Dear Ms. Kauffman, I would like to take this opportunity to…read moreexpress my sincere gratitude to you for making the decision to take my case. When I received your message that you would, indeed, take my civil case in San Diego, California, North County Court, I felt completely relieved as if the world was lifted off my shoulders, as you are known as one of the top lawyers in this field of law. I am a 70+ year senior, 100 percent disabled and homebound and from day one, our very first meeting by phone, I knew that we had a chance at winning this thing, and fortunately for myself, this soon may come to fruition. I realize that this was not the easiest case to win, and that you were required to spend long hours researching and putting your presentation and court motions together. It is for this that I thank you. You treated me just as well, if not better, than your more prestigious clients. In fact, I was not prepared for the kindness and consideration I received from you and your good staff. It was not all "business" with you, it was something more personal. This made me feel secure in you handling my case. Thanks to your expertise and extreme prowess, my case not only saw the light of day, but can potentially be won without going to trial and justice would be served. Your dedication, your attention to detail, vast knowledge of the law and diligence made this all possible. You and your staff believed in me and my situation, and did not leave my side, but remained steadfast through it all, even when it did not look promising. In the end, it will all worked out well. Thank you for not only being my lawyer, but also my friend through this. I appreciate the attention to my health and wellbeing, as does my family. All of us wish to extend to you, our utmost friendship, and hope that you consider yourself an extended member of my family, and if there is anything we can ever do for you, simply ask. Sincerely Lee B.

I hired Rhona after quitting a high profile HOA law firm. I was impressed by the conciseness of…read moreher Demand Letter in comparison to the multi-page "expensive" one composed by my former firm and her economy of task approach to my case. Although not a high stakes case, Rhona understood and respected my desire to defend my rights as a member/stakeholder in my HOA. We were met with stonewalling every step of the way and she called it out every step of the way. I represented myself in my ADR to conserve costs and when it proved to be unproductive, she was gracious to entertain another consultation and possible representation to take my HOA to court. I reached out to my first law firm too for another consultation and did not receive a response. This case is extremely important to me and to believe that I am taking it to the next level with the right lawyer should resonate with anyone who finds themselves in the perilous position of having to seek legal counsel to defend their rights, especially under unpleasant circumstances of alleged discrimination, bullying, baseless threats, etc.

Tecla and her entire staff are the best in the desert…read more In reading some other reviews I would agree with many of what has been posted. She is brutally honest, does not mislead you and explains the facts about the potential results. She also cares about the needs of the children and any ramifications that may happen in court or to the children during the process. This is so often overlooked and no matter how hostile your ex may be, she is willing to hold people accountable for their actions. In my opinion,(I been to court self representing over 30 times just trying to get discovery information) most attorneys do not care about anything but getting paid. She is the best and I thank her and her staff for all their help in a very contentious divorce. Thank you Tecla John Reynolds

Tecla Lunak was able to hear my side of the story, and advise me appropriately when it made sense to push for something, and when it didn't make sense. It felt like she knew the law well and would apply all appropriate legal remedies in a fair and balanced way. I was looking for aggressive, but non-contentious, and that is what I found. Although this law office is costly, I felt like they were fair and efficient in their billing practices. Although I would hope you wouldn't need a lawyer like I did, if you do, the Law Offices of Tecla M Lunak are a very good choice.

Ms. Powers is a rare find, and a true blessing. In a family law case, we were not served and found…read moreout about the case literally 45 hours prior to appearance. She, less than 2 days prior stepped in, and stepped up! Her communication was WAY more than one could expect from any attorney. After getting our case postponed, she continued to be always accessible. We had court today, and prevailed with Ms. Powers. This woman not only looked out for children's best interests, but I feel as though I have gained a true friend in her as well. I don't think you will get that from many other attorneys. Also, she charged a reasonable flat fee. She is not a money-hungry attorney. She is reasonable and fair. My experience is TRUE, it is fact. Ms. Powers cares and fights. We have much Gratitude.

I do not typically leave negative reviews, but my experience with the Law Offices of Athina Powers…read morein Indian Wells was extremely disappointing. Communication was consistently poor. Phone calls were not returned time and time again, despite multiple messages being left. I frequently had to follow up myself just to get basic updates on my case. There was little to no proactive communication, which made an already stressful situation even more frustrating. On more than one occasion, appointments were scheduled for me to come into the office, only for me to arrive and find the door locked. No notice, no call, no explanation. That level of disorganization and lack of consideration is unacceptable--especially in family law. Going through a divorce is one of the most emotional and difficult experiences a person can face. You rely on your attorney not only for legal guidance but also for professionalism, responsiveness, and support. Unfortunately, my experience was the opposite. Instead of easing the burden, the lack of communication and follow-through added unnecessary stress. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this law firm to anyone going through a divorce. I hope this feedback encourages improvements in client communication, responsiveness, and overall professionalism for future clients.
