Waste of time--look elsewhere. I scheduled a phone consultation and was asked (by both email and a call) to send over documents ahead of time so they could be prepared. I did that, but when the appointment time came, no one called. I had to follow up myself, only to be asked to reschedule. Not a great first impression--especially for a service charging $500/hour and requesting a $5,000 upfront retainer. read more

The team at Katje Law Group was so impressive. Philip, especially, was incredibly professional, thorough, and genuinely sincere.

I could not say a big enough thank you to Katje Law Group. As stressful as it already is to deal with a legal matter, their professionalism, patience, and willingness to help did not make a challenging situation harder than it already was. They were attentive to my requests and questions. They were receptive to my concerns and preferences. Moreover, they were respectful in their delivery of their legal advice. From the start of my case until the end, while not telling me simply what I want to hear, they made me feel prepared and secured in an uncertain situation. I could not have navigated and gotten through my situation without their excellent and knowledgeable guidance. I highly recommend Katje Law Group if you need professional assistance with your legal matter. read more

About 2 years ago I went there to have a paragraph changed in my trust. 1) They did not tell me I could do it myself & just assure I have it notarized, 2) They charged me $500 to have a secretary (I assume) type the amendment. I will never go back there. And from now on I hope I always will find and check ratings prior to just calling a nearby attorney. 3) If I feel I only want a form drawn for whatever reason there are "Legal Document Assistant Services". "A Legal Document Assistant (LDA) service in California is a business that provides assistance in preparing legal documents for people who are representing themselves. They are prohibited from giving legal advice or representation and must be registered with the county, bonded, and meet specific educational and experience requirements." read more

The attorney did not show up to my scheduled phone consultation. No cancellation message or anything - just wasted my time.

UPDATE: Although I was advised by the attorney to "just pay it," I did not. Instead, I filed a request for the judgment to be cancelled as the fraudulent plaintiff was sited by the CSLB. The judge in fact, cancelled it. It would have been nice to have been given that advice, especially since I spent so much money already. But I did my own research and took care of it without an attorney. If this firm truly believes in their work and think it's fair I paid thousands for mediocre work, shame on them. If they care about improvement and valuing their clients, return a portion of what I paid for. I got to the finish line with the right judgment on my own. read more

September and Philip were able to answer our questions within a 15-minute consultation. I cannot express how happy I am with the peace of mind their consultation provided. read more

Already spoke with two attorneys and both vehemently disagreed with your assessment of insurance matters. To quote one attorney: "I disagree with your prior attorney. I think there is liability on the part of ***, **** and the HOA. The case against *** and *** is very clear cut (I expect their insurers will ultimately pay each of the homeowners for their losses). " The lack of attention and professionalism is striking when you consider the following: I specifically wrote to ARAG (my legal insurance) that I needed assistance with insurance claims and HOA matters. You expressed interest in discussing the case further. We signed a retainer. You drafted a demand letter with various missing critical things like dollar amount asked, etc. I raised the need to address insurance matters yet again with you once I realized you were not moving on that front. The particular attorney assigned to me said they were not experienced in that regard, and would check with a law group partner. I noted repeatedly I wanted a full and fair assessment that wouldn't be dependent on ARAG prices. I was happy to pay outside their fee reimbursement schedule. If you had listened to the above points carefully, engaged them, thought them through with me, this would have gone differently (assuming someone in that office is capable in the areas of need). You provided an incomplete job, collected insurance payments, all at the cost of someone who is already going through great stress. This should not happen in the hands of an attorney one employs. You should not take up cases if you are unable to fully hear your clients and actively engage with the variables you are presented. It seems you had tunnel vision and only saw ARAG despite my statements asking you to look beyond and noting I would be willing to pay if it made sense to move forward. Instead, you made statements concerning the value of litigation when you had failed to hear so many of the things I had told you. read more

What a rude law firm. I called to review our situation and the gal puts me on hold for almost 8 minutes, and as I was about to hang up she comes back and quickly and sharply tell me we do not handle that, and says "ok, bye bye" and hangs up on me. Truly reveals the quality of this law firm. There is never a good excuse to be rude and hang up on potential clients. People need to know what to expect with this law firm. Not good. read more

We were delighted with professionalism, and attention to details that KATJE Law Group and staff provided us in updating our living trust. We recommend the services provided by this firm to everyone in need of creation of living trust. read more

This review comes long overdue. I am the Firm Administrator for a law firm in Huntington Beach. Over the years, we have utilized Katje Law Group for our clients that have landlord/tenant issues. The entire staff at Katje Law Group are detailed, courteous, informative, and most importantly, knowledgeable of the law. Each time I have had the pleasure of working with Katje Law Group, I am more impressed than the last time. It goes without saying, we will always work closely with Katje Law Group and look forward to working with them in the future. read more

Katje Law Group helped my husband and I create our family trust. They had a form with a series of questions in which we were able to take our time to fill then we scheduled a time to come to the office for signatures with the notary. Really appreciate their help in creating the trust and answering all our questions. read more

My wife and I finally got our act together and wanted to create our wills, living trust, power of attorney, medical power of attorney, etc. We were covered by MetLife's Legal Insurance, so we searched our area of Anaheim and found Katje Law Group was nearby and gave them a call with a few questions. We were put in touch with their paralegal Philip Noland and he took great care of us. He sent us a questionnaire online that we discussed and filled out stating our desires for everything that may be out of our control some day. We sent the info back and in a couple weeks we met with Philip and their notary Amanda Garcia. It took about an hour and we were all set. I can't say enough for their professionalism and attention to detail. Thanks to the legal insurance policy, we just spent a few hundred dollars for the insurance and for the notary and printing charges. It was a real bargain! Thanks Philip, Amanda and MetLife! read more

I was very pleased to work with attorney Edna Fok who was extremely helpful and professional. After consulting with other attorneys, Edna was confident that she would settle my case and remove everyone from title which she did. Other attorneys would not help me due to how COMPLICATED my case was, but Edna assured me that it could be done and kept her promise. read more

I used Katje Law Group this past year for a tenant move out and eviction. Not only were they very kind but from the beginning they were extremely responsive, and they had very clear communication. They were very helpful especially Amanda, who is the Paralegal and our Attorney Melissa. They put so much time and effort into our case, and guided us every step of the way, and answered the numerous questions we had since it was all new to us. We felt at ease knowing we had this law group on our side. We truly could not have gotten through this without them, I would highly recommend them and use them again if needed! read more

This is now the second review I'm giving. To September she has refunded $1050 of my money after taking $3500 for me and preparing only one or two documents I was charged $3500 for an illegal evictions during Covid crisis. I do not recommend anybody coming to this attorneys office. I have no other choice but to file a report with a bar association today I have tried to reach out to September the attorney several times and work something out to Refund must most of my money and she refuses she won't even speak to me. I find this very hard to except especially when I work so hard for my money $3500 I was charged 3500 for Deppe speaking to plaintiff attorney, three times plus one document was drafted regarding a trial hearing which to never even had they took and stole my money. I asked to be refunded $2500 since I did all the work I prepared all the legal documents I prepared the answer I prepared everything all they did was talk on the phone. Do you want to charge me $3500 and not refund my money this is unacceptable . Please make sure whenever you hire an attorney that you really do your research on homework otherwise you will be in the same situation I am in. read more

We worked with Philip and he was amazing, very responsive via email or phone call, very informative as well, we look forward to conducting future business with the firm read more

i provided plenty of information to the receptionist. She didnt really understand my need and put me on hold for 10 min and kept pressing me for confidential info even when I mentioned I can only share with an attorney and insisted on qualifying me even though i had given all the info i could comfortably give to someone who isnt bound by the confidentiality. Receptionist had no sense of service or business development for their firm and wouldn't pass me through to anyone. firm is unapologetic about losing customers and acts like its your loss when if fact its the business that suffers. Don't waste your time calling here. read more

First of all I have to give a big thank you to Amanda and September at their amazing team at Katje Law for all their amazing help and support. I had an unlawful detainer case that just wrapped up from May 2023 were Katje Law diligently followed up on my case being sealed and dismissed with no monetary payment to the landlord. Katje Law since th moment they took my case were on top of things, they immediately reached out to the landlords attorney and made a settlement proposal which after back and forth allowed for a close to 2 month move out date and zero monetary cost. Not only that they stayed on top of the attorneys office after the paperwork was not filed correctly and made sure I was covered. The move out date was end of May yet just a week ago the case concluded after the paperwork was finally filed correctly by the landlords attorney. Katje Law and their team were on top of things and did stop until we had final resolution in our favor. I will recommending and using Katje Law. They truly helped me throughout this ordeal. read more

I used the Katje law group for a HIPAA waiver and advanced directives for my college age children. Very simple process and exactly what I needed, would definitely use again. read more

Everyone working here was very nice and accommodating. I appreciate the staff, but I am disappointed at my experience here. I paid for a consultation and the advice I was given seemed like the attorney was just being lazy & taking the easy route. As a result, I had to consult with other attorneys after this, to find someone that could actually help my case with helpful advice. I did, and the other attorney I spoke with guided me on solving my issue. Whereas this law group told me I had to comply with my issue. ( I could of come to the conclusion of complying on my own, I was seeking advice of an attorney to help me fight the case, since I knew I was not in the wrong). Consulting with this law group turned out to be a waste of my money. read more

Just finished our contract with Katje and I can say i'm very pleased with their help and service. Our situation with a Karen-like management company was frustrating because we knew we were right but the only way of getting some respect was by hiring legal counsel. Katje's group knew exactly what was needed and guided us in the right direction. My only criticism was that they could use a little more communication with their client and some organization to remember details previously sent. Overall I would definitely recommend Katje! read more

Called about a consultation about a landlord issue. The "lawyer" was very unprofessional and unwelcoming. Didn't identify himself of give any consultation advice as to what my options were. Would not recommend to Update: That is FALSE, he spent no longer than 5 mins with me on the phone and did not cover any legal aspects whatsoever. The intaker gave me more information than this so called attorney. He didn't explain to me my rights as a tenant and what would warrant a legal break from a lease who's landlords are breaking local laws. Your "attorney" never made any mention of how long my case would take or anything like that was ever discussed. So either your mistaken me for someone else or your office really has no idea what it's doing. read more

This is by far the most dishonest unprofessional law firm I have ever had to deal with. I had a consultation with Melissa King, I was given the agreement to sign and to make a payment of $500 for her work which I did on time. I was made assure that within a week I will get the letter ready. After a week I haven't heard back from her so I sent an email asking about it, she assured me it will be emailed to me by the end on the same day and if not I will get it earliest next week. Fast forward to today, almost two weeks now and I finally got the wrong letter. I want them to refund my money back I really don't want to do business with them anymore.Not only they wasted my time but their way of handling business is unacceptable. You as a business require they payment and the paperwork to be signed and as a client I want the service to be on time. I really don't recommend this place to anyone. Please save your time and money somewhere else. Very unethical for the amount they charge for the quality of service they provide. **Update** I was contacted by Katrina informing me the September is not in the office today and asked me if she can call me tomorrow, I declined and asked for a refund back. Guess what happened? September signed a paper to refund me the money an hour later!!!! I thought she was gone for the day and wasn't in the office to speak to me? Very shady practices please do not use them. read more

I contacted Katje Law Group to hep me with a tenant situation I was in where my son and I were threatened and harassed by an aggressive neighbor and thus had to leave prior to lease ending for our safety. The property management refused to work with me in any way, despite having provided them with ample documentation. Katje listened to me and worked with me from start to finish, but also was always very conscientious of my bill. Anything that the paralegal could do they had her do which saved me so much money and she was great!! I want to give a special thank you to Keyra. She was so professional, kind, and efficient. I was shocked with what a difference hiring Katje made! My case was resolved swiftly and favorably after hiring them. Such a relief!! read more

Very unprofessional! I was assigned to Attorney Dee for a phone consultation, and I was asked to email some documents related to my case to her before our appointment; however, I don't feel she even bothered to take a quick look before our appointment. During the entire consultation, I felt I just paid someone to read my documents for me, and none of my questions was clearly answered. Towards the end, I was asked to sign a retainer to have her to draft a Demand Letter for me. I expressed that I don't mind to sign it if she could take care of my case for me. However, I was ignored after the consultation! I tried emailing and calling the paralegal, Laura, to ask for the retainer, but she never replies emails or returns phone calls. I had to call multiple times in order to talk to her, and the only answer I got is that everything was forwarded to the attorney and I should just wait for them to email me. Now, a few weeks passed, I never received any response from this firm. I had to start over again with another law firm to resolve my issue. Don't waste time and money here! read more
