An Honest Man

I recently had a consultation with this attorney, and it was worth every penny of the consultation fee. When I first got off the phone, I honestly felt informed but discouraged because I didn’t necessarily receive the answers I wanted emotionally. Instead, I received honest, realistic guidance abo...ut my situation and the proper steps I needed to take moving forward. Looking back now, I truly appreciate that. Mr. Tanaka didn't rush me off the phone, sugarcoat things, or immediately push me toward spending thousands of dollars on representation. He took the time to explain things clearly, answered my questions thoroughly, and gave me practical directions I could actually apply myself, long-term and short-term. Once I started applying the information and steps he gave me to my situation, things that previously felt stuck and overwhelming have slowly started moving in the right direction. That alone speaks volumes to me. How Mr. Tanaka is staying in business? Only God knows. Mr. Tanaka was very transparent regarding expectations, costs, and what hiring him would realistically look like. I genuinely hope my situation continues resolving peacefully, however, if I do end up needing legal representation, he will absolutely be the attorney I choose. Highly Recommend!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review! Yes, family law situations are often emotional and overwhelming -- my goal is always to provide clear, realistic guidance — even when the answers may be difficult to hear at first. I’m so glad our consultation helped give you direction and that the steps we discussed have already started making a positive difference in your situation! Thank you as well for recognizing the transparency and practical approach I try to bring to every consultation — it means a lot that you felt informed, respected, and supported throughout the process! I sincerely hope things continue moving toward a peaceful resolution for you and your family! -Jonathan

Owner/Tenant Lease Agreement Dispute

I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Tanaka. My wife and I have never been sued before so this was definitely a new experience. Over the last year we worked with Mr. Tanaka regarding a Landlord/tenant dispute. He was nothing but a professional the whole time and was always there if we need...ed him. Words to describe him would be intelligent, clear communicator, down-to-earth, empathetic, and confident. We were extremely impressed by him in the court room during our final hearing. It definitely payed off having Jonathan in our corner. If you need someone to represent you in any capacity I highly recommend Mr. Tanaka!

One For The Win

Mr. Tanaka assisted me in a Renters Right small claim that ended in a big way. During our initial consultation, Mr. Tanaka immediately understood that I had a case whilst other law offices insisted the law would side with rental company. Mr. Tanaka really listened to my concern/complaints; repeated w...hat I said and answered my questions; stayed in communication; also is very affordable. During court, Mr. Tanaka was confident in his speaking; stayed on topic; asked ever qualified question; noticed the inconsistencies of the other party, and did not let up. He executed perfectly! We won the case and my justice was very much served. Thank you again for your assistance
