My client was needing a real estate attorney and not knowing who to call, so she turned to Yelp and found myself in contact with Mr. Nokes. I've clearly won the lottery because, not only was he extremely knowledgeable as he represented us, but he did it as though he was a friend, advocating for us and explaining each step of the way. He is the kind of lawyer everyone wishes they could find, but generally doesn't exist; professional, experienced, and genuinely a very nice, trustworthy guy that wants to help. His assistance is greatly appreciated and he will certainly be the first real estate attorney I refer to my clients for legal services in the future. In case you read this, thank you, Mr. Nokes & Denise!!

We hired James Burns to help us create our living trust. He was nothing short of exceptional. As…read morethis was our first time going through this process, James was very patient and explained every detail to us. I found James on Yelp and he certainly lived up to his 5 star reviews. Setting up an initial appointment with him was easy peasy. We actually did a zoom call for the first meeting, as it occurred during the Covid pandemic. He sent us some initial paperwork to fill out, and that's what we discussed during our zoom call. The second meeting was at his office, as we had to sign the paperwork with a notary present. The meeting went smoothly and fast. Their office is located in Aliso Viejo in a professional office environment. The next day, our binder with all the paperwork was available for pick up. We were so impressed with how organized and efficient they are! We enjoyed James's mild demeanor, kind personality and strong attention to detail. We are so glad that we chose James to help us through this process, and would highly recommend him to anyone!

I interviewed a handful of lawyers and I knew Jason was my guy after our first conversation. He wasn't pushy, he was patient, and I knew that I'd be dealing with him (the principal) instead of an associate. Jason came through with a great settlement. I couldn't be more satisfied with his service, and I highly recommend him. Thanks, Jason! James

I came to them with a breach of contract issue and was honestly feeling pretty overwhelmed. Initial contact from Coast Counsel was very fast. I spoke with Michael who offered a free phone consultation and he put me at ease. He really knew the ins and outs of the situation and explained everything in a way that made sense, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. His phone etiquette was stellar and i felt valued and understood. What I appreciated most was how fair and accommodating Michael was when it came to pricing. It never felt like it was just about money--Michael genuinely cared about helping me resolve my issue; he did some additional research in relation to my issue which I thought was amazing of him to do! Communication was also excellent. Anytime I had a question or concern, Michael was quick to respond and always kept me in the loop so I never felt left in the dark. Thanks to Michael's guidance, I feel as if I was led to the best possible solution for what I came to him for. I'm so grateful I found Coast Counsel and Michael, and would recommend them to anyone looking for an attorney who is not only knowledgeable but also compassionate and easy to work with.
