Tom Gardner Excellent Service

Iris Velasco I cannot be more grateful to Patricia SantaMaria and Madison Law for their help, guidance, and unwavering support during my child custody case. Patricia was not only an exceptional attorney but also a source of comfort and friendship during one of the hardest times of my life. She explained everything clearly, stayed attentive, and always kept my children’s well-being at the forefront. Even in my most desperate moments, she was realistic, kept me grounded, and helped me make decisions I wouldn’t regret. Patricia never overpromised but found a way to meet me halfway, achieving a resolution that balanced what I wanted as a parent with what was best for my kids. I highly recommend Patricia and Madison Law to anyone in need of compassionate and skilled legal support.

Roshanak Borostyankoi Working with Law Stein Anderson was an exceptional experience that brought both clarity and peace of mind during an important chapter of my life. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated a rare combination of deep legal expertise and genuine compassion. They assisted me with both estate planning and business matters, and in both areas, their guidance was thorough, thoughtful, and tailored to my unique situation. I never felt like “just another client”—they took the time to understand my goals, explain my options in plain language, and ensure every detail was handled with care. working with Law Stein Anderson—especially Charlotte and Kandy—made all the difference. Charlotte and Kandy went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported and informed every step of the way. They not only demonstrated exceptional legal knowledge but also showed sincere empathy and care. What truly set them apart was their ability to make complex legal processes feel manageable. Their professionalism gave me confidence, but it was their personal approach that gave me comfort. I am grateful for their support and would wholeheartedly recommend Law Stein Anderson to anyone looking for trusted legal partners.

Cecile S We selected Sowards Law Firm to do our Living Trust based on the reviews and they did not disappoint. The communication from the initial contact all the way to the pick-up day of our family trust binder was very smooth, thanks to Hailey for her efficiency and friendly personality. Our virtual meeting with Krystal was very helpful as she explained the process and assisted us with the documents that we need to provide prior to our in-person meeting with Ben. We enjoyed our meeting with Ben. He was very welcoming and made us feel like long-time clients. He took the time to explain all that we need to know and informed us of the options available to us as he went over the entire planning process based on what we need. This made it easy for us to decide and complete the planning process without feeling overwhelmed or lost. Jo was very pleasant and organized. She took the time to go over every page that required our signature during signing day and made the necessary corrections on the spot. We picked up the finalized copy a week after signing. We now feel at ease knowing we have our affairs in order. Thank you for the great customer service provided by Sowards Law Firm! We highly recommend them.

Figueroa family I had an outstanding experience thanks to Jose Cordova’s excellent customer service. He was very prompt in responding to my request and handled everything efficiently. Jose was extremely helpful and made sure I fully understood the process. What really impressed me was that he even called back to confirm my request had been taken care of. That extra step showed genuine care and professionalism. I highly recommend Jose Cordova to anyone looking for reliable and top-notch service. As a note, the JLF Firm overall is 5 Star Service.

Jean Doe I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Lisa Lazzara. She knows her stuff, is highly intelligent, extremely dedicated, professional, thorough, supportive, non-judgemental and empathetic. It is obvious that she truly cares about her work and her clients, and I felt she went above and beyond to help me resolve my situation in a timely manner. Thank you for everything!

David Hesse Most of us have had or will have a need to hire a lawyer at some point in our life.unless you know one personally, its not an easy task, I hope this makes it easer for someone. One of the most important things your lawyer should do for you is put you at ease and make you feel confident that theyre going to take care of you, Bill (he insisted I call him Bill) did that right from the beginning. He talks straight to you in a way thats very relatable and easy to understand. He delivered a win for me in a situation that seemed hopeless, my divorce was complicated, to say the least. As impressed and grateful as I am with what he accomplished for me, what Im most thankful for is the peace of mind I have, believing that Bill gave me the best outcome that was possible. Trust me, I know what Im talking about, theres nothing worse than feeling like you dont trust your lawyer and nothing better than feeling that you do. Im sure Im not an exception, I believe he treats all of his clients with the same genuine care and service. His staff was very professional and did a great job communicating and keeping me informed. Perhaps the best measure of my feelings would be to ask myself, would I hire him again, would I recommend him to my friends or family? To that I would genuinely and emphatically answer... YES! Thank you Bill, youre one of the good guys!

Stephanie Henschel My grandmother had her estate planned through Mr. Gibbons, and my mother and I have now been working with Mr. Clyma. He is extremely knowledgeable and explains everything clearly. Welcoming questions and being very prompt with answers, Im so grateful we have him and his awesome assistant to help us through the difficult landscape of wills and inheritance.
