After requesting a consultation to review a contract, I received excellent recommendations on next steps and important inquiries to make of my employer. The initial call was provided at no cost, and I plan to seek legal representation from the same source in the future.

The response time was prompt and they directed me to a company that could assist me even though they were unable to do so themselves. I would strongly suggest them.

By collaborating with Akhavan & Associates, I was able to alleviate the stress and time-consuming nature of staying up-to-date with new California employment laws, which was one of my main concerns while running my small business. I highly recommend consulting with them for any queries you may have. Their consultation call was cordial and thorough in determining my needs and how they could be of assistance. Furthermore, they did not hesitate to seek the assistance of other attorneys outside their competence to provide additional support. Without a doubt, I'd collaborate with them again in the future with utmost confidence.
Kindly,
Kevin

After speaking with eight different attorneys and taking detailed notes on each of their responses, I ultimately ranked Akhavan & Assoc as my top choice. Bardia, the attorney I worked with, was personable and capable of articulating legal concepts in a way that anyone could understand. He took his time with me, demonstrated a thorough understanding of the law (including how it pertained to recent high-profile cases similar to mine), and provided a clear outline of how he planned to approach my case. Hiring him was a huge relief, as my stress and anxiety levels decreased significantly. If you're in need of legal representation, I highly recommend Akhavan & Assoc. Missing out on the opportunity to work with a kind, capable lawyer like Bardia would be a mistake.
