I own my own medical practice and recently needed to hire an attorney regarding an issue with one of my employees. I was referred to Mr. Ebriani by another attorney, I was able to schedule an appointment and meet with him at his office in a timely fashion. I was very impressed with my first appointment with Mr. Ebriani. He is very knowledgeable in this field and was able to start right away on my case, easing my mind and allowing me to move forward. After a few visits and much work on his part, the issue was resolved and all worked out for the better. I can not say enough about Mr. Ebriani's professionalism, he took all of my calls immediately, always on time and most important, got the job done quickly. His fees are reasonable and always assured me he would resolve this problem quickly which he was able to do. I highly recommend Mr. Ebriani for any legal needs.

Saman is my go to attorney when it comes to all my legal issues. He is a hard working and trust worthy person who goes out of his way to get the best results for his clients, whether the case is big or small. Mr. Ebriani recently agreed to represent me on a case of mine for which I suffered damages after other attorneys did not take my case and he settled my case soon after achieving a great outcome. I highly recommend Mr. Ebriani for all your legal needs!

I have to say I'm more than blessed to have been referred to Saman. Words can't express his quality of work and representation. He's known in the industry to be a top dog in negotiations and settlements that are always in favor of his clients and doesn't accept no as an answer! He is the man you want on your side for sure and always goes above and beyond expectation. If fact I've retained him for several services and if he doesn't specialize in it he has a referral for you! Great Lawyer and guaranteed if you retain him you will be a very happy client in the long run!

when I got into a car accident - all I wanted was to go see a doctor to get rid of my back pain but not all doctors accept patients from a car accident. - I called Iris and she got me assigned to a doctor right away. The doctors she sent me were really good. She took genuine care of my health and checked up on me to make sure that the treatment was working. No need to follow up with her - she is always on top of the case. I'd hire her again - but hopefully I don't get into any accidents in the future :)

We consulted Alena for assistance in our case unknowing if we really had one and if we could achieve justice for a very special person in our family. From the beginning Alena was compassionate, caring and very knowledgeable. We felt comfortable and at ease knowing our case was in her hands. She was very informative and she explained things to us that made sense, she let us know what was occurring and what will happen throughout the whole process. This case meant so much to our family, not for compensation but for justice for the man whom held our family together.. She was our saving grace from the very beginning. The outcome was more then we expected and we will forever be grateful for her. We can never explain how much this meant to us. Thank you Alena for your hard work and dedication, you fought for our family when not many would. We appreciated you then and now. Thank you again. Teresa & Family

Alena is smart, strong, fearless, resourceful, resilient and compassionate. She represented me and my wife when everyone else was too scared to take on such a big hospital in such a complicated malpractice case. During the most brutal, hardest time in our lives, Alena was there for us. Fought for us. And made sure we were taken care of. We'll never forget her.

Alena handled my criminal case and did so brilliantly. I was extremely overwhelmed having been arrested and having no idea what to do next. A good friend suggested I call Alena. He told me that Alena was aggressive in court and had an ability to communicate with the prosecutors in a way that would benefit resolution of my case. Boy, was that true. Alena showed up in court and all I needed to do was watch. She knew her way around the courtroom and the prosecutors. She was very friendly but assertive. She fought for me and explained everything to me clearly and willingly. After several appearances my case was resolved. I Was so relieved and so thankful!

I was referred to Joshua for a wrongful termination. I was very nervous when I first met him but, his pleasant attitude quickly put me at ease. I felt relieved when he took my case and fought to bring it to an exceptional resolution! He is very knowledgeable, professional and considerate. I really liked that he was upfront and honest from the beginning, which is why I hired him. He was genuinely interested in me and my case. Always kept me informed about the progression of the case and its value. I definitely recommend Joshua to anyone who is in search of a professional and experienced attorney who will fight for them and their rights.

Joshua handled my troublesome wrongful termination case from the beginning and brought it to an amicable resolution without the need for litigation. He is an excellent attorney, he is very knowledgeable, experience and cares about his clients The difference between Joshua and other attorneys is that Joshua actually listens, pays attention to and cares about you and the predicament you are in. He is genuinely interested in making sure Justice is served. My case was very convoluted with thousands of pages of documents. Nobody could understand what the underlying problem was with my employer. However, after quickly reviewing my documents and having a meeting with me, Joshua knew every detail about my case including the wrongful actions of my employer. I was very impressed because nobody else could understand the wrongful actions of my employer. He was very upfront and honest from the beginning and was genuinely interested in me, what I wanted out of the case and about settling the case. He was very quick to identify potential conflicts in my case and quickly came up with a cost-efficient and time efficient strategy to resolve my case, which he did . I would recommend Joshua to any friend or family member. He is a very ethical and knowledgeable attorney and will ensure that you will not be pushed around or played it around with. Danny Vafa

I wish I could give Mr. Barth more stars than five. He was very responsive from the beginning. As you can imagine, I was scared and didn't know who to turn to when I found out that I was named in a $2,000,000.00 lawsuit. Give this man a cape, because he is a true superhero attorney. Mr. Barth figured out right away that I should have never been named as a defendant in the case, but we still had to fight it. He clearly explained my options from the beginning and was thorough about what the worst outcome could be. There were 4 serious charges against me, and Mr. Barth was able to get 3 of them shortly removed and the last charge was negotiated down to a $1,000 payment for me to be removed completely from the case. I'm thinking, $1000 and I'm out, let's do it. However, Mr. Barth even got that removed and I was released from the case. I recommend Jason Barth to all in need of a smart and tough negotiating attorney. Bill Abalos - Inspection Pro

Zainah Alfi and Genevieve Jenkins are in a class by themselves as attorneys. You could not be in better hands. Their knowledge of the law is so far and above most attorneys. They combine their legal representation with a tremendous sense of kindness and caring for their clients. You could not find a better advocate for your legal matter.

I have had the best experience of my life, working with Excelsis Law, specifically with Genevieve. She is the most sweetest and kindest attorneys I have ever come across my life. I reached out to a dozens of attorneys before finalizing Genevieve and realized it was the best decision ever. She was very patient throughout these years and answered any and every question I had through the time my case was going on. She never judged me or made me feel bad about anything. In fact she empathized and felt sorry for what had happened. Towards the end, I lost a loved one and couldn’t make it to the trial, she handled it all without me and fought for justice. She studied, researched, and presented my case very professionally and I can proudly say that I won!!! Thanks to Genevieve! A special thanks to Zara for communicating everything from the attorney to me and from my side to the attorney. I would highly recommend this law firm and this attorney for any of your employment and housing needs.

To say that Zainah and the team at Excelsis Law is above reproach would be an understatement. After fruitlessly navigating our legal system, I was referred to Excelsis Law and wish that recommendation came sooner. If you have a legal need, simply recommending this team is not enough. I would implore anyone with such a need to look no further than the phenomenal team here. Excellent communication, coordination, and execution of plans.

Anytime I had any questions, he was always an email or phone call away. He was always great at replying back to all my questions and concerns. I recommend this lawyer to fight for you. I had several lawyers tell me that I didn't have a case because I was employed for only two weeks or didn't have enough evidence to support my case. This lawyer along with his partner, Johnathan, were very confident and knowledgeable in their field of law. During my initial meeting with them, they told me I had a case and that they would help me. They won my case for me for great results! It's the best feeling to have a lawyer who will do anything and everything to help you defeat and win your case.

Christine was helping me and my ex-husband with dividing our assets and writing an agreement. From the beginning, Christine was trustworthy, professional and responsive. She always kept me updated, and responded to my emails and phone calls quickly. She is not concerned about making money, but cares more about her clients being satisfied. Because she loves what she is doing and she is very dedicated to her job, she is a good mediator. Thank you Christine for your help.

It's difficult to write a glowing review due to the context (a divorce) as it would sound a bit odd. That said, I did a lot of research before choosing Christine and she more than lived up to my expectations. She is very good at finding middle ground in a difficult situation and is good at bringing both parties back to the topic at hand and explaining the different facets. If you're looking for someone who cares, she's it. She really does try to make things equitable and less painful for everyone. I can't say I'd recommend a divorce lawyer as that's a very hard place for anyone to be, but if you're in that situation, I'd say go this route with her instead of pointlessly fighting a battle that's already been lost. She'll make what's very difficult a bit easier. And that's worth quite a lot.

When Josh came onto my case, I was an emotional, scared client who had experienced a traumatic & complicated wrongful termination. Not only did he demonstrate an incredible understanding of the law & a tactical supremacy (on more than one occasion, he made the defense absolutely defenseless), he immediately put my mind at ease by explaining why it was important to fight this case. He has a perspective on justice that exceeds monetary compensation and that was something that made me feel really comfortable. Wrongful termination is a traumatic experience, and it was so refreshing to have someone in my corner who wasn't just fighting for a monetary outcome, but truly looking to make a difference in my life and preventing the same thing from happening to someone else. I would recommend Josh to anyone who finds themself in need of an employment lawyer!

Josh was referred to me by another attorney. Essentially my case revolved around a mid-2020 cancel culture event with my employer. This resulted in my wrongful termination along with Josh unpacking a number of other claims as we sifted through my almost four years of employment. My understanding was that the employer, over the years, had mistreated me. Josh knew the law and precedents that tied to the mistreatment. The list of claims was long. At its core, my case was about an employer that irrationally reacted to a troll site post on social media tied to a post from me. While the company had invited everyone to share ideas, because it declared it was open to receiving ideas, I posted a further sharing of conservative ideas. This did not suit the political views of the employer. Not only was I wrongfully terminated, but the employer also defamed me in the process. After almost a year of pre-trial litigation, Josh was able to secure a very good outcome that resulted in an excellent economic settlement and resolution of non-monetary issues. Josh cared about my non-monetary issues and not just the financial settlement. That meant a lot to me As a business executive for 25 years, I understood the unpredictable nature of litigation. Josh and the firm, at EVERY step of the way, navigated the case to its successful conclusion. Thank you, Josh, for everything!!

Mr Winter, by far, was the best lawyer I have ever dealt with. Up until about 7 years ago, I had never worked with a lawyer. Then, I had a chance to work with several on many different cases. Mr. Winter stood out from all of our lawyers. As soon as he was briefed on our situation, he knew exactly what course of action to take and laid out what steps we needed to do to move forward. He informed us on what he thought would occur through the course of our resolutions and everything that he had directed, worked out perfectly. He was very good in terms of communication back and forth and I never felt like I was waiting to hear back.

Mr. Stephen Bernard is as good as they get! I have had the pleasure of having him represent me on multiple cases. Without getting to much into detail about my cases, he is the type of attorney that gets you off of major felony cases without you even doing any real time. I'm talking maybe probation and that's if he didn't already get your case dismissed! He is a real shark in the court room. His attention to detail, along with his extensive knowledge, and his very assertive attitude is everything you need in a good lawyer. This guy literally goes into court so confident that he just starts dictating! The DA stands no chance against his rebuttals and experience. Let me add also that his CONNECTIONS ;] and experts are phenomenal! This guy gets a 15 out of 10 in my book. He made me feel so comfortable, kept me informed, and treated me case like it was his only one. He is a real hard worker. I honestly couldn't ask for more.

I’m happy to provide my full and unreserved recommendation for Brian and his litigation services. His aggressive style is balanced with a nuanced understanding of the litigation process. Brian was totally responsive and always took the time to explain to me the various options at each stage - with real life examples from his recent day-to-day experience “in the trenches.” I am impressed with his ability and forward thinking, and I expect to have an ongoing relationship with his firm.

Brian fought aggressively from the outset involving large national dispute, got most of the case dismissed by the Court early in the case, and obtained a favorable resolution before trial. Brian was diligent, always had a game plan in mind and executed the strategy perfectly.

My personal experience with this law firm has shown me the difference between a big law firm and a mid-size law firm. The team at Bral& Associates reviews cases with as much detail as possible, the process of the case from beginning to end is laid out perfectly. Knowing every step of the way gives a sense of clarity and peace which is greatly important being in an unforseen situation such as an aut accidet or slip and fall. If you have been involved in an accident or suffered an injury as a result of the negligence of another party, call Bral & Associates. If they don't win you don't pay.

Sean is a great Attorney. He knows the law very well. Let me start by saying with the right formulas put together we get a wonderful result which describes Mr. Sean Bral's approach to every issue there is to know about personal injury & of course his associates that are very accommodating to resolve any & every issue that comes across. Now to describe the formula are the following 7 DESERVING words; Starting with his "Credentials", along with Clarity, which creates "Confidence", then his "Charisma", & "Courage" & the most important "Courtesy", makes his office to be above all, & finally the "Credibility" to make successful results to happen, are the 7 ingredients in making a Sean Bral's Law firm led by a true winner, Mr. Sean Bral himself & foremost his professionalism in the filed of law & Yes, I was & always am an honored client, because I like to follow the Winners! As I have had tough experiences with how the other law firms handle cases, just like many others,that had felt they had no hope to win, but I became rest assured, that Sean is a winner, & the real reason for that is he is extremely educated & knowledgeable & knows the way & he remembers every word of the book of law where he is specialized in to represent any injury or property damage case & so many other cases that I have seen him win! A good example was myself, it was when I was so confused & lost my hopes, in a property damage case in particular that I had a feeling that was a dead end, in which cause all I knew in my heart that I was right, yet I was treated unfairly, he won that case that changed my life for the better. I recall just a few hours before I made the call I was so down & hopeless & just 60 short days later when it was all was settled & done, saying: He was one of the fairest & kindest persons I have ever came across & that I had met in my entire life, is an understatement. The best part of it all, is that I that he is now one of my dearest friends as well & I know if I need any help he will be there for me & Let me conclude that not only I have found Mr. Sean Bral to be a person of extreme courtesy, that listens & consults together with his associates, & he is very connected to extremely professional advisers that are very knowledgeable in the field of law, very encouraging hope & patience, while understanding the agony , his compassion is to ease the pain of shock with calming words & their knowledge of law will assure you " The Winning of Your Case" The consistency that he has is beyond comparison. He researches cause him to keep on winning including so many other cases ( knock on wood) for me & I know he has done the same winnings for many others! I want to say: Thank you Mr. Bral, I do not know what I would do without you & your professional assistants & your dedicated associates. You are the master in what you do, & You proved to me that there was a calm after every storm! A.E

I can't express enough how much I appreciate having found Steve to help me through a very complex and difficult probate. My grandfather passed away without a will or trust and a lot of assets and children that completely dislike each other - it's been messy to say the least. I've worked in the legal profession for over 20 years and was referred to Steve Grant by an attorney I work with, as I personally didn't know anyone who specialized in Probate Law. One thing about probate law is that the court mandates or sets the attorney's fees based off of the value of the estate. The fee is also paid from / out of the estate... so you don't pay by the hour, so if you're reading this - you're probably searching for a good probate lawyer and wondering if you can afford a really good attorney, and in a probate situation, it's really up to you, the individual (aka the administrator of the estate) to find the best possible attorney (for the set fee that the estate will pay anyways). Someone that will give you their time, attention and expertise...someone who cares... Well, I'm thankful to have found Steve and that's why I'm even taking the time to write this... In writing this review, I thought it might be helpful to list out the words that come to mind to describe Steve and what kind of a person/probate attorney he is to have on your side. Steve is: Very patient Articulate Great at making himself available when you need to speak with or email him Intelligent - Probate law is very specialized and he really knows what he's doing and cares! Good Communicator - great at keeping me informed, organized and on the ball with due dates Works well with others - handles even the most difficult people very well (again, patience is a virtue) Handles complex matters very well Always pleasant and professional Logical and practical Always looking out for his client's best interest Excellent with follow through I'm sure there are many more qualities to add to this list, but if you're looking for a great probate lawyer, I believe this will really help break things down for you. It would have helped me a lot!!!

Being out of state, I was concerned about hiring someone I had not yet met to handle my deceased family member's estate. Stephen E. Grant has exceeded my expectations and made this difficult process as easy and smooth as possible. He is a true professional; very easy to work with, easy to get in contact with, and has your best interest in mind. He walked me through every step of the process and maintained excellent contact, answering all questions I had. He offered great recommendations as well, especially Flans & Weiner Real Estate Auctioneers, and instilled confidence that everything was being taken care of even in my absence. I highly recommend Stephen Grant, especially to those in out of state situations like myself. He will not disappoint.

Thank you Colin from Wilshire Law Frim for taking care of me. I call for a free consultation and was assured that they win most of their cases without me even having to go to court! As he said He has recovered over $35 million for his client's, getting favorable verdicts in three different states. Sounds great if you ask my option ! If you're coming to Wilshire Law I highly recommend you ask for Colin. P.s. This is my second accident and I must say this is the best experience I've had by far.

Colin is one of those few attorney's that have a genuine interest in his clients well being. After I was struck by a vehicle as a pedestrian, Colin was the one who negotiated the max possible settlement. He's a very approachable down to earth person you can talk to but whom is also excellent at negotiating. He's completely honest & upfront which is probably a reflection of his good relationships in the industry (very valuable). You'd be lucky to have him on your side.

After dealing with many other law firms that were extremely subpar, would never return calls, or could never directly speak to an attorney, I found Alex. Alex is absolutely one of the best worker's comp attorneys, and people I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. My specific case was related to a right foot injury where I had multiple surgeries, and reconstructive work performed. Extremely professional, would always either answer direct calls, or return them almost immediately. He helped me resolve a worker's comp case that was getting quite old, and we reached a very favorable settlement in the end. Alex is highly knowledgeable in the subject matter, and was able to direct me through the negotiation phase of a case, and everything that entailed through to the very end. I would highly, highly recommend that anyone that is searching for a workers compensation attorney give Alex a call, and find out what he might be able to do for you. Thank you for your help!

I was introduced to Farinaz Cohen and other attorneys by my friends, I had to consult and get some answers about 2 years ago. I was very skeptical at first, after talking to so many people trying to get some answers for my problem, we all know how difficult to trust anyone these days, I will be very honest, somehow after just talking about my problem, I forgot that I was talking to a person I never met and I don’t know yet, but because I felt in her voice concern and care and very important a very pleasant person, my next question was when can we meet. She did help me and my family a lot, and now me and my family, we have the best Attorney, friend and someone we all trust with anything. I also would love to suggest, do not make any decisions before you talk to Farinaz, because you do not want to talk to just attorney, you must talk to someone how is a great person and very knowledgeable, just to begin with.

Trustworthy, sharp, and passionate. Those are the three words that initially come to mind when describing Farniaz's work ethic. She is quite ambitious and will go to all ends to get the job done. It is clear that she has found her calling as an attorney and she devotes all of her attention, mind, and heart to each case. Finding an attorney that you can trust with your personal matters is a gift. Farniaz is that lawyer. It was a pleasure to receive her direction and I look forward to working with her again.

Mr. Hanasab had great knowledge about personal injury law and the process that my case would go through. He thoroughly guided me from the beginning of the case until settlement. He consistently addressed my concerns about my case and was very responsive. He gave me a balanced and thoughtful analysis of the facts and the potential hurdles to my case. I highly recommend Mr. Hanasab if you have been injured and are looking for a very good lawyer to be a strong advocate for your rights.

The dog kennel who was at fault for letting out the wrong dog (who bit me), was adamant about not helping me with my medical bills until Jon stepped in.

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.
