I will start by saying I did not retain Mr. Armstrong as my Attorney but I still want to leave a review for all of the help Elizabeth has provided me. She was very responsive and taught me a lot about the whole legal process. She is extremely knowledgeable and even answered my calls and messages on a Saturday and Sunday which was difficult with any other firm. I’d definitely recommend this firm to anyone seeking legal counsel.

The attorneys at Boyd Law did a fantastic job for me. I had an emergent case that required a response to be filed with the court within one business day. Staff at Boyd Law agreed to hear the facts of my case as I knew them to be, quoted me a reasonable fee for services (to which I agreed), and immediately addressed the necessary matters of my case. While my matter had significant material already available for the staff, Joshua Fabian did a masterful job arguing for me in person before a difficult judge. Joshua presented the facts clearly, addressed wrongs with the court, and preserved the integrity of the judge and opposing self-representing counsel in honorable discourse. He attained a very favorable decision from the court for me and represented me in a way that is honorable to me, himself, and the whole firm at Boyd Law. Joshua's quick thinking, patient persistence while in the presence of the court was impressive to watch. I believe his respect for the rule of law and others allows him to be aggressive in just the right areas to argue facts and not get sidelined by lesser matters. Consummate professional.

Boyd Law came through for us by assigning Joshua L. Fabian to our case. Joshua is a UCCJEA Virtuoso with a fantastic personality and the ability to get through to a difficult judge. We had a tri-state jurisdictional custody nightmare on our hands that involved original orders from in California from 2020, an open 2024 custody case in Father's state (home state), with Mother being another state entirely. When the California judge made what we felt was an erroneous emergency temporary order that caused substantial upheaval in the lives of our children, we reached out to multiple firms and attorneys who all wanted to put us off for weeks on top of charging us for a consultation fee. However, when I called Boyd Law, I reached Brandon (sp?) who patiently listened to our dilemma and put us through to the right team which included Matthew Caldwell, Joshua L. Fabian, and Ashley Hoffman, although Joshua was our Go-To A-Team guy. Not only did we not get charged a consultation fee, Joshua hit this case with great enthusiasm, ultimately coming through for us in exceptional fashion. His knowledge of UCCJEA is second to none. His pleasant and positive disposition immediately put us at ease. His commitment to meeting tight timelines was stellar. More importantly, his courtroom presentation was EPIC! If you have a case involving UCCJEA issues, Joshua is your man! He is not going to lie to you, he is not going to deceive you, he is not going to fill your head with nonsense. You'll get the truth and you'll get a lawyer who actually cares about your case. We know we were not his only case, but he sure made it feel like we were. I still think that he has some kind of Vibranium armor hiding under that suit or something, because he totally earned Super Hero Status. Money well spent.

I highly recommend Mariana Lotfy Hanna, a well-known and experienced immigration attorney in Southern California. She has represented thousands of clients with an impressive success rate. I first met her in her office in 2023, where she generously provided a two-hour consultation free of charge as part of her contribution to the community. At the time, I was seeking an immigration attorney for my brother. In 2024, when I needed an immigration attorney myself, I reached out to her again. She provided a 40-minute consultation without charging me. Her explanations were clear, and her advice felt like it came from an older sister. Mariana's humility and genuine care are evident in her work. To my Somali sisters and brothers in need of an immigration attorney, I highly recommend Mariana Lotfy Hanna. Please remember that constantly calling her office or cellphone can detract from her ability to focus on your case. Instead, email her with any updates or questions. This approach will allow her to review and prepare your case more efficiently.

My wife and I found Bob Weaver with a Google Search because we needed a lawyer to deal with a disreputable contractor that was trying to extort us for purported work he had done on investment real property we owned in San Diego. This legal work to stop this illegal activity was way beyond what we were expecting. He is good! Later, he helped us with our home search as our real estate broker and with the mortgage process. We have the highest regard for Bob and the services he offers to clients. Highly recommended.

When I first separated from my ex-wife 7 years ago, I made the mistake of retaining a novice attorney who succeeded in billing me over $5,000 in the first month simply for the pleasure of filing the divorce petition. It was clear that my faith had been misplaced. I quickly initiated a search for new counsel and found Mr. Garland quite by chance. That was probably the best find of my life. Mr. Garland is a top-notch attorney with almost as many years' experience as my former marriage had lasted. I found Mr. Garland to be very knowledgeable in family court matters. He billed fairly and accurately for his services. His countenance is the epitome of cool, calm, and collected both in front of a judge and in front of his client. I only wish that I had begun my divorce petition with Mr. Garland at the outset. Needless to say, he soon had things back on the right course. I firmly believe that his consultative approach and considered advice throughout were instrumental in resolving my case, including putting an end to all spousal support, in a much, much shorter time frame than could otherwise have been expected given that mine was a "marriage of long duration," not a phrase to be taken lightly in the state of California. Mr. Garland, I express to you my most sincere and heartfelt appreciation for all of your assistance in bringing this chapter of my life to a full and complete close. I now have an opportunity to move forward afresh and without encumbrance to write the next chapter. Thank you!

Mr. Reyzin represented us in a real estate matter. We were absolutely frustrated with our situation and did not know what to do. Mr. Reyzin was very knowledgeable and was able to explain to us what the issues were and how he could help us. When all of our efforts to resolve the situation informally failed, Mr. Reyzin was quick to file a lawsuit. He continued to aggressively prosecute our case until the other side finally agreed to our proposed resolution. While the process was long and, at times frustrating, we are very happy with the results. We are very thankful to our attorney and his staff for all the hard work they did working on our case.

I also had to retain Mr. Reyzin’s services to respond to frivolous claims filed against me. Mr. Reyzin was very firm and assertive with the other side that resulted in dismissal of all the claims. I recommend Mr. Reyzin to anyone who need help with their legal issues.

Our business was sued. We consulted a number of attorneys who demanded huge upfront fees without much explanation what awaited us. Some even told us that the only way out will be through bk. One of the business associates referred us to Mr. Reyzin as someone who helped him before. Mr. Reyzin was direct and forthcoming about the process and potential outcomes. There was no pressure, no scare tactics just a very informative consultation. After some deliberation we hired Reyzin Law Firm, and now that it is all over, we are certainly glad we did. It was a right decision both for us as individuals and for our business.

Imagine l went to ask his help with a ticket l got it after l forced to pass the traffic light to avoid an accident with the car that followed me closely in raining night in Mira Messa Boulevard. I explained what happened exactly and he promised to fix that WITHOUT PENALTY. Especially it's my first ticket, and l am driving with out any issue in last 20 years her in USA and Europe. His assistant took $99 as Attorney fee, and she promised they will contact me to give update with my case. After several visits to follow what happened to my case bec8l didn't hear anything from them as they promised!!!! l SURPRISED that the ticket fee increased than decreased! Imagine interested not decreased!!!! COULD YOU TELL ME WHY I HIRED HIM WHILE HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING AS HE PROMISED, l paid MUCH MORE than the ticket penalty. Moreover, l paid his fee without get anything!!! That's my experience with this BAD ATTORNEY. Thank you. Dr. Ammar Ali

This is the 2nd time my family has used Mr. Ticket for red light traffic violations which we believe we were not at fault! I received a red light violation in San Marcos in August 2018 and reached out to them right away. I explained my situation that I was unable to get out of the intersection before the light turned green as another car entered my lane. I provided other information needed. On Nov. 6, 2018 they were able to get my case dismissed! :-) From the 1st phone call to 2 follow up emails, their response time is fast and would hear from them within 24 hours. They are clear about what steps they will take to handle your case/trial. Their service is definitely worth it if you don't have the time to attend the court dates yourself. They are clear about what they can and cannot do, but will give their best to represent you. I appreciated every time they reached out to me with my questions.

King Aminpour is hands down the best car accident attorney I have ever dealt with. I have been in three car accidents in my life and have had to hire an attorney each time. Because of dealing with bad attorneys in the past, I thoroughly researched which attorney I would hire this time around. I looked online for recommendations and testimonials. I was very impressed with the feedback I saw on how other people had dealt with him. Let me tell you, I never felt uneasy. I was always communicated with. His staff was extra nice and accommodating. I am super thankful for finding King and I would recommend him to anyone I knew that got into an accident. In fact, I have. King Aminpour is trustworthy, kind and compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable. If you want great results, go see the King.

I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration regarding the lack of progress in obtaining a green card or travel document for me. As a 72-year-old with health concerns, I have been clear about the need for regular checkups in my home country. Despite your assurances, none of this has happened, and you have stopped responding to my emails. This situation has caused me immense stress and anxiety. I have had to visit the hospital multiple times without your support. Additionally, I was unable to be with my husband during his cancer treatment due to the lack of travel documents. As a result of your lies and promises, I now owe $60,000 to the hospital. I am at a loss for what to do and feel very let down. After a year and a half of waiting, the immigration department finally approved my case on July 24. Ten days later, they mailed my green card to you. It has now been two months, and you have not contacted me to inform me that you have received it. I recently found out from the immigration department that you have, in fact, received my green card. They provided me with a tracking number that confirms this. When I came to pick it up, you lied and said you did not have it. I am very disappointed with your lack of communication and honesty.

I didn’t even hesitate to hire her services. The entire process was very smooth. She did an incredible job and 3 or 4 weeks later my case was approved! Thank you so much Rayana!

No face to face meetings ever occurred, which might have been helpful. Failed to give us a good understanding of alternatives, such as options for getting documents notarized and instructions on how to transfer the house into the trust. Failed to provide accurate information, her supervisor had to intervene to correct. We really had to comb through the documents because there were many factual errors and typos. Overall did not provide the guidance and handholding we felt like we needed since we were novices to the process.

Deborah is an amazing lawyer that we've had the pleasure of hiring. She is thorough in her research & explanation given the complexity and niche character of our industry (software visualization & material exploration). She is insightful and provides detailed explanation of the cases/procedures at various levels which is needed given our non legal background. We covered trademarks mostly. Most importantly she is a good person and will guide you through the thorny processes in the legal world with minimal to no scratches. Normally people don't like lawyers, we love Deborah! we continue to work with her and would highly recommend her.

My husband and I wanted to reach out to you for helping us with a difficult situation. We constantly ran into road blocks until we reached you. We were extremely frustrated that no one was taking our position seriously until you. You made us feel like this situation was no different than a million dollar case. We had both traveled 1/2 way around the country (Michael twice) and excited about being near our son and grandchildren. We were blind sighted by an unhealthy home. We didn't know where to turn. You came along and with your persistence and perseverance we were able to resolve the situation. We cannot thank you enough for everything you have done. You Deborah go above and beyond. Michael and I are now able to move on with our lives and enjoy our children and our grandchildren. Should we need Legal services in the future you will be hearing from us. Once again Deborah Thank You.

The attorneys at Boyd Law did a fantastic job for me. I had an emergent case that required a response to be filed with the court within one business day. Staff at Boyd Law agreed to hear the facts of my case as I knew them to be, quoted me a reasonable fee for services (to which I agreed), and immediately addressed the necessary matters of my case. While my matter had significant material already available for the staff, Joshua Fabian did a masterful job arguing for me in person before a difficult judge. Joshua presented the facts clearly, addressed wrongs with the court, and preserved the integrity of the judge and opposing self-representing counsel in honorable discourse. He attained a very favorable decision from the court for me and represented me in a way that is honorable to me, himself, and the whole firm at Boyd Law. Joshua's quick thinking, patient persistence while in the presence of the court was impressive to watch. I believe his respect for the rule of law and others allows him to be aggressive in just the right areas to argue facts and not get sidelined by lesser matters. Consummate professional.

Boyd Law came through for us by assigning Joshua L. Fabian to our case. Joshua is a UCCJEA Virtuoso with a fantastic personality and the ability to get through to a difficult judge. We had a tri-state jurisdictional custody nightmare on our hands that involved original orders from in California from 2020, an open 2024 custody case in Father's state (home state), with Mother being another state entirely. When the California judge made what we felt was an erroneous emergency temporary order that caused substantial upheaval in the lives of our children, we reached out to multiple firms and attorneys who all wanted to put us off for weeks on top of charging us for a consultation fee. However, when I called Boyd Law, I reached Brandon (sp?) who patiently listened to our dilemma and put us through to the right team which included Matthew Caldwell, Joshua L. Fabian, and Ashley Hoffman, although Joshua was our Go-To A-Team guy. Not only did we not get charged a consultation fee, Joshua hit this case with great enthusiasm, ultimately coming through for us in exceptional fashion. His knowledge of UCCJEA is second to none. His pleasant and positive disposition immediately put us at ease. His commitment to meeting tight timelines was stellar. More importantly, his courtroom presentation was EPIC! If you have a case involving UCCJEA issues, Joshua is your man! He is not going to lie to you, he is not going to deceive you, he is not going to fill your head with nonsense. You'll get the truth and you'll get a lawyer who actually cares about your case. We know we were not his only case, but he sure made it feel like we were. I still think that he has some kind of Vibranium armor hiding under that suit or something, because he totally earned Super Hero Status. Money well spent.

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.
