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

The good news here is, you've came to the right place. David and his assistant Steven are the best in the business! The Law Offices of David Chesley are very thorough in handling their cases, and do not stop exploring all the possibilities for the benefit of their clients. I thought it was going to be difficult because I had a criminal case in Compton, but his expertise and extensive knowledge of the legal system made the process run smooth and relaxed… David is a fantastic lawyer, and is very dedicated and involved in his client's case. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend Mr. Chesley. I knew I needed a lawyer fast!! I looked at the reviews for criminal lawyers and came across David Chesley, and let me say, I am thankful I did. Attorney Chesley's work was amazing, and his fees are very reasonable.

I was accused of some criminal allegations which I hired attorney David Chesley to represent me for. David did a great job defending me against these felony allegations. He gave me the facts and didn't sugarcoat anything. He had a plan and knew what he was talking about. Attorney Chesley helped fight for me and got me the best deal he could negotiate with the prosecutor after 4 months of hard work. This was way better than I was hoping for. The receptionist at the Chesley Law Firm in Los Angeles was also very helpful and very resourceful when I called. I highly recommend.

Very knowledgeable. Although I am stuck with the criminal defense lawyer I have, a simple free consultation with David Chesley was more reassuring in 30 minutes than I have had experienced in few months. Exceptional range of knowledge, endless patience with my myriad of legal questions. David’s guidance was invaluable to me and I would highly recommend him for all legal matters. Five stars for the Law Offices of David Chesley. Thank you!

David and his staff are really kind people who care deeply to help their defense clients in a superb manner and at a great price. He was very responsive whenever I had a concern.

I spoke with Mr. Gunsberg for legal consultation. Very knowledgeable and discussed my options. I'd recommend for legal needs.

Anyone would be well served by paying the Law Offices of Jerod Gunsberg a visit and seeking out a free consultation. Mr. Gunsberg is an extremely well-respected colleague in the criminal defense field; he is diligent, committed, and also very easy to relate to, a quality that is sometimes hard to find in the industry. I currently refer matters involving co-defendants or other conflicts of interest to Mr. Gunsberg, and I am happy to do so, because I know that he treats his clients as well as I treat my own. He has the skill, the insider know-how, and the diligence to get the best possible result from any given situation. When it comes to choosing an attorney, especially a criminal defense attorney, trust is an absolutely essential, irreplaceable quality. Mr. Gunsberg consistently earns the trust of his clients (and his colleagues, like myself) by the work he does every day.

Mr. Gunsberg is a highly efficient professional and very knowledgeable. I was very satisfied and impressed with his work. He makes himself available and works very hard on your case. I highly recommend him. Very honest at very reasonable rates. Excellent representation!

Very professional, knowledgeable, best of all caring about your concerns...your case! Highly recommend him. Tom Mendez

Very communicative, he got my felony DUI dropped down to a misdemeanor in a court that rarely grants misdemeanor charges! He was even able to get my court fees significantly dropped!!! He’s also showing up to another court date as a courtesy to me to make sure my insurance covered damages, my family & I are very grateful, highly recommend! Great lawyer!

Ron and his paralegal Joanie were both incredibly personable from the start. Ron was highly communicative and followed through with every promise he made. The matter was handled in less time then we expected and Ron was successful in achieving my desired outcome. I highly recommend individuals involved in any automotive -related legal matters contact Ron as early as possible and explore their options. They’re consummate professionals and will ensure your best chance of successful resolution.

HIRE THIS ATTORNEY!! TRUST ME!! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!! I hired Ron Hoffman and his law firm for a hit and run defense in which I probably shouldn't have been able to get the charges dropped, but Ron and his team were able to get me off the free and clear. His team was amazing in every step of the process. The were in constant contact with me, charged me a very fair rate, handled all the paperwork, walked me through how to deal with my insurance company, worked with me when times got tough and money was tight and were so amazingly supportive. I could not find an attorney that was going to help me for a fair price and Ron and his team took me on and it was the best decision I could have made. Very easy to talk to both him and his associate Jodie. 10/10 would recommend!!!

Attorney Ron Hoffman and his paralegal Joanie are just an awesome team! If you are currently experiencing a situation where you think it is a dead end, you have come to right place! Give Hoffman & Associates a call and not only will they help but they will give you the relief of knowing there is a way to fix it! They will educate you, keep you updated with everything, and most importantly they will be right behind you every step of the process. Ron has the best legal expertise there is and he is dedicated in helping his clients get the best outcome in their situation possible. I was grateful for Ron helping me in my nerve wrecking situation and ultimately got my case dismissed. He is a very understanding person and makes the expense affordable and manageable. I 100% recommend you give them a call, you won’t regret it!

My personal experience with Mr. Ron Hoffman and his Paralegal Joanie was far from amazing! When I called them for the first time I was going into a panic attack mode. Ron is very knowledgeable of the law and of his profession and Ron and Joanie got on my case right away and it was a friday evening when I called. They were both very professional, considerate, on top of it, throughout with details but also very compassionate. They TRULY care about the clients. I was always provided updates from my case and treated with respect and as a human being not just another client or number. Honesty when it comes to the value was also a key component. This law firm will NOT rip you off like many law firms do. They go above and beyond with knowledge, expertise and a great deal of compassion. I'd recommend Ron Hoffman and Joanie for any of my friends and family members who may get caught in a difficult situation. Wonderful and caring service. Took 10 lbs of stress from my shoulder. Top notch!

Ron Hoffman offered responsible, reliable, knowledgable and experienced legal help. He was personal and professional and truly cared about us. He was able to manage and navigate a difficult case and achieve a favorable outcome. Ron was also readily available every step of the way. He doesn't sugar coat things and there are no surprises and is very transparent. We highly recommend him and his associates.

I would like to express my gratitude to the best attorney around, They are very responsive. and they truly care about their clients. They go above and beyond to help their clients. I can't say enough nice things about them. I truly recommend them if you have a problem. And I am from Fresno Ca.

5.0 star rating In 2019, my son was arrested and was accused of a serious crime. His case was deemed "difficult to defend". My son was looking at life in prison and I needed to find a great lawyer to help him. We looked at some lawyers but then we saw the Law Offices of Shaun Khojayan & Associates. We immediately called and was greeted by Gracie. She was kind, helpful, and understood our emotions. She set an appointment for us to meet with Shaun Khojayan. Once we meet with him we knew he was the one that would defend my son. He was very helpful and we were delighted to hear that he was able to take on the case. We hired him and it was the best decision I made for my son. During the preliminary hearing, he and his wife did an amazing job defending my son and found inconsistency in his case. After the preliminary hearing, Shaun wrote to the D.A to dismiss his case, and then we waited. While we waiting to hear back from the D.A we entered the COVID pandemic and my son's court dates were delayed. Despite the many delays, Shaun constantly stayed in contact with my family for updates and we appreciated the communication on his part. His hard work paid off when my son got a miracle deal. His letter worked, and my son was released from jail. He was able to return home after 13 months. We are so thankful to Shaun and his law firm for working hard to defend my son's case. Highly recommend Law offices of Shaun Khojayan & Associates to anyone who is in need of legal services. They make you feel supported and are always there to help you.

I don’t write a lot of reviews, but Shaun was awesome. He took care of everything and gave me the best result possible. He truly cares about his clients and will fight hard for you! My family and I are truly indebted to him.I highly recommend Shaun for anyone who’s looking for a top notch attorney!

Shaun, First and foremost we would like to say that without your help, knowledgeable advice and dedication we would not be able to enjoy the new life that we have now been granted. For many years my father and I have been terrified that one day this would still be hanging over his head and possibly lose the opportunity of our family being whole. During the hearing we were nervous and terrified, even after hearing the word granted we still weren’t sure what exactly was going on. It’s been stressful and some what nerve racking throughout the entire process. We couldn’t have done any of this without you. I know my father now feels that sense of freedom that for so long has been trying to feel. My children will definitely get to see their grandfather as they grow, I will be able to live my life knowing that my father will no longer have the possibility of deportation hanging around. It is a great feeling for all of us. We want to thank you so much for being as active and precise as you were through this entire process and we couldn’t have asked for better representation. A long and hard road it has been yet now it has become a smooth sail for us. Thank you so much, we appreciate everything you did for us and we will definitely never forget this moment and you as well. Again from the bottom of our hearts we thank you, my family thanks you, and we wish nothing but the best for you and your family as well. God bless.

Very Professional and caring! Always attentive and great staff! Shaun loves his job because he is on top of everything and he never says no on the contrary he explains everything and is detailed as much as he can and Gracie is the best, always answers right away and does not matter the day or time and is very polite. Treat us like people and like family. Thank you, for everything!

    5.0 star rating In 2019, my son was arrested and was accused of a serious crime. His case was deemed "difficult to defend". My son was looking at life in prison and I needed to find a great lawyer to help him. We looked at some lawyers but then we saw the Law Offices of Shaun Khojayan & Associates. We immediately called and was greeted by Gracie. She was kind, helpful, and understood our emotions. She set an appointment for us to meet with Shaun Khojayan. Once we meet with him we knew he was the one that would defend my son. He was very helpful and we were delighted to hear that he was able to take on the case. We hired him and it was the best decision I made for my son. During the preliminary hearing, he and his wife did an amazing job defending my son and found inconsistency in his case.

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!

David Elden has been my criminal defense attorney colleague for forty-five years. I have represented clients along with David many times and in many states in both state and federal courts. David Elden is one of the smartest lawyers I know and have ever had the pleasure of working with. David is honest and honorable in every aspect of his life and his practice. I recommend David Elden without any hesitation for anyone looking for a first rate criminal defense attorney.

I had the pleasure of watching Mr. Elden during a court hearing and I was impressed by the way he handled himself in front of the judge. He was prepared and demonstrated a deep understanding of the law; in fact, at the end of the hearing the judge complemented Mr. Elden on his knowledge and dedication to his client. I would recommend him!

Thank you so much, Mr. Elden, for your professional, creative, thoughtful and powerful services. I shall definitely recommend you to whom needed.

Mr. Elden was wonderful! He is professional and carries the heart of a teacher. He will explain the complexities of law in a very simple way and lays down a foundation of understanding so that you will know what the next steps are and what to expect. He was honest with me and my situation. He even explained that his representation wasn't necessary in my situation and that I didn't need to hire him. Imagine that! A lawyer who cares about people more than money! David Elden is a true professional and in the event that I need his services, I will definitely be coming back. I would recommend him to anyone who finds themselves in a questionable spot and needs professional advice or representation!

When I was first contacted by the FBI regarding my case, I had no idea what to do. David was recommended to me by a friend and colleague, and I am glad I chose him to represent me. Initially, I was facing up to several years in jail, but with his help, I ended up with probation. David's experience and connections were crucial in my success. He kept me well informed and was always accessible by phone and email. During such a stressful and tumultuous time in my life, I felt confident with him on my side. I truly got the sense that he cared about me as a client, and I am grateful for what he did for me.

I got the impression he was generally incompetent. Spoke with him and he did some grandstanding about how law is like sorcery and made vague and general statements, then offered to take the case for 30k. An oxygen abuser. He replied to this and seemed to think he can authenticate telephone calls with a survey; demonstrating his competency and aptitude. Always do these tests before hiring an attorney.

He wasn't able to build any value so I didn't hire him, but man did he try. I quizzed him on the law and he failed then pretended legal precedent is secret classified knowledge lol. Scam artist Now he's leaving some standardized reply to try to wash away his rejection. Sad. Before you pay for a worthless lawyer, evaluate you're own ability to copy and paste from other legal cases

APPRECIATION OF SERVICE FIRSTLY, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK AND APPRECIATE FOR THE EXCELLENT SERVICE PROVIDED BY YOUR REPUTED ESTABLISHMENT. MY EXPUNGEMENT PROCESS ENTRUSTED TO YOU HAS BEEN COMPLETED ACCURATELY.WITH YOUR EXPERTISE. SO, I AM COMPLETELY GRATEFUL OF YOUR SERVICE AND WOULD LIKE TO RECOMMEND ANYONE WHO EXPECT TO HAVE A PERFECT SERVICE. VERNON VIRAY, CLIENT,

Daniel Perlman is the man! He’s knowledgeable , professional , and cares for his clients. He took my brother in law’s case on short notice and he did a great job! I recommend this office. I will definitely keep them in mind should I ever need their services. Also staff is very professional.

If you’re looking for a good lawyer Daniel Perlman is the guy. He was very helpful, knowledgeable, and attentive. He was reassuring every step of the way and fought for the best outcome! I would highly recommend to give Daniel Perlman a call if you’re looking for a great lawyer.
