Avoid This Lawyer at All Costs…read more If you're in legal trouble, please -- do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. This lawyer was by far the most unprofessional and unstable individual I've ever encountered in a legal setting. Let me start with this: he doesn't own a computer. That means any digital evidence you have won't be reviewed unless you bring your own laptop to show him. No exaggeration -- his office has no computer. At one meeting-- which I arrived at late due to a college midterm -- I had forgotten my laptop. He immediately went on the offensive, accusing me of being on drugs, saying, "What drug is it, huh?" Just for being late and not bringing my laptop. The irony? He doesn't even have one himself. During that preliminary hearing, he began angrily muttering under his breath, not just at me, but at the other defendant and even the judge. His behavior was so inappropriate and disruptive that the judge had to stop the proceedings and tell him to calm down. While I understand he is a military veteran, it was clear in that moment that he was emotionally unstable and unfit to be representing anyone in court. I paid this man $7,000, and in return, he showed up completely unprepared. He hadn't reviewed the evidence and even failed to recognize me in a video presented during the hearing -- a deeply embarrassing and telling mistake. To make matters worse, he was a no-show at the next scheduled hearing. The judge questioned his legitimacy, and my new attorney was left scrambling, with no documentation or case materials passed on. Total chaos. His office -- hidden away in a dark, unwelcoming corner -- reflects the disarray and dysfunction of his entire practice. He's aggressive, disorganized, and treats both his clients and staff with open disrespect. This was the worst professional experience I've ever had. Save your money, time, and sanity. You deserve a lawyer who will advocate for you, not one who humiliates and abandons you.

I don't write many reviews, but after the outcome of my case, I felt David Russomanno deserved one…read more I am an attorney myself, so I am extremely particular about who I trust to represent me. This was also not an ordinary legal matter. It was a highly contested dual restraining order case with significant personal and professional consequences for me, and the outcome was extremely important. I was the person who originally filed for a restraining order. After my petition was filed, the other party filed a competing restraining order request against me. In my view, the other petition essentially took many of the issues and allegations I had raised, mirrored them back against me, and created a false and misleading narrative portraying me as the wrongdoer. Suddenly, I wasn't just pursuing my own restraining order--I also had to defend myself against serious allegations that I knew were not true. Being an attorney didn't make that easier. In some ways, it made it more difficult. When someone is making false statements about you and your reputation and career are potentially at stake, your instinct is to respond to everything and immediately correct every misrepresentation. This is where David's representation really made a difference. From the beginning, David had a strategy and a plan. He understood that we couldn't simply react to every accusation the other side made. We needed to take control of the narrative, establish the chronology of what actually happened, identify the inconsistencies in the competing petition, organize the evidence, and present the complete story to the court. As a lawyer myself, there were certainly times when I had my own ideas about how we should respond or what we should emphasize. But I also recognized that I was personally invested in the case and needed someone who could remain objective. I trusted David's judgment, followed his guidance, and allowed him to execute the strategy we had developed. That trust paid off. When it came time for the hearing, we were prepared. David was able to cut through what could easily have become a confusing "he said/she said" situation involving two competing restraining order petitions. David was able to join the cases before the first hearing date. Then at the hearing he first succeeded in modifying the other party's temporary orders by presenting the evidence and sequence of events in a way that allowed the court to understand what had actually occurred and see through the false narrative being presented against me. After David modified the temporary order the other party wanted a 2nd call to speak to David and he persuaded the party to drop their restraining order. Looking back, I have an even greater appreciation for David's strategy. He wasn't concerned with winning every small argument or reacting emotionally to every allegation. He was thinking several steps ahead and positioning the case so that when it mattered most--in front of the judge--we were ready. As a fellow attorney, I understand the difference between simply knowing the law and knowing how to strategically litigate a difficult case. When you're personally involved, however, maintaining that same objectivity becomes incredibly difficult. David provided that objectivity while also understanding just how important the outcome was to me. This case had enormous personal and professional importance to me. I put my trust in David Russomanno's judgment, preparation, and strategy, and he delivered the result we were working toward. As both a client and a fellow attorney, I highly recommend David. If you are dealing with a complicated or highly contested restraining order matter--particularly one involving competing allegations--you want someone who can look beyond the accusations, focus on the evidence, develop a strategy, and effectively present the true story to the court. That's exactly what David did for me.

I hired David after a California domestic violence restraining order petition was filed against me…read moreby a family member. I live out of state, had never been in this type of situation before, and was terrified--not only because of the court process, but because of the possible professional consequences if the case went badly. The first law firm I hired reviewed the facts and essentially concluded that I was probably going to lose. I then found David, and from the very first conversation, it was clear he saw the case differently. He did not minimize the situation or sugarcoat anything, but he immediately understood that there was more going on than what appeared on paper. He had a command of the procedural issues, the courtroom dynamics, and the strategy in a way that gave me confidence when I had almost none left. What stood out most was that David was not just technically excellent--he was creative, strategic, responsive, and genuinely caring. He understood my state of mind, took my fears seriously, and explained his plan in a way that made me feel protected rather than judged. He was always available when I needed him and treated the case with urgency and humanity. In the end, my mother and I did not even have to fly to California or appear remotely. David appeared for us, spoke directly with the other side at court, and by the time the matter resumed, the petitions against both of us were dropped. That result was an enormous relief. I went from believing I was about to lose everything to walking away with the case dismissed. David is the kind of lawyer people hope exists when they are scared and overwhelmed--the kind of lawyer you see in movies but do not expect to find in real life. I am incredibly grateful that I called him and trusted him.

I studied law but am not licensed in CA so I tried to steer the lawyer in the direction of my defense... which is they have to know its me in the photo and if an attorney appears on my behalf then they will need to get a copy of my drivers license from the DMV to prove it is in fact me in the photo which they will not do and then dismiss the case. I get a letter from The Ticket Clinic stating Benjamin Issakhrian appeared on my behalf that after conferring with the citing officer (It was a camera!) that the result would likely end up in a guilty verdict and that it will cost me $550 with traffic school which I did. The only good thing that these guys did was delay the final outcome. It took over a year so that was good however I feel that they tell you that they will likely prevail and they sure didn't in my case. Some states are way more difficult. For example in Missouri where I grew up, most misdemeanor traffic violations can be fixed with an attorney. NOT SO in California! That said be careful!
