Excellent Lawyer

Thanks to Ardalan Samandari, our divorce is finally drawing to a close. After many years, multiple lawyers, lots of money spent, and a lot of frustration Mr. Samandari helped me navigate through a very difficult and convoluted divorce process. I was especially thankful that he was able to establis...h spousal support after so many years when no other lawyer had been able to do this for me. Just a few days ago I was able to pay off debt and sign onto Cobra because Mr. Samandari got the court certified QDRO processed in a very timely fashion. Mr. Samandari has outstanding people skills combined with a great understanding of the law. He is an excellent communicator even in very difficult situations. I was so impressed with how Mr. Samandari finally got the judgement done. Bravo Ardalan Samandari for being such an excellent lawyer.

I strongly recommend Mr.Ardalan Samandari to anyone that needs legal representation for their case. After having the wrong one and she waste my time and money for nothing and ruined my case a friend of mine recomend Mr. Samandari. My divorce case was complicated. Other party usually didn’t get answe...r or get answer in wrong way to play a game but with Mr. Ardalan story was changed. He is very sharp, knowledgeable and expert and at the same time he is honest and hardworking person. He knows the law and the procedure very well and knows how to strategize and give excellent and trustworthy advise He understands client’s needs. He gets to the point and not waste time.

If he couldn’t answer the phone right away. he’d always text me immediately and call me back as soon as possible even on weekend.

Best possible experience with a Divorce Attorney

Mr. Samandari is extremely knowledgeable, professional and kind, and was a pleasure to work with. During my divorce it was evident that he was a no-nonsense, no-game playing gentlemen, and the judge clearly appreciated that and the case was wrapped up as quickly as it could have been. Mr. Samand...ari was always straight forward and made everything easy to understand. I had researched and found that his fees were more than fair, so I was able to afford my divorce without feeling a financial crunch. It's clearly not about the money for him. His response time to my calls and questions was very quick and I never once felt like I was a bother or that I was being put off. Mr. Samandari was quite thorough in his info gathering process and is a great writer, and he was always the sharpest dressed in the courthouse. I have referred him to two friends who have also had positive experiences and results and I will continue to recommend him highly to anyone I know that needs family law services.

"Mr. Samandari is a meticulous and hard working attorney. He first approaches every legal issue not with what the law states but what makes logical sense since almost any law can be found to justify every legal issue. He quickly understands more so than most attorneys his client's legal issues and is not afraid to tackle any issue his client might have because in the end he knows what makes sense for his clients. That along with his dedication to the proper research for any of his client's issues ensures that his clients almost always come out on top."
