We recently completed a major 20 month renovation of our home and property . We literally replaced…read moreand upgraded everything on the inside and outside of our home . We added a major outdoor kitchen structure in the backyard, all new landscaping , uplighting , fencing and the like. Each application ( request ) of the HOA , with the exception of steps and a gate on the side of the lot was approved. We completed our construction on time and within the parameters of the HOA's approval. A retroactive application was submitted for the side yard steps and it too was approved . The person who owns the home behind our property seems to have nothing better to do than to complain about any improvements others make to their properties and did so both to the city & the HOA. BTW, I'm on the Board of this same HOA. An HOA Board member inflamed the situation with the complainer as well. Rather than ask a few simple questions about our improvements the HOA sent a cease & desist letter when our project that was more than 90% complete . We then had a discussion with the Board & Project Approval group who literally couldn't figure out the side yard from the front yard. Then they wanted us to tear down and move our new replacement fence . In checking with many good ( sensible ) neighbors we determined the style of this HOA Board is just bully members into submission. They've been on the Board forever and bring very little value. We'd had enough . We met with the BPE group , they gave us an honest assessment of our options and great council about how we might proceed to protect our rights . They were also very honest about our chances of success and what the cost to us would be to retain their services . At the same time we worked with the City of Roseville to obtain a variance for our fence. BPE wrote letters to the HOA which ultimately required them to obtain council . We thought this was key . "Legal on Legal" was a game changer and necessary unfortunately to bring this matter to conclusion. The HOA insisted on measuring our structure and it was exactly the height as approved . BPE insisted that their lawyer attend the inspection along with BPE. Following this inspection and some 5 months of work with BPE, they decided to stop harassing us knowing they had nothing to take to Mediation. We feel like we received professional and realistic guidance and BPE associates were highly sensitive to our billings . They offered great council with respect to getting a win that's "good enough" and knowing when move on. I highly recommend them if your HOA is treating you unfairly and incorrectly. Randy Riggs

I came to Shiells and Hammer to get some help with estate planning for my parents. We're immigrants…read moreand not very familiar with complicated American legal systems so it was amazing to have people like Adam and James walk us through this process. They made everything easy to understand which is important since I am so unsophisticated with issues of laws and regulations. And they had some great solutions for some of our trickier questions, I can definitely say they offer some very creative legal advise ;-) On a personal note, I would also say I got a very good vibe from both James and Adam. Adam is so outgoing and charming and, even though James comes off a lot more shy and reserved, he's clearly a good guy and not "slick" like a lot of lawyers come off. I also get the vibe that they are both good family men with strong traditional values, which made me feel so comfortable bringing my parents to them. I definitely recommend them to anyone!

Finding James Hammer was such a relief. From the moment I walked into his office which is…read moreprofessional, beautifully decorated, and welcoming I felt at ease. I brought my 18-month-old daughter, and he made it completely comfortable for us both. I had a lot of questions and concerns, and he never rushed me during our free consultation and was very generous with his time. He patiently walked me through different scenarios, explaining why I shouldn't make certain decisions too early, which gave me real peace of mind. He also recommended a fiduciary, set up the call, and made sure I wasn't charged just to get a file started. Everything was setup as flat, "out-the-door" fee so there were no surprises. Knowing he recently became a dad himself made him even more relatable and understanding. I left feeling like I had a plan, not stress, and that my daughter's future was in good hands. He's knowledgeable, honest, patient, and genuinely family-friendly. I would recommend James Hammer to anyone who wants both expertise and a lawyer who truly cares.

What. matters most here is how well they were treated, how well their expectations were met, and how successful and painless the outcome was. I'm happy to say that McCoy Fatula checks all the above boxes, and some. At the outset, I'd like to mention that my experience was, by and large, limited to Ms. Lorie Wood of this law firm. I may sound hyperbolic here, but from the depths of my heart, I felt overwhelmed by the courtesy, kindness, empathy and understanding that Ms. Woods exhibited. She was warm, compassionate, very knowledgeable; and with all these qualities in her armoire, she helped us navigate seamlessly, smoothly, and painlessly through what is usually a painful process. In the end, I do not want to forget to mention that the financial part of my dealings with McCoy Fatula was very reasonable. I have no hesitation whatsover in recommending this wonderful law firm and its team to whoever might be in need of services that they offer.

I searched in Yelp for a law firm that can do this for me. Among the five law firms that were suggested by Yelp Mike Yee from Yee Law Group was the one who responded first. Mind you, this was on a Saturday where most law offices are closed. Mike was responsive with great follow-through. He answered many of my questions, he was professional and nice and from that communication I agreed to a free consultation. I did inquire with two other firms but Mike had the most reasonable rates. Their main office is on Land Park in Sacramento but I found out that they also have a convenient location right here in Roseville just 5 mins from my work. We started the process and completed the whole thing in less than two months. I'm so glad to finally get this one task done.
