My mother died in February and my sisters and I needed a trust attorney to help us navigate through…read morethe many forms needed to get her trust in order. We met with Michael Chielpegian who gave us some general information and made copies of all our paperwork. He then billed us on a monthly basis for administrative costs... (?) We never received any correspondence from him or his office unless we initiated it, and then the responses were short and curt. When twice we dropped in because we had questions, Doris, who was one of the assistants, was rude and very unprofessional and made it know that we were not welcome. She never greeted us with anything other than a look of disdain on her face. Now Mr. Chielpegian has called us and told us he thinks we would be happier with a different attorney (he's firing us)... and he's right. I'm sure there has to be a trust attorney out there who is willing to take the time to actually work WITH a client, not just bill them. Unless you are a large account that will make them lots of money, don't bother calling this office. Arrogant beyond.

I have absolute confidence in his ability to effectively represent my interests. I have a rather complicated case that he has spent numerous hours researching to ensure that I received the appropriate medical care as well as compensation. He has done an outstanding job maximizing my benefits and insuring that my interests are fully protected. Consider yourself fortunate if you can retain his services. His office is quick to respond to questions or concerns and will go to extraordinary lengths to ensure you understand the status of your case. Frankly, I doubt I would have achieved the level of satisfaction I have received had I been represented by any other attorney. He has been tenacious in advancing my interests during every legal proceeding.

I was so friggen madd the day that I went into this office, (yes that is two D D s) I mean the kind of mad that makes going postal look like duck duck goose, Mr Ibarra took me in a room, and let me just say this, it was hard to stay mad for long periods of time. Instead of taking offense to my sense of humor that usually only I understand. Mr Ibarra did not take it personal. He actually liked my humor and laughed at all the appropriate times. Which tells us one of two things, either he is lucky and nods his head and smiles at all the appropriate times OR He is actually one of us. Meaning that he gets it and he does care. From the moment I walked into that office. Either they knew that I was a loose cannon and I could be instrumentally dangerous or he really did take a personal interest in my case. Neither here nor there. He never let another phone call slip through the cracks. HE fought for me tooth and nail and I believe that if the system would not have had me in a position, as they do with everyone, where I was starving and almost homeless, he would have gotten a lot for me. He did the best could with the situation that was in front of him. Since my case, David did not throw me aside, like a pile of trash unlike my former company that I had devoted my life too. Instead, he picks up the phone through his busy day. He really does care. Im not advising you to go crazy and do what I did, it doesn't work for everyone. You have to have the look like I do for it to work :) But you can know that Mr Ibarra is the shizneck and I absolutely think that he rocks like Slayer. Thank you Mr Ibarra . I think Mr Goldberg should be grateful and thankful that he has this gentleman on his team and everyone should take some pointers from him. I also wanted to say thank you to Mrs Mena who is the paralegal at this law-firm. She is truly the "Rice: behind the President. We all know that when rice stood behind silently the president all those years that she was calling the shots. Well Mrs Mena, you too, rock like slayer! They are nothing without you and you deserve a raise. :) Tell Goldberg I approve it and you should see it on your next paycheck. ;) Have a great day, Deborah Shipp

This review is a follow-up to a review previously written…read more When I wrote my initial review in October, it was done so with an overwhelming amount of gratitude and appreciation. I now find myself in an even deeper state of appreciation for Eric, not only what he stands for, but for WHO he is. This mans conviction for doing the right thing, even when not prompted shows he stands firmly rooted in his dedication to stay the course to make sure his client is well represented. Moreover, his dedication to the rule of law is without question, above reproach. It is worth noting that when I had spoken with the majority of other legal counsel about this, the attitudes expressed were more obtuse in nature. There were some whose empathy was sincere, the end result was nothing could be done. This happened for three plus years. Then, as I had outlined before, when Eric reviewed my case, he saw it for what it was; a 1385 dismissal. Eric handled the case with extreme efficiency and efficacy. In and out of court in 10 minutes - acknowledgement of the original dismissal per PC1385 and all civil liberties restored. I thought this was the end. I was wrong. The issue I have been faced with now is the feds and their refusal to acknowledge the restoration of my firearms rights. We're now five months into this battle with the feds. During this time, Eric has been at my side, assisting me in the best way he knew how with the issues at hand at that time. How was he there? He listened, he understood, he empathized, he provided insight and when necessary, Eric took action without any prompting. Who does that anymore? Eric! The first time I experienced Eric taking action was when I had been CC'd in an email sent to the feds. I was floored. It was something I did not ask for, nor even to think of and certainly had not expected. He did what was right because it was the right thing to do. A testament to his personal ethos making sure he was providing the best representation. Needless to say, a much deeper sense of appreciation and more importantly, respect, was rooted. In regards to the feds' continued refusal, we have come to an impasse. They have refused to acknowledge our nation's laws and the court order. Eric once again took action. He didn't say what he was going to do, he just did it then notified me of what was going to happen. A court date has been set to have the record reflect my conviction was set aside. I believe this is pursuant to PC1018 and 1473.7 respectively. I'm not overly concerned about the what's or how's at the moment as I know whatever it is, it is in my best interest. Details will be provided to me when he and I have time to discuss it. As I begin to close this addendum to my previous review, I cannot emphasize enough how well you will be represented when represented by Eric Schweitzer. Furthermore, we all know that a successful attorney cannot succeed alone. Eric has at his side two exceptional women, Angel and Latisha who are the magic and make it possible for Eric to excel at doing what he does best; representing his client. When you speak with either of them, rest-assured, they will make sure you are well taken care of and any needs expressed, will be promptly addressed. In closing, regardless of how long you have been trying to get representation for the particular issue you are facing, when bringing your case to Eric to review, rest easy in the knowledge that if he can help you, you will not find better representation.
