I met Miles almost 4 years ago while seeking a divorce from a 20+ year marriage. The divorce process was particularly difficult and messy. At one point there was a discussion my divorce might make new case law if we ended up in trial. Miles stuck with me through every step of the way explaining the process. He worked tirelessly into the evenings and weekends to ensure he kept on top of my case. He knew my case inside and out. When opposing counsel presented inaccurate information and lies, he responded with facts in a succinct professional manner. He dug into the details to find issues opposing counsel conveniently missed. He made himself available and returned emails promptly. His professionalism never wavered regardless of the opposition’s negative comments. His writing skills are masterful. He’s dedicated to his clients and tells it like it is. Miles is an attorney you can trust. If you're looking for an honest thorough accomplished attorney who cares about his client, I highly recommend Miles.

I especially appreciated Miles’ ability to explain complex legal concepts and terms to me in a simplified way. He was thoughtful, thorough and knowledgable. Thanks to Miles, my case was settled with terms that well exceeded my expectations.
I trust Miles completely. He has earned my respect and highest rating. Highly recommend.

Brit represented me in a consulting and coaching capacity during my contentious divorce, property division, and custody case. She is a strong advocate but never did anything to create unnecessary conflict or hostility. She was able to decrease the conflict in our case while also achieving a great financial and custody outcome for me. As my divorce coach, she helped me figure out how to set up my life post-divorce and be the best dad I could be to my son. She’s well worth the cost and very honest at all times during the representation. I am glad I chose her to be my teammate in this project.

"Brit represented me in a high-conflict divorce. Brit was responsive, sharp, and helped me save a lot of money that would have otherwise been wasted on litigation. She showed me there was light/hope on the other side of a difficult situation. I trust her advice and would recommend her to anyone!'

Anca, an old friend, provided exceptional legal guidance when I desperately reached out to her after a family member passed away unexpectedly without a will or trust. With the family residing in India, Anca's expertise in probate law was invaluable. She provided clear guidance with explanations, empathy, and professionalism . I highly recommend Anca for anyone needing assistance with wills and trusts in California. Thank you, Anca, for your support and guidance.

The universe smiled upon me when I was referred to John Martin. Just being able to explain my very emotionally charged issue(Probate) to someone who actually listened, asked valid, pertinent questions and was able to explain the reality and totality of my situation was the RELIEF I desperately needed. After speaking to John, I felt as if a huge weight was lifted and hope returned. I don't know if he is going to take my case but just speaking to him was enough for me. He restored belief in, not only myself, but my reason & cause for going through this horrible situation. I cannot adequately express in words what he did for me! 5 stars isn't enough!

We used John Martin to create our Living Trust and later, to draw up a legal papers regarding a shared equity purchase. In both cases, John Martin was incredibly knowledgable, professional, a wealth of wisdom - truly went beyond what we had expected. John is personable and very comfortable to work with. We have referred him to numerous others and every time people thank us for doing so.

John is a very professional lawyer that clearly explains his services. He listens to your concerns and gets back to you in a timely way. His prices are fair and his ongoing service is very useful. After a serious accident last year he worked with my family to find the proper legal sources that I needed. I then could recover in peace knowing things had been taken care of.

This firm and its lawyers do not care for their clients at all. They take months to reply to emails. They constantly give unacceptable excuses (fracture, holidaying with grandchildren, sick, computer broke down, assistant is away, the list goes on). The management are equally uninterested. They have still not closed a rather straightforward matter of mine and it’s been nearly 5 years with no end in sight. Save yourself some trouble and go to some other firm.

Robert is and is not a lawer. Robert IS a lawyer in the sense that he knows his technical stuff. Robert IS NOT a lawyer in the sense that he does not have a money gouging attitude that one sees in some lawyers. Robert remains focused enough to speak and advise where he needs to in a constructive manner and he will tell the 2 spouses to work things out by and for themselves [ due to subject matter involving personal preferences ]. Robert took a personal interest in both of us, at the same time did not abandon his professional conduct. I recommend Robert Menache highly to those that need a lawyer to deal w/ legal issues and repeat that Robert IS NOT A LAWEYER in capricious nor financially gouging conduct and mannerisms.

It would be difficult to find a better estate planning attorney than Analisa Pratt in the Bay Area. She is thorough, organized, and extremely smart. She worked with us to revise an outdated trust, and gave us an estate plan, and we are thrilled with the final product. Now we can forget about it, and focus on other things. Here are some of the things we liked:
• Flat Fee: We paid ½ of fee upon signing the agreement, and the rest upon completion of the finished product. She offered to redo anything we didn’t like at any time for no additional charge. There were no other fees.
• Questionnaire: We filled out a questionnaire with our own information before the first meeting. This prevents numerous changes and greatly reduces the chance for errors.
• Graphics and Explanations: We found her visual explanations made the intricacies of the estate plan much easier to follow
• Trust Language: The estate plan used easy to follow English instead of legalese. It was clear and concise and easy to understand.
• Communication: She stayed in touch by E mail and phone to address any questions we might have.
• Summary: We found Analisa Pratt to be an excellent estate planning attorney. We recommend her without any reservations.

Analisa and I were laws school classmates. Although we weren’t that close, we had quite a few classes together as we were both in the Honors program. Even back then, Analisa had always striked me as an extremely intelligent, hardworking and genuinely kind person with great work ethics. Upon learning that Analisa has opened her own practice, I immediately went to her for my estate needs even though her office is 1.5 hours away from me. I didn’t bother to shop around as I knew that I could count on Analisa to do a fantastic job. Analisa was very patient and a pleasure to work with throughout the process. Every time I had questions(and I had quite a lot), she always responded quickly and thoroughly addressed any concerns I had. Towards the end of the process, Analisa was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond her scope of service in helping me get everything wrapped up before I started a new job. I’m completely happy with Analisa’s service and would highly recommend her.

I highly recommend Ellen for any real estate or business situations needing legal representation. My family was involved in the sale of some property that lasted several years. A family member with extensive real estate dealings recommended Ellen early on, explaining, 'She's the best.' How right they were. Ellen's astute knowledge, poise, professionalism, and ability to quickly assess our situation and make recommendations was just what we needed to finalize the deal. She made the process much easier and smoother than what we'd anticipated.
Thank you, Ellen. You indeed are the best.

I have worked with Ellen many times over the years. Ellen is very attentive, sharp, skilled, and an excellent lawyer to run legal issues by.
She handled all of my complex contracts involving raw land and residential home sales. This required extreme patience and full understanding of the terms of the deals presented before me. She listens and communicates very well, and educated me with possibilities that I took to make informed decisions.
If you are looking for an expert in real estate law, Ellen is your go to lawyer.

I consulted George in a sex discrimination matter. He took the time to listen to me and fully understand my issues. George was able to negotiate a strong settlement with my former employer. Although we did not have to go to Court to resolve my case, I would have been quite comfortable with George representing me in Court.

George was an incredible resource and support for me. I worked with George for over 10 years and, to date, have found him to be the best in-house employment counsel, I've ever encountered. So much of what I know, today, about employment law stems back to the initiation I had with George. He's a brilliant strategist and an excellent strategic partner. He doesn't "pontificate" about how to handle a situation, but instead, asks his "client" what they want the outcome to be, and then helps them find a realistic solution, with a thorough risk assessment in the process. I would highly recommend George Duesdieker.

Brian has is taking care of some patent work for us. In fact he won an award for his work w/ us and I am very happy for him.
With Brian we were able to explain our goals and what we thought were our waterloos. He is concise, has a great team working w/ him and has always kept our best interests in mind. For example, one of our patents is in a provisional status. Yet, we are using the device in public. He explained to us how we could do that and what to watch out for as we allow our device to be seen in the public domain.
I highly recomend him and can't find enough words to do so.
