Excellent and Professional

Tom was professional and was able to handle my case with ease; He is very knowledgeable about the process and it went just as he described it, the overall outcome was better than expected. I would recommend him for any future matters. Tom was also available whenever I needed him.

Posted by Melanie | July 28, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

If you are looking for a lawyer and you are scared and have no idea what to expect (like I was) he is the best lawyer to hire.

If you find yourself in a situation where you need help, Tom is the person you want on your side. My boyfriend and I found ourselves in a situation where we needed a lawyer and were not sure where to start as neither of us have ever been in trouble. I remembered seeing an ad for AVVO so I decided to ...look on there. We knew it would be a somewhat easy case, but I am a worry wart so I didnt want to just pick some Joe Schmo. I sorted the website to see who had the highest AVVO rating and the highest reviews and that is how I found Tom Thomasian. I read all of the reviews and everyone seemed to be very pleased with his services and I saw that he offered a free consultation so I figured it wouldnt hurt to just meet with him and see what he thought. I called Tom's office and I expected to just set up an appointment with a secretary, I left my name and number and about 5 minutes later Tom called me himself to set up the appointment. I told him our situation and he seemed confident that he would be able to help us out. A few days later we met him at his office and after meeting with him and going over what he could do for us, I knew he was the right person to hire. Now don't get me wrong, he isnt the cheapest attorney, but you get what you pay for. Do you really want to cut coupons for a lawyer? I dont, I would rather pay good money and feel confident walking into court with someone who I know has our back. Tom was always there to answer any questions we had, whether I called him or sent him a text message. We went to court three times, each time we were there for 10 minutes max. In the end our case was dismissed and we had it expunged. Hopefully I will never have to hire Tom again, but I will always keep his card in my wallet because if anyone ever needs help he is the person I will send them to. If you are looking for a lawyer and you are scared and have no idea what to expect (like I was) he is the best lawyer to have because he will talk you through each step of the process and make sure that you are comfortable with what is going on with your case.

Awesome Lawyer and Compassionate Man!

I could not be happier with the Legal Services of Tom Thomasian. Tom returned my call within minutes, quickly assuring me he could help me get an unfortunate domestic matter handled. Extremely professional and compassionate lawyer – Instantly reassuring and helpful! He was able to represent me befo...re the judge, and thru his knowledge of and connections in the court systems, cleared my name and expunged my record. Truly grateful for everything that Tom did for me…Thanks Tom for a job well done!

Highly Recommend

Due to an unfortunate situation my boyfriend and I had to obtain a lawyer. We actually picked one from the reviews that we read! They were 100% accurate! Tom was very helpful, trustworthy and knowledgeable in every aspect. He was quick to respond to phone calls, texts, and emails! I highly recomme...nd him for anyone that needs a criminal lawyer. He got our case dismissed! We will definitely use him again!! (hopefully we don't need to)

Thomas changed my life

I can't say enough about Thomas. From the first moment I met Tom he put me at ease. Tom took on my case and in the end changed my life. Tom fought for justice and got a complete dismissal of my case. Thomas is there when you need him in will be there every step of the way. His knowledge of the law th...e personal attention is what we all need in the lawyer.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I had the pleasure of being on the opposite side of the bar from Attorney Thomasian while I was a Rule 9 intern at the Attorney General's office on several occasions. Attorney Thomasian was a consummate professional and it showed in the way he treated his clients, the Judges, and those of us on the opposite side."

"It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that I am writing to endorse Tom Thomasian. I have been dealing with lawyers for 20 years and not very often do I find a lawyer with the talents of Mr. Thomasian. He fights hard for his clients, he has the respect of the Judges and is feared by the prosecutors. I hope my perspective will be helpful to you as you evaluate this exceptional lawyer and member of the bar."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
