Sara Naheedy was recommended to me by a cousin after I realized the attorney I was working with was not a good advocate for me, and had not presented me with all my legal options before beginning to negotiate with the other party. On the first day of working together, Sara looked at my documentation as well as researching the other party. She discovered two important facts pertinent to my case which my old lawyer had never even mentioned. Sara continued to help me with the same level of precision and support through our entire relationship. She was also exceptional in handling the other party's aggressive and unprofessional attorney, who was blatantly attempting to shake me down for an outrageous amount of money. She pushed back repeatedly and not only to follow the law, he ended up stepping down all together because he was no match for her. Sara is sharp as a whip. Her expertise, strength and fearlessness were great assets to me during an incredibly stressful period. I highly recommend her as a mediation expert and fierce advocate. read more

I had an excellent experience working with Sara and cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, she was professional, attentive, and truly a pleasure to work with. She handled my case with integrity and efficiency, focusing on exactly what needed to be done without ever making me feel taken advantage of. Sara demonstrated a high level of expertise and carried herself with great professionalism throughout the entire process. She communicated clearly, stayed on top of every detail, and ensured that everything was handled smoothly and effectively. What stood out most was her honesty and straightforward approach--she did her job exceptionally well without any unnecessary complications. If you are looking for an attorney who is reliable, ethical, and highly capable, Sara is the one to trust. I am incredibly grateful for her work and would not consider going to anyone else in the future. read more

I highly recommend Sara Naheedy Law. I am a real estate broker and there are times when you need legal advice and or legal assistance with a legal matter. There are many real estate attorneys out there but few that actually have a real estate broker's license. I highly recommend Sara. She is really passionate and genuinely cares about a favorable resolution. read more

I was embroiled in a dispute with my landlord, the Irvine Company, that involved me needing to temporarily vacate my rental unit. I sought counsel from another local law practitioner, but they referred me to Sara. After doing extensive research into finding a lawyer to represent me, I was happy to find Sara. In my search, I realized that there aren't many well-reviewed housing attorneys in or around the Orange County area that will take on matters for tenants. Many housing attorneys seem geared to serve landlords as clients, which makes sense since they are generally well-resourced and can be repeat clients instead of tenants (who are less likely to frequently use legal services). That is why I am grateful that Sara agreed to work with me after hearing me out during the consultation call. Together, we achieved the results I wanted. Sara communicated my concerns and requests to the Irvine Company's counsel in a timely and professional fashion. I believe having her represent me also added gravitas to my position since the Irvine Company was more agreeable to negotiating with me once I brought Sara onboard. Sara was also very respectful, professional, proactive, and helpful during the course of her time representing me. There were some small hiccups early on (e.g. Sara mistakenly communicating my concerns to an incorrect email recipient, some minor grammatical errors in the retainer agreement) that alarmed me, but the quality of her service improved quickly over time and allayed my concerns. I recommend her as a trustworthy attorney to represent you. I also wanted to nuance a previous reviewer's point regarding Sara's billing rate. Although I am currently a law student, this is my first time seeking a legal service of this nature. That said, first-time clients of legal services may have "sticker shock" when seeing that an attorney is charging a seemingly high rate for what seems to be relatively straightforward task to do. But, it's normal for attorneys to charge the same billable hour rate for whatever task they engage in. Sara is also a self-practitioner and her rate, I believe, is reasonable for someone who has to pay for her own overhead by herself. My advice for fiscally conscious people is to communicate any concerns like this with Sara early on, and explore ways together on where you could potentially save money on by, perhaps, doing certain things on your own. But, Sara provides full-service representation so, if you are uncertain about what to do exactly, she will take care of you from start to finish. read more

Sara is very intelligent & knowledgeable about Real Estate. She's also excellent at educating both agents and clients.

We went to Sara to assist us with a complicated issue of our rights being infringed upon with our landlord and 3 neighboring businesses. She was direct and to the point and assisted us in having them correct their behavior. We highly recommend her for for her legal services. Thank you Sara. read more

Sara is a consummate professional: insightful, helpful, and makes complex issues easy to understand. I needed quick counsel on a real estate matter involving a home I inherited. Sara gave excellent advice for the disclosures and other matters that arose where I needed expert counsel and guidance. She is super nice, too (much appreciated), and Paola is extremely responsive to my requests for a quick meeting, getting it done with urgency. This is a great team. So glad I was referred to Sara. read more

Pompous, condescending, interrupted repeatedly, and gave bad info according to other proficient attorneys

Thank you, Sara for all your help with our real estate issue...you really helped us get through a questionable situation. Your expertise and advice were greatly appreciated. I would recommend you to anyone needing guidance, as you helped us keep focused when we were unsure of what we were up against. I just can't thank you enough! You are truly amazing! read more

Thank you, Sara, for helping me out with my prenup process. I particularly appreciate the time that you took to miraculously review my agreement together with me. That was very helpful and insightful. read more

Started with a quick and appropriate action to help me - but then just failed to respond to an important change in my situation - just simply disregarded my email with the request to take next steps - and then simply dropped out saying "you must deal with it yourself". Good attorneys dont treat their clients like this. read more

I had a real estate question and was referred to one attorney, then another and finally I was referred to Sara. She got back to me promptly; we discussed the issue and then she asked me to send her everything that I was concerned about, which were many pages long. She graciously looked over everything, asked another question and then gave her advice. I was under such stress and pressure and to have this lovely lady take time from her busy day to look over something for me and give me advice was absolutely priceless, calming and so kind. I cannot tell you how appreciative and thankful I am that I ended up with Sara and I highly recommend her for your legal needs. read more

Personal experiences come with its challenges specially when going through a divorce in the State of CA. The uncertainty of ones actions and behaviors can be daunting and I can honestly say that Sara and her team really helped me and my children navigate through some difficult times. Helped me focus on the objective And seeing things for what they really are and that is the best interest of my children. The fact that they did everything for the best interest of my children is what kept me hopeful for our future and with their continuous support we were able to get our freedom and find peace without the unnecessary costs and additional heartaches. For that I highly recommend Sara and her team. read more

I hired Sara to assist me with a complex eviction situation involving an already established court judgment. On top of that, there were ever-changing eviction rules which had to be followed due to the pandemic. Sara was great throughout the process; always responsive to emails and phone calls, as well as staying on top of the legal process as the case progressed. I would give her my highest recommendation! read more

For the first time in all my life I had one of those "landlord from hell" situations. Without going into details, I needed an attorney ASAP that new the law, could offer a solution and get results! I had one objective - to terminate a lease and not be held liable for term damages. From the get-go, Sara was a great listener, easy to talk to, and sprung into action. Within 24 hours, we had a signed addendum from both parties terminating the lease - goal accomplished! Very pleased with my experience with Sara and would recommend for any lease conflict you may be experiencing. read more

I had peacefully tried for 2-3 months to break my apartment lease due to partying neighbors (and they were "fugitives" who had been arrested on the property). I was unsuccessful. I contacted Sara on Tuesday, 10/20/2020 and explained the situation. She had a Demand Letter sent to the apartment property manager by end of business the same day, and by Friday, 10/23/2020, the property manager agreed to break my lease. If you are questioning to contact an attorney, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND SARA!! I wish I wouldn't of waited as as long I did. THANKS SO MUCH, SARA!! read more

My brief telephone conversation with Sarah was the single worst phone consult I've experienced with an attorney. From the very first sentence she was compassionless and unsympathetic, even condescending. During the brief 5 mins time she allotted to me, at times she expected me to know about procedures and protocols that a lay person with no academic legal know-how can't possibly know, then expressing exasperation with my lack of familiarity. She ended up hanging up on me as i struggled to squeeze out one last question, pertaining to a matter that is obviously very important to me. She DID wish me "the best of luck" as she spoke over me, totally unconcerned that I might still have relevant questions that require her expertise, as she cut me off mid-sentence and hung up on me...so that's...something. Oh, and she told me she charges $5000, not bothering to elaborate on what kind of services she would render for that amount, but rather using it to segue into a smug condescending remark assuming that my being in the situation I am, I couldn't possibly afford her services anyways. Guess what Sarah, I wouldn't hire you if YOU paid ME that sum, you are cruel and really need to reexamine your bedside manner. PS - Your advice was so wrong and uninformed that I'm shocked you passed the bar. With all the info I gave you, it didn't dawn on you to advise me that I can file an ex parte stay at the courthouse? Instead you're telling me to contact the attorneys of the other party and beg them for clemency, that I'm basically SOL if they don't decide to take pity on me and I ought to start packing? You didn't know about AB 2179? Or you didn't bother to tell me? With how counterproductive your "professional" advice was, I would be shocked to discover that you don't argue your client's traffic infractions into felonies on a regular basis. I wasted a lot of precious time on account of your stupid advice and BARELY eeked out a Notice of Application with a handful of business hours left to spare. Thank God that a real attorney that actually houses an ounce of empathy in his soul was able to counsel me in time to correct the backwards path that your inconceivably terrible advice had me lost in. Shame on you! You ought to be disbarred, my 80 year old mother could have been homeless right now because of your ignorance and malfeasance. Shame! read more

Sara Naheedy is the best attorney that you can have on your side during your time of need. She helped me with a problem as tenant living at an apartment complex (which was owned by a national and big name company) I needed to terminate my lease due to poor living conditions. I didn't know what my rights were as a tenant. I was also terrified of the possible legal retributions associated with breaking an apartment lease. Luckily, Sara was with me every step of the way. In the end, she saved me from months of stress and misery due to the horrible conditions that I faced as a tenant. Why should you choose Sara Naheedy for legal services? 1. You will get a lot of value for the money spent on her legal expertise. - Her knowledge and logical/analytical thinking is impeccable (I remember pointing out one of the many concerns that I had. Sara responded with this creative argument that alleviated me from that worry). She helped me understand my rights as a tenant, and helped me find options that I once thought were unattainable. 2. Sara is approachable and friendly. - Finding an attorney was an intimidating process for me. Sara was easy to talk to. She was never condescending and always listened to what I had to say (mostly rants). 3. Fast and comprehensive communication- whenever I had a question (during business hours) she responded promptly (insanely quick) and fully answered them. Sara Naheedy helped me during a truly difficult time, and I cannot recommend her enough. If you're looking for a professional/knowledgeable/efficient attorney, look no further. read more

Sara was great! We needed help to terminate our current lease. The HOA has done nothing to rectify the unacceptable living situation we had to deal with, with our neighbors and fellow tenants. We had for months tried to deal with this on our own. We had given up and thought we were doomed to stay here for our lease, but Sara was very quick and efficient. She responded immediately to all of our questions and concerns. She had a great demeanor and was easy to work with. She also does not play around and was able to get us out of our lease at no fault to us. I would highly recommend her. read more

Highly recommend contacting her if you are in need of any help. read more

Sara is epically amazing at getting the job done. I had a real estate situation that was unique and complex. My home had many additional liens, tied up equity that I could never touch. I owned a home for 16 years and felt like I was renting. I couldn't ever feel the benefits of home ownership and I wanted to finally feel like my investment was my own. I had attempted to deal with it on my own for almost a year and it just was not going my way. I was dealing with a major city and all of their red tape and they weren't necessarily interested in helping me. I was at my wits end and went on Yelp to find someone with real estate law expertise to help me. I read the positive reviews left for Sara praising her talents and how much she had helped others and I envisioned myself writing a review like that when my situation came to a positive conclusion. Well that time is now! I can without a doubt tell you that Sara helped bring authority and expertise to solve my city issue. She was my advocate and counsel, standing up to the city and their lawyer. When I was worried or had doubts about the success, Sara was reassuring and professional. I couldn't have asked for better counsel. I was concerned, like most people, about having to pay for an attorney. I avoided it for a while because I wanted to "save" money and attempt to deal with it on my own. All I got from that was anxiety, stress and a city who had no interest in helping me or doing what was right. The cost to hire Sara was minuscule compared to the peace of mind it brought me. She was in my corner, fighting along side me and honestly my situation wouldn't have been resolved without her efforts. She was always responsive to my calls or emails and I was never worried or had buyers remorse for hiring her. I can't recommend her enough. If you need a lawyer for real estate concerns, call her!! You will not regret it!!l read more

Our first and only meeting in person, I walked away feeling very confident I hired someone young and up to date in her profession. Turned out I am very disappointed by her representation. It is apparent she doesn't deal with prenups, which she stated she does at our first meeting and seems new to her profession I found along the way. I won't go into detail, as the list is long. The last email I sent her, she once again forwarded to the opposing party, yes, forwarded my full email, when I previously expressed my concerns and asked her not to, as she did previously. I had to reach out to a friend who has her own family law practice in another town, which I originally didn't do as we didn't want friends involved in our personal business. Thankfully, she read through the prenup that the opposing party drew, in detail and did her job the first time, expressing several concerns and answered my concerns in detail. Every email to Sara she responded back, asking me to email her how I would like certain areas worded, that I didn't agree with and "that it needs to be what I am comfortable with" or "that sounds fair. Well no kidding, but this isn't my profession, that is why I seeked her to have my back. First clue should have been her price was significantly lower than other firms I contacted. In this case, the saying "you get what you pay for" is evident! Prior to hiring my friend, my now husband asked his attorney if he would sit down with both my husband and I to try to answer questions I didn't quite understand. Prior to this, I asked Ms. Needy if she felt this was ok, and she highly encouraged me to. Walking away, I felt more confused wondering if he was just telling me what he wanted me to hear, so that is when I seeked my friend, which again, we originally didn't do, as didn't want friends or family involved. Don't let all the 5 star reviews fool you, as they did me. She only got 1, as she was prompt early in, in responding to emails. read more

I highly recommend Sara Naheedy. My husband and I were facing some difficult issues with lease termination with our landlord related to repairs. we were uncertain of our rights and had the further complication of trying to figure out what to do with coronavirus occurring.

I appreciate her swift response and detailed support as this helped give us guidance in a stressful situation. Thank you, Sara! read more

Ms. Naheedy has consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism to me.

Straightforward, responsive & honest. Will reach out again when we have additional needs.

I was involved in a relationship that ended after 6 years. The individual lived with me and then decided that she would not move out. I began looking for an attorney so that I could work on evicting, what turned out to be a horrible roommate situation. I received different advice from every attorney I consulted. Then I called Sara. She returned my call immediately. She was extremely positive and very clear on the actions she would take on my behalf. I hired her! It was worth it! Sara responded to every question, every call and every e-mail within minutes. She stayed positive and kept my spirits up during this rough time for me and my daughter. In court Sara was very professional and knew the law. I would recommend Sara to anyone looking for a true professional. She took my case seriously and I was not just a client.
