Max is the best! When I needed some help, he went above and beyond in every way possible. After an unfortunate event, I contacted Max and as soon as I sat down with him, he made me feel a thousand times better. In the end, he got rid of the bogus charges against me and I really couldn't be happier. Thanks a lot, Max!

So I don’t usually write reviews, but I had to write something about lawyer, Max Gorby. I’m a UCLA student and I got into a little mess a few months back for having one too many mojitos and trying to drive to my girlfriend’s parents house in Tarzana. To make this very long and sad story short, Max got my sentence reduced to a wet reckless. Considering what I was facing, the guy is a magician! Thanks Max!!!

Max incredible and a top recommended attorney in Los Angeles. If you, your friends or your family need a lawyer Max will take care of you.

Karen was very professional and extremely knowledgeable. She did a great job of explaining the process and fighting for my rights. She was always available to answer my questions and concerns. She personally guided me through the entire process. I felt very well represented. She was proactive on all points with the court and DA and helped me make the best of an unfavorable position. I would highly recommend her to any person that is in need of a defense attorney. She was worth every cent.

Im so incredibly grateful to Karen & Her team! I was facing some heavy charges, but she was able to dismiss them! Thanks Again Karen i hope you keep helping others

This is not just another review, this is a TESTIMONY. I prayed God for an Angel and He send me two; Karen & Debra. God Bless You Both and hope you can help other people as you did with me. You are Awesome!!!!!!!!! Best Regards. Ignacio Gonzalez.

I was very pleased with Ms. Goldstein's work in my case. Having never needed an attorney before, I didn't know what to expect. Ms. Goldstein made herself available for any questions or concerns I had, and took the time to make sure I understood everything involved. She's proactive and fierce and completely dedicated to her clients. Highly recommended.

Let's face it - you don't want to be in need of Ms. Goldstein's services. But if you ever find yourself in need of a criminal defense lawyer, you will be in safe, experienced hands with Karen Goldstein. From our first consultation to the conclusion of my case, she was not only a tremendous support and ally, but a confident, knowledgeable and fierce advocate. Her approach is no-nonsense: she told me within the first hour what the best and worse case scenarios would be, and her personal opinion on how the case would turn out. She was on top of every deadline, responded promptly to every communication, and held my hand through the confusion of court dates and paperwork. Not only that, but Karen managed to get the "best case scenario" for my case and I could not be more thrilled with the outcome. From the moment I met Karen, I knew I had made the right choice in a criminal defense attorney. And while many client would be reticent to publicly post a review, I had to sing her praises.

In 2019 I was arrested in Pasadena facing 25 years. this was my first time ever being arrested or charged with a crime, and I had 5 felonies. I thought my life was over. The first 3 times I went to (Pasadena) court I was assigned a public defender, who was not only extremely busy with other cases, but also did not seem to believe that I was telling the truth. After speaking with other inmates I had my father contact the Shouse Law Group, where I was placed in contact with attorney Karthik Krishnan. He immediately set up a meeting to come and visit me, where I explained my situation. Unlike with my public defender I really felt that Karthik wanted to help me, and that he would do everything in his power to help me. Within 2 weeks we had made more progress than in the previous 3 months, and my outlook on the situation began to change. I remember one day Karthik was visiting me, and he could see that I was very stressed. He asked what I was concerned about, and I explained that I was loosing hope and that I didn’t know if I would ever see the outside would again. After patiently listening Karthik then explained his step by step game plan for every single one of those concerns. I cannot tell you what a difference this made, I went back to my cell filled with hope. This hope was kept alive due to the great communication he had with me, I never felt forgotten. I stopped worrying about getting “lost in the system” because I knew he wouldn’t let that happen. Karthik seemed to take a lot of pride in helping me, and I could see that he was actively motivated to get me justice. This in turn motivated me to stay out of trouble in the jail, and to not give up, something many inmates around me had done. I really felt that he went above and beyond to help me not only understand the laws and the legal side, but to also show me that my life wasn’t over. In the end I was sentenced to formal probation, with a program instead of state prison. I could not have been more satisfied with this outcome. Karthik even explained that in a few years I have an opportunity to reduce my felonies to misdemeanors, and that he would be able to help me with that too. He went above and beyond to help me, and I could not have been more grateful to have found him and this firm.

The Shouse Law group is an extremely dedicated law firm. I've assisted their clients with Sr22 for years and have never had a client say one bad thing about them. This firm fights for their clients and I'd recommend them to anyone.

Had a terrific experience with Shouse Law Group. Elisa Guadan helped me tremendously and was able to clear up and resolve my case. Thank you for all that you did!

My dad got his 3rd DUI and was facing a lot of jail time. I was able to convince him to hire a private DUI attorney instead of the public defender. Didn't know where to look but I found Shouse Law and saw they had a bunch of strong reviews. I called for my dad and it was the best decision. Thanks to all the hardworking attorneys there

We just can't say enough good things about our experience with the Shouse Law Group and our attorney David Woolf especially. When our grandfather was injured, we really needed someone to step up and they did that and then some. They fought for us, won, and even more importantly, showed heart and compassion while doing so. Highly recommend them.

Our company, JDI Data has been working with Wood Smith Henning & Berman for many years and they have proven to be one of the leaders in construction defect litigation. We highly recommend them to insurance carriers and Developers looking for experienced attorneys to handle their cases and get them the best results.

I was quite impressed with Mat Rochlin. I have been in business for almost 50 years and one thing I alway hate is legal headaches. Mat did a great job of communicating and keeping me in the loop. At the same time he kept things moving forward and did a great job of closing this off before trial. Keeping costs unproductive losses and time down. I have great respect for his keeping me calm while I was put off by false and inflated claims by the opposing side. He can do a secondary job of being is Shrink for keeping my feet on the ground while I was angry over being made to be seen in an inappropriate and unflattering light. I would very much recommend him for his astute legal acumen and skillful maneuvering in todays complex legal waters. Try him out you won't be disappointed.

Awsome attorney named Stacey. Always represents her clients with integrity.

Nice staff one of my favorite law Firms

Adam stayed on top of things and would constantly check up on me to ask if I had any questions or if I needed to do anything he would let me know as soon as he had the information I needed. Answered all my questions same day or would get back to me once he had the information available. Very out going and easy to talk to. Overall great experience with them and they were able to reduce the charges on my case.

I would totally recommend Manshoory Law Group to anyone that has ran into some tough times. When they handled my case a little while back they got it dismissed, they gave me confidence during a really rough patch in my life, they reassured me with everything going on in my case that I would be fine. Shortly after they were successful in having my case dismissed they also took care of my seal and destroy to make sure that it wouldn't show up on my background check when searching for new jobs and moving forward with my life. If you do decide to choose Manshoory Law Group just know you're in good hands with people that are very professional and that genuinely care about their clients.

I am so grateful for my experience with Manshoory Law Group and My attorney, Travis Sabaitis. This firm gave my DUI case all the time and attention that was needed to be successful in court. They were calming, sincere, and a confident presence during very difficult court proceedings. I never once was treated as anything other than a valuable client by Mr.Sabaitis. I very much appreciate the knowledge and support I received through Manshoory Law Group. These people know their craft and walk the extra mile for you. I was handled with utmost care and professionalism. I also appreciated working with people that care for you on a personal level instead of just handling you as a "case". I Highly recommend them

Edward Blum is a DUI Attorney pretending to know what he is doing in Family Court. One key ingredient of Family Law is to help alleviate tensions and keep the situation calm, but Edward has enabled his Client NOT to follow the Court's directions, helped hide a child from a parent when the Judge instructed the opposite. Edward should be heavily vetted before you let him represent you, there is a reason he does not have current reviews. Do your research.

Thank you Ed. Great lawyer gets it done. He comes highly recommended call him 1st if you need legal representation.

I was very close to receiving a DUI in 2017 and I contacted Edward Blum for some advice on how to move forward with this issue . Long story short Mr.Blum got my DUI lowered to a misdemeanor speeding ticket and I have been beyond grateful since then. He made one of my most stressful times in life almost easy the whole process through. I highly recommend at the least a consultation with him if you find yourself in such a predicament like myself.

Best lawyer. I’ve had him for 7 years. Honest. Always gets the job done. Very affordable. I Would never change him for another attorney. He has gotten three of my cases dismissed. I would recommend him to anyone facing hard times.

Very dependable. Knows his stuff. Will go neck to neck with anyone for you. Trust in him and you won’t regret it!

    I was very close to receiving a DUI in 2017 and I contacted Edward Blum for some advice on how to move forward with this issue . Long story short Mr.Blum got my DUI lowered to a misdemeanor speeding ticket and I have been beyond grateful since then. He made one of my most stressful times in life almost easy the whole process through. I highly recommend at the least a consultation with him if you find yourself in such a predicament like myself.

He worked really hard on my case, got my bail to get lowered, helped my charges get lowered as well, and was able to go home and reunite with my children

David Diamond has represented my son and had gone against every principal you try to teach your child with accountability, honesty and integrity. Everything we tried to do as parents to protect and teach your child to do the right thing was thwarted by enablers and David Diamond. We would always tell my son that we love him and he will figure it out one day. He still has to figure things out and to live a productive life in society but he knows now the ones who had his best interest at heart and the enablers. When we tried to get our son into rehab, every effort was to fabricate and make excuses for behavior rather than to acknowledge the behavior and find out why it is occurring. Thank goodness my son does realize that he needs to adjust to society in order to excel in life.....which does not mean you give up your personality and beliefs but you exist where you can be happy and content in life but still follow social rules and guidelines. This will take many more years for my son to learn and David Diamond hindered that along with three enablers who have since apologized for their part in what they have done to lead this child down a path that was not ok. Please .....every parent vote as if this were your child who you were trying to help, yet being hindered every step of the way.......

Dave is an awesome DUI attorney. I was honestly worried sick about what I was facing. LA is a commuter town and you have to have a license. This is not New York and you have to drive. I don't want to go into too much detail but Mr. Diamond pulled off a miracle for me.. I truly learned my lesson and no more glasses of wine on a Friday night for a Shabbat dinner for me in this life!

Need a great lawyer call david diamond

Excellent Service! Right from the moment I spoke to a representative from this company on the phone I knew they were going to do a fantastic job. My son was charged and was being held and I was so scared for him but Diamond & Associates took control of the case and did all the interviewing, dealt with all the witnesses and took care of all the court documents that I was unable to understand. They literally held my hand through the whole process and the outcome was very favorable as my son was released with all charges dropped. Thank you Diamond & Associates I will praise your service to all I come across!!

Alana and Natalie of WalkFreeLaw have done an exceptional job for me, and in a case in which they represented a close family member, at my request and hire. I have employed many attorney's for different reasons and areas of law, over the past 4 decades. Alana & Natalie of WFL represent a rare and almost extinct type of lawyer - these two women actually practice law to help people, they are in it for the right & honest reasons. The same as doctors of medicine practice medicine, to heal people. WalkFreeLaw is known in the court system at the locations we needed, having contacts and connections to get you the best results, and in my family member's case - the exact best results. I hired WalkFreeLaw Alana & Natalie off of their internet advertisements/website, and from another US State, in order to help my family member in Los Angeles California. I communicated with both women using all of our modern technology, and never met them in person. I went on a BIG leap of faith that WFL would deliver, and they did, even more so than expected, and both definitely exceeded my expectations. My trust and respect, (not easily given), has definitely been earned by Alana and Natalie of Walk Free Law. If you have come across this law firm, you need look no more, you are at the right place - a very good place.

I wanted to say thank you to Alana from “walk free law” for dealing with my case. She achieved the best result possible for me, better than I could have hoped. I think she is one of the best lawyers in Los Angeles, she is very professional and trustworthy. I am sure that she will get you through your case and obtain the best result possible.

I want to send my heartfelt thanks to Alana and Natalie of Walk Free Law and their staff in taking our case. Not only were they so professional, but also so caring and thoughtful. It was very difficult going over the mental illness facts in my son's case, but they were so compassionate and understanding and allowed me up to date information every step of the way. I was able to discuss options and likely scenarios; I saw how hard they worked on our behalf. I feel that Walk Free Law is probably the best firm in the Los Angeles community and I would from the bottom of my heart, recommend them to anyone who needs representation for themselves or for their loved ones. I cannot thank them enough for all that they have done for my son.

Alana was very helpful as well as very attentive to my case. She had my interest at heart and gave me very good advise. In the end, Alana, achieved the best outcome for my case. I hole hardly recommend her, she will fight for you.

Alana is an amazing lawyer, she is extremely knowledgeable of every aspect of the law and knows how to use it to protect you. She is fierce, and really advocated for me and got me the results I wanted. I would recommend her to anyone, I’m so grateful I found her.

Hired them to do a post-conviction case review (which, to be fair, was decently thorough) and it was supposed to be applied towards any legal work. They ended up wanting to refer us to another counsel after the person whose case it is got upset about the options being presented and expressed this verbally, but not disrespectfully, over the phone to the case manager. They did NOT honor the agreement that the case review investment would be applied to future legal work. They also had another staff member call by proxy to give us this news, rather than having the case manager involved call us directly. This brings up the question: if you can't handle a little heat, how in the world are you going to be fighters in Court? Quick to take the money, but short on empathy or tolerance in understanding people's situations.

Another person posted the pros and cons of this firm and some of them I agree with and some of them I disagree with. The original post is below and at the end I'll give my opinion where I agree and disagree. "Here are the honest PROS and CONS of Spolin Law. READ THIS FIRST if you are thinking of hiring them. PRO: They do criminal law appeals and seem to know this material well. Their posts indicate that cases have multiple attorneys assigned. Always better to have a team of lawyers than just one person. There is an actual support staff helping on cases They have a ton of success stories in the media, so it looks like they can get results. Just google "Spolin Law client walks free" for one example. CON: They are not a generalist firm that can just handle anything, like dui, immigration, suing the government and that type of stuff. They are not a guarantee that you will win. Some firms in other areas of law can guarantee success, like a business incorporation attorney. They don't seem to work for free. A recent law school graduate might be more willing to take on a free case for publicty, but it doesn't seem like they need publicity. This is not the cheap dollar-store option. " I agree with some but not all of this. I agree with most of the general points but I disagree with two things listed here. Disagreement number one is that they say a person can not guarantee success in criminal law but that is not true because you could have a great case and know that you are going to win like the OJ Simpson case where there were five or six expensive lawyers for OJ and they were bound to win from the start if you think about it. Disagreement number two is that you can not rely on other posts to know how many attorneys are assigned to a case, because seeing stuff in the media where there were multiple attorneys does not mean that every case has multiple attorneys.

These guys know their stuff. They just got a murder charge dismissed with the help of the new DA George Gascon.

They are very nice people

I highly recommend Spolin Law! Attorney Aaron is an amazing person and extremely responsible for his client. I had an dispute with my former client and caused some trouble to my firm. And he would listen to my side of the story and patiently guided me through the whole complicated legal process. He is very knowledgeable in terms of insurance law and gave me priceless advice during every process. More importantly, he, for the whole time, has been extremely proactive on my case. He always made contact, followed up and kept me updated with the status of the case. I can imagine that he has done a great deal of work and explanation on behalf of my firm to deal with the prosecutor. Eventually he got my case dismissed. 5 Stars are way not enough to value his constant professionalism, profound experience and excellent service!
