I had three attorneys before I hired Edward, and he blew everyone away. He is confident, fair, reassuring, and dedicated. He is the managing partner at his firm for a reason. He was able to see things other attorneys were not able to see in my case, he's very insightful. Fight On, USC and Edward!!!

Fakhimi & Associates has been there to help me fight a good fight a couple of times now. I'm a blue collar plumber and work hard for what I have to offer my house. You put heart and soul into a company, you hope that the hard work and dedicated you put into your craft, they would reward you for what you do for the company.... they take advantage of you and your time. Time away from your family, holiday functions, and just life. Recently my old employer did just that... I decided to fight and this office helped me. They helped me get back what my family was owed. Houman Fakhimi himself personally made sure my house wasn't robbed. This is going to be a good if not the best, Christmas my home has ever seen. I can't thank Fakhimi & Associates enough, thank you Houman! Best wishes for the upcoming holidays for your office and it's families!

I had the pleasure of working with Michael Ayaz on a recent matter. He was representing us in connection with an appeal from a neighbor. I found him to be an excellent subject matter expert. He provided clear guidance. He was a thorough communicator. I've had different attorneys represent me for different business matters and so I think he would be a good representative for an experienced client. His thoroughness with communication also causes me to think he would be a good attorney for a less experienced client who might be dealing with a complex or serious legal matter for the first time. Overall, excellent experience and good value.

Mike Ayaz of Blake and Ayaz is the lawyer you want in your corner. He represented me in a case brought on by ABC. It was already in a default judgment against me because ABC never properly notified me that there was a case against my establishment. Mike was able to get the default judgment thrown out and allowed me to start anew. The outcome was more than expected. I like that he did not sugarcoat anything. He was honest about my chances and the possible outcome from the beginning. Oh, and he took my call from day one. The other law firm took my name and said they would call back the following week. Mike always returns your phone calls and makes you feel like you're never alone and that you have the best lawyer representing you. He is a bull dog and that's what you need when dealing with ABC. I will also add that he took the time to know my wife and I personally and that he listens. I will forever be grateful for that. Lastly I will say that I so admire his quality of work that I have hired him for more legal work. Thank you Mike! 🍻

Anthony settled a case for me in December of 2015 from an unfortunate accident in a retail store and a fair settlement was had. I had been going through a very difficult time in my life for many reasons involving many issues and I am ashamed to admit now I was not an easy client and Anthony could have let me go a few times but his understanding to my personal issues and Anthony having compassion for others was able to get me through the process as we had some difficult issues in my case at times which proved frustrating for both of us but Anthony was professional on all accounts. I highly recommend Anthony if you want A WORLD CLASS ATTORNEY who works hard on your behalf then Anthony Nunes is the man for you to get the job well done under any circumstances and is very well up to date and educated within all areas of the law. Best Regards

Anthony is AMAZING!!!!!! From the start to the end he was professional, understanding, had a great positive attitude, and honestly most of all, he truly made me feel at ease the whole time. He always answered my calls and if he couldn't he always called back as soon as he was available. He was able to get my case dismissed. Honestly he is the best. THANK YOU Anthony. I can sleep calm now thanks too you. Sincerely Mayra

I first met Maryam in 2013 while she worked diligently on a criminal case for my husband. She had truly been a Godsend to my family. Maryam went above and beyond to thoroughly represent my husband, she went as far as to obtain her notary license so that she could notarized an important document while my husband was incarcerated at MDC, LA. I could call on her and Maryam would be available. It gave me great peace of mind knowing that she was an attorney that actually cared about her clients. Maryam was honest with me and did not sugar-coat the severity of my husbands case. I felt safe and connected to her for her honesty. Tragically, my husband passed away in custody. I had not spoken to Maryam in well over a year (we ended up going with a public defender). I received a very heartfelt text from Maryam giving me her condolences and telling me how much she knew I loved my husband.
A year and half later in 2016, I hired her to represent my minor daughter for a DUI. Again, I cannot tell how much she went above and beyond to represent thoroughly for my family. She works hard, she's honest and she has a heart that truly wants to help her clients and represent them in the best possible way. Maryam took the time to sit and meet with my daughter and offered her ear and help even beyond the court room. My daughter received probation and Maryam did her homework and was able to save me thousands ($25+K) of dollars in a falsified restitution claim. I could never thank Maryam enough for all that she has done for me and my family. My daughter is now off of probation thanks for Maryam. She is on a much better path and is expecting.
I will say that I did not trust attorneys before. Maryam is an attorney that I literally trust with my life. She took the utmost care of my late husband and my daughter. She is very dear to my heart and I love her!
THANK YOU MARYAM FOR EVERYTHING!
Respectfully,
Ursula

I had found Maryam Sharifi through a common aquantance and I will say I was very lucky to have been able to find a way to her. I had received a DUI charge that was pending as a felony and she did everything she could to save me jail time and bring it down to a misdemeanor. She had spoken with me dad and many occasions and went out of her way to keep him informed as well and she really got to know us had a genuine concern for my well being. She found a traffic school for me and made sure I kept up with any and all court assigned classes to make sure I got out of this okay. For a very long time I had a huge worry of going to jail and having to drop out of school and all that come with that; and Maryam has helped physically as well as mentally with all of that and I couldn't thank her enough. I highly recommend Maryam Sharifi if you have any kind of issues like I did.

Mr. Anderson was simply stellar. I had a justified but very challenging Lemon Law case - which scared away most of the other lemon lawyers I spoke with. Thankfully, one of those lawyers referred me to Anderson Law. I guess he has a reputation in the field for being able to win difficult cases. He definitely succeeded where most others were too afraid to even try.
I would describe Mr. Anderson as thorough, precise, highly experienced, knowledgeable, articulate, intentional, intelligent, friendly, and very effective. I took great comfort in knowing that my case was being handled by someone whose expertise is off the charts. It is clear from working with him that his amazing track record is because he is that good, and not because he only takes the easy cases. I hope that I never get another lemon. But if I do, he will be my first phone call.

I would’ve give this firm a Zero Stars, but I can’t. Unfortunately, users are required to give at least one star to post a response. Lawyer stated that I had a case, but couldn’t take the case. Therefore, find a reputable lawyer that will take the case and fight for your rights. This attorney will not .

The title says it it all. Within minutes of speaking with Michelle, I knew I found the right lawyer.

I sought guidance on how to proceed on my own behalf. Ms. Reynolds understood how much time would be needed to advise me and sent a list of documents I needed to provide in advance of our 1.5 hour consultation. She was on-time, thoroughly prepared and knowledgeable on every aspect of the situation. She asked clear, precise questions to be sure I communicated everything necessary for her to formulate her advice, which was specific and explained in detail. I am now awaiting responses to the communications I sent out to see how the situation resolves. I am hopeful of the outcome.

I have started the process of up dating our trust several times. Every attorney that we have used made the process extremely complicated and time consuming. Not Lynn Girvin! She explained everything in simple terms, made excellent suggestions and basically held our hand step by step. It was so easy and painless. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lynn Girvin for any and all law services that she provides.

Mr. Nabi is an attorney that operates with integrity, compassion, and diligence. My husband and I retained another lawyer who we later found out was involved in accusations of fraud and was suspended. Mr. Nabi took our case as a collegial favor to the first lawyer, and did not charge us for his service. We were suspiciously cautious, but the only other choice we had was to shell out another $2500.00! After we began to work with Mr. Nabi, it became obvious that he was truly committed to helping us resolve our bankruptcy issue. He discovered an error in the calculation of our actual eligibility for a bankruptcy and began to help us understand why we would have to wait to file. He helped us figure out where to complete the online classes that are required, and prepared us for the next steps in the process. Once all the paperwork was re-typed and submitted, Mr. Nabi communicated with us regularly and attended the meeting of creditors with us. Ultimately, as he had assured us, we were able to get the debts discharged and start fresh. Almost a year after the bankruptcy, I received a notice from a creditor that claimed I was party to a debt with my daughter. I contacted Mr. Nabi and he handled the situation by contacting the creditor. Within two days, my name was removed and I received a release from the creditor acknowledging their error, even though I had tried to tell them that! My daughter’s case had been filed over a year before we met him by another attorney, yet Mr. Nabi was graciously willing to answer my questions about what she could do two years after discharge. He offered some suggestions and she has moved forward as well. Mr. Nabi has my highest recommendation as a bankruptcy attorney. He will certainly go the distance to help you through this difficult time in your life journey.

I can spare you some search time. Pick up the phone and call Jeff(rey) in the next five minutes and you'll better understand my feedback below for yourself;
We utilized Jeff for services regarding a very important family matter where trust, integrity, and sage counsel were our top priorities, and Jeff did not disappoint. He made sure to work with our schedule, made sure to follow up with us when we lost track of things, and he was always available to help reassure us in any doubts or concerns as they arose. He is patient, a true professional, and his working knowledge of the law makes us call him Jeffpedia! A natural curious mind coupled with an authentic demeanor made us look no further. We will continue to look to Jeff for future counsel and recommend him to all our friends and family.
My wife and I strongly recommend Jeff for any applicable legal counsel.

Matt worked with us to on-board a seasoned executive to our software team. Our contractor agreement templates were too aggressive and scaring away experienced prospects.

Richard Thomas Collins is representing me in a wrongful termination/whistleblower case. We lost our case in federal court. Rich is my hero and will continue to be even if the appellate court denies our appeal for a new trial. I'd recommend him and his team at Berger Kahn to anyone.

We shopped around and spoke with 6 other attorneys before finding Richard Thomas Collins. We knew he was "the one" when he took time to listen to every aspect of our case and even advised us for awhile, before we officially hired him. And then when we did sign on with him, he tried to be reasonable about the fee and not charge more than necessary. His attitude was to see how things go and maybe he wouldn't need to charge more.
Other attorneys wouldn't even talk beyond 10 minutes or so without demanding a retainer fee.
Richard Collins remained realistic and careful not to promise positive results that might not happen, but at the same time, he was thorough and quoted actual penal codes that pertained to our case. He did his homework and made sure the details were correct. The letters he wrote on our behalf were so outstanding and accurate that it helped us get through rough days and cheered us up to read them!
It appears that the outcome of the case is exactly what we had hoped for, and we attribute that result to Richard Collins' expertise and knowledge, for our type of case.
He was completely professional yet sensitive to what we were going through as real people with feelings.
His manner is so pleasant and reassuring.
He was always good to return calls and kept us informed.
Having worked with other attorneys on other unrelated issues in the past, we wish we had known about him sooner!

As an immigration lawyer I do not handle criminal cases, so when one of my clients got arrested in Orange County, California I needed to help my client to find the very best criminal defense attorney.
I reached out to the people I trust in the area and they recommended Attorney Thomas. Scott Thomas is a force to be reckoned with, shortly after my client hired him, the case was dismissed!!
In other words, the best possible results! I strongly recommend this lawyer to my fellow attorneys as well as anyone in Southern California looking for a lawyer that gets results.
I have been practicing law for about 10 years so it is difficult to impress me but the Law Office of Scott C. Thomas gets a 10/10 and I will definitely be recommending them to all my California clients!!

I had an issue with my Landlord over a pipe burst in my apartment while I was away for work. They didn't clean it correctly and my belonging sat in water for a week causing damage to prized possessions. The problem persisted and mold spread. Thanks to Gerald I was compensated for my damaged items, as well as relocated while they properly fixed the pipes and mold situation. I would have lost everything if it weren't for the help of Wolf Law Firm.

As a new CFO with an alcoholic business partner, I sought legal protection for myself and the company. An attorney recommended the drafting of a shareholders agreement. Not specializing in them herself, she referred me to Kurtis Urien.
Without knowing anything about shareholders agreements, I was hesitant to approach the subject at first. However, Kurtis soon put me right at ease. All of my questions/requests were answered in a polite and timely manner, whether by phone or email. Additionally, Mr. Urien made the legal jargon simple to understand and offered helpful explanations/advice whenever asked.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I'm extremely pleased with the results. I encourage anyone in a business partnership to hire Kurtis Urien. His top-notch service provided me with peace of mind and a greater appreciation for the legal system.

Le Pelletier...oh how I love their style of things. I believe they are Psychologists with a suitcase and a powersuit. Like their powersuit, everything they do is custom-tailored and form fitting to the client's emotional spec along with his/her long term sense of safety. Le Pelletier is a safe place...or safehouse. They are your advocates.
Just think for a moment. Society is like a playground, you are being legally picked on. Le Pelletier is that older kid that comes and defends you and backs you up.
Joseph Le Runs the Santa Ana office and is a very helpful person and took initiative to send help my way when I didn't ask. I like that kind gesture a great deal. I had an issue where I called his office for help. He sent his partner, Erin Pelletier, in since she's more local. On day of, he surprised me by showing up. He drove over 400miles just to support the case. Joseph Le is like a superhero or a good older brother I've always wish I had.
