Whitney, Thompson & Jeffcoach Law Firm - Merced (CA)

John Levitt As a civil trial attorney, I do not handle family law matters. Whenever I have a client who has the need for a family law specialist, I refer them to Julie Stankowski. Julie is the go to family law lawyer when a matter is highly contested or when there are custody and/or domestic violence issues. Julie does a tremendous job for her clients.

Christina Fletes Elizabeth Elizondo helped put together a will, trust, and power of attorney for my parents and it was a great experience. Elizabeth did a great job at explaining what everything meant, and she was patient, professional, and responsive. I highly recommend working with Elizabeth.

Vanessa Demelo Brian really helped me through the process even though I was such a nervous nelly. I truly appreciate that Brian was so thorough and detailed and even understanding. Such a great help. Highly recommended!

Darrell Wells Darren Kessler is a great attorney to have your side. His in-depth experience on both sides of the legal system makes him an invaluable asset. He is super easy to talk to. He knows what he is doing. I highly recommend his services. Thank you Darren!

Joseph Zamora Hi, Everybody Albert Garcia and his staff are amazing! I was arrested for a DUI at the Tulare AG Expo on 2/14/24. I was standing outside of my vehicle and flagged a CHP officer down for assistance and he assumed I was the driver and turned the investigation on me. The DMV suspended my license for 1 year because I refused to submit to a blood test. I hired Albert Garcia and we went to trial on 7/31/25 and the jury found me innocent on all charges because of Albert Garcia’s trial experience! I will forever be thankful to him and his staff. #AlbertGarcia #TrialAttormey #VisaliaCA

Ward Mailliard To have someone like John Simonson is to know that you are going to get the best legal support available. Thorough, professional, exhaustive in pursuit of protecting their clients. We were so fortunate to have them representing us.

Susan Black An attorney who truly cares about his clients? It is so rare, in my opinion, it almost sounds like an oxymoron. Well I almost never write reviews and Im so positively impressed with George, I had to write this and attest that he is a rare, amazing, caring, compassionate human being as well as an extremely skilled and competent attorney. I speak from experience as I worked for 12 years as a contract employee for Family Court Services, so observed many attorneys, judges and mediators. I also am a peaceful person, as you may be, having ended a prior 23 year with a respectful mediated settlement never having to appear in court. Currently, Im a survivor of 38 month, extremely high conflict, unnecessarily vicious divorce battle that cost $90K prior to George. George was my fourth attorney and George went way above and beyond for a very reasonable pre-set flat fee. Words cannot express how happy and relieved I am that I found George who was able to resolve the case quickly by mediation a long overdue agreement and thereby avoiding a scheduled two day trial that I was dreading. In summary, my only regret that I didnt find George Castagnola three years sooner so that he could have been my first and only attorney. If I were a teacher, I would rate him A++. There is no higher rating.

Lauren K Melissa A. Proudian and her staff helped me keep track of information and win my case in court. I’m truly blessed and thankful Melissa A. Proudian and her staff were always looking out for me this whole time! I would definitely recommend them to others in need of services!

Kelly Mr. Vos is the BEST attorney for bankruptcy, he is very professional, very kind, easy to understand when explaining pros/cons of Chapter 7, my husband & I are extremely pleased that we have him on our side as we go through this process of getting onto a cleaner & better path financially with the help/guidance of Mr. Vos. We STRONGLY & HIGHLY recommend Mr. Vos.

Stephen C This is the first and hopefully last time I will have to go through a bankruptcy and Karen Grant helped make this ordeal less stressful than I was expecting. If I had to just use one word to describe the experience working with her it would be “professional”. Never did I get the feeling that I was being judged in anyway. She just wanted to know the facts/details with the purpose of filling out all the paperwork properly. The whole process from initially contacting her to the final court hearing took about 4 months. It could have been quicker but I had trouble getting my credit report. All in all, I am glad it’s over and I would highly recommend Karen for first timers like myself.
