I know small businesses are all struggling during this pandemic and that's why I want to write a…read morereview for Silveira Law and recommend Mike for any traffic related criminal defense. I did a free consultation with Mike last November for a minor legal matter. He was in court when I reached out but his secretary took my information down and arranged a phone call quickly. From the moment I spoke with him, I knew he was the kind of lawyer I wanted to hire. He laughed after I told him my minor legal matter and assured me not to worry. He advised that a legal representation was not needed for my particular situation. He was so honest, personable, and cool that I felt relieved immediately after talking to him. His price was also the most fair and reasonable among the three attorneys I consulted with. No wonder another reviewer said Mike should be nicknamed "Magic Mike". I can totally see why. If you are looking for a no BS lawyer who can fight and defend you, Mike is the guy!

I was arrested for a felony hit and run, which injured a pedestrian. The prosecutor demanded from…read morea court that I serve months in jail. I am a nurse and I thought that would be the end of my life and my career. It was the darkest time in my life that I lost trust in the system and humans. During this time, I found and retained attorney Thomas Fleming. He assured me everything would be ok. Throughout the legal process, Thomas guided me every step, recommending a number of activities that are good for my case, and also helped me grow as a person. Thomas then used these activities and my growth in court as one of many reasons why the court should give me a second chance despite any mistakes I may have made. Thomas then asked the judge to divert and dismiss my case. The prosecutor strongly objected to this. But, amazingly, the judge believed and agreed with Thomas, and granted his request to divert and dismiss my case. Amazing but true, the court dismissed my case at his request! Thomas then filed a motion to seal any record of my arrest, the court granted as well! Thomas has a lot of faith. I found him to be a smart, trustworthy, honest, professional, compassionate and genuinely cared for me as a person. He got to know me and my family as well. He always wanted the best for me, it showed in the result. God bless Thomas!

I recently got charged with a DUI and AI told me that Thomas was the best DUI attorney in the Bay…read moreArea. This turned out to not only be accurate but one of the best decisions I could have made. I have a prior felony DUI w/injury, when I stupidly caught this one I knew this would be a felony dui and thought my life was over and I would be in jail, away from my wife and daughters. Through the Grace of God and Thomas's experience that is not happening Although I blew a .146 and have a prior felony DUI, the DUI was reduced to only a wet reckless and I only have 2 days of community service. Everything will be expunged from my record in one year! Thomas responded immediately when I first reached out and stayed calm and patient with me while I could barely even speak without crying my eyes out. He gives clear instructions on exactly what you need to do and exactly what he is going to be doing. I can not stress this enough, it's not just about you following his instructions to get out of trouble it's about following instructions to change the course of your life. I truly believe that this experience in my life happened for a reason and that Thomas was put in my path on purpose. I now have a relationship with God and have had repeated blessings come my way and I just can't be more thankful . On top of working a legit miracle on my behalf Thomas also offered his services until my post conviction hearing is completed even though his contractual obligations are fulfilled! For anybody with doubt, uncertainty, or in a position like I was in, Thomas is your guy! Do the work and really mean it and let him take care of the rest ! "Have Faith, Not Fear" is what he told me on that first phone call and it was hard to do at first but I figured it out eventually what that actually means, and you can too! Thomas truly works miracles and transforms peoples lives!

Finally catching up on writing Yelp reviews, and this one is long overdue…read more Silveira Law has successfully represented me a total of 4 times in the last year and a half. All moving violations throughout Alameda County. All dismissed either due to officer not present or because Atty. Silveira is a master at what he does. On one particular case, I sat in the courtroom and watched Mike fight on my behalf remotely on Zoom. The officer had a grudge against me and showed up to court nearly 2 years after he issued the citation (atypical). Mike's cross-examination techniques are so effective--within minutes, my case was dismissed and the officer literally stormed out of the court room in anger and glared at me on his way out. If I wasn't required to wear a face mask in the court room, I would have been picking up my jaw from the floor. I've sat through nearly all of my court cases and watched how other lawyers represent their clients. Mike actually FIGHTS on your behalf, most people hire an attorney who PLEADS OUT and never gets to a stage where the officer is cross-examined. Respect law enforcement, but also hold them accountable. Never put yourself in the court room without proper representation. Long story short: read a few more reviews--they're 5 Stars for a reason, then hire Silveira Law. Response times can be slow because the firm is busy, so plan accordingly. You'll interact mainly with his paralegals by emailing copies of your citation/license, then hear nothing until your case is dismissed. Showing up to court may or may not be required, but if you do show up, you might have the pleasure of watching Mike serve a masterclass in the court room. Trust the process, enjoy the results. Thank you Mike!

As a physician navigating an extraordinarily stressful legal situation, I quickly realized how…read morecritical it is to have the right lawyer in your corner.

I cannot recommend Geller Law highly enough!…read more I reached out to Mr. Geller after having a very discouraging experience with a previous attorney who was unresponsive, dismissive, and made me feel like a criminal rather than a full time working professional. I was already under a lot of stress, and that lack of communication made things significantly worse. From the moment I contacted Geller Law, the experience was completely different. Lauryn Bradley, the paralegal, spoke with me right away when I was panicking and took the time to listen, explain the process, and reassure me. She immediately scheduled a consultation with Mr. Geller, and both of them were incredibly accommodating and calm throughout the entire process. Mr. Geller clearly explained my situation, set realistic expectations, and most importantly gave me peace of mind. He and Lauryn handled every aspect of my case with professionalism and care, allowing me to continue focusing on my work without constantly worrying about legal details. They were very clear about what was needed from me, and whenever they requested something, communication was prompt and straightforward. Another thing that truly mattered to me was that Mr. Geller personally showed up to every court appearance. I was never left to attend court alone or unsure of what to do. Having him present each time made a stressful situation far more manageable and reinforced my confidence that my case was being taken seriously. What truly sets this firm apart is responsiveness. Emails and questions were answered quickly and thoroughly, which made an enormous difference during a stressful time. I always felt informed, respected, and supported. I feel extremely fortunate to have found Geller Law. If you are looking for a legal team that is competent, responsive, and genuinely cares about their clients, I would recommend Mr. Geller and Lauryn without hesitation!

He doesn't normally take cases in my county, so he recommended two great lawyers. I have to say, Tom Maas who he recommended and I went to see the next day was everything that Sam promised. Sam even followed up with me early in the morning and asked that I let him know how it goes. Did I mention, if it didn't work out, Sam was willing to make an exception and take our case. Don't hesitate going with Sam, he makes things happen, extremely trustworthy and upfront, super responsive, and makes sure you're taken care of.

One of the worst companies that I have ever worked with. Here is why…read more First after signing to represent me for two cases I never received any phone calls from them whatsoever. Second, I did call them myself 2 days before my court trial was set, and FINALLY spoke with A representative by the name of Luis who told me that I have nothing to worry about and that somebody from the company, I said above I had already hired them two months before my trial was set, and Luis confirmed twice to me during that phone conversation that someone from the company will come and represent me. Nothing of the sort occurred. The company completely lied to me. Absolutely nobody from the company came to represent me during my court trial despite like I said above I had hired them long time before my court date exactly for that purpose. Also when I called them when I found out that I had lost the case, they had the absolute insolence to claim that they had called me and wore me a day or two before my court date. Nobody ever called me ever since I hired them. The only person who ever called them, was me and that was only when I became aware that nobody called me and then 3 days before my trial I decided to call them , just like I said above. and find out what's going on. I already related this story above. They provided extremely extremely unprofessional and bad service. Because of them I lost the case. They are so disrespectful of their clients, that not only they didn't call me all to let me know that they would never show for my trial, and if they had to call me to notify me that they would no longer represent me, they should have done that at least a week and a half before my trial, as that would have been THE ONLY WAY they would have given me ample time to replace them. But not only they never communicated with me that they would never show on my trial, they also completely failed to offer ANOTHER attorney replacement. YES THE CALIFORNIA ATTORNEY PROFESSIONAL CODE OF CONDUCT clearly stipulates that the attorney must always fin a suitable replacement if they cannot themselves represent their clients. Also during my follow-up conversation they continue to lie, fire Luis a representative from the company, forcedly yelled at me during my phone conversation that the company never offers any refunds. I called them again and spoke with the representative by the name of Delilah, I think that's how her name is spelled as she refused to provide me with the spelling of her name, another unprofessional conduct. Anyway during my conversation she lied that the company had tried to contact me, ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE AS I HAD SHOWN ABOVE, continue to provide other lives about how I was refunded and so was and what date and so on. I just dropped the call. No use arguing with crooks and thieves. Yes they are absolutely dishonest, they lie to your face just to get your money and then they never deliver never deliver on what they promise. They should be disbarred and they should be fined they should never be allowed to practice law in California. The most dishonest, treacherous and lying company that I have ever worked with. Stay away from them and never again sign for them.

I spent well over 10k for a simple restraining order case. If you don't pay they will threaten to drop your case. Even a day before trial the OWNER was rude, disrespectful and threatening me to find a new attorney even though my court date was the next day. All because I questioned their shady behavior. They call me for $1500 I pay it no problem. They literally call the next day and demand another $2500! I didn't appreciate how they can't communicate with me the first time. Instead of explaining they get defensive and would rather me find a new attorney because I am not happy with their service. If a bill isn't paid a few days after receiving it they will call and threaten you again with dropping your case. The trial was an absolute joke. Not one objection, didn't follow the case plane (which Grace wrote out well) but was not executed. No eveidence just hear say, lies and no supporting evidence. Do it yourself before paying these people. Worst of all after everything was done they had the nerve to send me a bill for another $2500! Please do yourself a favor and represent yourself or find someone else! They will take your money and you will get nothing out of it.
