Stay away from this Attorney !!!! I swear, this is the worst attorney I have ever dealt with. I hired Sami for my divorce case since June 2020 as he recommended by Yelp in San Diego area. From that time until now (May 2021) Sami has done nothing except submit the divorce papers in the court since June. I'm contacting him periodically by phone and email to inquire about what he is doing for the case, but without any response !!! Unfortunately, a whole year has been wasted for nothing!! I paid him a flat fee amount of $2,435 for nothing !! Again, don't lose your money and time. Don't hire this guy. I just want to comment on your reply to my review. Would you please explain which tasks you have completed? You do nothing!!!! You charged a flat fee for nothing, if you did something please explain it. Just check your email and phone and see how many emails and calls without any responses!!! Is that your professionalism to deal with your clients? Have you asked me for extra fee and I refused? You just let me wait for a whole year for nothing. I hired another attorney, she completed all the requirements and she got the trail within one month only!! Once again, you charged me the fees for nothing you did !!!

This review is long over due! Sami has gone above and beyond with helping me get through a divorce. I truly lucked out when choosing him as my family law attorney. Divorce and child custody can be awful...it is awful!! But Sami has made my experience a lot easier. He is always quick to respond with any questions I may have, especially when everything feels so uncertain in a time of divorce. He made me feel at ease with my situation. I would recommend Sami to anyone in need of a family law attorney. He is professional, reliable and affordable. Thank you again Sami!

This review is really long over due. But I feel like I should write it in order to help others in search for a good attorney, just like I was 2 years ago. Sami is a great attorney, very knowledgable, professional, honest and efficient. He won't sugar coat or give you just the unswear you want to hear, but he is honest and compassionate. He empathizes with his clients. Divorcing was the hardest experience in my life. It was a difficult divorce and Sami was able to make it less stressful with his knowledge and personality. He has a way to calm things down. While lots of attorneys out there will try to escalate the conflicts in order to make more money, Sami will try to calm things down in order to solve the conflicts easier. Thank you Sami.

I would recommend him to anyone looking for a family law attorney. He is one of a kind. He actually cares about his clients. He is really responsive and helpful. He is not like the other lawyers out there who only cares about the money. Sami will treat you like a friend and will fight for you to get the best outcome you can get.

I would recommend Sami to everyone! He has truly picked his calling in life... He does not charge any extra fees, he is very affordable and is the most honest upfront lawyer anyone could ask for. I used Sami for a custody case and left more than satisfied with the outcome. With his pleasant demeanor and confidence in the court room; gave me a sense of ease in a difficult situation. Thank you again Sami!!!! :)

Helpful with the questions I had regarding divorce. But, $3,000 up front is a bit more than what I was expecting considering we're in the middle of a pandemic

I've been with Men's Legal Center for years. My ex-wife has taken me to court multiple times throughout the years since our divorce. My first attorney unfortunately past away but he was awesome. Fast forward to 2020 and the law firm isn't the same. I 4 trials this year alone. Two of them I was trying to change visitation. Out of all 4 trials, Men's Legal Center did not win away! My child support over quadrupled. Visitation didn't change. And my ex-wife's lawyers were ruthless & made me look extremely bad in the courts eyes. Men Legal Center made my situation why worse. Stay clear of Men's Legal Center. They were a great law firm, they were.

I found this website while searching for someone who could provide guidance for my son on a pending divorce.... I felt lost in my google search, but as I looked at the Mens Legal Center, i focused on the reviews of individuals... some were not flattering, but the name Francisco Berata consistently revealed excellent comments.. so, I took a chance and called the office and left a message for him... he called me back! He talked at length with me as I shared background on my son's situation and challenges ( plenty of them). Francisco was polite, understanding, knowledgeable and willing to invite my son in for a free consultation to hear his needs and to guide him to next steps... THANK you, Francisco, for your patience and compassion... Awesome!!

Mens Legal Firm plays this game where they pass you around the firm to different lawyers and ask for court hearings to be rescheduled to extend the your service. Meanwhile your bill is going up. I am Active Duty Navy. While deployed to Japan there wasn't much I can do with the courts from overseas so I hired Mens Legal Service to help me and they passed me around and rescheduled court dates for 4 years. I 100% do not recommend this place. I never write reviews. My service was so bad I had to take the time out to warm others to go some place else. I got divorced 4 years ago and I am still paying, actually let me rephrase that, I am still getting charged. I argue and beg with my representation to file motions to the court, to get answers from child support services and no one got back to me. I divorced my wife, gave her the marital assets, custody, alimony and child support. All I ask for was visitation with my children. All I ever wanted was for the visitation agreement to be modified. THAT'S IT! Mens Legal Firm plays this game where they pass you around the firm to different lawyers and ask for court hearings to be rescheduled to extend the your service. Meanwhile your bill is going up. The first lawyer their died, then the next 2 lawyers quit. Even the paralegal or secretary or what ever there title is quit. Each time someone quit or pass my case around I would fill the next person in on the situation and the current representation would start from the beginning and get no where. My ex-wife is very uncooperative so what I wanted was a motion to have the judge decide on visitation. The lawyers argued with me and told me they would try to call my ex and email her and work it out. They all got no where and charged me for the phone calls and emails. I screamed that I didn't want them to talk to my ex and they did not listen. Be prepared to be played with and charged.

I knew full well, as a military father in a divorce case, in CALIFORNIA, was going to get a raw deal by their liberal judges. But towards the end of my case my hired attorney left their firm and left me with an attorney who had no idea what he was doing. He even leaned over and whispering, asked..."you were in the navy right?" I could have saved a retainer fee and better represented myself. Fix this Men's Legal Center so my future military members do not have to go through what I had to endure. Regards, Mark Aid

This firm is incredible! From the front desk staff to the attorneys, everyone makes you feel right at home in your most troubling times. In particular, my interactions with attorney Leo Arzumanyan have been fantastic. Leo is attentive, responsive and highly motivated. Above all else, Leo has a knack for impeccable legal writing. If you’re in need of attorneys who will dedicate their time to winning, I strongly recommend hiring the law firm of Antonyan Miranda.

I needed some legal advice and got a recommendation to call Ramona (Tumber). She was attentive and patient and her advice was informed and clear. I couldn't understand all of the options I had accessible to me and she laid everything out in a way even I could understand. A fantastic experience even if the call was for something less than ideal.

I reached out to Concierge Attorney Ramona Tumber for some help on a personal legal matter. She was so helpful and she's got such a positive can-do attitude. She asked me specific questions that expanded my thinking and led to other options for addressing my problem. I recommend her for anyone needing some help with personal/family related legal advice.

Ramona K. Tumber Esq. Is fantastic to work with. Legal family issues are difficult. Ramona listens and then brings her professional knowledge and energetic follow through to bear in resolving your issues promptly and effectively. I recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney with integrity.

Alicia is PHENOMENAL! She was very quick to take my call and get me the help I needed. She is very friendly and professional. I highly recommend giving this firm a call. Their team is very knowledgeable.

The firm is the definition of excellence. My case was handled professionally, aggressively, and with compassion. I am extremely grateful, thanks especially to Megan Vito!

I worked with Lauren Fair and her staff for over a year and a half. The entire time they were responsive, professional, honest and very informative. Lauren walked me through the entire process step by step. When a court date or decision needed to be made. She was honest and prepared me for all the scenarios. Her knowledge and commitment to her work shows. I always received timely responses from her and all staff members. I can not thank them enough for all they did for me. I am now divorced and was granted an out of state move away. I highly recommend Lauren Fair. She truly cares about her clients and their best interest.

Lindsay is the best attorney in San Diego very passionate about her job. Works very well goes above and beyond. If you want the best she is the person to go to.

It's a great thing that I have called Fair Cadora first. I didn't expect them to be this good. They are very friendly and professional. Excellent communication, we had the most ideal outcome. Thank you, you are the best.

Kevin and team are highly motivated and passionate about what they do. Family law & divorce situations can be tiring and very stressful for all parties involved. The level of care and compassion they put into each individual case is bar none and truly what sets them apart. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. If you or a family member have been contemplating divorce, I highly recommend reaching out to Kevin to see what he’s able to do for you.

I absolutely recommend Yvonne Rizzo for family legal services!! With an already burdening schedule, I was in and out of court with my children's mother consistently. Repeated motions for ridiculousness. My attempt was to be reasonable. However, after a completely false narrative and even a restraining order I felt as the court would believe anything they were told. After contacting Yvonne, I was not only relieved to have her caring and professional legal services on my side, I was impressed by the ability to finally be stress free and focus on my schedule, knowing I had yet another court date. I am thankful for the time, effort, and concern Yvonne put into my case. After a complete success in court, I cannot thank Yvonne enough. I not only recommend Yvonne, I have no doubt that for any future matters with my divorce, I'll simply call my attorney. Thanks Yvonne!!

Ms. Rizzo provided excellent legal services for our family. From the first meeting you know that you are in competent and caring hands. Her responsiveness to phone calls and emails instills great confidence. No one seeks legal advice lightly. We received expert legal advice. I recommend her services without reservation.

She is an awesome Father Advocate lawyer. Hard working very dedicated and honest Attorney.

Yvonne Rizzo is always available to talk to about my case. She maintains the highest level of professionalism and cares deeply about her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a family law attorney.

I highly recommend Yvonne Rizzo Family Law Attorney to anyone not being treated fairly in the courtroom and in need of Legal Representation. I have been going through family law for a year now with 9 months of no legal representation. Eventhough I was no threat to my child and the mother is an alcoholic with prior DUI's just got arrested for a DUI, the court granted her full sole and physical custody and for me 10% visitation with 0% sole legal or physical custody. For the first 9 months I was constantly getting mistreated in the courtroom eventhough there were hard evidence of proof and proof of lies against the opposing party due to a bias judge. Out of the 9 months the mother of my child withheld my daughter from me for 5 months. During the 5 months I filed 3 ex-parte hearings due to visitation violation of court orders and safety concerns with proof and still got dismissed, 1 hearing was cancelled and not even heard by the judge stating it's " Not an emergency". Since i hired Atty. Rizzo, not only was I able to be heard without being turned away but she was able to get me visitations with my daughter again after 5 months but with more time and days with overnights too. I now have 35% visitation with 4-5 days every week with my daughter and looks to get better from here on. Thank you Mrs. Rizzo.

Attorney, Maria Taylor, has a kind, compassionate heart along with honesty, integrity, etiquette, knowledge, intelligence, the power to persuade impossible and unpredictable! By working with her, I shortly noticed even more treasures of her professionalism along with most magnificent personality! Ms. Taylor has done what seems impossible during my divorce! She was with me all the way in the process going thousand extra miles. She will WIN your case, your heart and protect your future!

I have consulted with Maria Taylor during some of the most stressful circumstances in my life and she was really an amazing resource. Not only was she very knowledgeable and professional, but her calm and empathetic demeanor gave me much needed emotional support at the time it was most needed. At the same time Maria was always very forthright and honest about what I could expect and told me the truth even when it may not have been exactly what I wanted to hear. If I have any family law issues in the future, I'll definitely go back to her.

I've worked with Maria for years. She's probably the most skilled and zealous family law attorney I've encountered. I've repeatedly seen her go above and beyond for her clients to put them in the best situation possible. Nobody ever wants a divorce, but if you need one, you couldn't ask for a better lawyer to help you through it.

Maria Taylor goes above and beyond! My case was tough, contentious, and the opposing party did everything they could to drag it out as long as possible. That is when you need an attorney with experience and professionalism. Maria saw through their tricks and she fought like a barracuda, bringing a swifter and very favourable resolution for me. Thanks to her recognizing inconsistencies and unethical procedures on their part, she also won me partial attorney fees and a sweet extra offer during mediation. I also want to mention her promptness in returning emails and phone calls – I never for a moment felt alone in this. I most highly recommend her!

Professional and helpful. I would recommend Maria Taylor, you wont regret it.

I want to thank Siobhan Curley for helping me settle an issue literally over night. She stepped in when I needed support and walked me through the steps I needed to take to remedy an issue. She was kind, clear, and very knowledgeable about the law. After we met, I completed the steps she told me to take and the issue was resolved the very next morning! I can't thank her enough. She is such an intelligent and supportive human being. Immediately after we spoke, I felt calmer and more in control of the situation. Please reach out to her if you need legal advice, she is incredible!

Working with Michael S. Steiner at Goldberg Jones made my life a lot easier while navigating through the difficult waters of a very complicated and challenging divorce. Michael is not only a great professional he also has a personal touch that was very much appreciated throughout this ordeal. I strongly recommend Michael should you face marital separation.

Michael Steiner is a phenomenal attorney. He was very responsive and proactive throughout my divorce process. Frequent updates ensured I always stayed informed and there was never a lull in communication. The process was a bit drawn out becuase of covid but Attorney Steiner is durable and educated. Thank you again for the guidance and great results.

I want to thank Goldberg Jones for their help with my situation, especially Michael S. Steiner, Esq. he is a down to earth guy, professional and outstanding at his job, he helped me and guided me through the whole process. Guys, I really recommend them, they are in our corner and not only helping but defending us!! Thank you very much Michael S. Steiner, Esq. for all your help and guidance!!

DO NOT USE THESE GUYS! I initially spoke to Zephyr Hill who agreed to be my attorney. However, when he sent me the retainer agreement he switched me without notice to Michael Steiner- WHO IS A HORRIBLE ATTORNEY! I should have dropped them then. Basically Steiner would respond to emails and phone calls sporadically at best and when you speak to him he seems to have his mind elsewhere. The last straw was when he agreed to file an ex parte on my behalf, however, after I followed up with him days later he tells me " I decided not to file it." No explanation for not communicating this to me. I will be filing a complaint with the state bar. VERY DISAPPOINTED!

I had great expectations for Ben and his crew, but what I got was subpar legal representation to say the least.. Sons mom filed a move away request out of the blue, and at first I was even contemplating whether, or not to even hire an attorney,because her allegations were so farcical, over the top, completely untrue, unfounded, and unbelievable. but with so much at stake I decided I would play it safe, and just pay the professionals. From the start I had questions about what was going on with my case, Ben, and his crew, are good at making invoices , and running up the bill, but they will not work for you. During the months leading up to the,” $8000 dollar train wreck”. I was never prompted for evidence, I was never called I had to voluntarily scan, and PDF evidence over to his office on my own, sometimes I would get a confirmation email, other times I would not. I asked if I could bring my emails, pictures, and text messages in for them to scan, and build my case file, but they fully took advantage of the COVID-19 restrictions saying, “ they weren’t allowing people personal visits into the office, because of the COVID”. This was another way they could focus on bringing in new retainer fees, and focus on the money aspect of it, opposed to the defense, and actual representation aspect of it. Guys do not hire these people, they will loose your case, you have been warned. On the day of the evidentiary hearing, evidence linking mom to illicit activities, gambling, and prescription drug abuse, was not presented. In addition threats made to me by other parties on moms side, like death threats, threats to come to my house, pictures of new gun purchases, and people holding them,that were sent to me, were not presented at the hearing. Upon cross examining me, Ben repeatedly asked me questions related to corporal punishment of my son, and stepson, the purpose of which, I still have not figured out. In the end the Judge ruled capriciously , chopping up family code section “ 3040” , while Ben just sat there like a deer in the headlights. I lost the half custody of my son, to a person with a history of bad child parenting, with a history of violent convicted felons, and drug addicts in the home. My exhibit list was virtually non existent, very few documents, half irrelevant, the other half of the exhibits indiscernible. Instead of quickly discrediting mom, and mounting a solid defense, against, a "I said so therefore, it must be allegation", Ben was unprepared, and made us both look bad. If O.J. Simpson was found not guilty again for another murder, it would not be more egregious, it could not be anymore off base than the train wreck that Ben, and his “ wrecking crew”, managed to create for me. Unbelievably there is more, In the end I asked them, “ to file a substitution of attorney”, with the court so that I could get get their incompetent rear ends off my case, and of course they dragged their feet for another two weeks, and I was not able to file a “peremptory challenge” in time, to ask for a new judge for my upcoming motions. I was very nice, and did not bother them, while they were on my case, in fact, this is the first time I have expressed my frustration with them They did not put the work in that they billed me for, and therefore, Ben was unprepared for what should have been an easy case, a case that was textbook example of what female on male domestic violence looks like. "I said so, so therefore it must be evidence". I paid $8000 dollars,and it made my problem much.much worse. Horrible job!

Embry Family Law jumped in when my regular attorney was not available (due to a conflict in schedule), and handled my Ex Parte matter perfectly. I know the attorneys and staff personally, and I see how diligent they are working for their clients, trying to provide the best possible outcome, every single day.

I used Embry Family Law for a child custody/support case... couldn't have asked for a better team to handle my legal issues! Ben and Nicholas worked on my case over a year due to the pandemic shutting down the court system. Regardless of what was happening, they continued to push forward till they were able to resolve my case. I will continue to use Embry Family Law for future family legal issues and highly recommend everyone do so as well!

Working with Ben Embry was great. He's very professional, responsive, and was always available to answer any questions I had. His team is also amazing and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I would recommend Embry Family Law to anyone!

This firm represented the other party yet made me feel just as important when it came to my questions! The paralegal Nicholas was beyond helpful! I’m so thankful to have worked with this amazing firm. They made the divorce process painless! Thank you!

Fantastic attorney! Well prepared for court and incredibly competent and persuasive. Cassandra is calm in her approach and very caring towards her clients. Her knowledge of the law carries over Into the courtroom giving the client the confidence that she is doing EVERYTHING possible to win the case. In my circumstance it was a slam dunk! Would chose Cassandra again and again.

Cassandra Hearn represented me in a particularly acrimonious divorce and DV case. She was always professional and well-prepared for our many court appearances. Cassandra communicates well and often, and is clear, concise, and realistic with information and expectations. Divorce is extremely difficult, but having an attorney who has integrity, and is kind, intelligent, and knowledgeable makes it bearable.

Cassandra and her team have assisted me with family matters over the past few years. She was referred to me by a friend and I in turn have referred her to numerous individuals facing custody issues or other family issues. She is responsive, detail-oriented, and very honest when it comes to managing expectations regarding potential court decisions. She has gone to court twice on my behalf and both times I could not have been happier with her level of preparation and professionalism. I continue to consult her whenever issues arise. 10/10 recommend.

Stay away from Ms. Hearn unless you want incompetent representation and someone who only cares about cashing your checks. She "represented" a close friend in a custody dispute her with ex-husband. I am aware of everything she did and didn't do during the time she represented my friend as I was left to help clean up some of the mess. Ms Hearn failed to communicate with or respond to my friend repeatedly, failed to timely file important documents, claimed she served her adversary on dates when she never did, and failed to write letters to opposing counsel after repeated requests to do so. One of the letters she did write had to be completely rewritten because it looked like it was written by a third grader. My friend was forced to hire another local attorney and now she is severely prejudiced because of Ms. Hearn's gross ineffective assistance. The absolute ONLY thing she cares about is getting paid. I'd search for another attorney in the area if you need help because Ms. Hearn is not the answer you are looking for.

The most honest, organized, & professional attorney with whom I’ve ever had the opportunity to work. Having Cassandra on my side has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Thank you, Cassandra for your informed advice & excellent work!

Highly recommend the team of professionals at Primus. I'm an active duty service member and they worked hard and were very realistic and attentive to my case. I got my kids back after the navy sent me away and my ex went to mork on me. Definitely worth every penny and I was able to win my case all due to the support and work my lawyer and her paralegal i won't name drop them but they rock. I would Absolutely recommend them to anyone going the a divorce or custody battle.

Kimberly is very professional and hard working. I didn’t think I would have a chance of getting my daughter back. Kimberly fought hard. She is always responsive and caring. She was always aggressive and strong in the court. I was very lucky to have her fight by my side. I will never forget her. I followed Kimberly from her previous firm. I made sure to have Kimberly. I was impressed and comfortable with her. The case ended well. I have been living my happiest days alongside my daughter. Thank you Kimberly!

Highly recommend Primus Family Law group! They were patient with my lack of knowledge and worked with me to achieve expected results. Kimberly Soule Esq. was a pleasure to work with and an absolute pro. Hopefully will not need legal guidance in the future, but if I do, they will be the first call.

Worst law firm I have ever dealt with! Represented my daughter for two ten minute hearings. Came totally unprepared, did not defend my daughters position at all! Paid $4000 for the twenty minutes of representation and fired them! Then they sent my daughter a $2500 bill on top of that. Insane!

Bonnie is awesome. She came highly recommended and I was impressed with her divorce podcast. Bonnie explained every step of the process and answered all my questions. Bonnie cares about her clients. She is experienced and very knowledgeable on the law. Bonnie and the Primus Family Law staff worked to finalize everything for me, easily and speedily.

Is not worth it.you would gr any helpers.just waste your money and time .No body care about your case. Find some where else. But is not here. You will like me . Spend a lot money ????????. Is nothing worth it.you will lose you case and your Money's.

I highly recommend Tara Yelman and her team. I used Yelman & Associates in my divorce. She was ethical, provided outstanding advice through this trying time, and I found her billing to be transparent and highly efficient. I found her to always be better prepared than her opposing counsel. She was always the one to recommend creative ways to resolve negotiation sticking points. And her knowledge of the law and judicial procedure in court was outstanding -- helping to shorten the process and work with me and my ex to find solutions that worked for both of us. Even after the proceedings, she has provided ongoing guidance for how to manage the issues that pop up post divorce -- which has been crucial in helping my family move on from the process. Again, I highly recommend.

Hands down all the way for Tara Yelman. She was g-d sent. A true attorney who wants the best for their client. I've met with other lawyers prior to retaining her. There are a lot of attorneys who are just there for your money and don't want to work hard including after hours, holidays, weekends. They just want to settle and take the easy way out. Unlike, Tara she put her 110% into your case and her expert advice is incredible. She's worth every PENNY! She works nights, weekends and even holidays if there is something serious. Remember folks, stuff happens when its after "office hours" or you get served for an Emergency hearing on Friday at 4 pm to appear in court on Monday or Tuesday morning. You have to be ready for whatever comes your way! Tara ,you are the best including your right hand Geoff and others!!

I went through a "very challenging" divorce with 4 children that kept me in court for a decade on and off. I used another firm with two different lawyers and was able to measure how effective they were as compared with Sara @ Yelman. Without hesitation, I can say Sara and her team were twice as effective at half the cost. I cannot begin to express the complexity of my situation, but it was challenging given the circumstances. Unfortunately I became fairly experienced at the process, language and arguments used in my cases over the past 10 years. I've seen the quality of the arguments made on my behalf and Sara always had clear thoughts and rational behavior with opposing counsel and the court. The team at Yelman did great work. Most important in this process is the cost. Clients are often driven apart by their lawyers, which benefits only the firms involved. Trust me -- I experienced this before Yelman, as did my ex. Sara did not inflame for the benefit of further court actions (and therefore fees). She protected me as a client but was always rational about the options presented to me concerning my decisions. Moving to Yelman over the past 4 years was the best financial choice I made over this extraordinarily challenging phase of my life. I am so grateful for their representation and guidance, and I highly recommend them for complex family law representation.

    I highly recommend Tara Yelman and her team. I used Yelman & Associates in my divorce. She was ethical, provided outstanding advice through this trying time, and I found her billing to be transparent and highly efficient. I found her to always be better prepared than her opposing counsel. She was always the one to recommend creative ways to resolve negotiation sticking points. And her knowledge of the law and judicial procedure in court was outstanding -- helping to shorten the process and work with me and my ex to find solutions that worked for both of us. Even after the proceedings, she has provided ongoing guidance for how to manage the issues that pop up post divorce -- which has been crucial in helping my family move on from the process. Again, I highly recommend.

    Hands down all the way for Tara Yelman. She was g-d sent. A true attorney who wants the best for their client. I've met with other lawyers prior to retaining her.
