer makes you feel like someone has your back through this tough time. Unfortunately, this was not the case in my opinion and how I felt overall.
Agata is a kind person who means well. If you're looking for someone with a strong litigation background and think you may go to court, Agata may be a good fit. If you have expectations for strong communication and exceptional administrative qualities, keep interviewing lawyers.

I called Briana Kim in a time of need and at a very difficult time in my life and I’m so glad that I did. She was available to me every time I needed her and she got me the best possible outcome on my case. I had the pleasure of also working with Florence and Raleigh from her office and they were all so great.

My TRO case was a little more complex because of some family dynamics that were involved.
Plus, I had a lot at stake.
Thankfully my attorney was able sort through the bs and present a clear case to the judge!
My attorney Jeff is knowledgeable, friendly, passionate, and most importantly,
he listened to me and looked out for my best interest!
The receptionist was also friendly and attentive.
If you need help from an attorney who has the expertise and also has your best interest at heart, this is the law firm for you!
Jeff you’re amazing, and I appreciate all you have done for me in my case!
We won, Cheers!

I had a sensitive conservatorship case with opposition from family members. I chose Tom because he is well informed on probate law and kept the focus on the end goal, which was the care of my loved one. He worked well with the opposing attorney and court appointed counsel. Tom was alway prepared for court and made sure I was just as prepared. I never felt rushed or felt Tom was letting the clock run for billable hours. His rate is fair and affordable for someone as knowledgeable and experienced as he.

I am most fortunate to find a wonderful, compassionate and experienced attorney as Shari Anhalt !
Although my case should have been simple, the other parties attorney deployed several unorthodox methods.These included submitting complex case law that did not apply, property liens, a subpoena, continuances, and requesting a new judge.
Shari stood steadfast during these events, researched case law, advised me and fired back with legitimate issues during these frustrating times.
After eight months, I get a call from the ex. She said “You have a very good attorney”. I said “I know”. At that point, she agreed to withdrawal all claims and pay my fees.
Thanks to Shari, Minh and Samar, I can now move on with life in retirement. Shari conducts business very thoroughly, and with ease and efficiency. I am more than pleased with the results she achieved! My highest recommendation!

My experience with Shari and the entire team was GREAT! My dad only speaks Spanish and we were desperate for a lawyer. The first meting we had with her my dad knew she was the one. She explained everything to me and I translated. My dad always had questions that Shari always had an answer to. The language barrier was never a problem because she knew what my dad wanted. At the end of every court date my dad would say she did great she was fierce! She knows exactly what she's doing. Shari and Minh my father and I will forever be grateful what you did for us. Thank you so much!
Highly RECOMMEND.
