By far the BEST lawyer there is. I found Kristy on the internet and her Avvo rating really doesn't do her any justice. If it were up to real quality of service and knowledge she should be rated a full 10/10 and here's why:
1. She was very professional and punctual.
2. She's extremely knowledgeable. I researched everything about my issue inside out so I know the law pretty well. I asked her couple of trick questions to see if she'd know the answer and she nailed it all the way.
3. I found a book that she helped to write about constitutional law and Avvo didn't even pick it up.
4. Between 2 DUIs (not proud but hey it happened), divorce and a bunch of corporate stuff I've dealt with many lawyers in my life. Kristy is by far the best.
5. I've read from her many reviews elsewhere that people wished all lawyers were like her. And I now do as well.
Hire Kristy, you won't regret it.

Kristy (or Mengyun) is the best lawyer I've ever had! I feel very ashamed of saying this, but I have delt with at least 10 lawyers in my life, from DWI, divorce, personal injury, inheritance dispute, to immigration matters. Therefore I've become very cautious in hiring lawyers. After interviewing a bunch of lawyers Kristy was the one for me. And she didn't let me down. She was professional, respectful and responsive from the very first call. She kept me informed the whole way during my case and she always always answered my emails and phone calls and text messages within hours and I got very favorable results! The best I could hope for! I'm a very happy client and I will refer Kristy to anyone I know without hesitation!

Ms. Q is the best lawyer every. She truly cares about her clients, she helped my entire family. I first found her in 2010 when my mother was in need of legal advice. After my mother, she helped my aunt, my uncle, my cousins, and my grandmother. Eventually I got myself in some trouble too and I had to go to Ms. Q as well. She is very knowledgeable, respectful, friendly, timely and got us the best results we could hope for. My entire family loves her. I'm not exagerating when I say that she's now the go to lawyer for my entire family and we wouldn't trust anyone else.

I had an excellent experience and in the end I received exactly what I requested! I felt they understood me and what I was trying to accomplish...they listen when I may have been a bit frustrated and just needed to vent and tell someone my story. I would highly recomment Schilling & Silvers. Jill

I highly recommend Daniel Hernandez (Danny). After a frustrating battle with my house insurance company, my public adjuster reached out to him for help. From our first consultation, I felt confident in his expertise and professionalism.
Danny took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and crafted a solid strategy that led to a favorable outcome. Danny was not afraid to push forward even if litigation was needed. Danny communicated with me every step of the way, ensuring I was informed and comfortable with the process.
Thanks to his hard work, the insurance company settled and I received the compensation I deserved. If you’re facing challenges with your insurance company, do yourself a favor and have him represent your case.

Michael was very good at helping us to navigate the complexities of buying a new home. He helped us to identify potential risks, and to make informed decisions. You do need your own lawyer in dealing with a builder, even a established builder with good reputation. Builder contracts tend to be written to favor them not you, and you do not want to overlook things that might become future surprises.

My boyfriend was found NOT GUILTY by a jury. Mr. Roth did a great job at the trial, even though he was found to possessing heroin inside of his shoe while visiting a friend in jail. Mr. Roth got the jury to return not guilty verdict after only 20 minutes of deliberation. He was the only attorney that did not press us to take a plea. He fought and he won!!! Thank You Marty!! He treated us with respect and always returned all of our calls. He was always available at any time, even just to put my mind at ease.

This attorney has no clue I am writing this review, maybe he will see it at some point. If you are seeking an attorney in his field, you absolutely cannot go wrong with this guy!!! I can guarantee you he will be the type of attorney who will put his all into your case and I say that with 100% certainty.
Today walking to go into the courthouse feeling scared, stupid, anxious, stressed and clueless. I was going to file a motion on what seemed to be a simple case but turned out to be extremely complicated.
I decided to stop at this law firm and that’s where I met an angel on earth.
As I explained my case, he listened well; he is very knowledgeable and whatever he didn’t know or wasn’t sure about, he took the time to research online and in law books. He explained everything to me impeccably well; I felt like I was talking to a very nice judge. He sat with me for about 90 mins in his office, just selflessly and professionally helped me.
The care and the concern that he put into helping me is beyond my expectation of a consult.
I just had a terrible experience with a previous attorney & after speaking to over 10 attorneys last week, I was blessed with exactly the kind of help I got from him today.
I don’t know if he even understands how he affected my life today. I don’t think he knows how much stress he alleviated by taking time out of his day to help me.
Thank you for your compassion and kindness, sir. You have restored my faith in humanity(and attorneys). I cannot say enough about my experience with this attorney, this human. God Bless You and I am forever grateful.

Attorney Cynthia Lauriston took the time to educate me and made sure I understood the proceedings of my case. We met several times to strategize and she was always professional, informative and patient. She provided me with several ways of communicating with her and my calls/emails were always acknowledged in a timely manner. I was so pleased with her service that I've referred several clients to her and they've also shared my sentiments on her outstanding understanding of law and exceptional professionalism.

I sought the services of Cynthia as a consultant to my family law case. She took the time to listen and clarify my questions instead of automatically assuming my needs and rushing me as I have experienced with other attorneys in the past. I know the laws regarding my situation rather well. Cynthia was kind enough to refine that knowledge while offering a new level of insight and strategy

I definitely recommend Scott and the associated firm for any immigration related issues or processes. I've retained him for several visas including TN and H1B since 2017 and was able to attain all documents as he explained the process in detail regarding each specific visa. Scott presents with highly professional behavior towards his clients as he is always available via email and regardless the content of inquiry, you will always get a response within 30 mins to 1 hour. Additionally, he has an impeccable commitment towards his cases, and addresses any issues with alacrity and integrity. I'm very glad I was able to find Scott and will continue to remain a dedicated client for any other immigration needs.

He did an excellent job on my petition with a 10 page written to sell my case better than I would ever done. I got my VISA in time, and I'm thankful to have met him at this time in my life... I got several attorney before that were scepticious about my case.

I cannot say enough about my experience with this exceptional Family Law Attorney. From start to finish, she was consistently attentive and made me feel truly heard, something that can be rare in such a complex and emotional process. She was always a step ahead, ensuring that the Judge was well aware of every detail in my case. Her dedication to the facts and her meticulous approach were apparent every step of the way.
What sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares. She takes the time to understand every aspect of your situation, and her empathy is matched only by her professionalism and ethical standards. While she is incredibly supportive, she also offers a grounded perspective, making sure you understand your real options and where adjustments might need to be made. Her guidance is honest, and she provides realistic advice tailored to your financial circumstances, ensuring you are fully aware of what’s practical and achievable.
Her proactive approach, combined with her transparency and integrity, makes her an outstanding advocate. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a Family Law Attorney who truly cares about their clients and is committed to achieving the best possible outcome.

I couldn’t be more grateful for the outstanding service I received from Natalie Lopez. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but her dedication and attention to detail made all the difference. As a close friend from high school, I’ve always known Natalie to be hardworking and genuine, and she truly brought those qualities into this case. Highly recommend! If it wasn't because of her great skills, I'd still be in jail awaiting some serious consequences. Thank you for your hard work Natalie! 🤗🙏🏾 You're a blessing!

Bottom line, Chelsea and Hillary were both fantastic. I rarely do reviews so that the fact that I did this one should really tell you something.

I researched many attorney profiles, backgrounds. But, there was only 1 whose sincerity was palpable. That was Joshua S. Danz. He listened to Me patiently for 45 minutes. His representation was so successful for me and my grandson. Everything I hoped for Joshua achieved. He reached out to me on a regular basis. He genuinely cares. Joshua is the consummate professional, profound understanding of the law. But ultimately a fine person. Picking Joshua as my attorney is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

If there was an opportunity to not leave any stars I wouldn't. Yes, it seems that people love the old man dressed in a finely pressed shirt with cologne who speaks softly to estblish a rappore. This is called 'Bait and Switch" so much, to make extra money they will tell you that you are not happy with their services so that they can call a hearing in the middle of the divorce when it is too late to hire anyone else. Lets charge that invoice. No disucussion, no communication, nothing except for invoices, overbilling for no rhyme or reason. Remember don't assume anything.. this is a game as to which party has the most money so that they can write up an "Agreed Order" which you will not see for opposing counsel to pay. Leins put on your settlement checks, I can go on and on but they are not worth it. OH, Mr. Stok owns a debt collecting agency and a title agency so he likes to own your property which is why he will put a charging lien on that as well. I won't waste any more time but stay away from them ... or else. If I could show photos of what they didn't and did do, I would probably get arrested. But Karma has a way.... Its been 4 years and I never did get my jewelry stated in the MSA and given a fake pension that didn't exist. I was not represented... My ex husband was... remember? it is about who has the money.
As G-d is my witness, everything in this review can be proven. Stay away from them.

What an Immigration Lawyer Can Do for You
An immigration lawyer specializes in helping individuals, families, and businesses navigate the complex immigration process.
