Ms. Sharweed helped me file for my immigration documents (permanent resident card, etc.) number of years ago. Of all legal experts that I had to deal with she stood out as a very capable, honest and highly ethical professional. She was very upfront in her assessment of the chances of successful resolution of any immigration matter, but once she took the case, one could rest assured that Sawsan would put the maximum effort into it. As a result, I have recommended her services to several friends and family members. I would unreservedly recommend her services.

Sawsan went above and beyond helping my wife and I during our very first phone call! Sawsan took the time to dig into the details, recommend how to move forward and did so in a manner more polite than any other lawyer we spoke with. I can't recommend Sawsan enough! Thank you!

Shab is the best lawyer. I am a business owner and few years back, I was sued by an employee who died when he was behind a truck and the loading area. I got a WC claim and also got sued for $500,000. I had an attorney first who basically told me that it was hopeless. I am glad I did not give up and kept looking for a new lawyer. A friend of mine referred me to Shab. He took the case and started asking questions and looked into the case. He did not give up and found enough evidence that made my case better. The details and legalese aside, Shab settled the case for a fraction. Shab saved my business. If I had not changed to him, I would have been bankrupt. I am not sure how I would have survived. Big thanks to Shab for great work. This is a great firm. They care.

My husband and I hired Robert Hoyt, "Bob" as our attorney on a friends recommendation to handle an accident case which involved my seventeen year old daughter being run into by another vehicle. My daughter lost her car as it was totaled when it was struck by a large SUV driven by someone completely at fault. Thankfully, my daughter came out of the wreck ok, but with some back pain and personal trauma. Of course the other driver's insurance tried to claim that my daughter was equally to blame which was completely false. Mr. Hoyt carefully reviewed all the facts, visited the accident site, interviewed witnesses and started a tedious battle involving both of the parties insurance companies which ultimately resulted in a settlement large enough to replace my daughter's car and allowed monetary compensation for her pain and suffering. Mr. Hoyt also handled ALL the health insurance, hospital and medical fees called upon as my daughter required chiropractic therapy, X-rays and the like to make sure she was completely well. He even policed my daughter's insurance company as they wrongly tried to claim parts of her settlement. We can't thank "Bob" enough for his expert professionalism, his hard work and diligence, but most of all for his caring and personal attention to my daughter's well being. We will always be grateful to "Bob" and now call him a great friend of the family.

Working with Mr. Chahine was absolutley a great experience. Being that I own a business, I was very concerned about the impact a DUI would have on both my work and my personal life. After meeting with several attorney's i decided on using Mr. Chahine, and turned out to be the best decision could have made. Not only did he get my DUI dropped down to a wet reckless, but he also somehow had the courts not suspend my drivers license. Not even for a single day. I never had to miss a single day of work. I have worked with other attorneys before, but I can honestly say I have never felt comfortable, or completley taken care of, until i worked with Mr. Chahine. Since then i have used him for all my business legal needs as well.

His ability to work with our complete team, to include accountants and Project Management makes him in this reviewer's opinion, are unique resource. While the complexity of the Partnership was exacerbated by some initial documentation oversights, John supported our position well by vigorous application of other agreement provisions.

I can easily say that David is the best real estate attorney I have ever worked with and without question one of the very best in town! Over the last three years, David has taken care of multiple real estate deals for me, mostly buying various commercial and residential properties. He has also handled all of the leases for my properties whether they have been big or small. He is a highly skilled attorney who is very sophisticated, attentive to the needs of each matter, and always gets the deal closed. One thing I love that has made him extremely valuable to my deals is that he has a lot of strong relationships with lenders, brokers, escrows, title companies, and countless others, which is immeasurable because it helps make all of my transactions go much smoother. He is worth every penny and I HIGHLY recommend him for all of your real estate needs!

As a past, present & future client of David's I can comfortably say David is among the best Real Estate attorney's I have ever worked with. I have worked with numerous attorneys, but one case in specific brought me to David and has made me a client for life. I needed a complicated multi party contract carefully constructed so that all parties were protected and that all moving parts wouldn't skip a beat. All the attorneys I spoke with couldn't come up with a way of accomplishing what we needed. Once I spoke with David, it was obvious how sophisticated and an out of the box thinker he was. He developed a safe and easy alternative option that addressed all our concerns. David is a professional who's first objective is to solve and address his clients concerns. I fully endorse David Tabibian.

I found Douglas Weitzman on Avvo related to my real estate dispute. Weeks after signing the P&S the buyers attempted to cancel the contract using the ‘inspection contingency’ as their stated basis—and wanted to back out—but I thought ‘changing their minds’ was not a valid reason to cancel the contract since I provided the buyers with a full disclosure—which described in detail all the current conditions of the property. The buyers commissioned their own inspection report—and the conditions identified in the buyers’ inspection report were the same conditions identified in my disclosure—revealing nothing new—as there were no repairs needed. Despite this—the buyers exercised their 'inspection contingency' within the 10-day inspection period, during which time the buyer is allowed to have the property inspected to reveal any potential issues that could 'void' the contract. Despite the fact that there 'weren't any' new unsatisfactory conditions on the property—the 'inspection contingency' is obviously a scapegoat that buyers can use to back out of a deal. Weitzman asked me if I issued a 'notice to perform'—a real estate tool designed to make buyers stick to agreed-upon deadlines that are defined in the real estate purchase agreement—issuing a notice typically gives the buyer 48 hours to remedy the situation at hand—if the buyer has still failed to comply with the agreed-upon action, ​the seller can keep the earnest money deposit in some cases. Thus, we learn that the buyers have 'no obligation' to buy until they notify sellers that all contingencies are satisfied. Weitzman gave me a free consultation and in turn helped me define the 'notice to perform' and how to use it—which can be advantageous to both buyers and sellers in the California residential purchase agreement. In this case, I am not at the 'distinct advantage' of issuing the Notice to Perform.

I worked with Ms O’Brien to negotiate a debt settlement. She was phenomenal! The professionalism and aggressiveness. With which she worked. Resolved my dilemma efficiently and effectively. In fact. The resolution was far better than my expectation. Her communication and collaboration with the opposing attorney was superb. To my bewilderment. He still relies on her for communication on my case. She was able to understand the many facets of the problem and work out the best plan of action. Work is the most important part. She was able to sort through the frustration and superfluous to get to the actionable. Unlike many attorneys. She did not require excess document collection and presentation. She requested what she needed and prepared documents as needed with minimal needs from me. appreciated her help to keep my life on track in the midst of the challenges. can’t speak highly enough of her responsiveness and her persistence in keeping the matter on track.

I had heard great things about Farar Law, so I decided to give them a call. I spoke to Joel Farar and I was immediately comfortable with him. I hired him and his staff to help me with my case.

But Farar Law changed all of that.. The attorney and his team made me feel like I was in good hands. The staff is friendly and makes you feel welcomed with open arms. I like how Farar laid everything out for my understanding of how the case would be handled. I received a phone call from their legal assistant Elsy that the insurance company of the defendant settled in my favor. I was happy when my case was finally settled. My family and friends were glad that everything worked out, and when I told them more about how Farar law helped aid in my assistance, they were even more impressed.

Attorney Deborah R. Bronner did our Living Trust, Power of Attorney, Will and Advance Health Care Directive. She also helped us put the Deed to our home in the name of our Trust. The initial phone interview was very thorough. I had a number of questions regarding our circumstances and Attorney Deborah R. Bronner took a great deal of time to give me relevant information. She walked us through the process with warmth and consideration. In addition to being knowledgeable she always kept me informed. If I had a question or just wanted to check on the progress of the documents, I always received a prompt response. She is a very knowledgeable attorney. She explained the documents very thoroughly and patiently. She is highly recommended.

Found the Law Offices of Deborah R. Bronner on Google and happy I did! Atty. Bronner was always prompt in returning my calls and answered all my questions without feeling rushed. She was punctual on both occasions we had to meet in person and very accommodating to our needs. We are thankful for her assistance and expertise in getting our estate trust done in just a matter of days in a nicely bound portfolio. I did not get a chance to check the Yelp reviews when I called Atty. Bronner's office and concur with the majority of the comments made by her former clients regarding her professionalism and compassion. She was responsive to all my questions and requests via text and email even after she was done providing service. Needless to say, I'll definitely recommend her legal services to my family and friends should the need arise. Thank you once again for all your help, Atty. Bronner, we truly appreciate it!

Christopher did an amazing job with my case; I had never dealt with the legal system before, and he helped me every step of the way (from my initial answer to the court, discovery and demands of particulars, attending my trials, all the way to getting the plaintiff who was suing me to dismiss the case). He was a great intermediate between myself and the plaintiff as well, and handled everything very professionally. I would highly recommend :)

    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.

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.

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.
