I reached out to her after 11 years to request her representation for an expungement and now recently, for help gathering old documents I needed for my new position, and she went above and beyond. Even after over a decade, she remembered my case and took the time to track everything down quickly and thoroughly. I'm incredibly grateful for her continued support and professionalism. If you're looking for someone who's not only excellent at what they do but genuinely cares, she's the one you want in your corner for sure.

Dealing with a government agency is never easy or quick...Michael worked smart and diligently always stressing the need to be patient as he meticulously navigated the DOJ spider web of obstacles to get my DOJ criminal record fixed and amended so that now I can purchase a firearm AND employers are talking to me for hire. Great job Michael!

The court documents they draft are poorly written, contained errors, and by mistake, disclosed an unrelated party's case information to me.

Anil listened, was very responsive, gave great legal advice, and very quickly got me the best possible outcome for my case.

Don't waste your money. Receptionist is rude and acts like your bothering them when you call to…read morefind our what is going on. Excuse me? You were hired by us. If you were never in trouble before it would be nice to be informed, they act like you know what they know. When a parent is concerned enough to care and follow through with what is going on have them sign a release from day one. Not tell them in a chicken shit way by mail they are not authorized to share a clients info because they don't want to talk to their concerned parent. Especially since there wasn't a problem when the parent attended all meetings w/ your office .After all they are the ones that paid you the money! Very poor customer service . No recommendations to friends or family.

Review in English and Spanish. Please review before to hire an attorney. I did not do that with…read moreher. Therefore, I would have understood how she really treats other human being. All the reviews are still right in 2023. Not improvement. Maria was manipulating me in accepting being guilty or to accept something I have not done at all when she understood I was not guilty at all. She kept pushing, posponing, and wasting time for 5 months, charging the money, did not show to 1st court, and told me not to show to my first court. The judge explained me if I would have not showed I would have been arrested. She also showed about 30 minutes late to another, and I gave her about 20 documents for 2 months she kept them not submitted to court as she said. Yes, her attitude is unethical, unprofessional and belittled me. With lack of emotional intelligence and more. She yelled at me saying " I am your lawyer I know what I am doing." Told me I can leave the country without permission, was wrong I could have been arrested, need court order. Did not do the work. Review in English and Spanish Por favor revisen los review o hagan mas preguntas antes de contratar cualquier abogado/a. Yo no lo hize, si hubiese leido estos reviewes hubiese ahorrado tiempo, dinero, y energia. Fue una experinecia horrible, solo me quito mi dinero, sabia que estaba actuando mal. me quizo obligar a ser culpable y que segun a menos codigo penal cuando soy y ella sabe que soy innocente. Y no le improta tu bienestar, al contario su actitud es falta de Etica professional, te grita, te trata como si ella es superior, te dice "Soy soy tu abogada y se lo que estoy haciendo" me dijo que no me presentara a la corte y el juez dijo que si not me presentaria me iban a arrestar, me dijo que no necesitaba permiso para salir del pais y no era cierto, no se presento 1 vez y llego tarde 2 veces, no presento mis documentos cuando dijo sino 2 meses despues. Falta de Intelligencia emocional

Matthew Luzaich hands down has to be one of the best attorneys out there! When he represents you in…read morecourt he makes you feel like you are his top priority. Matthew was very professional and would promptly get back to me every time I contacted him. He was able to get the judge to wave some court fees saving me money in this expensive process. Mr. Luzaich went out of his way to help me after my case was "resolved" with the court. When you hire Matthew S. Luzaich you get the best legal representation, bar none, in Northern California. Mr. Luzaich is a bulldog in court, he knows how to get the job done. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is searching for an attorney.

Matthew is an amazing attorney who was with me every step of the way. He researched laws for…read moreveterans that have not yet been implemented in Butte County, and he basically introduced to the county legal system proper procedures for certain violations. I would recommend Mr. Luzaich to any person who is facing a criminal conviction. If Matthew doesn't know the answer to your questions, he will find the answers and keep you updated immediately. Thank you Matthew for keeping me sane and standing by my side.

My case lasted 3.5years and as frustrating as it was at times (especially through the switching of…read moresecretaries that then had to learn my case all over again) I will say I am VERY pleased with the results! My secretary Amanda handled my complaining like a champ and the attorney's at the office were more than helpful with answering case questions. When my case went into litigation Trish was there to guide me through what to expect. All-in-all I will admit there were tears and definitely anger at times, but with cases that last as long as mine that has to be expected. Everyone at the Law offices of Max G Arnold were more than happy to help me with all of my requests and calm me down. I will forever highly recommend them! I am updating this because I wanted to include that at one point I was seeing 5 different Dr.'s. Sometimes it was too much to manage to remember where to go, what to do, or who needed what paperwork. During all of this I would get extremely upset at times, even frustrated with Dr.'s appointments (and secretaries), but they were more than willing to listen, guide me to where I needed to go (or call) to get my answers and even to help me know what paperwork the Dr. may need. That in itself was invaluable to me! I will still recommend them, but felt that this had to be added to show exactly how far they go to help their clients!

$1500 to deal with a speeding ticket???! You have got to be F$%king kidding me!!…read more I called to speak with someone about this.... Benjamin picked up the phone and immediately had a bad attitude towards me wanting to hire someone to take care of a ticket. He asked why I would want to for only a speeding ticket.... well, probably so that it will not go on my record, seems legit right? Well, when most other lawyers told me anywhere from $450-650 for the case..... Benjamin told me $1500!!! then hung up on me when I said that was crazy..... Nice firm they have here

I posted earlier but for some reason it was taken down. I must reiterate the level of…read moreprofessionalism that Mr. Erpino put forth in my case.

I contacted Matthew out of the blue via a Yelp search with questions pertaining to my son regarding…read morea minor in possession and its subsequent affect on his DMV record. Matthew went above and beyond to help me understand what would be required in order to have this issue resolved at the Butte County Court level and with the DMV. There was really little incentive for him as there were no fees to be charged. He provided much valuable information and form numbers and excellent information regarding the various infractions and our options. Never did he request any compensation. He seemed genuinely happy to be able to provide this information. I even contacted him a bit later as we were having landlord issues with my sons rental. Once again he gladly provided the necessary information and insight to allow us to receive additional monies back from this landlord that had been withheld improperly. I would highly recommend Matthew based upon my experience with him.

He was the worst defensive attorney I've could ever imagine. He told me I was going to prison for…read moresomething I didn't do. He said he believed that I didn't do it but a Facebook post said deferent I went to court for 2 years with him he just wanted me to take a bullshit, plea witch was a felony charge. I miss court one time In 2 years just a mix up of dates on my part. He never called me to be like hey you haven't missed court ever in 2 almost 3 years is something going on.!? You would think that's what your attorney would do. Instead, he waited until after 4 o'clock when I was on the 830 calendar could've been there for the 1 o'clock calendar to tell me that I was going to jail nothing that he could do about it. Nothing I could do about it I was going to jail I might as well turn myself in. I have never been in trouble in my life. I've never been arrested. I've never been to jail. I was terrified. He was laughing at the fact that I was crying. I went ahead and hired another attorney. The case was closed within a month after almost 3 years of going to court with this joke of a lawyer, he should be disbarred. He's very close with the district attorneys office as well. Wouldn't trust him with my life or anyone else's. all around horrible person in general. don't know if I can leave zero stars so I'm gonna leave one.

Mr. McHugh is a lawyer. Just not a very helpful one…read more Please consider the following questions before allowing Mr. McHugh to take your money and represent you. Would you like a lawyer that: Advocates for you? Communicates with you? Possesses a sense of urgency? Instills a sense of reassurance or partnership with you? Takes notes regarding your case and then actually refers to them in the future? Makes eye contact with you? Remembers your name? If you answer "Yes" to any of the above questions, then Mr. McHugh is not the lawyer for you. Instead, if you would like a lawyer that: Starts off your first consultation by saying: "I don't mean to insult your intelligence..." and then does exactly that. Makes you feel like a simpleton because YOU don't understand the law or the intricacies of the court. Requires continual hand-holding, follow-up, and prompting from you for any action to be taken on your behalf. Does not respond in a timely manner to your calls, voicemails, or emails. Simply forwards emails to you from the court or the opposing counsel with no explanatory comment or additional context. Forces the opposing counsel to write a hardcopy letter to your lawyer that starts with: "I have been trying to reach you. Please give me a call." Just to get a response and discuss terms. When confronted, admits that his communications with you have not been "up to par" and yet is no more proactive or transparent in future interactions. If you answered "Yes" to any of these questions, then congratulations! Mr. McHugh is your kind of lawyer. If you retain Mr. McHugh, expect to pay full price for less than full service. You will be left in the dark and then get billed for doing your own case management and communication. Mr. McHugh failed to put forth even the minimum expected effort for a retained attorney. At no time in handling my case did he proactively reach out to me with information, options, or communications to bring my case to a timely resolution. In every interaction it was up to me to initiate communication or prompt him to take action in contacting opposing counsel or continually remind him to ensure key elements I desired were included in the iterative drafts of court documents. The gut-wrenching process of a divorce or custody dispute is draining and comes at a high emotional cost. Paying for an attorney that is distant, disengaged, and unresponsive only compounds the cost. Had Mr. McHugh expended half the effort on my behalf that I spent on writing this online review, I would have avoided a great deal of unnecessary anxiety, stress, and fees. Save yourself the trouble, frustration, and headache of my experience. Keep searching and find a helpful and committed lawyer to represent you.
