Professional, Proactive, Effective & Great Communication!

Paradigm Law comes with our highest recommendation. We'd give 10 stars if we could. Leaving a home you've loved and lived in for many years is hard. Extreme downsizing magnifies the pain. Relocating across country doubles-down on it! Our timeline didn't leave much room physically or emotionally to wo...rk through all the details, so we hired a team of pros to help. At first, everything seemed to be going fine until suddenly and alarmingly one day it wasn't. All the parties started to pull in different directions and conflicting agendas were speedily escalating out of control. To salvage the situation and our sanity, we hired Paradigm Law to pull everyone back on track. There aren't sufficient words to describe our gratitude that Paradigm Law was easy to engage, and that they immediately demonstrated their value. They never added to our worries. We didn't need to over-explain, prod or manage them, or wonder what was happening. They were friendly, professional and effective while communicating early and often. In no time at all they'd accomplished everything we’d hoped for. There were never any mystery methods, unexplained processes or unfathomable billing practices. Paradigm Law just simply came through for us. I would wish no one to experience what we did but if you do, call Paradigm Law. You’ll be glad you did.

Elvis C.

Hello, my name is Elvis Cruz and i can sincerly say that Shikha and her staff are some real professionals who know what they are doing, I just want to say that Shikha is truly an angel sent from above. Nobody wanted to help me resolve my case due to the fact that it was so complicated but her perfesi...onalism was so great that i was able to put my trust in her and her staff. Shihka gave me hope and now thanks to her a have a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I would highly recomend Shikha to anyone who feels like there problem has no solution.

Won my house back!!!

My story started out with four rounds of a short sale process, which left me drained and frustrated. I turned to Shikha and her team to assist me with my home. Initially, I contacted Shikha to pursue a case against the mortgage due to the negligence. I explained that I was recently divorced from a 15...-year marriage and filed bankruptcy during the process. I also shared that I desired to remain in my home with my 14-year-old daughter (the house she grew up in). Shortly after speaking with Shikha, she provided me with options that I never knew I had. She gave me hope that I could keep my home. Her team quickly contacted the mortgage company to start the modification process. After providing the bank with everything required, a roadblock happen! The mortgage company SOLD my loan in the MIDDLE of our modification review. Shikha quickly shifted the team’s energy to the new mortgage company and I was able to modify my home, which REDUCED my mortgage by hundreds of dollars! I am so grateful for her knowledge and services. Shikha is pleasant and swift! She does EXACTLY what she says she can do…and she gets it done!

Very professional and goes above and beyond to ensure client has top notch representation

Ms. Parikh is an attorney of integrity and honor. She reviewed my contract, advised me of what to do and went far above the normal level of service. I would strongly encourage anyone to seek her advice. I am so impressed with her level of service and attention to detail that I would consult her fir...st for any legal issue and follow her recommendation. She even offered to email the party I had the contract dispute with to ensure the required notice was received in the required timeframe. If I had more adjectives to show my appreciation, I would surely use them. Simply amazing in every area.

Short Sale Judgement Negotiation

Shikha did an exceptional job representing me and keeping me updated throughout the process. She was able to negotiate the settlement to the exact amount I wanted. I must say I was impressed and could not be happier with the results. My husband and I will definitely recommend her to all our friends ...and family.

Foreclosure lawyer | Jul 17

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"As a family lawyer, I have referred several divorcing clients to Shikha, who helped structure a ‘short sale’ of their homes for less than the mortgage balance, and thereby avoided their liability for the mortgage deficiency. Shikha conveys a cheerful confidence that puts clients at ease as she manages the arcane foreclosure process."
