Andrade Law Offices - Santa Barbara (CA)

Eric Anderson After the death of my father, I was caught in a very complicated Estate battle that entailed three separate but touching parcels in a pristine downtown location, a stubborn and incompetent "executor" living on one of them rent free for years, and potential environmental issues. At the advices of a family friend and successful attorney in San Jose, Ca, I was connected with Mike Johnson. Mike was very clear about the costs and complications up front and the opposing Estate attorney and executor were not afraid to play nasty by ignoring communications, refusing to pay basic utility bills, and even lying in court documents. Thanks to Mikes clever thinking and strategy, we were ultimately able to force the opposing partys hand and arrive at a cost saving and efficient settlement that brought things to and end and that we were content with. During this ordeal, Howard Garfield also communicated our position clearly and effectively to the opposition and he provided clear summary of what transpired and where we were headed. Lastly, when I came by or contacted the office, I had a lot of contact with Kat Paniagua. She was always prompt and professional when welcoming us into the office our relaying our needs to the attorneys. If you find yourself unexpectedly needing legal help or are ready to get to planning, you need excellent representation, and I highly recommend Garfield Legal. While Mike, Howard, and company are willing to meet the opposition in the middle to get things done, they are not afraid to play hardball when necessary when it is in the best interest of their clients.

Henry G. This guy knows his $hit

Gale McCreary I came to Haselton Law Firm with an estate plan so complex I was barely able to comprehend the concepts. Joe Haselton unraveled the plan and rewrote one that the entire family will be able to understand, and which succinctly achieves all of my estate planning goals. Along the way I have called to ask for minor additions or changes, and those are handled quickly and correctly. Estate Planning can feel like an undesirable chore, but with Joes help it is straightforward, intelligible and ultimately a crucial gift for your family.

priscilla diaz Tom and the Young Wooldridge team are amazing. I originally had another lawyer "LA Lawyer" who dragged my case on for years and ultimately dropped me right before court. Tom and Moe took my case on and were able to get a settlement. I am truly grateful and would recommend them to anyone that is looking for an honest and straightforward Lawyer that will make sure youre put first.
