I hired Matt Blado to represent me in a Gilmore election (a case that allows an ex spouse to…read morecollect their share of the pension should the other party refuse to retire). He frequently didn't respond to me during the process. Before our court hearing I reached out multiple times trying to make sure he was ready with the expert witness he had me hire and pay for. Our very first court appearance he had to postpone because he failed to serve my ex! Then there was another hearing that was asked for another exemption. Zero response until a week before the hearing. I get a frantic call from Matt encouraging me to settle for less than half of what I would get in court! I refused. He gave me some story as to why it was in my best interest to take the 50%. Then he came back and said my ex was refusing that amount and it would be less than 30% of what I was entitled to, however his firm would make up the difference. HUGE RED FLAG and alarm bells went off! I work for a professional services company and we do NOT pay our clients. Then the next email I get is from an associate at his firm sending me a response filing by my ex's attorney. It detailed out Matt's failure to respond to settlement negotiations, and failing to file MY witness list (so I have NO expert) in trial. The court filing was clear this guy had not done a thing to help my case and it was all detailed out for the judge. I cried! I had waited over a year with his delays and extensions he requested on my case and now I have no chance of winning and zero faith in his ability to represent me. I took his offer as long as he put in writing to pay me the money to bring me to 50%. He said he would write off the attorney costs (well I certainly expected that since he screwed up the whole thing!) and he said he cut me a check within X number of days. Well that came and went. No money. Then he sends me a release he wants me to sign that says I won't discuss his screw ups! Absolutely NOT! He cost me money and he let my ex get away with even more BS. That was an insult on top of the injury he caused me. I filed a complaint with the state bar and I hired an attorney to represent me against Matt. I didn't quite get the amount I would have from my ex, but I still get to warn other people to run. This guy misses every deadline and can't even serve notice to the opposing counsel! Do yourself a favor and don't hire Matt Blado.

He would tell me when fighting an issue was not cost effective vs what was worth fighting for. He is not one of those lawyers who tries to make the situation more adversarial in order to make more money. He genuinely did right by me and always delivered the best service for the lowest possible fees. And, he managed to reach a settlement without going to court, which I didn't think was possible. I'm very impressed by him and I can't recommend Roy enough.

Sydney has represented me through an extremely complex and high-conflict case, and I genuinely feel like I owe her my life. She has helped me through one of the most difficult and important times of my life, and because of her dedication, knowledge, and advocacy, my daughter is happy, safe, and thriving. She genuinely cares about her clients as people, and you never feel like you are just another case or another name on her desk. She has supported me, guided me, and fought for what mattered most when I needed someone in my corner. Sydney knows the law inside and out, but more importantly, she knows how to use it. She is incredibly sharp and quick on her feet in the courtroom. She listens, thinks fast, knows how to respond in the moment, and advocates with confidence and purpose. She is incredibly intelligent, highly educated, extremely well respected, and exceptionally good at what she does. Her knowledge, professionalism, and ability to navigate even the most difficult situations have given me a sense of security during times when I felt completely overwhelmed. I will never be able to fully express how grateful I am for everything Sydney has done for my daughter and me. Having someone with her knowledge, strength, and genuine compassion beside me through the most difficult years of my life has meant more than I can put into words. She has made an incredible impact on our lives, and choosing Sydney to represent me is one of the best decisions I could have made.

Last September (2016), my soon-to-be former wife ran off with our infant son (the only one we had…read moretogether in our short, 3 year marriage), falsely accused me of domestic violence, and filed a restraining order against me. The "charges" were complete fabrications and lies in order to slander me and circumvent the legal process to ultimately gain complete and total custody of our son. She retained what was supposed to be a "reputable", well-known (and expensive) attorney from the Mission Valley area, so I needed good legal counsel too, and fast. As the father of 4 other children, I knew what was going on and needed legal counsel that would be savvy enough to help defend me of the false DV charges and help me get my son back. So I did what many people do in these situations and jumped on the internet to look around for an attorney, then entered my information on a website, and Ross Veta contacted me almost immediately. Let me just say I couldn't have asked for a better attorney than Ross. He is a calm, cool, collected attorney who is savvy, knows what to do, and has a friendly, likable demeanor that you don't see in the legal profession. He always showed up in court dressed impeccably, with a smile on his face, was ready to go (prepared), and always put me at ease. In the end, the domestic violence charges and restraining orders were not only summarily DENIED, but I managed to get 50 percent custody of my son. And the real kicker is, Ross Veta also managed to get my legal costs reimbursed from the DV / RO charges, something that's almost unheard of. Needless to say, I filed for divorce just before the DV / RO hearing, so of course I'm using Ross to go through the process of divorcing this narcissistic woman. and have full faith that Ross will get me through this as well. Again, Ross is one-in-a-million and will help you get through what is usually one of the most unpleasant, stressful experiences in your life. Well done Ross, and big thanks!
