Posted by anonymous | March 28, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Discrimination

Showed a Lack of Proactive Action and Advocacy!

Mazaheri Law Firm closed my case without even the professional courtesy of a meeting or phone call to discuss options and their decision to close my workplace discrimination and retaliation case. Suddenly one day, the office billing administrator sent me an email with an attached letter (I received t...he hard copy by mail 2 days later) stating they were closing my case and that although my attorney believed I was wronged and had suffered discrimination, it did not rise to the level necessary for a legal claim and that the passage of time may bar me from pursing a further claim. The passage of time? I spent a year and a half with this firm, doing everything they asked me in pursuit of litigation and asking for updates to which they responded "we are waiting for your employers to act and respond"… passing time that in my opinion they wasted and did not proactively help me. When I hired them, they assured me I had a discrimination and retaliation case against my employers and that they would help me pursue corrective action in light of what I had endured. I feel that they did not give me nor my case the importance it deserved. I believe they pursed other more financially lucrative cases while allowing my case sit in wait, so then they simply close my case (why not, I paid in full every month). In the end, they treated me just like my employers, dismissing my concerns and pleas for help. My opinion is do not waste your time nor money; find another law firm who are equitable with their focused efforts,… who care more about advocating than cherry picking the highest payout cases. By the way,… I found and hired another law firm who did win my case for me!

Consulting fee is misleading term

We were told in order to consult with an attorney we must pay a $50 fee. We assumed that a consultation would include advise of whether or not we had a legitimate claim and under what statues we could pursue it. After a 30 minutes interview with the attorney, she said that after a review, she would... get back to us next week. The following week she had her secretary call to say that she would be willing to take our case for a $2000. retainer and $250 an hour. No info based on our questions of what merits our claim had or advice was offered. Apparently you must pay a fee now just to get this attorney to accept your case. Consulting fee is a misnomer. Maybe she should call this 'a case review for acceptance fee.'

Karla- Divorce and Child Custody

I had Ann as my personal attorney at the Mazaheri Law Firm and I will definitely use her again in the future. She was thorough, always there to answer my questions via e-mail, telephone or in person. She did a great job of keeping me up to date and I didn't just feel like another client, I felt like ...a person and she really cared about my needs. I would definitely recommend this law firm to anyone. My dad also used them for a Trust and Will and the service was fast and easy and he was pleased as well!

Honest, Helpful, and really looking out for me

I contacted Mazaheri Law Firm when I had an issue with my now former employer. Katherine Mazaheri handled my case. When we first met, she made me feel she was trustworthy, gave me honest feedback on the issue, clarified the legality of the issue which I had not fully understood, and helped me win my ...case. I would highly recommend using Katherine in the future.
