I have worked with Will Kronenberg for over ten years. He has handled multiple cases involving construction defect, professional liability, general liability, and products liability. He is creative in his approach to developing a defense strategy that will provide the best results. He adapts to any situation and has honed his communication and interviewing skills to an art. He is one of the few trial lawyers that I have worked with that actually tries cases on a regular basis, but more importantly, he wins. I would highly recommend him as defense counsel in almost any kind of liability case, especially those involving complex issues and even tough time constraints. Whatever it is, he WILL get it done and it WILL be done well.

Ms. Rubinoff represented me several years ago during an escalating employee/employer dispute with Patelco Credit Union. Her calm disposition put me at ease during a very frustating period. She asked excellent questions during the fact-finding stage. She pushed me to be candid where I was concerned that the truth might not help me. She provided me with a map for securing closure in my relationship with a former employer.
I was immediately impressed with how quickly she responded to messages even if she was only advising me that she would be unavailable for a while. I was kept current on all communications between her office and the employer's attorneys. Ms. Rubinoff helped me to organize my thoughts and articulate my percieved harm. In addition she was able to help my then wife feel comfortable with the legal process as well. We did not walk away from the negotiations with large amounts of money and that never seemed to be her focus; we walked away with my dignity firmly in place having been represented in the most professional and aggressive way possible , given my individual circumstances.

This attorney was assigned me in 2010 in my age discrimination case against an East Bay employer. For 6 months, we conferred on a weekly basis, to identify a full palette of discriminatory actions taken by my former employer. Mr. Darahan was attentive, thorough, & helped me think through the complex issues. Together, with the help of one of the partners in the law firm, we were able to get come to a satisfactory mediated settlement with said employer. I would not hesitate to recommend him to someone fighting an age-discrimination matter.

What makes Grace different from other attorneys is she feels deep empathy for the people she represents. She takes on their fight, even if it is uncomfortable for her.
Technically, Grace is a talented and deft attorney. She is level headed and presents a cool demeanor, especially when tensions are high. This enables her to be calm, logical and clearly lead the path forward.
If she thinks you are innocent or wrongly accused, she becomes a true advocate. Grace is a seasoned professional, but maintains her belief in justice for all. She is not in the legal profession for money, and could have easily been in a more lucrative career. I am extremely grateful that she helped me and my family.

I went through a bumpy divorce several years and ago and appreciated Adam's advocacy, insight, and strategy. He listened to me, and worked hard to ensure that my needs in the split were met. I also appreciated his flexibility: when we finally went to court, we negotiated a settlement very quickly. Adam is very client-centered and was always transparent and realistic about our approach. He made a difficult process much easier than it could have been!

Ms Bean represented me for my immigration issue which was extremely difficult and after going to several lawyers and explain my situation, they didn't have that kind of knowledge to represent me to avoid deportation. She take care of my case very well and because of her, I was able to avoid deportation and get naturalization.

Well let me start by saying that working with Cristina Lee in my inmigration case was one of the best things i coul've done since my case was really complicated.I had overstayed (thing that i did not know until inmigration send me letter saying that i was going to get deported if i did not show up for this hearing). I was so worried because i have 3 kids and i had couple of misdeaminors against me so i felt nothing was on my favor. It was a mess and a horrible waiting time in my life. Cristina and her hard work, caring and dedication to my case made it possible for me to stay here with my family. I thank god for giving Cristina wisdom to handle this hard case and giving me favor. I highly reccomend Cristina as an Inmigration attorney, she is very prepared for any case. She will try her best to get your case solve in you favor believe me im one of them. Thank u Cristina, from all of us..

Jesper Rasmussen is a truly skilled trial lawyer. I met Jasper in the early 1990’s when we were opposing counsel in a case that involved a serious injury to an ironworker. I soon came to realize that Jesper’s collegial demeanor was no sign of weakness. He deftly represented his client’s interests through both the trial and appellate courts with a professionalism that is all too lacking in our “civil” court system. Since that time, Jesper has honed his advocacy skills to the point where he is thoroughly effective and nearly imperturbable regardless of the stakes involved in any litigation. When I need a hard-nosed lawyer who can get the job done with unparalleled good humor, I will call on my colleague and friend, Jesper Rasmussen.

Kim is an excellent, seasoned lawyer who tells it like it is-- but in a nice way. She is a leader with her own practice-- this experience and expertise in the field makes Kim a big fish, and she would do well to take on larger clients engaging in new or existing business or real estate transactions. I can tell she is committed to honoring her humanitarian values when doing business: Scala is generous and cares about the people behind the deal and making sure that the agreement works out for everyone involved. She advised me on engaging in a new business venture and I couldn't be more happy with her response and our interaction. Kim also was a small business owner herself-- so she understands the legality of an endeavor but also the other intangible rewards that make us entrepreneurs. Highly recommended for general business counsel, contracts law, strategic advising, real estate.

James provided the best experience. He represented me in an eviction case that was extremely difficult. He was attentive, available, patient and responsive whenever I needed answers. He allowed me to vent and listened to me. I felt heard and understood. He worked with me and won the case. He was veryknowledgeable and when needed he sought confirmation from others to ensure we made the right decisions. I feel he is worth every penny I paid and more. His fees are reasonable and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney

Devin is hardworking and very helpful. I highly recommend him if you need a lawyer. He spends over one hour with me during our initial phone call consultation and then another hour+ when he interviewed me in his office. He also would return my calls and emails immediately. I think frankly this is one of the few lawyers that I would trust with something as serious as my legal issues. He is a very smart confident trustworthy person.

I had spent the morning calling around to different lawyer offices and getting the same type of service - getting transferred to intake, giving up loads of personal information only to be told that someone will call me back within a week maybe possibly sooner, and I couldn’t even get basic questions answered.
Not at Devin Coyle Law. I called, got a simple answering machine and left my number with a brief explanation. A couple hours later and someone called me back directly. He was very kind and polite and I didn’t have to give up a bunch of personal information in order to get my questions answered.
I am going to do the things he suggested and if down the road I turns out that I do need a lawyer for this matter, Devin Coyle Law will be the first place I call.
Three words to sum up my experience: Informative, Responsive, Direct.

I would recommend Bob Salinas to anyone facing bad behavior from a landlord. We went to him when our landlord tried to illegally evict every person in our complex, and he guided us through the process of collecting evidence and responding to the eviction threats, and then helped us through mediation and to a settlement that kept us all in our homes.
The thing I really want to stress, though, is how kind and patient he is with his clients. Needless to say we were beyond anxious and stressed out over the landlord's threats, but he was always there for us, giving us so much more of his time than he had to -- even though our case was much smaller than many of the other cases his firm handles.
Going with the Salinas Law Group is one of the best decisions we've ever made.

Ariel represented and guided me through a collaborative divorce. Throughout the entire process she was professional, reliable, patient and communicative.She was compassionate and supportive through a very difficult and emotional process. Ariel understands the nuances and challenges of this major life transition and has the tools, both her own, and referrals to other specialists, to represent her clients to fullest extent. Whenever an issue arises I know I will get excellent advice or representation if needed. I highly recommend Ariel for any type of family law issue that needs mediating and representation.

I used Winger Mediation many years ago. My wife at the time and I both wanted an efficient and non-conflict separation, for ourselves but more so for our daughter and Ariel was the exact right choice for us. She guided us through the process and we were able to get to a smooth conclusion without a lot of challenge. When issues arose, she explained the balance of interests and was able to get us to a mutually agreed to solution. Highly recommend her services.

Cannot say enough, great things about my experience with Steven. I’ve had several lawyers throughout my life, and majority of them are terrible. They don’t communicate, they don’t pay attention to details, they don’t HEAR what you have to say. So many just feel like paper pushers. Not Steven. He was available within a day if I ever needed to talk, but I was so comfortable leaving the case with him (which I felt his compassion right away) and just not having to think anything about it that I never had to reach out. He was great at keeping me updated throughout the process, and the case ended with a great success! Very very highly recommended.

Steven was a competent and passionate attorney while representing me. He really went out of his way to maintain all level of professionalism, empathy, and kindness. I was most impressed with his continual efforts to always maintain active communication. I was never left questioning or doubting, and he always got right back to me via email or on the phone. He also showed me that he was experienced and could hold his own in his respective areas of legal expertise that concerned me. I would highly recommend Steven, and I would use his services again in any applicable future legal matters.

I could not have been so successful in my personal injury case without Steven's expertise, guidance, and generous support. Steven held my hand every step of the way through my complicated case, and guided me with patience, thoughtfulness, and confidence. Not only did Steven help me win my case, but he helped me reach a settlement amount much higher than I had dreamed of. He was always available by phone or email to answer my questions, and explained complicated legal terms in simple, easy to understand language. I have the highest regards for Steven and I could not recommend him more highly!
