I was contacted by this attorney after being referred through a State Bar referral service…read more Initially, the voicemail and introduction were professional and gave me a positive first impression. Unfortunately, the call quickly went downhill. Very early on, the attorney claimed to already understand my case without asking several key questions that would reasonably be expected in a family law consultation. When I attempted to clarify or provide context, the conversation turned into what felt more like a lecture than a consultation. Comments such as "whoa," "pump the brakes," and repeated interruptions made it difficult to get a word in. The tone became increasingly dismissive, with statements like "no, no, no -- this is this type of case," despite limited fact-gathering. I ultimately let him speak uninterrupted, at which point the conversation abruptly shifted to billing. I was told the case would require a $12,000 fee, framed as reasonable because "it's not $10k and other firms charge $15k." There was no clear explanation of scope, strategy, or why that number made sense for my situation -- just a comparison to higher numbers elsewhere. I then raised reasonable concerns about publicly available information: mixed reviews, limited time practicing in California, and lack of specialization in the specific area of law I was seeking help with. I asked how he would address those concerns and explain why hiring him would make sense. The response was dismissive, characterizing negative reviews as coming from "a few angry or upset people," followed by the comment that this was not "shit on Nick day." At that point, I ended the conversation and thanked him for his time. Overall, the experience felt unprofessional and overly familiar in tone, rather than client-centered or consultative. If this is how communication is handled with potential clients, I would be concerned about professionalism in higher-stakes settings. Zero stars if that were an option. I would also caution others that a State Bar referral does not appear to vet for professionalism or communication style. Only licensure I suppose.

Worst experience. Completely unprofessional, unresponsive, and disrespectful.I hired Nick expecting…read morecompetent legal representation, but his handling of my case was entirely unacceptable. Throughout the process, communication was nearly impossible. He routinely postponed scheduled calls, spent minimal time discussing my case, and consistently used being "busy with court" as an excuse to blow off my questions. I constantly walked on eggshells and accommodated his schedule, yet received zero support.The worst part occurred when he failed to show up for a scheduled court appearance. Despite being my attorney of record, he forced me to represent myself. When I messaged him during the hearing to get guidance on court lingo I did not understand, he became furious. After court, I called him to ask him a couple questions and yelled at me, condescended to me, and hushed me when I tried to speak. He falsely accused me of messaging him too early in the morning, which was entirely untrue.Nick showed a complete lack of respect, an unprofessional work ethic, and deeply concerning behavior toward me as a woman. No client should ever be yelled at or abandoned by the lawyer they paid to protect them. I am officially filing a formal complaint with the State Bar Association. Avoid this attorney at all costs.

I worked with Marc Wiesner on a SIBTF workers' comp case that had been unresolved for years, and I…read morecouldn't be happier with how it turned out, Marc really dug into the details of my situation- including how my case interacted with SSDI benefit and LTD and used that to build a strategy that actually made sense for me, instead of a generic approach. He was responsive throughout, straightforward about the challenges we were facing, and moved fast when timing became critical ( there were some legislative changes on the horizon that made speed important). We got everything finalized just in time. If you're dealing with a complicated workers' comp or SIBTF case. I 'd highly recommend Marc and the term at Wiesner English.

Kevin impressed me very much as an attorney with his clear and focused advices. Kevin quickly reviewed my documentation and confirmed I had a valid lemon law claim. Instead of immediately jumping into litigation, he provided clear, strategic advice on exactly how to communicate with the manufacturer to maximize the chances of a voluntary resolution. His guidance was invaluable! Kevin told me precisely what to say (and what NOT to say) when calling the manufacturer's customer service. He explained the entire repurchase process and what to expect, helped me what to expect and what would be the options, and he was always responsive to my questions via email very quickly. Even during holidays! The result was superb! Following Kevin's advice, the manufacturer agreed to repurchase my vehicle without any need for litigation and any legal process. The matter was resolved efficiently, saving everyone time and legal costs. Kevin was very practical, professional, and focused on getting the best outcome with the least hassle. He could have easily pushed for litigation or unnecessary process, but instead he gave me honest advice that resolved the issue quickly. I was so impressed with Kevin that I highly recommend consulting with him. His expertise and strategic guidance made all the difference in my case.

I supplied them with ample information/documents. When I met to discuss concerns over charges I quickly fired them after feeling dismissed. I later received a transcript email (by accident, I assume) of our meeting/conversation them discussing other clients cases and also how I was being charged for "waiting". Their conversation also discussed how some of them were able to get more women than other staff based upon their hairstyles. Highly inappropriate and extremely unprofessional. Also, the first time I spoke with my assigned lawyer live was at the call where I addressed concerns over billing. I was suprised to learn he was male, I kept addressing him as 'her' because I had only read emails and thought Tanzeel was a female name. (No disrespect intended) I'm only adding this to show how little communication there was with such excessive charges.
