Despite thinking we had finally found a firm we could forge a relationship with, the end result was a very disappointing waste of time. After consulting with Miss Loftin regarding my tenant/landlord matter, she stated we had a case. She claimed she would be willing to represent us and requested I complete client intake forms and register for an online portal to transfer documents (I have 2TB of iCloud) but the firm was using WE Transfer. This seemed to be a new procedure and it didn't go very smoothly, but such is life during COVID-19. After attempting to send files through this free service, it became apparent it had numerous limitations and was basically like a drop box the firm was not paying for. It started declining files, there was a 2GB limit, a real problem for video files, etc. We were scheduled to meet via phone conference at a designated time, but it appeared they had forgotten when we attempted to appear. I had to call into their office to inquire and was told Miss Loftin was busy during our scheduled time. A reschedule was set up for the following Monday, only I received a notice over the weekend that they were no longer going to represent us! Upon inquiry, requesting a more detailed explanation, my email was not responded to. Incredibly unprofessional and completely disrespectful! I guess it was good to have that revealed upfront. Clearly accepting a case and then just dismissing a potential client without explanation is a waste of everyone's time. Miss Loftin was mistaken, as is evidenced in the photos, in her accusation regarding client's confirmation of meeting. The receptionist did not call back until almost 6 pm to "reschedule". Those are facts. read more

My company hired The Loftin Firm to assist with a commercial lease termination - at our initial meeting we met with Ariel and Alex. They each gave the perspective of a termination from a litigation perspective and from a contractual perspective. They were realistic, set my expectations and guided me toward the least expensive method of dissolving an unpleasant lease. During all negotiations, Ariel was professional, unemotional yet supportive and assisted with an extremely unpleasant situation. I was extremely satisfied with the outcome. Since our initial transaction, I hired the Loftin Firm to assist with our new lease negotiations and also assist with a licensing agreement. My husband and I also hired the firm to handle a personal property line dispute and were extremely impressed with the guidance they provided. In all transactions, they have been professional and extremely responsive. We are grateful to have The Loftin Firm in our back pocket. As a prior attorney, I understand the legal system well. I have a lot of experience with attorneys in various situations and feel that Ariel and Team are professional, responsible and extremely skilled. read more

I can't speak highly enough of Ariel Bedell. I interviewed several (ok, more than several) attorneys for representation in a tenant/lanlord dispute and none provided the quality of information, analysis and understanding that Ariel did. She was thorough, reasonable and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend Loftin Bedell. read more

I hired Loftin Firm to help me to negotiate a lease termination for a commercial space in a shopping center. Before I signed up with them, I was told by the attorney that they had experience in this area and have successfully negotiated for their clients. During the negotiation process, the attorney who worked with me never gave me any advice on how to approach the issue. She only did contacting landlord's attorney and writing emails. I felt like a I hired a secretary rather than an attorney. I instructed the attorney avoid any lawsuit and negotiate a contract buyout. Somehow, she took few days off and lost communication with other party's attorney. When she returned, a case had been filed against. When she learned about the case, the first words came out her month were... "we need $20k retainer to fight for you in court". I was totally disgusted. She didn't care solving problem for me, all she cared was her fees. read more

I was first introduced to the Loftin Firm nearly ten years ago. In the past decade, I've referred them to my clients on many occasions, for all different types of business transactions. The service they provide is professional, detailed, and caring. They are true experts in what they do. Without fail, my clients have been happy with The Loftin Firm and I will continue to refer to them. They have personally given me great legal advice for my own business when I have needed it over the years. I highly recommend the Loftin Firm to anyone looking for a great attorney! read more

My husband and I hired the Loftin firm to integrate new owners into our family business. We are so appreciative of strategic attorneys!!! They think through the process, helped us mitigate a potential lawsuit and drafted the documents we needed to be in compliance. On top of that, family business can be tricky and slow for decision making...the Loftin firm is super patient. Highly recommended! read more

I have been a client of The Loftin Firm for about 8 months now. I am so grateful that I have had such passionate and knowledgeable attorney's to save me from some pretty icky situations. I have been trying to open a business and looking for locations is difficult enough, but then you throw in the landlords! Ugh! The Loftin Firm fought for me on numerous occasions and advised me in the direction that suited my needs best. Without the team at the Loftin firm, I would be stuck in a 10 year lease in a BASEMENT! And TODAY, 6 months later, I received the keys to my new beautiful studio! This is my first business I am opening and I am looking back seeing all of the times I was able to ask them questions anytime and they would answer almost right away. They caught a lot of shady things within the past lease agreements because of how thorough they are. The guidance and support I received from this team is priceless! I also got married in the process of all of this and they sent my husband and I a beautiful congratulations card. Thank you, Loftin Firm for believing in me and helping me to make my dreams come true! read more

I was lucky enough to stumble upon this law firm and so thankful I did. In 2013 I decided to embark on the biggest adventure of my life and open a high end hair salon in a commercial retail center. What a difficult process negotiating a commercial lease is. After a few referrals for attorney's fell through I decided to trust google to help me. I found the Loftin Firm listed clicked on their contact us and said I hope this works out. I received an almost immediate response from Ariel that handles this portion of their business. She has been nothing but amazing. I am a young entrepreneur with little experience in commercial real estate. She guided me not only through my lease but advised me in so many other ways that helped me through the process. Ariel's response time was always prompt if not immediate. I was always informed in advance if she was unavailable or needed extra time to manage my matter. 2 years later she continues to guide me with sound advice and has been a reliable confidant and source for me. Starting a new business is very difficult but I felt confident because I had her support. read more
