I started working with Maile in October 2016. I have my own business and though I love being an…read moreentrepreneur, I really need a coach to guide me, keep me on track, and hold me accountable. Maile is all of those things. I enjoy our coaching sessions and I love how she guides me to hammer out concrete goals and the steps that I need to take to reach them. In addition, Asentiv has some great classes taught by Maile and I have learned so much. I have learned how to interact with different personality types and how to talk about my business when I introduce myself to successfully convey what I do. I am a people person and networking and getting to know people feels natural to me. It almost doesn't feel like something so fun could produce results. But it does! I have noticed a steady stream of referrals starting to happen and I love that I have a plan to help make myself successful. If you have your own business and are looking for a coach to help you increase sales and help you be more successful, I highly recommend Maile Collmer with Asentiv.

Maile is an absolute referral marketing powerhouse! I had…read morethe recent pleasure of attending her popular Room Full of Referrals workshop in Pleasant Hill, CA. She uses individual surveys and interactive activities to guide you, and the room of people with you, through the discovery process of how we interact with others, and how we prefer to be approached. This goes deeper than just finding out where you are on the sliding scale of Extrovert to Introvert. It's a discovery of where you land in your communication style, and allows great insight into how you can more effectively "scope out a room" and approach potential referrals in a way that feels natural and respectful to them. I highly recommend it!

Mr Rose is an exceptionally easy lawyer to work with and he makes every interaction feel safe and…read morecomfortable. He is a great straightforward advocate for his clients. We have dear family friends who used his services to guide the mom through an extremely acrimonious divorce process. The spouse was not only a bully but also abusive. Mr Rose carefully guided our friend through this painful journey in just 4 months after she had spent almost 2-3 years trying to get her divorce. Mr Rose is also one of the few experienced attorneys in Contra Costa County who is bilingual. I highly recommend his services.

He taught me to keep things BIFF (Brief, Informative, Friendly, Fair) and to accept that growth often requires being uncomfortable with the uncomfortable. That approach didn't just resolve our legal issues; it changed how I handle challenges. If you want someone who will respect your time, tell you the truth, and help you grow through the process, you'll be in excellent hands.

This review is for the receptionist of the law firm. My family is has a legal plan through work…read moreallows us to have consultation time with attorneys. Fishel law was one of the names provided by the plan's client service. I called to schedule an appointment. I had to leave a message the first time but decide to try my luck again a little later. I wasn't expecting to speak to the attorney right away but just wanted to provide my info and get the process going. The receptionist was rude and stand-offish. She said she was helping the lawyer with something else and haven't gotten to returning calls yet. I was thinking, "What? You're on the phone right now. All you have to do is take down my information. Takes less than 2 minutes." I asked her how soon will it be for her to call me back. "I don't know," she replied. Needless to say, I ended up calling another attorney's office. I didn't get to speak to the attorney right away, but my information was promptly taken and I was told that I'd receive a call back in 24-48 hours. Customer service. It matters.

I am beyond grateful for finding Attorney James Fishel and Paralegal Sunny DeBord…read more When I retained him, he had less than a month to get up to speed. I was extremely impressed by his ability to review a very long and complicated custody/DV case with an eagle eye for detail. He also had the ability to get the "big picture", which included the safety of me and my children. He was able to hold a solid understanding of the past, present and our future need with ease. His methodology and organization was stellar (this is a nod to Sonny as well). His strategy was solid. His demeanor in court was respectful, kind, diplomatic AND razor sharp. I'd rehire him again in a heartbeat.

This law firm will steal all of your money blatantly with no remorse. Beware!!!!…read more I was promised that my case were simple domestic violence and divorce would take $10,000-$15,000 max they started out with Miss Dost who was professional kind, caring, and attentive to the case and the billing was so minimal as time progressed in the beginning and then here comes the bait and switch the main Attorney steps in and sees that I actually have money to pay for my attorneys fees. All he did is ask me questions about my financial position and getting to know me and that is when I saw him start to go to work on me not my case. I got an email from a lady in the law firm demanding an additional $5000 so I looked at my bill and saw that Paul had reviewed my case for strategic planning and execution November 4, $3000 charge out of my account which I thought was very steep, and what did he do to charge that amount of money was a question to me. In December we where to have a phone conference which he postponed for a later date and I accepted, but when I spoke to him about my case he knew absolutely nothing about the case, none of the details and then tells me that "he didn't have my file in front of him", and the phone call kept dropping and trying different method to communicate which he was still charging me Before. I immediately wrote an email to the whole entire law firm, expressing my concerns about the lack of knowledge and preparation in a detailed itemized list, then reflecting back on what he charged me for a month prior was "strategizing and reviewing the case". So I asked Paul the question how could you charge me $3000 and then 30 days later you know nothing about the case?? He assured me, (Paul) that he likes to get familiar with the case right before the court date that way it's fresh in his mind and do not worry I will not double charge you. Not only was he still not prepared at the court date he was studying in the hallway and jotting down notes. He then was delivering to the court and to my ex-wife false information that I had to correct him on in the courtroom. While questioning me on the stand he also asked me questions to clarify dates and he had the dates wrong in his questions that I had to clarify on the stand. At the end of all this he charged me double again!!!! When I confronted him about the double charge, (because they requested an additional $15,000 which would put me at $30,000 and we still haven't even finished the domestic violence) He had his Hinchman bill collector office lady call me demanding the funds and said, "well it's your right to have representation and if you don't want it come pick up your things or I will mail them to you"! Paul finally got on the phone after a week or two of me demanding his presence and an explanation for these charges. He argued with me and said "I don't even remember your ex-wife's name right now, we are guaranteed to forget, so if I charged you for it back then and I forgot...... it's legal services that I provide and I'm not giving you any money back". As a business owner I replied to him... "can you imagine if I told you that I put in an air-conditioning unit at your home and it's guaranteed to not work, but I'm going to charge you for it anyways. I was dumbfounded by his response!! All of the email responses that were supposed to go over to my ex and her lawyer, when I received all my documents nothing was communicated only three responses at the beginning of the case they prolonged the case along with Joanne Scheinberg law firm to exploit myself and my ex-wife and misappropriate the funds. One of the court appearances Paul said so loudly "this law firm (speaking of Joanne Scheinberg) are crooks!. All they want to do is want to take your money". I think the judge heard him!! He said it so loud and the Attorney for Johnn Steinberg smirked and looked at Paul as they locked eyes. I'm going to spend a lot of time and effort and energy to expose this law firm along with Joanne Steinberg. It is criminal what they are doing. I fired Next Leagl and represented myself the next trial. They didn't even give me my documents to the day of my hearing in the morning. They have no regard for you as a person. All they want is your money do not fall for the bait and switch this Attorney comes to court even in a dirty suit, uncut hair and bad breath, it was the worst experience of my life. And I deal with many attorneys in my day-to-day business. This is by far the worst law firm ever. And they will be exposed. Anyone with questions or validation of these claims. Please reach out directly and I will provide all documentation so you can see the truth for yourself run from this law firm protect yourself from this scam.

I said I don't care about "all clients" please contact the state. then I received another notice!! I called again. he still had NO IDEA WHO I WAS - NOR DID HE ASK!! I then nicely phoned and asked for my retainer back beginning in January. no reply. when I finally spoke with him, he said he would have to bill me for his time repeatedly calling the IRS!!! so, again, he never called the State!! also, since when does an accountant bill like a lawyer does?
