My wife and I are busy, business owners and parents of young kids. We were dealing with a difficult situation with a City. I am so grateful for Alex Kasendorf in our matter. To be able to have Alex take the reigns and resolve our issue was a huge help. He was so attentive and communicative. read more

If you're a small business, don't. Just don't. I'm sure they might be better when dealing with big clients. But for our case, a less than half an hour phone call turned into $3500. We needed independent advice for a case where we were already represented by an insurance attorney. High school friend recommended the firm. They will charge you. A lot without disclosing the cost. The worst part is they didn't even advise us on a key aspect of the case which made things troublesome for us. read more

We were referred to Natela Shenon by our financial adviser when our company was approached for an acquisition. From the very first consultation (complimentary), Natela was super helpful and easy to work with. Harry Abrahams was our primary attorney - the process ended up being long, complicated, and sometimes stressful, but he was amazing through it all. He was thorough, patient, made sure we were protected every step of the way and I honestly don't think we could have gotten the outcome we did without him. I'm so glad we were connected with Natela and her team - we'll definitely call them for any future legal needs. read more

Grant Shenon Almaraz really cares about their clients. They are professional, competent, responsive and extremely knowledgeable but most importantly they get the job done and will fight for you. Thanks so much to the GSA team for all of your hard work! read more

My mother passed away and she left me executor of her living revocable trust estate. My sister and I were both 50% co-trustees. I hired law firm Grant | Shenon to guide me through this tough time. My decision was based on a initial phone call with Natela Shenon who striked me as a ethical no nonsense attorney with experience in dealing with the family dynamics that go with estate disagreements. Moving forward Natela appointed real estate attorney Jonah King to take lead on my case. Mr. King's background was a perfect fit to honor my mom's wishes ethically, legally and with sensitivity. Natela's staff with Mr. King was a tremendous in helping delivering a resolution for my sister and I. My sister and I both agreed that me hiring Grant | Shenon law firm was the correct decision. read more

I hired Mr. Grant in the summer of 2024 to represent me in a complex arbitration matter involving contractual and fiduciary issues. Based on written assurances that this area of law was "absolutely in his wheelhouse," I relied on him for guidance and support during a critical stage of my case. Unfortunately, my experience was deeply disappointing. Despite mounting legal fees and repeated reminders that the opposing side would "bury me in legal fees," I received little strategic direction or proactive legal support. I ended up drafting much of the case strategy and legal analysis myself. This wasn't just disappointing -- it was psychologically exhausting. I was already under intense pressure from the opposing party, and instead of receiving the legal advocacy I was promised, I felt like I was carrying the case alone. What I hoped would be a source of support became another obstacle I had to manage under extreme stress. Time-sensitive materials were not shared with me before a pivotal mediation, despite multiple written requests. These communication breakdowns and lack of engagement had a significant negative impact on my case and contributed to disruptions in my professional work and financial stability. I'm currently seeking recourse through appropriate channels, but I wanted to share my experience with others who may be considering this firm for legal support. I strongly recommend asking very direct questions about relevant experience, strategic approach, and expected deliverables -- and getting everything in writing. I hope this review helps others make a fully informed decision. read more

Natela and her team were extremely professional, efficient, and a pleasure to engage with. As what we thought was a very straightforward transaction became more complicated and challenging, we were so grateful to have Natela by our side to offer counsel and referrals to other specialists to advise us. We will not hesitate to call Natela in the future and highly recommend her. read more

Thank you Mr. Almarez! We needed a consultation to weigh the cost vs benefit for a landlord dispute. We called another firm who wanted $350.00 for a consultaion. When we were screened at Grant, Shannon, and Almarez, we were told the initial consultation would be complimentary...what??? Wow! The advice we received was precise and saved us a lot of headaches and money. Both the screener and Mr. Almarez were courteous, professional, and prompt! If we ever need legal counsel, we know who to call! read more

just called to ask a question that if something regarding an issue can be done. The guy who answered just wanted me to get in here and pay the fee w/o telling me even if they can help me or not. " we are a legal Firm and can not give advise without being paid' is what he said.... My response : "I just want to know if you can help or not so I don't waste both of our times, showing up, paying and you saying, no I can not help you but give me that $500 ". He followed by saying " I don't think our firm can help you ,you should find someone else ". I feel if you can not help someone and are trying just to get that last dollar from him possible is a sign OF A VERY SHADDY FELLOW. ..That is a VERY BAD SIGN TO RETAIN SOMEONE... wow!!! what do you think ? read more

Called to speak to qn attorney, and the guy over the phone, says, "he cant give me legal advice, hes just an intake person" but then starts arguing with me and giving me legal advice.....? When i ask to speak to an attorney, he said, they dont have anyone available. read more

It's hard to find a firm with a track record of success and the honesty to truly advise you in the same way that would advise themselves. I have dealt with many forms that are more concerned with the amount of billable hours than the best interests of the client. Adam Grant and the team at Grant Shenon have always been responsive, diligent and honest in all of their legal dealings with me and my companies. I could not recommend them more highly. read more

I highly recommend Attorney Jonah King to anyone who is in need of RE/Trust attorney. He is extremely knowledgeable, skilled, detailed and prompt. I reached out to him about a very complex matter. He skillfully broke it down for me and explained it in terms I could understand. truly a joy to to work wit. I wish more attorneys could match his professionalism and knowledge. If you are hesitant, don't be with Jonah King, Esq!!!! read more

Eddie was incredibly helpful with my tenancy questions! Appreciate him taking his time to respond to my concerns.

I put in a call on Friday and they made an appointment for a consultation call with me after the weekend. They called right on Monday when they said they would. I talked to Jonah King who was amazingly helpful. He had a 30 minute call with me where he listened to my problem and gave me extremely helpful advice and even reviewed some documents for me over the phone. I couldn't believe how helpful he was on a free consultation phone call. I hope to not have to use them as I hope my legal matter gets settled without lawyers but they will be my first call if I need someone. read more

This law firm was who we needed to deal with our tenant habitability lawsuit. We had a wonderful experience with David Almarez and Lily Gevorkian. They were very professional, detailed oriented, responsive to my questions and made me feel confident that I was getting the best representation. David is a real fighter and knew how to get a good settlement. I could sleep at nights. They will be who I turn to if we have anymore lawsuits read more

Adam provided a free consultation to me. I've learned something new and very valuable from him. Excellent Lawyer.

After speaking to a couple other attorneys from other firms I was a little hesitant to talk to another lawyers thinking that again I was going to be rushed and left with unanswered questions; but I decided to try one more time and today I got a consultation with Adam Grant. I am so glad I did because aside of Adam's knowledge and professionalism he was kind and patient listening to my questions In regards of my situation. I finally felt comfortable enough to ask the questions I had and get all the answers I need it. Thank you Adam for your time and for giving me peace of mind. read more

Thank you Grant Shenon for always having our back! Business is so much easier for you on our team. Whether it is a corporate transaction or an ugly lawsuit we always feel protected and well taken care of. Will never do business again without your counsel and guidance. read more

Im really impressed with how fair they are in their communications and how professional in they they explore and explain the possibilities of what they foresee . They have Junior attorneys working on the cases but Nutella Shenon is on top of the situation , and communicates by email usually about the current standing - also flexible in terms of payment agreements- I dont have the outcome to my case yet, but am confident they are doing everything legally possible . Thanks to Jonathan for his amazing communication skills and accountability. I would definately recommend their services wholeheartedly read more

Wow I'm still in shock after getting off this call a little while ago. I called for a consult and the man taking the intake was extremely rude and disrespectful. He would ask me a question and while I'm answering he was taking notes aloud. Then while I was speaking would write down/repeat what I'm saying incorrectly. So I was trying to correct him so he could give the attorney accurate information and he yelled at me very loud saying stop and LET ME FINISH WRITING MY SENTENCE!!! I just got quiet. He said sorry for yelling but I need to write my sentence and you wouldn't stop talking. Ummmm I'm at this point quiet and thinking to myself sir, you asked me questions and I'm answering and politely correcting your misinformation/notes you were taking because you were too busy speaking instead of actively listening. What's interesting is I worked as a legal assistant and so I know what the intake process is. None of that included being extremely disrespectful to potential clients or anyone that called in or walked into our office. When someone is reaching out for an attorney it's because they really need help and have gone through something they feel they are unable to accomplish on their own. No matter their story you should treat everyone with kindness because you one day could be in the same situation and compassion and kindness goes a long way. read more

Grant Shenon Almaraz - Phone call where I was yelled at. - Business Law Near Me - Sherman Oaks, California

The man on the phone was rude and belittled me. He explained the pricing to me, I said that works for me. He then told me that they were "very expensive" and he "doesn't see how I could pay for the services given my eviction case was due to non payment." He didn't ask any other follow up questions. Then told me that they wouldn't have availability and that I should call someone else (I never gave him a time frame). Very unprofessional. Would recommend training your customer facing staff on proper phone etiquette. Especially being that you're a law firm, you should know that there are many factors that go into these cases and that just because a tenant is facing a nonpayment eviction, doesn't mean they don't have the money. Option wasn't left up to me but would never do business with them after this experience. read more

No words can describe how immensely helpful this firm has been during some legal issues I've experienced recently. I was very pregnant and under a lot of stress and my attorney Lily Gevorkian from Grant Shenon was the absolute best. So thankful I found her! She is extremely calm, confident and knowledgeable. She and her team helped me settle everything smoothly and efficiently. I know I'm taken care of with their legal representation. You can rest knowing you'll have a strong team behind you. Thank you Lily! read more

Very disappointed in this firm. Told them I had an urgent real estate matter they told me the price I agreed to the price and they stated they were sending out the invoice. No invoice received no answer when I called back and of course I was left in a dilemma ....I wouldn't recommend read more

The case intake was smooth and professional, the price and expectation are upfront. Mr. Grant gave a me 30 min free consultation that has a lot of value in it. It goes a long way knowing that they are efficient with their time and my money. read more

I used Grant for a rent control issue and he was responsive and very thorough! I would recommend him highly !!

Covid restrictions derailed our wedding plans this year but our venue wouldn't give us our deposit back. After the wedding venue suddenly went no response on us, we reached out to Shenon law, and they did a great job walking us through all of our options (even the free ones that didn't involve paying them!). We did hire them, and they did a fantastic job getting us our money back quickly. We felt well represented and taken care of the entire time. Stephen, Natela and Jennifer were all so quick with their communication. It was incredibly freeing to know that they were there handling everything, and they were very good about preventing any avoidable costs. I can 100% say, we wouldn't have gotten our money back without them, and we're so grateful we can move on with our lives! read more

I was in need of some legal advice, a friend recommend Grant Shenon Law to me and I was nothing short of impressed. Everyone I spoke to was professional, kind, gracious and answered all of my questions I had in detail. I specifically spoke to Adam Grant and he was wonderful.

Thank you again Grant Shenon for all of your help! read more

I have worked closely with Natela Shenon for two separate and important issues (creating a note for a carry back deal and helping navigate a real estate deal gone south due to unethical sellers and agents). Natela is proactive, resourceful, direct, and efficient while also having respectful and kind professional manners, a strong backbone, and being a solid judge of everyone involved. I've worked with numerous lawyers in various fields of law in NYC and LA and Natela is the best of the best and will be using them in the future for all major deals. read more

Adam and Carlos helped us very quickly and in this specific matter no charge , they were responsive and very pleasant to work with , it's nice to know that there are good lawyers out there. Thanks again guys read more

I am a member of Legal Shield, who referred me to 3 attorneys (only allowed one at a time) who wanted to be on their  referral list, but none of them called me back.  So I, being Yelp Eliter, went to Yelp and put in Real Estate Attorneys, and arranged the sort to "Highest Rated First".  I put in request for free consultation.  Shenon Law in Encino responded almost immediately, being Mark, the client intake manager who told me Ms Natela Shenon found my issue very interesting, but she only does transactional work, not litigation.  Shenon Law had just merged Alpert Barr & Grant.   Next thing I know, Mark made arrangement for me to speak to Adam Grant. ON A SATURDAY, too.  I was already impressed!  When I looked at Alpert, Barr & Grant on Yelp, I see most of the all solid 5 star reviews are about Adam Grant.  Make sure you go to the "Not Recommended Reviews" link near the bottom of the page, there's more 5 star reviews there. Mr. Grant not only agreed to read my 4 page detailed write up about my case, BEFORE WE TALKED ON THE PHONE,  which no other attorney, had the "patience" and willingness to take the time to read the 4 pages, which to me, saves a lot of time.  I told Mark, if he reads that, then we can get right to talking about what he can do for me.  Mark agreed.   Here is another thing about Mr. Grant.  Other attorneys do not want you to have their email addresses or their personal phone numbers, unless you become their client.  But Mr. Grant gave me both.   Other attorneys wouldn't even give me a chance to speak to explain my issues, and they are already cutting me off, making me so nervous and flustered.   No other attorney asked to see the actual contracts involved in my case, because they just want to know enough to see if your case will make money for them, in as little time as possible, because time is money.   But Mr. Grant looked at both contracts.  He told me (not good news) that both contracts have arbitration clauses and "limited liability", said about one I have to find a Texas attorney, because he researched that the company is based in TX so any claim is has to be under Texas law.  And the other contract, I should be able to sue in small claims court, in a different jurisdiction for the $10,000 (my loss amount), because that is the limit now. I lost so much sleep over my legal issue, my blood sugar is higher, I had to ask my PCP for sleeping pills to keep me from "ruminating" in the wee hours, My 30 min consult with Mr. Grant gave me some relief and direction, even though his news was not as favorable (arbitration only and limited liability, cannot be held responsible for consequential damages, etc.) for me about my chances than what I thought before I talked to him, at least I got pointed in a direction.  I felt a weight lifted that I had been carrying around, because I didn't know what to do, and got so much conflicting legal opinions, YES from other attorneys, telling me they strongly do not agree with what some other attorneys told me, I just got so confused.  ONLY Mr. Grant seemed to know what he is talking about because for one thing, the other attorneys REFUSED  to take the time to read my detailed account and examine the contracts, because time is money. We spent half an hour on the phone, plus the time he took to read my 4 pages, of what happened, before we talked, and the time he took to read the contracts, and more time to research the company I wanted to sue, I am sure Mr. Grant spent over an hour.  And when he discovered this is not a case that he could help me on due to not having a TX license, he still continued to advise me, give me direction, and "be there for me".   "Happy to help", he says. read more

Called to make an appointment and the guy I talked to was very mean and non cooperative. Always was stated $700 in hour. Didn't even listen and then said I decide everything and you need to find another attorney and hang up. read more
