From our first meeting Mr. Ugarte was very thorough in explaining how the process would go if we chose to hire him as our lawyer. He is very knowledgeable in disability law. We did use him and he did everything he said he would. The process takes a while and he called every 2 weeks to update us even if there was no new news. From the beginning to end he kept us informed and guided us through the process. We will always be grateful for all his hard work in helping with our case. Not only did he do a great job, he is also a really nice guy who genuinely seems to care about the people he's helping. We have since referred a few people to him and will continue to do so. Top notch service here!! Heidi & Chirs S.

Stefanie's testimonials were what first drew us to her. She came across as knowledgeable, personable, and someone we would feel comfortable working with, and that turned out to be exactly right. Working with Stefanie made what could have felt like an overwhelming process feel clear, manageable, and straightforward. She was incredibly kind, understanding, and accommodating with our schedule, especially while we were juggling doctor's appointments and personal matters. She explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and made the entire process feel much less intimidating. Throughout the process, we felt supported, never rushed, and truly cared for. Stefanie is organized, patient, thorough, and genuinely compassionate. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an estate planning attorney who is not only knowledgeable, but also kind and understanding during life's more challenging moments.

Stefanie has been absolutely exceptional. This is the second time I have worked with her on my…read moreestate planning, and once again, she exceeded every expectation. After I got married, my estate situation became significantly more complex. Stefanie guided me through every detail with remarkable clarity and patience, ensuring that nothing was overlooked and that all documents were fully aligned with my new circumstances. Her ability to explain sophisticated legal issues in plain, understandable language made the entire process stress-free. What truly sets Stefanie apart is her combination of technical excellence and genuine care for her clients. She is meticulous, responsive, and deeply invested in delivering work of the highest quality. I felt completely confident that my family's future is protected because of her diligence. I would not trust my estate planning to anyone else. If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, thorough, and a pleasure to work with, I recommend Stefanie without hesitation.

All I needed was to wait to file my case for another 2 months. From there, I opted to cancel his service and I only got partial of my payment. He and his team (Megan) lacks communication. It takes weeks for either one of them to get back to you. Megan had all my paperwork all wrong. More than half of my claims were missing for the filing and she says "I didn't look through all of them." What am I paying you for?!? Would NOT recommend their service.

Suddenly worker's comp started denying claims and I could not receive treatment unless I paid myself. I called Boxer & Gerson and gave them my story. Attorney named Hillary called me and it just took off from there. She took the bull by the horns and next thing I knew I had a fat check in the mail. She is a great communicator; kept me up to date on progress through email and phone. I cannot recommend Boxer & Gerson loudly enough for your worker's comp problems. And if you're lucky enough to get Hillary, she is very kind, straightforward, and knows her craft.

"Richards law" was showing up right there. Today is Sunday, at 08:17 in the morning I called 925-231-8104 and left brief message. I was hoping that someone from the law firm will call me back tomorrow. Surprisingly, Mr. Richards called me back at 09:13 ,only 56 minutes after I called. He listened to my case patiently, laid out the plans what he is going to do to help me. He is so professional, knowledgeable and so easy to talk to . He spent over 20 minutes over the phone with me. I am very much confident that Mr. Richards will win the case for me.

Continuing from first review…read more.. Robert A. Miller made me subpoena a former roommate in order to get her to be a witness. This was unnecessary as her email to me was sufficient. Additionally, there are many instances where Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg revealed that they did not examine all of the evidence that I provided. Robert A. Miller kept stressing issues of my pet cat's bodily functions. There was not a single complaint (no email or text, but only something the landlord wanted to add to her retaliatory eviction) of cat urine smell from my two roommates and their partners. I stated that numerous friends of mine have visited and can be witnesses to support that cat urine smell was never an issue. Robert A. Miller responded that the plaintiff Juliet Welch would then call on the other four downstairs tenants as witnesses of cat urine smell. How can downstairs tenants witness what happens in my upstairs apartment when the units are separate and the downstairs tenants and upstairs tenants are not friends and therefore the downstairs tenants are never invited inside the upstairs unit. Moreover, the downstairs tenants have a senior dog and a new puppy, both of whom require puppy pads and potty training. The downstairs tenants also dogsit. There are multiple animals at the 61 Franciscan Way address. A week before my conference court date, Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg required an additional $18,000 in order to represent me, essentially abandoning me. At which point, I asked them to stop work. My new counsel reached a settlement of my staying until the end of December (as opposed to October) and $9000 in new money. The attorney fee agreement clearly states that the $5,000 (the one where I gave $10,000) would ensure the case goes to a jury trial. This is a breach of contract, fiduciary duty, and fraud. Neither Robert A. Miller nor David M. Sternberg went over the retainer fee agreement with me. As a matter of fact, David M. Sternberg did not even sign the retainer fee agreement until August 14th, 2019 after receiving the additional $5,000 (where I gave $10,000). I filed a Ca State Bar Mandatory fee dispute in Feb. 2022. Robert A. Miller answered to serve David M. Sternberg who did not agree to be served until November 2022. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg ignored the CA State Bar Mandatory fee dispute so that the statute of limitations would expire. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg responded after I filed small claims because the CA State Bar Dispute was not going anywhere. I called everyday and left messages and CA State Bar only responded once when I received a call back that they will not discipline attorneys for not answering. At the small claims court date, David M. Sternberg twisted the fee dispute to become legal malpractice to claim a one year statute of limitation. I never used the language of legal malpractice in any of my communication with Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg set themselves up nicely so that they can claim that any court proceeding waives my rights to pursue a fee dispute with Ca State Bar. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg are unscrupulous lawyers who are greedy and take advantage of vulnerable clients.

I reached out to the Law offices of Robert Miller to see what steps I could take and what to do next since my requests to the landlord are going unanswered. Mr. Miller called me back within 24hrs of me reaching out and was very thorough in explaining what steps I should take before reaching the point of needing to officially engage legal counsel. Legal fees can add up quickly and I appreciated him pointing me in the right direction during our phone consultation. I intend on following his guidance and because of his willingness to help without my retaining him, when the time comes to engage counsel with this matter, I will absolutely be using his services. Thank you Robert!
