Gets flustered with anything that requires him to do some work. Shows up barely in time for court hearings. Avoid this lawyer and find someone who cares about his clients and understands who he works for when a client hires him. He deserves zero stars, but that is not an option. At least my son found a competent attorney with a spine who knows the law so well, she didn't get flustered by opposing council's tactics as this guy did.

When I went into business 19 years ago, my CPA recommended Nathan Hannah, and he also was very thorough and completely capable.

My mother in law passed away 3 years ago and when we were emotionally ready to tackle probate I…read morecalled a few attorney offices. Mr Zack sounded professional and qualified to do this very simple probate case, boy did I misread that. Please keep in mind that this is a very simple and uncontested probate case with very minimal assets and only 2 siblings (which were in complete agreement). Well 2 years later the probate is almost complete. This has been the worst experience I've ever experienced with what should be a "professional" business. The level of incompetence that this attorney and his staff has demonstrated over the past 2 years is mind boggling. When I originally spoke to Mr Zack he said that an uncontested probate can be easily handled in 6 months with more difficult cases taking 1-2 years. Fast forward 2+ years and my very simple case is almost complete only after my wife and I had to, on multiple occasions, call to forcefully inquire. If you are considering hiring Mr Zack or his associates I would strong urge you to reconsider and retain someone else who is actually qualified. The only reason I gave 1 star is because a negative star wasn't an option.

My experience with this firm was profoundly distressing and traumatic! My funds were disbursed…read morewithout the provision of adequate counsel or assistance in understanding the process. When I articulated my concerns regarding the lack of support, the attorney responded with aggression. This firm's conduct left me feeling isolated, unprotected, victimized, and entirely vulnerable. I strongly advise against entrusting your legal matters to this firm. They are prepared to accept your financial resources but do not anticipate receiving protection, counsel, or compassionate treatment; they demonstrate NO concern for your circumstances. I would rate them -0 if this was an option. In addition, based on the firm's public responses to other dissatisfied clients, it appears they dedicate significantly more effort and resources to defending their own image than they do to defending the interests of those they represent.

Be sure if you can't pay the full amount to look elsewhere. We had issues with a family member who…read morewas listed on parents will as personal representative to follow it through and never has. We paid $500 and had one lawyer contact the PR once. I kept calling to get help and was told another lawyer was working on it. I gave a one star review and that made the main lawyer call me. He said he would get his guy on it. But after that nothing more. We called back after a couple of weeks and got the runaround. They never returned the call. Also called Probate Court and was told nothing was even filed. My husband has not gotten any resolve from the whole thing. A member of the law office called us to say they were closing the case. I told her my husband's brother ( PR) sold the house and we haven't heard anything. She told me that the lawyers would be told that. They never called us back.

Thabet represented me in a lawsuit against a restaurant in which I fell off an unlit corner of an…read moreoutdoor stage and broke my leg. He quickly gained my trust (no easy feat) and never complained at the amount of times I called with questions or a need for reassurance. He took the time to get to know me as someone more than just a client with a broken leg, and always surprised me with his patience and empathy (I've heard too many lawyer jokes). He was always straightforward with me, and was well-versed in the laws of the county in which I live, even though at a distance from Tucson. He never pressured me, and he let me take all the time I needed to make all the hard decisions these cases seem to entail. Best of all, he made it possible for me to settle with the restaurant in a way that satisfied both the owner and me. I recommend Thabet without reservation to anybody looking for excellent help with a legal problem.

I found Mr. Khalidi to be duplicitous, perfidious, unorganized and lacking knowledge of the financial aspects required in dividing community property. Additionally, Mr. Khalidi and the opposing council Mr. Robert Lewis III erroneously tried to utilize 2005 superseded case law Biddulph v. Biddulph (1985) to massively overvalue community property in favor of the petitioner. My goal was to settle as quickly as possible, and Mr. Khalidi made this process very difficult for them. I provided Mr. Khalidi with evidence and expert witnesses, which he dismissed. I also tried to hire a different attorney, but Mr. Khalidis peers refused to take over my case or were busy. I gave Mr. Khalidi one star because I couldn't give him a lower evaluation.

Saved my son and my sanity…read more I found Joy using an internet search from Japan in 2004. My wife at the time was a mess and not getting any better. Her abuse of herself ultimately left our son in the worst kind of situation possible for a 5 year old (use your imagination). Joy provided me some guidance and I retained her for custody and divorce services. When I arrived in Tucson we met soon to go over documentation I had collected and to file paperwork to keep my son in AZ and to have monitored visitation. A man obtaining custody is never easy. Joy walked me through it all, sat next to me in court, and kept me strong through the process. Fast forward to 2019. The last time I saw my ex-wife she was on a lockup show on TV. My son is 22, and a Navy nuke guy on a sub. He is doing well because I was able to parent him separate of a person who cannot take care of herself. Joy and her team made this possible. As an active duty Marine with minimal income, this is by far the best money I have ever spent. Joy's experience and relationships in the Pima County legal community enabled her to represent me and my son exceptionally.

I held the mortgage when I sold our old house. When I had a problem with getting the monthly…read morepayments on the house, I went looking for a law firm specializing in real estate. Based on reviews, I pcked Brei-Castillo. Justin Castillo has been wonderful. I nearly broke down crying when I went to his office. But he reassured me and started work immediately. The problem has been resolved and I can stop worrying. Justin is a great lawyer, knowledgeable and caring. I recommend him and his firm to anyone who needs a real estate lawyer.

I hired Mr. Castillo in June to represent me. He successfully completed sending a demand letter and…read morecreating a draft complaint at the cost of $3500. In Sept, I was expecting an updated draft complaint with edits I had sent to him. Instead of contacting me regarding my updates to the complaint; Mr. Castillo instead contacted the city I live in for documents I had already supplied his office in June. He then, using the same documents, claimed my case was weak and said he wanted to change my complaint. However, the email and letter he sent gave no indication about how he wanted to change my complaint, nor did he provide me the updated draft copy I had been waiting 10 days for. He did provide a photograph of one side (there are two) of an inspection record which he called a 'document' in later correspondence with me. Another document that he alluded to in his Sept email I didn't receive until 4 Dec; It took leaving 2 reviews and 3 more emails to his office. His reasoning for not providing the document sooner was I told him to "standby." However, he alluded to this document on 10 Sept and I told him to standby on 24 Sept. Now I'm told that document was "inadvertently not included" in his 10 Sept email to me. When I received September's Invoice, I was charged again for "reviewing" documents- including the ones he had already received from me. I first asked him about the billing and the fact that he had not provided me any additional documents than what I already had received from the city. When Mr. Castillo responded to my initial questions he did not provide the documents, nor did he elaborate on how he wanted to change my complaint. I tried again to point out to Mr. Castillo that, a photograph is not a document and the secondly I did not receive the missing document, I believe it is My directness in conversing with Mr Castillo that caused him to decide "this relationship isn't working out" and quit, in an email, on Wednesday before Thanksgiving at 330 PM. In that email he offered to "refund" me $700 for the work he did relating to the city's documents. I believe this was offered because I have a valid Arizona Bar complaint for over-billing and abandoning a client. However, in order to receive my retainer and refund I will need to make the 4-hour round trip drive to his office since he won't mail it- but his office encouraged me to mail-in rather than drive up my last deposit? Overall, the majority of my costs were incurred though correspondence with Mr. Castillo with little actual work on my case. I am dissatisfied with the lack of communication from Mr. Castillo regarding his desire to change my complaint without any clarity about how he wanted to change it until the email where he quit. I was also informed by Mr Castillo he will sue me if I do not remove my review; claiming it's defamatory. In order to protect myself and freely express my unhappiness regarding Mr. Castillo's professional performance I edited this review. I received a second correspondence from Mr. Castillo regarding my previous yelp and google reviews. Considering I have nothing positive to say about Mr. Castillos handling of my case, I am not surprised he is unhappy with my review. Now, I believe he is trying to intimidate me by threatening a lawsuit. However, my perception of my professional interactions with Mr. Castillo is not defamation. He failed to perform his duties to my expectations. I've said nothing of his personal character, only my personal disappointment with the service he provided. Since Mr. Castillo is sending private correspondence directly to me regarding these reviews, instead of addressing them publicly leads me to believe that he has used the same threats and intimidation in the past to have negative reviews removed. I received an email from an attorney's office claiming to represent Mr. Castillo with a demand letter stating that he is going to file lawsuit on 16 December if I do not remove my review- free speech is not illegal and Ive stated nothing false. Also, it's been three weeks since he QUIT ON ME- and the $10,000 I deposited for retainer has not been refunded to me.

He was well qualified, very knowledgable, a great trial attorney, and very responsive to our calls and emails. We highly recommend him. However, on the downside, this firm is extremely expensive, constantly raised the hourly billing rate (as soon as 30 days after signing a retainer agreement!) and seemed to have no consideration as to how much the matter was costing us. We were very clear up front as to the value of the property in litigation and as to what we could afford yet still, we wound up spending $250,000 in litigation over a property with $160,000 in equity.
