I wish I could give 10 stars! I had a frivolous lawsuit in California, so I used google to look for a lawyer. I contacted 4 of them. 2 of them had no experience with this common lawsuit. The big time third one would not give me ANY information without sending her a $5,000 retainer. This is the only firm that someone actually answered the phone, (Erica), listened attentively and took notes (I could hear the keyboard clicking).Within an hour, a lawyer, Cathleen Huang, contacted me because she read the notes and understood I was upset. Cathleen gave me some valuable insights on the situation, and was not at all pushy to get a retainer. I called her back and hired her. She got the case dismissed. Her billing rate was reasonable, and she was a pleasure to deal with. This approach to dealing with clients is not an accident. They are running a first class law firm. You can tell from the first phone call.

I highly recommend Jacob Barlev of Bowles & Verna. Jacob helped me navigate through an unexpected issue that arose during a real estate transaction. Jacob thoroughly assessed and explained my potential liability and how to navigate the issue without it becoming a legal court case. Jacob was instrumental in developing a settlement agreement that was fair and defensible, bring the issue to a successful and timely close. Jacob was pleasant, responsive, thorough, and patient throughout the whole process. Thank you Jacob!

I cannot recommend Ani N. Keledjian enough. From the very first consultation phone call, it was abundantly clear that Ani was experienced, knowledgeable, and willing to fight fiercely for us - and she did just that. After about 10 months of fighting and advocating for us, Ani helped us win our legal fight over large debts due to us and, not only did we win, we came out better than we expected in the first place. Ani is kind, fierce, professional, a great listener and I would definitely recommend her to anyone I know!
