We consulted this firm for a high-conflict custody and child support case. Initially, we reached…read moreout to retain Kristen Holstrom, but during the consultation, Timothy McArdle joined the call and outlined a clear plan for our case. Both were knowledgeable, and we retained Timothy. Our case was resolved out of court with a favorable modification to the custody schedule. Timothy took the time to understand the details of our situation and consistently showed empathy and reassurance throughout the process. He was professional, well spoken, direct, and knew the case like the back of his hand. His case coordinator, James Chase, was responsive, which helped us feel informed at every step. Family court is stressful, and clear communication made a difference. The firm is expensive, but for us, the results were worth it. We now have peace of mind knowing we have strong representation advocating for my husband's rights as a father. Highly recommend if you're seeking counsel to represent you to go the distance.

To follow-up on my previous review of this law firm, I only wanted to add the results I had been…read morewaiting for. Chandra saw my poor review of her performance and effort in my divorce & custody case she was handling, so she retaliated against me, by forcing my Appeals Case attorney, Ron Funk, who also works for the same law firm, to completely drop my case, with only a couple of weeks until we were set to appear and Ron was supposed to present his appeals arguments. Instead, I ended-up with no choice but to appear for my appeal representing myself and arguing all of Ron Funks points, which frankly were confusing and referencing precedent set in various lawsuits and Supreme Court decisions in recorded law history. Since I'm no attorney, when the appeals board attorneys began grilling me about proving our points through citing specific case-law, etc. I did a horrible job and barely understood what they were asking me. Instead of being straight forward and simple, everything in the Civil/Family Law Court system in America, especially in San Bernardino Superior Courts, in San Bernardino, CA., the sense of fairness and justice is obviously broken, corrupted, biased, and nothing need be evidence based, most decisions are made at one judges whims after glancing at the courtroom minutes and orders, for all of 15 minutes (AT BEST, I'd SAY) and the blindfold upon the face of lady justice has slipped off completely. Oh well, I was only appealing a judge allowing my ex to move my 3 young children from California to Florida, which predictably alienated me from my children completely. The results of the appeal did not go my way, and the appeals judges cited that while they didn't really fault me for not being fluent with old case-law nor Ron Funks writings, but they said Ron Funks arguments did not show cause for reversing the previous court ruling allowing her to move. However, I did win part of the appeal in which my divorce judge unconstitutionally forced me into providing hair-follicle drug testing results (all of which came back negative for drugs - yet those results were somehow improperly interpreted by the idiot judge as being positive, and the 3 hair-follicle test results I provided, were the basis for me losing custody of my children completely), which is illegal in California, so those requests for those hair drug tests and all of the results, and anything pertaining to those results were all stricken from the divorce case records. Naturally that implies that custody of my children would be given back to me, however to this day on January 27, 2026, I have yet to have custody modified back to normal 50/50 split between my ex and I. I believe if Ron Funk was present to explain his own writings and his own logic and thought process for the appeal case, that I may have won that appeal and I wouldn't have had to quit my career of 25 years in California to move to my kids neighborhood in Florida, and this nightmare I'm unable to wake from may have been prevented like Ron Funk had convinced me he would and could do. So, since Ron Funk recommended I use Chandra for my divorce case, and she performed poorly and unethically, IN MY OPINION, and I fired her and wrote a review of her on Yelp!, she and the other partners at Holstrom, Block & Parke discussed my review, and then told Ron Funk he needed to drop my appeals case immediately. Ron Funk told me he had no choice because of my review of a partner at his law firm. He then sent a substitution of attorney form , leaving me with no attorney for the appearance in court for my important life-altering appeals case the day after I posted Chandra's harsh, yet honest and accurate review.

Other lawyers were charging ridiculous amount to get started on my case . I did not have that kind of money. Thankfully, after a lot of prayers, I came across Lawyer Christopher Koch he was extremely helpful Gave me peace of mind, explained the process very carefully dedicated time in court to resolve my case the best possible way with a reduced sentence. aside from being within my budget he was very patient. Easy to reach. And I could not have picked a better lawyer for my case to be resolved. After a couple of court dates, I got a reduced sentence of 6 months home arrest instead of four years in federal prison, I am thankful to him and God bless his soul. He was truly a blessing.

Besides the dress, the photographer was the most important and crucial detail for wedding planning…read more Anyone can hold a camera and pose as a photographer but that doesn't mean they're actually good. My husband and I came across Heavenly Portraits while at Muckenthaler Mansion, where we had our wedding. While talking with the wedding planner at the Mansion, there was a table full of photo books and one stood out to both my husband and I, prompting us to say "we want that photographer". The book itself was unlike any we've ever seen and instead of seeing the same mundane wedding photos, what we saw was the story of a beautiful couple celebrating such a significant day in their lives. The photos captured who the couple were and I can honestly say, there wasn't a bad photo in there. I wrote down "Heavenly Portraits" to remind myself to look them up when we got home. Along with searching and looking at Heavenly's portfolio, I searched at least 15 other photographer and NONE of them compared to Heavenly Portraits when it came to quality, shots and overall looks. I knew that Heavenly Portraits had to do our wedding and if they couldn't, well the world would end, lol. Heavenly Portraits is the brilliant and loveable husband/wife team, Donny and Holly. Due to the fact that Holly was due with their 4th child around the time of our wedding, it was just Donny covering the engagement session and wedding; however, you wouldn't be able to tell because he moves around faster and swifter than a secret ninja and gets all the good shots. In fact, one of my bridesmaid kept saying how impressed she was because every time she turned around, there he was capturing yet another amazing moment during our wedding. Instead of doing a guest book at our wedding, we had one of our engagement photos printed and framed for guests to sign. I can't tell you how many friends and family complimented the photo and family was asking me how they could purchase that print because they wanted a copy for themselves! I'm so fortunate and grateful to have had Heavenly Portraits do our wedding. They now have a client for life.

I saw GGB on Instagram and the Knot website. The name kept catching my attention so I reached out and got a fast response. Our first conversation was so cool we shared a few laughs too. It was like I already knew Corey. He explained everything thoroughly and he was very professional. The day of my wedding Corey was right on time and ready! My mom is a character and he was so patient. Now, let me tell you about my highlight video! The drone footage was beautiful, music was perfect, editing was flawless and he caught every single special moment! He made me LOVE my wedding in a way I didn't think I ever would. My husband who is not easily impressed and didn't want a videographer was SUPER impressed and LOVES our video! Corey's work in my opinion is worth double what I paid him and then some! What he created for us is priceless. Don't believe me, check out his IG! You will NOT be disappointed. Corey is no longer just a vendor to us he's our friend and we love him! I want to have another event to book him again!

I would give more stars for the cleaning itself less stars for the management. The cleaners did a…read moregreat job! My issue is I waited for them to arrive for 3 hours and the owner wasn't very responsive. They were supposed to come between 11-12. They ended up getting there at 2pm. So I waited 3 hours for the cleaning service. When she finally replied she said she didn't have service but she sent me a msg on yelp which I couldn't use since I had no wifi since this was a move in clean. She said they were going to be late but she didn't give any specifics. I had to have my husband send a message on yelp from my iPad at home since I had no wifi asking her to call me. I also text and called for about 40 min before I got a response. Once I did get a response I was told they would be there within an hour (which would have been already over 2 hours waiting). They didn't get there until 2pm. I was quoted $140-$180 for a 1000 sq ft move in cleaning for a 2 bedroom house. After all this I expected and requested a discount since I literally could have done the cleaning myself in the 3 hrs I waited. She charged me the max of $180 and added on deep cleaning the cabinets. The cabinets are old and definitely needed cleaning but the basic cleaning was included in the price. When I saw the cabinets after they looked clean but there weren't any stains prior (just scrapes and scratches since they're old) they literally looked the same just no debris which to me would have been the same with the basic cleaning. I expressed my concern to the owner and she seemed annoyed and told me they threw in the deep cabinet clean for free. I'm like I waited 3 hrs. You guys couldn't have made it the cheaper price and thrown in the deep clean I didn't ask for? I also thought the windows cleaning was included which was my fault bc it says it wasn't on the paper but I'm like I waited 3 hours and am paying the max you can't throw in the windows too? She was very short and didn't seem too concerned about the inconvenience. I originally hired cleaners because the old owner left the place in bad condition and we have had to do so much thus far just to make it livable I wanted to save time but this took 5+ hours including wait time so I could have definitely just done it. The cleaning took only 2 hours so I waited longer than the cleaning took. Not to mention this house isn't moved in yet so waiting there for 3 hours was really uncomfortable. If they get there on time and respond it's a good price and good clean but if not it's not worth it. Huge headache.

Update: Point proven with managerial response…read more Extremely poor customer service. The cleaning job was satisfactory if it wasn't riddled with the managerial rudeness. Something broken after a cleaning job with photos to prove it wasn't broken before- yep I'm in the wrong. Do not worry though they will respond with a very long copy and paste statement of how we are wrong and it must've been there before (again photos to prove it wasn't). I am also sure there will be a copy and paste response to this Yelp review, as I am sure this is not the first they have "dealt" with.
