Boris was a great lawyer and it was my first time in life to deal with legal matters. Boris was communicative and kept me up to date.

Michael Geller is masterful in his abilities, skills, and talents at family law and mediation. I have had a very difficult MSA for over the last 15 years due to lack of good representation in the past. I found Michael’s law firm recently as I approached retirement; and he immediately recognized my past concerns and a path forward. He quickly strategized a way forward that I would have never seen possible. He delved into all the details of my past MSA to a level much greater than the other party and their legal counsel. His expertise was evident in his anticipation of ideas from the other party - and I found this to be amazing as events unfolded. As complex as my situation was, he moved quickly through all legal avenues which resulted in resolution before a trial. I must also say he was fully prepared to file a motion which I think helped bring the other party into reality. Michael has brought so much value into my future with his decisions, and I recommend him highly. You will succeed with his help and expertise.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael during a challenging and emotionally charged time in my life. From our first consultation, he impressed me with his professionalism, empathy, and deep understanding of family law.
Michael took the time to listen to my concerns and provided clear, practical advice on how to proceed. He explained the legal process in a way that was easy to understand and ensured I was always informed about the status of my case. His communication skills are excellent; I never felt in the dark about any developments.
He fought tirelessly to protect my interests and achieve a fair outcome while also showing genuine care for my well-being. This combination of strength and empathy made a difficult process much more manageable.
Michael demonstrated exceptional legal expertise and strategic thinking. His attention to detail and thorough preparation for each stage of the case were evident and greatly contributed to the favorable outcome I received. I always felt confident, he was always responsive, organized, and respectful. Any questions or concerns I had were promptly addressed, and I felt supported every step of the way.
I highly recommend Michael to anyone. Thank you Michael for your invaluable assistance and unwavering support.

My wife and I highly recommend Mark T. Blake for his superlative legal services and professionalism in handling our recent trust documents. Mark is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He is also detail oriented and showed plenty of patience and expertise when clarification was needed, especially when we were undecided and had questions about certain items in the estate planning process. Mark "raises the bar" for all lawyers, providing great quality legal services expeditiously with continuity of care. Mark, thanks again!

I had a really solid experience with Givelle. While she did not provide legal assistance to me, (I was seeking to file suit and she’s a defense attorney), she heard me out and graciously shared what she knows to be next-steps in these types of matters. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone seeking a defense attorney because she exudes confidence and speaks with clarity and purpose.

Divorce is anything but a walk in the park, but through the distress, anxiety, and uncertainty around the process, Katie Fox, and her team at Fox & Bank, have done a phenomenal job in allaying any concerns or fears that I had, and helped run mediations between myself and my ex-spouse in a comfortable, fairly low-stress, and overall effective manner. Katie Fox is a consummate professional, and understands fully, the nuances around divorce, and the toll it can take on both partners, and their families. I felt heard and understood, and for that, I am extremely appreciative and grateful of her.

I used Mr. Arietta’s Law Office for a Will and Living Trust. Its something I put off for years. I should have reached out earlier because David and his assistant Megan did a great job. Efficient. Good at keeping in touch on next steps. The fee was reasonable too (I compared elsewhere). Seems like the process went pretty quick. I never need an attorney, but if I do again, I’ll probably come here first.

Lifesaver in the Legal Maze: A Review for Candelaria PC Law Office in Walnut Creek, CA
For years, I had been locked in a relentless battle with my divorce, struggling to find a way out of the turmoil that had consumed me since 2019. My ex was uncooperative, the financial strain was overwhelming, and the emotional toll was staggering. Then, amidst the chaos, I found Candelaria PC and met Attorney Alice P. Cheng.
From the outset, it was clear that they understood the gravity of my situation. Despite my financial hardships, they welcomed me with empathy and support, ensuring that money would not stand in the way of my freedom. Their understanding and assistance with my financial problems were a beacon of hope in my darkest days.
But it was their unwavering dedication to my case that truly set them apart. Taking over all actions on my behalf, they shielded me from the constant strife of dealing with my ex directly. Their adept handling of the legal proceedings meant that I no longer had to endure the agony of court dates, sparing me further anguish.
Even though I lived in a different state, Attorney Cheng and Candelaria PC remained steadfast in their commitment to my case. Despite the logistical challenges, they navigated the complexities of divorce proceedings in California with ease, ensuring that distance was never a barrier to justice.
Beneath their expert guidance, the seemingly endless ordeal finally came to an end. In just a few months, they achieved what I had struggled to accomplish on my own: a successful divorce. As the new year approached, I found myself liberated from the chains that had bound me for so long.
To say that I am grateful, happy, and blessed feels like an understatement. Attorney Cheng and Candelaria PC not only provided me with legal expertise but also with compassion and support during one of the darkest periods of my life. Their dedication and perseverance were a beacon of hope in my darkest days.
If you find yourself battling a divorce, I wholeheartedly recommend Candelaria PC Law Office. They are not just lawyers; they are champions of justice and guardians of hope. With them by your side, you can navigate even the most daunting legal challenges with confidence and dignity.

Hands down the best thing that ever happened to me, was having Candelaria Law represent me.
Especially Mariam & Alice. They are truly amazing at what they do! They care about their clients. Mariam worked hard on my case & represented me in a way I couldn’t, she always made sure to get every last detail & was very thorough. If I had any questions Mariam made sure give me an answer & if she wasn’t sure, she would ask Alice & I don’t think there was anything Alice couldn’t answer. Danya, she always had things uploaded online, made sure to touch bases with me to tell me when my court appearances were & if there was something they needed on my end!
They are phenomenal team, extremely responsive (they don’t leave you in the dark) & they FIGHT for their clients!
They are the reason I have full legal & physical custody after a year long battle alone, it took them2 months to get my baby back!! I wouldn’t choose another team to handle my legal battles! I would choose them over & over again!!
Thank you Mariam, Alice & Danya you helped me get my missing piece !! I forever owe you thanks and have gratitude 🤍🫶🏼

I’d strongly suggest that you take your business somewhere else when I called on August 20 the lady was very rude and did not inform me or help me at all on how the process works with working with an attorney. This creates a very bad reputation for this business and they have, no professionalism whatsoever strongly suggest that you work with a different attorney regarding your real estate legal issues .

We moved from New York to California last year and have been looking for an Estate planning attorney to update our plan. We interviewed a few, and finally met Ms. Joan Grimes through a recommendation. She is highly intelligent, can sift through huge documents at great speed and can quickly identify key points. We were struck by her efficiency, energy, and capacity to get to the heart of the matter and prescribe practical solutions. She is very current with the law, and makes suggestions in the context of potential changes in estate laws. Moreover, she is warm and caring. Another interesting side of Joan is that she is the go-to person for specialists, doctors, bakeries, bistros - Google in human form! It has been such a pleasure to meet her and more importantly, to do business with her.
