Understanding, patient, honest

I spoke with Charles about an issue I was having, he took the time to clearly understand my needs. After speaking with him for almost an hour, he put me in touch with the right people to solve my problem. Do not hesitate to contact Charles if you feel you have been treated poorly by an attorney, you... owe it to yourself.

A lawyer that seems sincere and honest

I contacted attorney Kazarian about a personal injury case. I was represented by another attorney that we didn't have faith in. On a Tuesday evening at 7pm he had spent over an hour on the phone answering questions that we had concerning our attorney that we weren't happy with. Kazarian law offices... handle legal malpractice cases and even though half way through the conversation he probably realized that we didn't have a case. He still took the time to answer all of our questions and made us less anxious about the decision we had made with our current attorney. I would recommend anyone to have a consultation with Charles even if you have spoken to other attorney's. He seems to genuinely care about helping people. Thank you very much Charles.

great trusted attorney

I received several consultations from Attorney Kazarian. All situations involved legal malpractice in two different areas of law. Unfortunately, with the number of attorneys in this state it is not easy sometimes to find one that combines the knowledge, honesty, and compassion. I believe attorney Kaz...arian is one of those lawyers. But even he cannot have in-depth knowledge of all areas of law. And if your situation is not in the area of his expertise he will refer you to someone else who specializes in that area but who also is honest and compassionate.

Disappointed with this attorney

This attorney charged me $1,200 for a case assessment and in the initial meeting stated that he would take my case on contingency. One month later when he finally got back to me, he stated that he would only take the case for a substantial amount of money upfront, to take all the risk out of the case... for his firm. From what I understand in a case taken on contingency where there is substantial upside potential for the lawyer, the risk of the case should be shared between client and attorney. This attorney doesn't want to take any risk but wants unlimited upside potential. He only wants home run cases for him, where there is not too much work involved. He reviewed some of the legal paperwork relevant to my case and misunderstood some basic contract clauses. In conclusion if you have a good case you're better off looking elsewhere.

Replied last June 04, 2015

I absolutely did not inform the client that we would take the case on a pure contingent fee basis, and it is unfortunate that I was unable to help this client understand that the complexities and the limited available recovery in the potential case did not merit this office taking all of the risk, and for us to take on the case we would require the client to participate in the costs going forward. We frequently handle cases on a pure contingent fee basis (thus taking ALL of the risk), but this client's case did not merit that approach. The client, a non-lawyer, decided that his own opinion of the contract law issues in the case trumped mine, and I invited him to obtain a second opinion.

"As my practice does not include the handling of Matters involving malpractice, i was recently seeking some advise on behalf of a couple of my clients who have potential malpractice claims. A fellow attorney suggested that I give Attorney Kazarian a call. I took his advise and was more than impressed by this attorney's knowledge, patience and overall willingness to assist. In the present, high -pressure, fast-paced climate, it is truly refreshing to make contact with a professional who is willing to take the time, not just to talk, but also to listen. Accordingly,It is my pleasure to endorse Attorney Kazarian."
