I recommend this law firm to anyone involved in a car accident. They'll take great care of you.

When my dad passed away a few years ago, he charged my mom more than $10k to update her trust. When my nearly 90 year old mother called him to adjust her trust to add special bequests, he told her "you can do this yourself" and refused to answer any other questions. He said he was booked for months and couldn't meet with her, and told her to email her questions to him. Since she doesn't know how to use email, I reached out to him. After I got involved, he suddenly was offering my mom a complimentary in person meeting. Not only was this unprofessional, but rude to an elderly client. Needless to say, she dropped him as her lawyer. It's time to retire Mr. Miller.

I was told to wait to speak and to stop taking notes during the meeting, which felt dismissive and made it harder to participate in the discussion.

He took me for a ride…read more I subscribe to Hyatt Legal Services, and on January 2, 2007, my plan was to take care of estate planning. They gave me 2 references, one being Mr. Dawson Crawford. His office was conveniently downtown, and so I made an appointment for January 25. On January 9, I received this correspondence from his assistant: "Regrettable, with the holiday confusion I inadvertently booked you an appointment on January 25, 2007 @ 1:00 p.m. with Dawson Crawford, Esq. when that time slot had already been filled. I would be happy to get you set up with another appointment. Could you please call me at your convenience, so we can get this straightened out?". No problem. I rescheduled for February 22. And made that appointment. I waited, and waited... Didn't hear anything... didn't want to call, because I figured it just was taking a while... On May 18, I received this correspondence: "Sorry I have not gotten back to you sooner. It was a pleasure meeting you. I have been exceedingly busy this spring, especially in my San Francisco office, and it does not look like there will be any let up. I think your estate plan needs more time and review than I am unfortunately able to give it at this point. I am sorry about this, I just wanted you to know so you can move forward with another lawyer. I will not bill you or Hyatt legal plan for the meeting." I issued a complaint to Hyatt Legal Services, and moved forward with another lawyer.

This recent case in the news wasn't the first time Bill Weisberg's overly aggressive "litigation"…read moretactics unnecessarily cost his clients money, but it may have been the last: Kahn v. Price, San Francisco Superior Court docket number CGC-18-564579; Court of Appeal case numbers A159536 and A160057. The trial court sanctioned him, his firm, and his clients $47,345.30, saying: "That the Prices and Weisberg possessed an 'evil motive' is obvious[;] that they pursued it so blatantly is astonishing." Getting sanctioned that much is already uncommon; getting chastised that badly by a court is truly extraordinary. In September of 2021, an appeals court not only agreed, it made a point to add: "We assume the trial court and attorney Weisberg have already reported the judicially imposed sanctions to the State Bar of California." Maybe so. Weisberg decided in February 2021, during the appeal, to become inactive with the State Bar, meaning he cannot practice law for now. Good luck to his former clients whose cases are still going. AND Ken Sperandio of the Law Offices of Craig Miller is being sued along with Tiffany Norman, esq. for breach of contract by another client. Case Number: CGC22599055 Title: FREDERICK O. LEWIS III VS.

Well, first of all, don't review your attorney unless you are going to give them 5 stars, right?…read moreThese guys deserve 5 stars, so I'm writing a review. :) I worked with Bill Weisberg and his team about a year ago to resolve a thorny situation with a squatter on my Dad's property. the situation went from ugly and confusing to very matter of fact and RESOLVED! I loved Bill's calm and practical approach to the situation. He was very thoughtful of my Dad's interests and took the approach that would make the most sense and be ideal financially for my family. When the Sheriff Deputies came by to finalize the eviction they confirmed that hiring a good attorney is always the best thing to do. It was, and I'm so glad we found Bill!

I scheduled a consultation with one of their attorneys to discuss a potential case, but the intake…read moreprocess was cumbersome. It took me most of the morning to assemble all of the information they were requesting, even though it was stated that the questionnaire likely wouldn't be referred to during the consultation. It seemed like an unnecessary exercise, given the informality of the consultation. Add to it that the the intake specialist had a generally unaccommodating and dismissive demeanor, and just gave the general impression that my business was unimportant. It caused me to question whether or not I'd even want to work with them, but I figured I should still take the consultation since I'd come that far. Luckily, the attorney I spoke with was professional, and answered all of my questions thoroughly. He seemed to think we had a viable case, so I followed up again a few months later once we were ready to proceed. When I called back to schedule another appointment, I got the same stern and one-sided communication from the intake specialist again, and it raised the same red flag that I'd felt before. This may be a great firm for all I know, but communication style matters heading into a legal proceeding, and I just have to trust my instinct on this. It's very frustrating to have to start over from scratch after paying $500+ for a consultation and wasting all that time on the intake questionnaire, but I don't feel comfortable proceeding.

I hope I don't have to go through the same ordeal I did but it is reassuring to know that I can count on Joe for excellent representation.
