John and Owais are the people you want helping you with your case! We had a tricky situation with the I-751 and N-400 during Covid shut down and they helped us through every step of the way. I’m originally from Japan and our case should have been an easy one but with shut down, things got messy and lost. Long story short, John and Owais were able to help us though the process with ease. They are very prompt with responses, quick to see the progress of the case (making sure everything was up to speed and within expected time frame), and were thorough with prep work and paperwork. Both of us speak perfect native English and we still had a lot of trouble figuring out the paperwork. Even if you’re unsure or really need the support, I would suggest looking into this firm since USCIS paperwork/processes are a real hassle if mistakes are made.

I am an attorney myself. For many years, I've referred business owners to Carbon Law Group. The feedback has always been excellent Pankaj and his team are experts, as well as super responsive. Pankaj has also advised me on personal matters, and has been a great resource. If you need help with corporate matters, Carbon Law Group is excellent!

As a client of Susan Huerta’s for 1-2 years I must say that she is an amazing, thorough and caring attorney. Just be sure to be patient and understand that she is working within the timelines the case requires. I personally worked with the company president for Employee Justice Los Angeles and Susan together on a case though Susan handled most on the day to day work in my case. I was very satisfied with my case outcome. Susan Huerta is a great attorney for both employee and civil rights matters. Susan has a heart and cares, so trust in her and give her the info she needs to do a good job for you.

Attorney Raval gave a very informative talk to our entrepreneurial training class on legal issues we would be dealing with as business owners.

All I can say is WOW! Chris is AMAZING! Right from the start, I knew I was in good hands. After being charged with a felony and facing jail time, Chris was able to reduce the charge to a misdemeanor with some community service. During what seemed to be the darkest time in my life, Chris was always there to guide and support me. I feel blessed to have found Chris and would recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you Chris!

I had an excellent experience working with Chris as my lawyer. We successfully got the cases dismissed, and throughout the process, Chris was incredibly real and straightforward. It was a stressful situation, but he and his team took a lot of that stress off my shoulders, which made a huge difference for me. I couldn't have asked for better support, and I'm so grateful for the outcome and the professionalism Chris provided.

He shows compassion for his clients and I’m grateful that he is my lawyer.

When doing a bankruptcy like this it may
typically take longer than one thinks if you
didn't read up on the process..., months !
Also a successful bankruptcy petition isn't a " gimme".
Be aware you will need LOTS of patience as most everything is done online at Sternberg Law.
My advice is learn how to scan & create files onto a flash drive properly.
That can be learned on a STAPLES copy machine.
The ZOOM interview with the State of Calif is NOT "optional". This isn't a " hire and toss the situation" to your Attorney like a red light
traffic ticket.
Download the ZOOM App and practice a two way conversation with someone prior
to your ONLINE camera appearance date with the Bankruptcy Court of The State of California.
BE available, online, and ready to talk.
Sternberg Law was very patient and Professional throughout my entire successful bankruptcy process.
I would wholeheartedly recommend them.
Thanks !

The attorney Joseph Land is very knowledgeable and took the time to listen to my concerns regarding my situation. He answered my questions clearly and there was no pressure to retain his services because he wanted to make sure that I truly understand my options in the legal process. You can tell that they truly care about their clients. It's rare to find someone who cares about their clients and shows the genuine empathy and commitment to their clients. He answered all my questions thoroughly during the consultation and made sure I left with a clear understanding of the next steps. If you're in need of a family law attorney, I highly recommend reaching out to Land Legal Group.

This attorney initially has an office assistant who gets all your vital information such as email and how you heard about the attorney and other self serving questions then after he’s gotten all your information, he ask questions about your case but is dismissive and cuts you off because he never taken you serious or care about the reason your calling for because he then goes to hype drive and will not forward your case to any attorney, instead he refers you to your inbox and informs there you will have 3 options plans for a PAID CONSULTATION. If that is the firms intention, why not freely advertise as such versus bait switch on pretense of PAID consultation and apparently 3 different price points.

I hired the firm to represent my husband who was facing attempted murder, before hiring them I called many law firms and they wouldn’t take the case or the price was extremely high with no hopes.
Sergio and Ed were amazing they were able to reduce charges with minimal time sentence.
Thank you for bringing happiness back to my family.

I have not used this law group. I am simply reviewing the article. It was interesting and I like that It had a balanced approach, including quotes from veterinarians and behavior training tests. My only complaint is the entire article starts off listing a Doberman among the top 46. And then when you look at every other statistic in the entire article, Dobermans are not listed once. It’s too bad that the first sentence does not represent the entire article. Otherwise, it was extremely enlightening, and I wish more people understood the relationship between dog bite, breeds, and the people who own them. Well done.

I was parked at the 99 Cent store when another car backed into mine and drove off. It was a hit-and-run, but I had uninsured motorist coverage and filed a police report. Beverly Law made the whole process so much easier for me. My case manager Guillermo handled everything professionally and kept me updated throughout never missing a phone or text from me. I'm grateful for his support and expertise during this difficult time! Best case manager at the firm couldn’t have asked for a better settlement. Highly recommend you go to Beverly Law and you ask for Guillermo if you want the highest settlement possible.

I was a passenger in my friend’s car when things took a turn for the worse—my friend was driving under the influence and lost control of the vehicle, crashing into a concrete barricade. It was a terrifying experience, and I wasn’t sure what to do next. Thankfully, Michael Shemtoub and his team stepped in and handled my case with incredible care and expertise. Olynda, in particular, was fantastic—her support and dedication made a huge difference. She guided me through every step, ensuring I understood the process, and always kept me informed. Their combined efforts helped secure the best possible outcome, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the way they managed everything during such a difficult time

Questions? We have answers
What a Civil Rights Lawyer Can Do for You
A civil rights lawyer focuses on protecting individuals whose constitutional rights have been violated by government authorities, employers, or private organizations. These lawyers specialize in cases involving discrimination, police misconduct, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution and civil rights laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Housing Act.
Whether you've been discriminated against due to race, gender, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics, or you believe your civil rights have been violated by a government entity, a civil rights lawyer can help you seek justice, hold wrongdoers accountable, and secure compensation for any harm you've suffered.
When Should I Hire a Civil Rights Lawyer?
You should hire a civil rights lawyer when your constitutional rights or other protected rights have been violated, and you need legal assistance to seek justice. Some key situations in which you may need a civil rights lawyer include:
- Employment discrimination: If you have faced discrimination at work based on race, gender, age, religion, national origin, or disability, a civil rights lawyer can help you file claims under laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
- Police misconduct or brutality: If you were the victim of police brutality, unlawful arrest, racial profiling, or other forms of misconduct, a lawyer can help you file a lawsuit for violations of your Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.
- Freedom of speech or assembly violations: If your First Amendment rights to free speech or peaceful assembly have been restricted by the government, a civil rights lawyer can represent you in challenging the violation.

What Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Do?
A civil rights lawyer provides legal representation and advocacy to individuals whose rights have been violated. Their work can include:
- Filing lawsuits: A civil rights lawyer can represent you in court by filing lawsuits against individuals, businesses, or government entities that violated your rights.
- Advocating for policy changes: Civil rights lawyers often engage in advocacy work, pushing for reforms to laws and policies that infringe upon people's rights.
- Representing clients in discrimination claims: These lawyers help clients file claims with federal or state agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
- Negotiating settlements: In many cases, civil rights lawyers work to negotiate settlements for their clients before a case goes to trial, securing compensation for damages such as lost wages, emotional distress, or legal fees.
- Defending freedom of expression: Lawyers may represent clients whose rights to free speech, assembly, or protest were violated by government restrictions or other actions.
- Handling appeals: If your civil rights case has been decided but you wish to appeal the ruling, a civil rights lawyer can help you through the appeals process.

Civil rights lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work involved. Common payment structures include:

- Flat fee: In specific cases, a lawyer may charge a flat fee for services like drafting legal documents or filing a complaint.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.

Top Questions to Ask a Civil Rights Lawyer
Before hiring a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with civil rights cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s employment discrimination, police misconduct, or First Amendment violations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is the likelihood of success for my case?
Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your case, including the strengths, weaknesses, and potential outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While exact timelines can vary, ask for an estimate of how long your case may take, from filing to resolution. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may work on parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will handle your legal matter directly.
How to Check the Credibility of a Civil Rights Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable civil rights lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific civil rights experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in civil rights law and have a history of handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience with civil rights cases.
- Check for advocacy or nonprofit work: Lawyers involved with civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU or NAACP Legal Defense Fund, may have a strong reputation in the civil rights legal community.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed account of the violation: Provide a written summary of the events, including dates, times, and any people involved in the violation of your rights.
- Documentation and evidence: Bring any supporting documentation, such as emails, letters, photos, or video footage that may help prove the violation of your rights.
- Records of complaints or reports: If you’ve filed complaints with a government agency or reported the violation, bring copies of those documents.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes of your case.
- Information on damages or harm: Be prepared to discuss the harm you’ve suffered due to the violation, such as emotional distress, financial loss, or physical injury.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
