I cannot express how grateful I am for Kia Law Firm and the outcome of my case. Kia represented me…read morein a case involving two felony charges, and after an incredibly stressful and overwhelming year and a half, I was approved for a diversion program. This case took a significant emotional toll on me. For a year and a half, I lived with the uncertainty of what the outcome might be. Because my case involved a police officer, I went into the process with very little hope of achieving a favorable result. I understood the challenges involved, which makes the outcome that much more meaningful to me. Kia is an exceptionally strong and capable attorney. His knowledge, confidence, and approach to my case left me genuinely impressed. He delivered results that exceeded my expectations, and I truly appreciate the work it took to get there. Throughout the process, I also had the pleasure of working with Alondra and Valeria, who were both wonderful. They were consistently attentive, quick to follow up, and always patient when answering my many questions. Their communication was excellent, and I never felt overlooked or left wondering what was happening with my case. What stood out to me most was the attention to detail and teamwork. Everyone seemed genuinely invested in my case, and I believe that level of diligence played a significant role in how smoothly everything was handled. After a year and a half of carrying the stress and uncertainty of this case, finally receiving such a positive outcome has been an enormous relief. I'm incredibly impressed with Kia's representation and grateful to the entire team for their professionalism, dedication, and care. I highly recommend Kia Law Firm, especially to anyone facing serious charges who needs an attorney capable of handling a challenging case with confidence and determination.

He didn't just handle my case he truly cared about my future and what was at stake. Because of his dedication, persistence, and skill, I avoided a prison sentence and was given the opportunity to reunite with my children and raise them. This isn't just a legal win, it's a life-changing outcome for me and my family. If you are looking for an attorney who will fight for you like your life depends on it, who is honest, compassionate, and relentless in the courtroom, Steve is the one you want in your corner. I will forever be grateful.

It turned out to be one of the best decisions I could have made. Joey Felbab took my case on and immediately had thought of a few different angles that no other attorney has thought of. Impressive! I also appreciate his ability to put actual "work" into the case. I was impressed each time he spoke in the court room, remembering case details, dates, and statutes. He really does put in a lot of effort and trys to examine every possible angle. A big part of being a good attorney is also being likeable. He was able to be seen, be heard, and to communicate his ideas without ever coming off as arrogant. Professionalism and transparent communication across the board. I wholeheartedly recommend Joey and this law firm for anyone who wants to be sure their case has the best outcome. Truly a miracle worker and lifesaver.

My case wasn't resolved they kept telling me that they didn't want to keep bugging the D.A regarding charges that were not filed on my case because they didn't want to bring attention to my name but after terminating this office I received an itemized break down of charges which showed continual contact between the lawyers office and D.A despite him telling me the opposite. Anyways I didn't feel good from jump after having a free eval in office with a guy named Joseph which i explained what happened and the guy makes a smart remark regarding some papers that I showed him where he made mention to me, go on with that! So he was against me from the start. And then I have a second appointment this time with Phil where I came to the office with about $8500 and dropped on the desk and retained his service. And upon looking at my charges he seem disgusted like I really committed the crime. So, I made the mistake in trusting these guys and this office because I was blind sided by all the good things they say on their website. So be careful when choosing attorneys because not all of them have your best interest at hand. Mind you this is the 2nd attorney ive fired because they lie. Simple.

My review is a little late since my case with Empire Law almost 2 summers ago. But alas, I am a…read moreprocrastinator to a fault but here it is: I needed help with my citizenship case and I was very nervous about the whole process. With my record, I was worried about getting my application denied or worse. As an immigrant, that "worse" scenario can be life altering. I've mentioned I'm a procrastinator, well, it's worse when I'm anxious about something so I put it off even more. Jonathan urged and finally convinced me to go through with it and so I did. He reassured me throughout the entire process that everything would work out just fine and he was not wrong! Not only did he reassure me, he prepped me for my interview and although he wasn't able to go with me the day of my interview (court thing came up) he did send someone else who was just as reassuring and capable. I was finally in the interview room with the immigration agent and it went so smoothly it ended up being one of the most positive experiences of my life. Part of it was the preparation beforehand and another aspect was the immigration agent, who was very empathetic to my case. After a lifetime of having "immigration law" on my mind constantly, I am now an American Citizen. Overall, to anyone reading this wondering if you should proceed with Empire Law, I say YES. Whether it's Jonathan directly, or someone else on his team, I know that whoever he hand selects he does so for good reason and you will be met with someone who is empathetic, knowledgeable and capable.

Spiritually & metaphorically I believe Dennis Moore was a fearfully made (*scary*) legal combination of Sun Tzu, Hannibal at Battle of Cannae, Washington at the Battles of Trenton & Princeton, & Ace Ventura Pet Detective warrior in crushing in this truth justice. A highly skilled & salted legal tool doing his part in executing God's right hand of justice in (feign & envelop etc..) these two D.V.R.O case victories. I can imagine it wouldn't be an easy over confident day for anyone to have to face off with him in the practice, even for a heavily seasoned grizzled veteran. Over confidence & arrogance (*pride*) can be used to his advantage. To those who hide unfruitful works in the dark believing the authorities to be too naive (short sighted more like far sighted) to catch on, let this be a wake up call. I'm glad I can see more of law enforcement & judicial professionals I haven't seen, and glad I am finally some what vindicated of shame as I have done my best to walk uprightly after the things of the Spirit, not perfectly by any means, but constantly keeping up with repentance onto good works, his grace, faith, mercy, & truth...etc. (Matthew 3:8) for a long time. I have often dreamed/longed for the vindication God promises to those who trust Him patiently enduring persecution. Those trying to keep my name unmercifully buried in the propaganda (* MOST likely ALL ungodly tongued lies*) dirt without true merit, but as the Word promises to those loyal (with character/integrity to God first over reputation with people) & patient in it: God's Holy Word never comes back void, especially where it was surely sent! Born Again Believers have this saying for when Satan our adversary/foe uses people, things, and circumstances to try and bury us, and this is how it goes with a little extra by me. "Satan tried/tries to bury (kill, steal or destroy) us in dirt, but he didn't know we are/is/will be a seed that's gonna sprout or already a plant or tree he is forcing to grow deeper roots. And all the evil dirt meant to destroy us is/was just fertilizer & tilling for our enhanced development & purpose". According to the Bible, this valleys future looks good with justice being carried out as the Lord says it should be. I'm glad I didn't give up with throwing in the towel as I surely wanted too all those many countless gaslight, accused, & in many ways victimized days, nights, and years. This victory is sweeter, riper/timely, and much more appreciated than I believe I can ever fully describe/capture into/onto proper worded justice. But: that (***Psalms 27:12 ***) day finally came! I am joyful to God it came at the skillful trained hands (**Psalms 144:1-9**) of Dennis Moore!

PLEASE DO NOT HIRE DENNIS MOORE…read more It was the worst decision of my life to hire this lawyer. It took this person 2 weeks to respond to a question and 1 month to get a simple update on my case. I called his phone, sent text messages, sent emails, and called the main office, and each time it went straight to voice mail. When he finally calls back, he will give you an attitude like I did not just pay this lawyer to work for me. Also, this lawyer throughout my case was very unprofessional and always late. He told me to meet at 10 am for my court date and he was 2 hours late. I was shocked to see how unprepared and unorganized he was. I almost lost it when he asked which case I had on the day of my court date. I usually do not leave reviews, especially bad reviews but this one I owe to everyone who might think about hiring this lawyer. It was the worst experience of my life and I do not want anyone else to go through that.

Our family went through an unimaginable nightmare that I wouldn't wish on anyone. My sister's…read moreex-boyfriend came home one night drunk and violently attacked her and our entire family. He was arrested, but days later he posted bail and was set free. We believed we had an airtight case: over 20 photos showing the injuries, a video of him admitting guilt, and statements from the children confirming the abuse. We thought the truth would prevail without the need for an attorney. We were wrong. Just three days before our family court hearing, he maliciously filed a false CPS report claiming my sister abused the children. CPS showed up without a professional sign language interpreter, despite my sister's deafness, and I had to step in to interpret. The children clearly told CPS they felt unsafe with their father and confirmed the abuse. Even though CPS wrote this in their report, in court his attorney twisted the facts, claimed I manipulated the conversation, and had the report thrown out on a technicality. Within five minutes, the judge shockingly awarded full custody to the abuser, who still had pending felony charges. In the following weeks, CPS reopened the case and we watched helplessly as the children were interrogated under their father's influence. It was the most unjust and painful experience of our lives. That's when we hired Christopher Hernandez in Riverside, thinking legal representation would save us. Unfortunately, Christopher failed us at every turn. We paid nearly $15,000 for constant frustration. He rarely answered calls, forcing me to call multiple times a day just to get any response. He juggled too many cases at once and admitted to it. Worst of all, when it came to court, he repeatedly forgot the facts of our case--facts I had thoroughly gone over with him many times. Every time we appeared before a judge, the opposing attorney ran circles around him, leaving us devastated and without real representation. It was clear he never truly cared about our family or the outcome. In what felt like our final attempt to save the children, we contacted the office at Laurel Buchanan. From the moment we spoke, Laurel's intelligence, professionalism, and genuine care were evident. She listened carefully as I explained the entire case and, within minutes, repeated back every critical detail with precision. Unlike the first attorney, she immediately identified where the court and CPS had failed and laid out a real legal strategy. Laurel showed us laws and protocols the previous attorney never even mentioned. She made it clear we had a legal path to reverse this injustice. Laurel and Wendy fought for us like no one else. Her knowledge of family law was unmatched, and she approached the case with both sharp legal skill and sincere compassion. She battled a dishonest opposing attorney and a flawed system with tireless dedication. Thanks to her and Wendy, we won. The custody order was reversed, and the children were returned to my sister. It was such an emotional victory that my sister cried--and Laurel, who had poured her heart into our case, shed tears with us. Laurel Buchanan didn't treat us like just another file; she treated us like family and fought for us as if it were her own loved ones in danger. She changed our lives. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone who needs an advocate against a broken system or a manipulative opposing party. She is brilliant, fierce, and compassionate--the very definition of what an attorney should be. Thank you Laurel, here I am a year later writing this review and I am still left for words for everything you did for us. When we thought it was almost over for us, you came to save and change our life's forever. We are forever thankful with you and Wendy, and the team. Thank you.
