Review Ronald Hedding

Hedding Law Firm, Encino, CA Friendly,Professional and Highly Ethical

Posted by MarianThu Dec 04 2014

Ronald W. Hedding was a pleasure to do business with. He is very knowledgeable, always willing to answer my questions and is prompt in returning my calls. Our case went back to 2009 and I needed some information. It was not readily available in the office. Mr Hedding called me back that day and said he would have all the information the next day for me and would call me back. He called me first thing in the morning after going to the court house to obtain a copy of the case. He explained everything to me and even sent me a copy of the case for my records. The whole office staff is friendly and goes out of their way to assist you. I would highly recommend Ronald William Hedding to anyone who needs a professional,trustworthy,ethical attorney . If I ever need legal representation it will be with Attorney, Ronald William Hedding. I have dealt with other attorney's and I would call with a question and never receive a call back or never get any update on my case, Very frustrating. You won't find that at Hedding Law Firm. By the way they won my case.

Always kept me in the loop! How many lawyers consistently do that?

Posted by BillFri Feb 20 2015

I had a recent court case on February 17, 2015 and was facing DUI charges with a BAC of .088 (blood) Ron Sr. was able to get an initial wet reckless offering but told me they were going to go for an even better outcome based on their research on my case. After reviewing the police report and MVAR he showed up in court and was able to convince the prosecutor to offer me a speed contest!! Needless to say I was extremely happy and grateful. Ron Sr. is a fantastic and caring attorney! I've dealt with lawyers who take your retainer and then seem to suddenly disappear on you. Not these guys. As I mention in my title, he always kept me in the loop, kept me informed and gave me peace of mind without any overpromises. Their fees were extremely reasonable and believe me, I shopped around. It's not fun going through DUI "stuff" and he and his son Ron Jr. (who is another awesome attorney) run a great practice and the whole team there is top notch. Thank You!
