We just finished setting up our Trust. I can honestly say I…read morewas not disappointed in the slightest. Living far from his office, we were initially concerned about distance, but it never became an inconvenience. Every step of our trust setup was handled smoothly and efficiently through virtual meetings and clear communication. What truly impressed us was that when we emailed, the attorney himself--not a paralegal or assistant--responded promptly and thoughtfully. Thanks to his flat-fee, full-service approach and exceptional responsiveness, we were able to establish our trust with complete confidence and peace of mind. No matter where you live in California, the quality of service you receive from this attorney will be outstanding. I give my highest recommendation.

I'm so happy that I got a recommendation for Matthew's services…read more He's fantastic to work with. I'd procrastinated forever establishing a trust/will. Just the thought of doing this is very overwhelming. Matthew made the process very stress free. He breaks the process down and carefully explains everything along the way. Today, I visited his office for a signing appointment and I now have a trust!! What a great feeling. I regret that I didn't take any photos of his office space. It's beautiful. As soon as you step inside you forget that you're in an industrial area. I highly recommend!

Update: I have received a very courteous call from Lauren Rios after posting my review; she…read moreexplained their intake process and I suggested it would have been nice to hear something along the lines of "if your case can wait till the month of _________, we'd be happy to consider it at the time." Bumping my review by one star. After reading glorious reviews, Lauren Rios was my number one choice and the first attorney I contacted. The receptionist took down my personal details only to inform me right away that they are not accepting new clients at this time. I wasn't asked for any details of my situation to determine whether the firm has the expertise or the bandwidth to take on my case, now or in the future. This left me wondering whether my Jewish-sounding last name made them turn me away without any further consideration. After all, it would be enough to ask for a first name only in order to carry on a conversation.

Mario is truly very kind, sincere and goes out of his way to make sure everything gets done correctly. He also offered to explain everything I needed to know rather than quick short answers and rushing through the process. He took his time to make sure I was comfortable with my understanding of the subject matter. He got everything done in a very timely manner and not once did I have to remind him of anything. I highly recommend Fausto Law for your business needs! You won't be disappointed!

How interesting: I'm one of the only real reviews on here, and I'm one of the only negative ones…read more Huh, I wonder how you get so many fake (good) reviews..... My honest review: I hired the Law Offices of Christiana Samuels to aid in my divorce. I am not an attorney, nor am I a divorce attorney. However, I believe that I have been mistreated as a client, and I am pursuing recourse through the California State Bar. I spent thousands of dollars, and months of my divorce, trying to work with this firm, and, during that time, I actually moved backwards in my divorce. In fact, my attorney never provided one solution or answer to what my ex was doing/arguing. I've now lost privileges to my child, and I'm facing a much more dire financial situation due to the mistreatment I received here. I never imagined I would hire an attorney who would make things worse--and then ask for more money. So, after over 6 months, thousands of dollars, and feeling like I am now in a WORSE place, I cannot recommend that anyone employ this firm. Our legal troubles are too important to be dismissed like this, which is the treatment I got the most from this firm. They won't want anything to with you... until you need to pay more money, of course. In fact, right in the middle of a very intense battle with my ex, my attorney abruptly STOPPED answering my calls and emails because "the retainer was too low." Can you believe that? You will be abandoned by this firm if you are a little low on the retainer. It doesn't matter if you need your attorney in that moment--money comes first for the Law Offices or Christiana Samuels. Please, learn from my mistake and take your challenging, confusing, and painful legal matters somewhere else. Because, at that made-up firm, you might actually find a lawyer who cares about you. You won't find that here.

Joseph R. Zoucha is truly a lifesaver. Getting into a divorce is so difficult, and going up against…read moresomeone who doesn't follow the law and is high-conflict is incredibly stressful. Joe knew exactly what to do every step of the way. He helped me fight someone who owned a business and refused to disclose it. In the end, we won the case, and the other party was ordered to pay my attorney's fees. Joe also helped me prepare for a deposition, which I was so nervous about. He made sure I felt confident and ready, and that support made a huge difference. What stood out the most is that Joe truly cares more about his clients than the money, he always had my best interest at heart. He is smart, experienced, and knows the law inside and out. Thank you, Joe, I will recommend you to everybody.
