After consulting with the other firms, Matt was also the only attorney who truly took the time to understand the details of my situation rather than giving a one-size-fits-all response. I'm glad I chose to move forward with Matt and his team. They have been excellent to work with throughout the process. I especially appreciate their professionalism, attention to detail, and PROMPT communication. Matt is incredibly responsive, which gave me peace of mind whenever questions or concerns came up. I highly recommend Matt and his firm to anyone looking for experienced, knowledgeable, and client-focused legal counsel.

I had a great experience with the Next Legal team putting together a prenuptial agreement. I was…read morechoosing between them and two other firms local to the South Bay Area and they showed up with warmth, a clear start to finish plan, and very reasonable pricing. Once the agreement was drafted, there was a California specific addendum needed on the documents for us to get them notarized. The team quickly added it and corrected the document within the hour. I was able to get a comprehensive prenuptial agreement not only drafted and reviewed, but finalized and notarized within a reasonable amount of time. The attorneys, law clerks, and administrative managers were so kind every step of the way. Thank you all!

I'm not sure how they are getting 5 star ratings, but it definitely fooled me when I hired them…read moreback in May of last year. Let me be clear, the negative reviews seem much more realistic as I experienced identical stuff with them. Long story short, they did nothing for me after I took them as representation and made payment. When I mean nothing, I mean literally anything outside of filing normal paperwork, they simply didn't do. Want a suggestion? Get ready to pay them thousands for a quick meeting. Writing an email to them? Better hope they don't need to go to the bathroom in between because you will pay for that time. Another reviewer states it perfectly : "there team was working on my case, which means everyone needed to be aware of the status, and I was paying each of them". This times a million is so accurate!! Every month I would get a new bill with charges I couldn't make sense of, and half of those charges were one team member discussing with another about my case... like seriously?? In the end, I think I payed close to $15k for the 8 months I had them!! 15k!! And mind you, we never went to court or anything. It was literally just email replies and filing paperwork. I told them from the beginning I was trying to be conservative with funds and wanted to end this asap, and they asked for a $4k retainer acting like that would be all I need. They weren't upfront about future costs or options I could make. How in world did I have to replenish another $11k in addition is beyond me. Straight up scammed by thieves. **edit : one thing I wanted to clarify, their rates look somewhat reasonable, well at least for Palo Alto region standards.. hence why I was suckered. But it's not the rate that's the issue per se, rather, it's how they charge you each month based off these rates (see above note on how they charge discussions between team members). My previous lawyer (worst move ever leaving them for this one) charged me 1/4th of what they did, and we actually went to court. This firm will make you suffer with endless costs and charge you thousands each month when there is NO movement in your case.

Marina's skill of explaining legalese in layman's terms was invaluable in crystallizing our thoughts and very helpful in tailoring our restated Trust, Wills, and related documents such as Advanced Health Care Directives, and Durable Power of Attorneys just as we had intended, bringing us the needed peace of mind. With Marina's responsiveness and efficiency we were ready to sign off on the completed documents just after two 40 minutes zoom call meetings with her. The entire process was educational, streamlined, and stress-free. We would not hesitate to reach out to her in the future should there be a need to amend any of our estate planning documents.

I recently needed a real estate attorney for a non-transactional matter. I contacted several…read moreattorneys from SJ to SF, including the East Bay, and found that their responses generally fell into the following categories: 1) Ghosted / never returned my calls. 2) Some replied with a menu of fees with one asking for a $600 consultation fee (a neutral statement, not a judgment on how anyone runs their business). 3) Several days to respond to each message. 4) One launched into a monologue about how he could take my case all the way to the Supreme Court. Eric was the only attorney who responded the same day. He even took the time to decipher my nearly inaudible voicemail, which had been garbled by poor cell reception. He was direct and transparent from the start and spent more than 30 minutes speaking with me before deciding to take on my case. He is exceptionally intelligent, efficient, and highly knowledgeable about real estate law. The level of time and care he devoted to my case made me feel like I was his only client. In addition, he is a skilled litigator, making him a one-stop resource for any legal issues that may arise. He will always be the first person I think of if I or my friends ever need legal advice. If you need someone who is a master of his craft and doesn't play games, Eric is the one.

His questions as well as his responses to my questions conveyed a deep understanding of the invisible nuances that exist in families while also conveying a clear path forward for our particular needs. I found this to be profoundly important. Of all of the people that I consulted, Josh left me with the most confidence. The straightforward simplicity of what services he offers and the value that you get is also a big deal, especially when you're already stressed out. I hope that no family ever needs help sorting through hardships, but if you do, definitely give Family Solutions a try.

From the moment I reached out, his response was impressively fast--within 10 minutes! He reviewed all of the extensive documentation I had submitted in advance and offered a free consultation that was not only informative but incredibly validating. Josh took the time to listen with empathy and offer insights with clarity. His professionalism and kindness were matched only by his precision and attention to detail. Although he acknowledged that my case--due to its complexity and contentious nature--might fall outside the scope of his mediation-focused practice, he provided excellent feedback on how well I had already organized my declarations. He was honest, supportive, and encouraged me to continue advocating for myself as I seek representation better suited for a high-conflict litigation scenario involving false narratives and abuse of legal process. Josh is clearly deeply experienced in working with couples pursuing amicable divorce resolutions, and I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a skilled mediator or attorney for a fair, affordable family law settlement. Even though he may not be the right fit for my specific case, I left our consultation feeling far more empowered, informed, and supported. Family Solutions is lucky to have him--and so are the clients he serves.

My ex husband had a very difficult attorney in the sense that she was dragging my divorce along with my ex-husband but John was very good at trying to stop what she was doing and he always got something for me when they were trying to cheat all the time. John know exactly if the case will be a success or will be a waste of time. I had never had to be after him to tell him what to go for, he got it all for me as I was married 14 years and he got my share financially and custody with my kids.
