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 am having a difficult time getting my landlord to complete payment of relocation expenses as…read moreagreed upon. 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!

Ms. Alves showed compassion in listening to our experiences and was extremely knowledgeable in advising us in our next steps. The Cease and Desist letter she crafted was formidable and played an instrumental role in getting this attorney to drop all monetary claims against us. While her legal skills are impressive, I was most moved by the humanity she showed. She accepted our case saying she objected to corrupt attorneys and wanted to restore our faith in the profession. She certainly did this by demonstrating uncompromising integrity and ethics. We are grateful for Ms. Alves and highly recommend her.

Outstanding Legal Representation - Highly Recommend!…read more I cannot say enough good things about Michael Cardoza and The Cardoza Law Corporation. From the very beginning of my personal injury case, it was clear that I was in the hands of a knowledgeable, experienced, and highly skilled legal team. Mr. Cardoza and his staff were not only professional and responsive, but also truly compassionate and dedicated throughout the entire process. Their expertise in personal injury law, combined with a strategic and determined approach, led to a successful outcome in my case--and I always felt informed and supported every step of the way. They went above and beyond to advocate for my rights, and their diligence and hard work made all the difference. I'm incredibly grateful for the peace of mind they've helped me achieve, and I wholeheartedly recommend The Cardoza Law Corporation to anyone in need of expert legal representation. Thank you again to Mr. Cardoza and staff. You've earned my deepest gratitude and highest recommendation. David L. Horn

My husband and I met with Mr Ginn today and very much enjoyed meeting with him…read more He was very friendly and showed deep concern for our situation.

After conferring for an hour we felt that all our questions had been answered and as we shook hands preparing to leave I asked him how much the fee was.
