I don't know how someone can handle any sort of legal matter without a lawyer. There are just too…read moremany documents that need to be filed, dates that need to be met and procedures that are difficult to understand. It's very easy to slip up and inadvertently limit some of your options. Deadlines can stack up very quickly and the whole process can be very confusing and stressful. I'm educated and have a career with over ten years experience but I know very little about the legal system so I contact Melo-Sarsfield to help explain my options in a recent legal matter. They drove the process, handled all the paperwork, contacted the other parties involved, checked in with me from time to time and were present every time I needed to meet with a third party. Watching them work made me realize how ill equipped I was to handle the matter on my own. Marguerite and John always kept a positive attitude. They were patient, explained things in a way I could understand and would go over something as many times as it took for me to understand. They always had a lot of real world experience that they could draw from when they were explaining the situation. They made me feel comfortable asking questions and made it very easy for me to speak frankly with them. They made it a point to explain what their strategy was and what sort of outcome we could expect. They always made time for me and made me feel like my case was the most important one they were handling even though know that couldn't have been the case. It's obvious that they have a lot of expertise. When I saw them in court the judge's reaction to them made it clear that they were on top of their game. Melo-Sarsfield will be the first law office I call if I ever need any legal help. They're good people and always did more than I expected and, most importantly, I trust them.

Smart folks - they get the job done. They work for the disenfranchised. Luckily to such quality…read morepeople locally in the Central Valley of California.

This has been such a disappointing experience. I had my consultation with Louis Lyons and was…read morepromised prompt handling and filing of my divorce and child support/custody case. I immediately retained and paid $4500 up front on June 5th. Only the divorce was filed. I have been ignored for almost 4 weeks now. Emails, texts, calls and going in person to their office does not get me a response or answers. I still have NO answer as to why child support and custody orders have not been filed. We have no court date established to discuss these terms. Jill, the paralegal has never answered why temporary orders were never filed. I have written documentation asking her this over SIX times with no answer. She has not responded to me since July 17th. I went to their office to get answers on August 4th and neither attorney was willing to meet with me. I cannot understand why after retaining this firm over 10 weeks ago, they have failed to do what I paid them for. I feel lied to. If they were too busy to handle my case, they shouldn't have taken my $4500. I have since fired them and sent a demand email a week ago requesting my client file, any documentation, accounting and unearned portion of my legal fees paid. I am fairly certain this will be going to arbitration and complaints filed with the state bar association. After having a few consultations with other firms, I have been told that this is not unique to them-- this is a common complaint they are known for. Proceed with caution with this law firm. The front desk girls are nice, but are only able to provide apologies and zero clarity.

The best lawyers and all in this building , i appreciate and are so grateful for everyone in here…read morethat helped me with the process of my case .
