I came into this office in Aug of 2020 at the recommendation of a friend…read more It was a straightforward divorce which just needed the papers filed for me. For this service I paid $850, which I had to scrape together to afford. Again, just papers to be filed. All the information necessary for all the paperwork needed was given that first day. The initial paperwork was filed. It was months later before the other party was even contacted. The other party signed papers and returned them to this office...then nothing. When called/emailed, I was told I needed to give them more information, the exact information I had given on that first day. Every call and email after that I was asked to give the same information I'd given on that first day. No other steps have been taken since 2020. Zero. I have emailed, I have called, I have visited the office in person...nothing but promises. My last physical visit was on May 27, 2020, right before the Memorial day holiday. I came into the office and I sat right across from Michael who told me that he would drop the next step's paperwork to the drop box at the Indio courthouse the following Monday (which turned out to be Memorial day,) so even though the drop box is available anytime, I gave him the benefit of time and figured he would drop it off on that Tuesday. During this face-to-face meeting in Michael's office, Michael told me that it takes a week for the court to process for a court date and that once I received the court date I would be coming into the office to see him for the next step. Nothing happened. No papers were dropped off at the courthouse. I waited extra time just in case. By June 13th I heard nothing and called Michael to see what the status of my paperwork was and he told me that he was busy and would call me the following morning. No call the next morning or any time after that. It is now July 1, 2022. I called the office to ask for an update. I talked to the front desk receptionist who told me that Michael wasn't in, that he was gone on medical leave and he might be back in the office next week or maybe the week after. I asked her who was Michael's supervisor and she told me he works for himself and has no supervisor. I asked if Weider was in charge of the office and she said yes...yet nothing can be done. Nobody in this office cares about you or your case. I see others have had near identical issues and I'm willing to bet that there are far more people who have gone through this or are going through this who haven't come forward. Why can this business get away with taking people's money and doing nothing? Stringing people along as if something's going to happen then, again, do nothing. If the people who work in this office are not to be held accountable and there are zero consequences for taking people's money and not delivering the services promised then how are they still in business and allowed to be involved with people's legal issues? This office had made a very simple paperwork situation into a two year panic where the other person involved has now vanished and can't be found. If this office had delivered the services as promised then this wouldn't have ever been an issue and I'd be here singing their praises. I literally, just needed all the papers filed by knowledgeable people, they told me they were the right people for this service. If you value your time, your money, your sanity, then do not use this business for any of your needs.

A Terrible Experience After a consultation with Michael C…read more Peterson of Arnold, Peterson & Christie in Palm Springs, I decided to retain his services and scheduled our first meeting. Within seconds of sitting down, I felt uncomfortable and humiliated. When I proposed sharing a written list of questions that I had used ChatGPT to review and edit, he told me, in a tone I found degrading, that if I ever handed him anything that had gone through AI again, he would no longer work with me. He asked whether I understood. I said yes, yet he asked me the same question two more times. I stood up, said, "This is not going to work," and walked out. He followed me through the front door and offered what felt like a partial apology. I repeated that this was not going to work and left. I came prepared with questions and expected a respectful discussion. Instead, I felt belittled and intimidated. In my experience, his conduct was unprofessional and lacked the compassion I expected from a family law attorney. Based on this interaction, I would not recommend him.

I reached…read moreout to him during an extremely stressful and uncertain time in my life, and from day one he brought a level of reassurance and calm that I truly needed. He told me things would work out, and even though the process was long, he stayed true to his word. What really impressed me was how available and responsive he was. Anytime I had a question or concern, he picked up the phone or called me back quickly. He explained everything clearly, never made me feel rushed, and was incredibly patient throughout the entire process. You can tell he genuinely cares about the people he represents. Because of his expertise, preparation, and dedication, I ended up with the best possible outcome, something I honestly didn't think was possible when this all started. What could have been a chaotic and overwhelming time in my life was completely avoided because of him. If you're looking for an attorney who is not only highly skilled but also compassionate, honest, and truly committed to his clients, I can't recommend Mr. Kaftal enough. He went above and beyond for me, and I'm genuinely grateful for everything he did.

Our relationship started in April 2024 with initial contact with Parker Stewart , Salvatore…read moreBommarito's assistant. Very pleasant and things started out well and we had an in office visit a few day later. Sal was pleasant, we talked about our defamation defense, wine, golf and other things. We asked Sal if we should respond to the letter from the prosecutor's office but were advised to wait and see if things escalate. We took his advise. Things then escalated and after a few emails with Parker we were advised their trial calendar was very busy and to contact one of Sal's "colleagues". I then sent what turned out to be the final email asking if said colleague was going to be brought up to speed on our case without a cost to us. After this we were ghosted. I would recommend you do your homework, I obviously did not do enough myself. This obviously is not in his wheelhouse and I was asking for results.

I came to Mr Orr's office for Estate planning. I was impressed by everyone whom I worked. I felt…read morethat they valued me not just as a client, but as a person, and they each made a personal connection with me. I met originally with Mr Orr, and subsequently worked closely with Bethany on document drafting. I had quite a lot of very specific language that I wanted included/omitted. This resulted in several drafts. Each time, I received the revised documents in a timely matter; the documents accurately reflected my wishes and concerns; and Bethany used the additions and omissions, our conversations, and smart, insightful questions, to draft documents that fully reflected my wishes. I also worked with Maureen, who was equally sharp. In my career, I was an Executive Director (managing paralegal), running an IP Enforcement department at a major Hollywood studio. So I think I know a bit about what comprises good legal work and good client relations. This law firm excels at both. Turning to cost, I found the total cost for the entire package of documents to be reasonable, particularly considering the amount of work that went into them, and additional work produced as a result of them, such as re-recording deeds. I highly recommend this law firm on the basis of both excellent work and superb client care.
