I finished my strategy meeting with Andrew Herzog regarding my current HOA issues and my ongoing…read morewater mitigation claim. I appreciate a professional who allows clients to address them by their first name, removing formal titles to make people feel at ease. The strategy session was informative and left me with more confidence regarding my ongoing claim. I arrived with thorough documentation and did my absolute best to provide the proper information to ensure the meeting went smoothly, which I hope made it easy for Andrew to dissect the exact points I am arguing. Andrew was realistic with all the potential outcomes, and I can appreciate that fact as it doesn't leave an individual with a false sense of hope. You have to go into these sessions with an open mind and consider all possible outcomes. HOAs are difficult to work with; while this is my first experience with one, it has been a significant learning lesson. I now know that for my next property, I will ensure there is no HOA involved. I appreciate firms like Lubin Pham + Caplin for helping individuals navigate the complexities and negative actions that HOAs put their residents through. Thank you Andrew.

Even though I didn't have the money to afford a retainer that time, Tony referred me to a paralegal who instruction by instruction helped me get through the process and delay it until I saved enough money to retain services of The Law Offices of Mark S.

Even when I didn't have money for a retainer, they showed me how to delay time until I did.

Nice enough guy and seemed to know what he was doing. I was so convinced that I hired them twice for the same ongoing issue, so I paid a total of $5,000. At trial on the last date, I specifically asked Mr. Hunter to make sure that I would get a reasonable portion of my deposit back. He assured me that all the boxes were checked correctly and to make sure that I left the place broom swept. I also had another case with this company and so my other attorney was trying to prepare something and he needed to include my deposit return, but couldn't find it in the documents submitted. I called Mr. Hunter and was explaining to me that it was right there...then he pulled up the document himself and noticed he missed something and that my deposit was forfeited. He said, "sorry, I messed up" and got off the phone. My deposit was $5,000, what I had paid them! I reached out to Mr. Martinez to report the issue. He said Mr. Hunter was on vacation and would follow up once he got back on the 16th of July. It is the 27th. I have reached out twice and now Mr. Martinez will not respond. So my recommendation is to stay away from this law firm. I understand that mistakes happen, but take accountability, and more importantly, follow up. The fact that they have done neither shows that integrity is not their strong suit, and that makes them HORRIBLE at best!

What really stood out the most was Art's experience. From beginning to end his approach to my case was one of confidence because of his ability to approach the matter strategically without losing sight of what mattered most to me. He truly spoke on my behalf during a difficult time to ensure my case was heard. I felt supported, informed, and extremely well represented. Art Travieso and the Travieso Law Firm are not only experienced and prepared, they are honest and truly committed to their clients. They are worth every penny. I highly recommend the Travieso Law Firm!

What fantastic service!…read more My family and I reached out to receive advice on liability (a leak in the HOA's exterior wall led to mold in my unit), and Sam Khil provided a remarkably detailed breakdown of everything we needed to know. We had questions as well, and he was able to respond with off-the-cuff citations of specific codices. He remained patient and helpful when certain elements were confusing to us, and even went thirty minutes long at no extra charge! I know his schedule must not always allow for such generosity. Still, the fact that he chooses to offer that when he can only serves to demonstrate how committed he is to providing the best possible care for his clients and potential clients. He was very clear about costs as well, offering refreshingly honest evaluations of our potential needs, benefits, and fees. The entire company seems very well run, providing thorough expertise in their area of focus. Should my family and I ever need to engage a lawyer in a more extended capacity, we will definitely be choosing MBK Chapman!

Owner Hi Brian, I think you will need to consult a NH attorney for this. Mike I am in NH. The property in question is in CA. The whole point of why I was seeking a CA attorney was that I needed someone well versed in CA real estate law, especially Prop 13 law. So for him to say I needed a NH attorney (who would know nothing about CA RE law and Prop 13 law) was exactly the opposite of what I needed, and showed he was not exactly on top of things, either then or later in his response to the review. As for "I do not handle that type of law" in the review response, their web site lists "REAL ESTATE" as one of the areas of expertise for Attorney Michael K. Wolder. So I think there's more "confusion" here, too, either in the initial query response or the review response.
