Filing bankruptcy is not an easy decision, and I truly appreciated having an attorney who treated…read moreboth myself and my situation with respect throughout the entire process. From the initial inquiry, he was quick to respond, promptly scheduled my intake, and answered all of my questions honestly and thoroughly. His knowledge of bankruptcy law and the overall process gave me confidence from the start. He was very understanding regarding the complications of my case and never pressured me into filing before I was ready. Instead, he gave me all the time I needed to fully understand the process, ask questions, and feel comfortable moving forward. Everything was explained clearly and straightforwardly, including the timeline, expectations, and guidelines I needed to follow. His fees were fair and competitive, and he also helped ensure I did not spend more money than necessary on required courses and related expenses. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering bankruptcy or exploring debt relief options. I am truly grateful for the guidance, professionalism, and financial freedom he helped me achieve.

TL;DR Version -Adam…read moremade filing Chapter 7 easy and stress-free. -Responded quickly and set up a free consultation within days. -Knowledgeable, straightforward, and honest. Answered every question fully. -No pressure to file. The choice was completely ours. -Always available by email, text, or in-person meetings. -Guided us through every step, including the 341 Meeting of Creditors. -Never made us feel guilty or rushed. -The office is shared with no signage but easy to find. -Great pricing and highly recommended. My wife and I were nervous and unsure about the process for filing Chapter 7 going into it. We did research and had a VERY long list of questions. Adam was really quick to reply to our inquiry and set up a free consultation within a few days. During the consultation, he was very knowledgeable, straightforward, and honest. He took the time to make sure each and every one of our MANY questions were answered fully and helped us weigh all of our options. He also made sure to reassure us that the choice to file was ours and there was no pressure to move forward with him. We decided to move forward since it seemed to be the best choice for us (it was!) and Adam had a great online reputation and fair pricing. Throughout the whole process, Adam was available to answer emails and texts within 24 hours (usually quicker) and available for in-person meetings within the week at his office, which is a shared space with no signage for the firm but is easy to find. What I really appreciated was that he never made us feel bad or guilty for filing. He also always gave us his full attention, and we never felt rushed to make a decision or not ask a question. He walked us through each step and explained everything thoroughly along the way. The one part that we were a bit nervous for was our 341 Meeting of Creditors, but this also couldn't have gone smoother. Adam talked us through each question they might ask and was there with us in his office during the whole thing. All in all, we couldn't recommend a better attorney for bankruptcy. We did a ton of research on San Diego-based attorneys and spoke with a handful. Most of them wanted to charge more and did not seem to value our time or questions. Thanks for making this big step in our financial life as easy as could be, Adam!

I don't think there is enough time in the world to talk about Mr. Cohen's credentials. He is one…read moreof those criminal defense attorneys that embodies everything right in a lawyer. He is passionate about people and the rights of the accused. This is motivated by altruism and intellectualism. He is there for his clients when they call and is excellent at communication and response time. He is smart, zealous, diligent and thorough in his investigation and wok on each case. He has been a mentor to my practice and helps me be the best Lawyer I can be. I have recommended several clients, that were close friend's family, to him on cases that I was not ready for with confidence. I did this because I trust his abilities more than any other attorney and knew that he would do an outstanding job. I would recommend anyone with a high profile case to hire Mr. Cohen. Edit: I forgot to mention he is also an Trial attorney. He is one of very few in the Office of Assigned Counsel that is granted the honor of trying life and death penalty cases. He is not afraid to go to trial and is extremely prepared, tactical, and skilled at trial.

I'm grateful for the work Eric and Blanca put into my case and for their consistent support throughout the process.

After learning about the case and having to find representation for this issue is where I learned that these findings are detrimental to anyone dealing with CPS allegations in their life.

I went in with my 101 year old mother to verify that her living trust was current and up to date. During a meeting mother made an unsolicited comment about making some changes to her trust. That comment was resolved, and I informed Helix that my mother and I were leaving town for a couple of weeks. Before we returned, someone from Helix called my mother house to remind us about our appointment. Since we not home, I feel they should have just stopped the conversation because we were not home. However, it seems that some type of conversation was conducted. This conversation I suspect was from someone who on any other occasion would brag about how sharp my mother's memory is. So, from this conversation, Helix said they were not going to represent us with my mother's trust and that they were going to terminate the contract. We accepted their decision. So as I stated earlier, working with Nick was outstanding. It's just that a conversation about my and my mother's business affair should not have been discussed with someone other then ourselves.

I retained this attorney for a criminal case, unfortunately. For myself, seems what he states…read moreinitially upon retaining, ""now i dont need to worry", isnt the case at all. After 1 meeting & stating he would take to trial is exactly what he did not do. *contract photos First he stares the motions he would nake, & didnt make them. He did not want to talk with me, he did not want to meet & most important he would not listen. He did not look at the discovery and was rude, uncooperative & lacked understanding. He agreed on a price & changed it asking for 1,000 more just because. iItems seeming worthy of consideration he would say, "well, go hire that attorney then" or, "well, they found it didnt they?" when first he said there were requirements not met with the search etc. DO NOT HIRE THIS ATTORNEY, DO NOT SIGN HIS ABSURD CONTRACT WITH A BILLING RATE OF 400.00 PER HOUR & THE RIGHT HE HAS TO CANCEL WITHOUT CAUSE OR MERIT JUST BECAUSE HE WANTS MORE MONEY. Or doesnt like thesound off your voice or whatever. Judge didnt even question... THERE MAY BE AN ALCOHOL ISSUE as his behavior was irratic & unpredictible. I WAS DISRESPECTED, cut off mid sentence, huff and puff while speaking & OUTRIGHT RUDE AS HE RAISED HIS VOICE & WAGGED HIS FINGER AT ME ONLY AN INCH FROM MY FACE OUTSIDE THE COURTROOM FOR EVERYONE TO HEAR. HE THEN PROCEEDED INTO THE COURTROOM WHILE ANOTHER CASE WAS BEING HEARD AND HE BEGINS SKOFFING, SPEAKING POORLY OF ME TO THE DA AS HIS HANDS WAIVED IN THE AIR. I sat in the back rows shaking my head. If could have phone on and thinking quickly i would have recorded but nevertheless.... He did do 1 thing. As he removed himself from the case due to "communication", (his lack of - he doesnt call you, you need to call him or things dont get done nor does he listen to comminication of clients) THE JUDGE ON THIS DAY WAS GOING TO SENTENCE ME WITHOUT REPRESENTATION ON THE TRAILING CASE OF PROBATION VIOLATION. THATS RIGHT THE JUDGE AGREED FOR ATTORNEY REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT OF P D (& i couldn't say a word) AND THEN WAS GOING TO SENTENCE ME WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!! The only time he went to bat for me stating it had been trailing this new case all along and i shouldnt suffer this consequence as result. The judge asked the DA and he agreed, which he did. He did not make any "deals" for me he wanted me to plead Guilty and the only deal he brought to the table was what codefendant public defenders deal and the DAs deal.... BUT WOULDNT LISTEN TO ANY INCONSISTENCIES IN DISCOVERY or my innocence of serious charges. These inconsistencies, based upon feedback, research, etc. should have the case dropped against me. Now i get appointed a public defender. At least maybe they will listen. I SURE AS HECK HOPE SO AS I DID NOT HAVE A GOOD EXPERIENCE ON MY FIRST CASE WITH Criminal Attorney Public Offender, RAY ARAGON. I dont know if it is because i am a female or what the deal is but if i had to put my finger on it I would say many male attornies have issues with women. However i checked Yelp and another bad review. I know someone who has used him and he said follow up (im bad as this stuff scares the *:#=%* out of me) and he squeezed extra money from him unnecessarily. BUYER BEWARE AND MOST IMPORTANT, HOPFULLY YOU HAVE TIME, INTERVIEW AS MANY ATTORNIES AS POSSIBLE BEFORE MAKING A FINAL DECISION ON WHO TO HIRE. This contract is ridiculous!

I don't believe Freddie was honest with me…read more I spoke to Freddie about my commercial lease telling him I wanted the building reconveyed back to me because my ground lease had a clause the structure would be maintained. I told him my lease had an arbitration clause and that I wanted to go to arbitration because my lessee violated the clause for not keeping up condition of the property as it fell into a lot of disrepair. I forward my lease, letters and other documents. When I came for the meeting, Freddie and his litigator said I wouldn't win at arbitration because either all the repairs would be made before and the arbitration board wouldn't find in my favor for lack of maintenance as it isn't enough of a basis to justify reconveying the building back to me. Freddie said he has been doing law for over 30 years. I've been around hundreds of attorneys. Anyone practicing law for this long knows the answer to what I wanted at the time of initial contact. Freddie knew when I called I wouldn't be able to win at arbitration. But instead, he took my $5,000 deposit, charged hours of time from it, then disclosed to me what he already knew from the beginning when I came for the appointment. He could of just told me up front what he already knew. He returned $3,500.00 reducing his $2,000.00 original charge, but I think there was inducement fraud in my view. I emailed to justify my position, but Freddie didn't acknowledge my claims even when we spoke on the phone. I don't think he is honest or has good communication skills.
