Maureen was the third attorney to take a crack at my complex civil issue, regarding a nasty ongoing…read morecivil dispute. The situation was at a scary tipping point when I contacted Wahl Law. Maureen reviewed the work the other attorneys' previous to her had done, and she recommended a very different approach; a new path. Looking back, going with Maureen is the best decision I made. She took control of the situation and her primary goal was to achieve my desired outcome, not to run up absurdly high legal bills. Maureen was all about strategy, not "scorched earth." Her strategy prevailed, and I'm so happy I listened to her. She beat my expectations, at a fraction of the price other attorney's quoted to deal with my entire situation. Maureen can be very tough, but she did so only when it was necessary, and when things got real chippy. She really develops a strategy and a plan, and she is excellent at communicating the plan to her clients. She is extremely personable, a good listener, honest and she made me very comfortable. If you are looking for an excellent attorney, who will guide you truthfully, professionally and solely in your best interest, contact Maureen. I guarantee you'll be happy you did.

I've worked with dozens of attorneys in the last couple of years. Maureen is refreshingly able to…read moremake complex situations simple. She has a knack with explanations and simple metaphors to help me get past the legalese and to the heart of the matter. A fast - but clear - talker, Maureen often works around my sometimes strained availability ("Maureen, I've got two minutes, can you explain it in that much time?"). And her billing is extremely fair. I also appreciate that she tells me when she's approaching the limits of her expertise. Maureen is an all-around rockstar legal strategist, and she's first on my list for business and real-estate matters.

I've worked with two other estate planners, compared to whom Roy Johnston has clearly superior skills, experience, and temperament. Now, following a few meetings, and at very reasonable cost, I've got a reliable plan for dealing with both the uncertainties and inevitabilities in my future.

Roy Johnston was excellent in helping us put together a family trust…read more He took us through the somewhat tedious process step by step in such a way that it did not feel tedious. He broke up the process into measurable tasks, and guided us through each step with consummate professionalism, aplomb, and humor. We felt like our financial issues were in the hands of someone who was not only an eminently capable attorney but also someone who genuinely cared about his clients and the quality of his work. His support staff was similarly capable, helpful and relational. My wife and I give Roy and the Law offices of Johnston Thomas the highest recommendation for this kind of legal work.

Due to a very sensitive legal matter, I found myself in search of an attorney who would be able to…read moretake matters into their own hands and help me seek justice. My case was very emotional and life changing in many ways. Originally, Traci Carillo took my case on as the lead attorney and although multiple attorneys have assisted throughout my journey, attorney Regan Masi ultimately wrapped things up and handled business. Not only was Regan very calm, cool and collected, but he was also very sensitive and comforting towards me while I was struggling big time. Regan's communication was beyond expectations. He was a very clear and effective communicator who explained all the legal jargon to me without making me feel bad. In fact, Regan made me feel like someone actually cared about me and what I went through. I hope to never have the need for legal help, but if I do, I will without a doubt contact Perry Johnson Law firm and ask for Regan Masi. He drove my case to the finish line with utmost respect and grace. I am forever grateful to all that have assisted me on my difficult journey. I am relieved to be able to move forward with my life and they have helped me regain my sense of faith in our judicial system. Thank you Regan Masi!

He was efficient and caring and explained each step to us as we proceeded with our case. I have worked with lawyers most of my working life and these folks are stellar. I would hire them again if the need arose. It was indicated that a review would be helpful to his firm, but would have sought a way to do it anyway as we all need to look at recommendations for so many things life presents us with, and especially when it comes to the law. A good professional helps. And the Perry firm has them.

I couldn't wait to log into Yelp and leave a review for this law practice. Lost my house and…read moreeverything I own in the Tubbs fire in 2017. It took five years, three subpar (bankrupt) contractors before I hired my fourth and final contractor. My fourth contractor had good intentions, but put some good AND some very poor subcontractors on my job. Then I got in the middle of a minor invoice dispute with my current contractor. It involved unpaid subcontractors and also some "warranty work". These are things that could turn ugly very quickly. I reached out to North Coast Builders Exchange, and also the California State Licensing Board for advice. I was told that my understanding of the proper way to handle this dispute, was correct. I also decided to reach out to a law firm just to be prepared, in case things got ugly. Dan Galvin was the attorney that North Coast Builders Exchange recommended. When I called this law firm Thursday, I was told that Mr. Galvin was already out of the office, and I probably would not hear from him until Monday. The office manager told me that he usually does not work on Fridays. So I was quite surprised when Dan Galvin's caller ID showed up on my phone today, his off day. I explained my situation, and he listened closely. He gave me very sound advice. During the nearly 30 minute conversation I was expecting him to push towards litigation. I expected him to try to rope me into some kind of a commitment to hire him. I kept adding layers and layers of complication and detail to my conversation with him, expecting him to cut me off and tell me that we should probably sign some sort of agreement before I go any further. During the entire conversation, he kept listening and offering good advice, while I quietly waited for his request for a credit card number, or something! I kept looking at my watch wondering, "How much more free advice is this gentleman going to keep giving me?" It was an added bonus, that he seemed to know background on the contractors. So his advice was particularly sound. It got to the point in the conversation where I said to myself, "This attorney is going to let me keep talking until I have nothing left to say." So I thanked him for his advice, and told him that if things could not get resolved one on one with my contractor, I would be retaining his services. Cannot tell you how impressed I was with Mr. Galvin. He listened closely to everything I said, gave me what I thought was very sound advice, did not at all come across like he was looking for a way to "cash in" on my problem. Having said that, I think I have found my Santa Rosa law firm any time I need a Santa Rosa based attorney in the future!
