Highly Recommended Bankruptcy Lawyer!…read more I was incredibly stressed and overwhelmed about my financial situation, but Mike made the entire bankruptcy process clear, manageable, and much less intimidating. From our first consultation, he was professional, knowledgeable, and non-judgmental. He explained every step, answered all my questions with patience, and guided me through every detail of the filing process including the repair of my credit. His communication was prompt and reliable, and I always felt like I had someone in my corner. Thanks to Michael J. Varisco, I now have a fresh start and a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. If you're considering bankruptcy and don't know where to turn, I highly recommend Mike. He truly cares about his clients and know what he's doing.

I hired Andre Ausseresses' law office about a year and a half ago. I had him on retainer for quite…read moresome time for a case where my son was taken from me after me and my ex broke up. My son who is very bonded with me. He's very confident and represents aggressively in the court room. I had to end my retainer with him only because money got very tight. But he seems to take his job as an attorney seriously, unlike some attorneys out there that are simply going through the motions and are not as passionate in court. He has an intellectual and confident personality when he's live in court which I like about him. One thing that I will always be grateful for is that he was able to fight for me in court on one of the hearings and thanks to him and his pleading to the judge, I was granted Presumed Father status for my son who is not biologically mine. Which was a HUGE stepping stone in this custody battle.

I was unexpectedly served with an ex parte Domestic Violence Restraining Order and a dissolution of…read moremarriage filing. I strongly denied the allegations of domestic violence, and at the time my spouse was requesting 100% custody of our two children with no visitation for me. It was one of the most difficult and stressful periods of my life. Navid Moshtael helped guide me through the entire process. My spouse was extremely difficult throughout the case, which made an already complicated situation even more challenging. Despite that, Navid was able to navigate the conflict, stay focused on the bigger picture, and continue moving the case toward the outcome we had discussed from the beginning. Navid was very clear about his strategy, what he believed was realistic, and how he planned to approach both the court proceedings and negotiations. When it mattered most, he took control in the courtroom. He was confident, prepared, direct, and strategic. Ultimately, the DV restraining order was dropped, I obtained joint custody, and most importantly, I was able to see my children again. Despite all of the obstacles and difficult negotiations along the way, we ended up exactly where Navid had planned for us to end up. My advice to anyone working with Navid is to trust the process and stick with him through the end. There may be moments when things feel uncertain, especially in a highly contentious case, but Navid had a plan and executed it. He delivered the result he told me he was working toward. I am extremely grateful for what he did for me and my family and would highly recommend him to anyone dealing with a difficult family law or custody matter.

I've been working specifically with Reza Bayat and his team, and my experience so far has been…read moreexcellent. Family law is difficult, emotional, and expensive, and this firm is certainly not inexpensive. But good legal representation is important, and I've found Reza's team to be responsive, organized, and genuinely supportive during some very challenging situations with my ex. When something difficult happens, the team responds quickly. Reza personally calls to make sure I have clear direction on how to proceed, but he also takes the time to make sure I'm doing well. What I especially appreciate about him is his demeanor. He remains calm and factual and has never given me a "pep talk" or tried to sell me unrealistic expectations. He gives me straightforward guidance while still showing genuine warmth and care. I also appreciate the accuracy and transparency of the billing. The team documents the time worked carefully, which is particularly important when legal fees are significant. I have not yet had the opportunity to see this team represent me during a court hearing, so I can't fairly review that aspect of their work yet. My five stars are based on my experience with them so far: their responsiveness, guidance, professionalism, communication, and the support they have provided when circumstances became especially challenging. Reza and his team have made me feel supported not only as a client, but as a single mom navigating some pretty darn "fun" times... the Six Flags roller-coaster kind of fun. So far, I truly couldn't have asked for a better team.

UPDATE: 9/25/25 I am already back at court to do what my…read moreattorney failed to do. I had a mediation 8/4/25, and he ghosted me (see photos). Before my mediation and trial in May, he also ghosted me (still charged me though), and then told me it will look bad in front of the judge if I go without him. Most unbelievably, he retaliated against my honest yelp review and put it in an email (see photos). I signed the substitution of attorney (terminating services) on 8/18/25 (see attached), immediately after the trail, because this attorney did not even ensure the two main things I wanted, pick-up/drop-off time listed on the custody agreement and to use the Talking Parents app, were added to the custody agreement. So literally, he did nothing but show me he has a chip on his shoulder about females. I received a bill dated 8/30/25 that Mr. Khan texted was the final bill at $1,545.90. Nearly one month after I signed the substitution of attorney (and coincidently right after he commented on my Yelp review), I suddenly have a second final invoice for over $6,000 with a date of 9/16/25. Suffice it to say I reported him to the Bar Association and Yelp. I stand by my 5-star initial review of the intake and consult; his office staff were amazing! This was such an experience that I almost forgot a crucial detail. See the pictures from our communication on the app he requests his customers to use. I sent him my custody modification 5/12/25 via the app and email, and he used the old form from 02/2024 and gave that one to my ex and his staff! Do you want to guess if he billed me for it? He sure did-twice! I outlined these in yellow and black. He tried to fix his mistake days before my trial, so I prepared my own binder, to which he replied the judge would be annoyed with. He also charged me $270.00 and listed: Prepared binder for trial. Run from this man. I just keep reporting his comments to Yelp because he is calling me a liar for giving an honest review with evidence. 9/26/25: Thank you yelp support, at least he changed his comments.

If you are in need of a divorce attorney, stop looking through reviews and call Eric D. Mackey! He…read morejust finalized my case and I cannot say enough good things about him. From the start, he truly made me feel like he was really on my side and supporting me. (I interviewed several other lawyers too). He is very professional and has a good relationship with judges, other attorneys, etc. He is very caring but is a shark when he needs to be a shark. He got my case settled with everything I requested. And as an added bonus, he is very honest! Whereas most attorneys blow through your retainer and fees in days or weeks, he kept careful and very fair accounting of everything and I even got a refund check at the end of his services. 1000% recommended!!!!

Hiring Eric was one of the best decisions I made during a very overwhelming custody case…read more He consistently made me feel supported and informed, and I truly trusted that he had both my son's and my best interests at heart. His communication and attention to detail helped ease a lot of anxiety during an incredibly stressful time. His responses were always timely, either the same day or the following business day, and he was consistently willing to provide thoughtful feedback and guidance through conflict. His recommendations were realistic and grounded, without giving false hope. My case spanned over a year, and throughout that time Eric was always well-informed on my case and its history. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated, reliable, and compassionate attorney!

I don't write many reviews, but Will definitely earned this one. I had a really long, complicated…read morecivil harassment restraining order case involving a neighbor, and there were honestly times I wondered if it would ever end. From the beginning Will was honest with me. He never told me what I wanted to hear, he told me what I needed to hear. He explained the law, laid out the options, and always had a plan. Every time we walked into court he was prepared. You could tell everyone there knew him and respected him, from the court staff to the other attorneys. That gave me a lot of confidence when things got stressful. What impressed me the most was that he actually cared. I never felt like I was just another client. This wasn't just about winning a case, it was about protecting my family and getting our peace back. He fought hard every hearing and never let up, even after the case dragged on way longer than anyone expected. There were plenty of moments where it would've been easy to just go through the motions, but thats not how Will practices. When it was time to argue our case he was an absolute beast in the courtroom and wasn't going to let someone keep harassing my family without putting up a fight. In the end we got the restraining order we were hoping for, and I honestly don't think that happens without him. If youre looking for an attorney for a civil harassment restraining order, neighbor harassment, or just someone who will actually fight for you, I'd hire Will again in a heartbeat. He's honest, prepared, cares about his clients, and he's exactly who you want standing next to you when things get difficult.

Presence. Persistence. Professionalism…read more When I found myself in the throes of a wicked divorce, I felt helpless and had no idea what to do. I was up against an unreasonable opponent who had no problem stooping to low levels, backed by an army of cheerleaders and sycophants. With what felt like impending insurmountable defeat, I started shopping around for help. In comes Pouya. Presence: Should you find yourself in the courtroom, this is the guy you want next to you on the bench. He spares the theatrics and comes prepared with facts and case studies. Rather than reduce his talent to mud slinging and soap opera drama, Pouya stands tall with confidence in the arguments prepared. The language he uses is accurate and concise, spoken with the authority of an attorney who is knowledgeable. Pouya dresses well and makes sure that his materials are organized. The man oozes confidence and is a courtroom force for sure! Persistence: Nothing can sway Pouya. Knowing what the marching orders were, he did not back down to other bullies - in or out of the courtroom. Pouya stays on top of deadlines, follows up with opposing counsel, and sees the case from a logical perspective. Using a simple combo of logic and calmness, responses to opposing counsel were always sound and airtight. There was never an instance I thought we would falter. Professionalism: At the end of the day, it takes more than being a bulldog with a loud bark to succeed and this is where Pouya shines. From inception of the case to its completion, I nearly forgot that I wasn't Pouya's only client, he was that attentive. As an inexperienced client, of course I'd have a litany of questions and concerns. It was no challenge for Pouya to put them all to rest, even the seemingly stupid questions. Although the lawyer-client boundary was clear and professional, Pouya still made sure to call me out on my own bs and advise when I may or may not have an unreasonable expectation. This kind of attention kept us on track to a very successful outcome. His response times are very quick, his knowledge in his craft is very far reaching, and he carries himself as any self-respecting lawyer should. Sure, I had a lot of honesty and integrity to help my case. I kept great records and had mountains of evidence at the ready. One thing I've learned from this process is that NONE OF THAT MATTERS without the right representation. There is no doubt in my mind that the successful (and favorable!) closure of my divorce was a direct result of Pouya's intervention. With the greatest respect, I would hope to never need him again. But if the need arises, Nowzaree Law is my first pick, without hesitation. Shout out to his phenomenal staff as well. You're not just getting one lawyer, you're getting a well experienced team. Francine and Jill have been an absolute delight to work with throughout the process.

Jennifer made this process so much easier and we were able to get the justice and peace that we needed to go on with our lives and heal. I plan to keep this firm on retainer should my child need advice or any other form of advocacy in the future. Jennifer is so compassionate, kind and fair. We consider her like family now and will be forever grateful to her.
