Silva Laura Megerditchian

Silva was recommended by a common friend of mine. He told me that she is good. She is not good she was great mind blowing great! She cares about the people and is to the point and doesn’t BS…. She breaks it down and doesn’t stop trying till things are cleared up. She followed with all the parties. ...She was on top all the different matters coming from all angles. She remained calm and focused. I don’t know how I got so lucky to have found someone of her caliber fighting for me. She is honest, hard working, smart and go getter. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to her. You want her in your corner taking care of your matters. Thank you Silva for everything you do!

Silva is the most professional, hardworking and compassionate attorney you will ever meet. We had a very serious case during the COVID-19 pandemic and with the seriousness of the case and the obstacles we had to overcome, she was able to get a DISMISSAL! She was so knowledgeable, vocal and compassion...ate, she is the best lawyer money can buy. Silva WILL NEVER GIVE UP and WILL FIGHT FOR YOU UNTIL THE END!

Where to begin… I don’t think there’s a word that would describe such an incredible human being. This will be my attempt at doing so. So, the s**t recently hit the fan and during these dark moments Silva was the sunray my family was in dire need of. One of my family members (We’ll refer to him as Jo...hn) was wrapped up in a very undesirable situation where John was facing a serious felony charge and potentially a lengthy jail stint. I was sent to Silva as a referral from an old co-worker of mine who was over the moon with her. She said Silva had previously represented her in a separate criminal proceeding with a favorable outcome and so she shared her contact info and off to the races went. I first met with Silva over the phone and she immediately put me at ease and was able to reduce my anxiety by at least 1,000%. I explained the situation to her, and she whole heartedly listened. Silva was extremely empathic of the situation and gave me hope which almost felt like certainty. At this point, my confidence for her grew exponentially as I knew my family member was in great hands. Since this issue was very time sensitive and John was “in-custody” during my consultation with Silva, she immediately got on the phone, pulled some strings and set up a visit with John the following morning. Obviously, when you hire an attorney to represent you or anyone else you must retain them. This has a financial responsibility which can become VERY expensive and some attorneys will not even talk with you beyond the initial consultation without a retainer. Since I had forgotten my wallet and was very far from home, I could not pay Silva on this particular day which is very irresponsible on my end and completely a fault of my own. Silva did not flinch and said, “hey don’t worry about it I know you’re stressed out” and allowed me to provide payment the following day. Silva selflessly drove from the Westside to Downtown Los Angeles in an effort to bail John out custody pending his court hearing. Since John had a probation “hold” due to his arrest, this meant John would have to automatically serve a 10-day jail sentence due to his probation status. This obviously made the process very challenging for Silva, however, she was successful at lifting the probation hold and even bailing him out. I cannot tell you how much this saved our family and John from further headaches, financial burdens and emotional torment. Silva is a GOD sent. Without getting into details about the case, she was able to obtain positive results for John. Silva Megerditchian showcased immense moral and ethical character and we were all privileged to see how enormous this woman’s heart really is. She really had a special relationship with John and I during this entire process and I am so thankful I found her. Do not waste your time looking elsewhere especially since criminal proceedings are very time sensitive. I guarantee you; YOU will not be disappointed. RUN and HIRE this woman NOW! I almost forgot, not only did Silva talk with me during office hours, after hours and even weekends, Silva called me personally and gave me every single update and quite frankly she just called to see how I was personally doing. Who does that??? At least no lawyer I’ve ever met. If you read this Silva, may God Bless you.

For the past 20 years, I devoted a lifetime of service not only to the military but also to law enforcement. After being honorably discharged from the US Marine Corps, I immediately entered the law enforcement ranks and quickly promoted. However, after many years on the job witnessing horrible atroci...ties and a constant toxic work environment these experiences led me down a path of severe depression and self-medicating. To make matters worse, a female who I considered a friend made allegations of unlawful sexual intercourse against me. My world immediately changed. I was expeditiously arrested and incarcerated. Despite having directly dealt with the criminal system as a law enforcement officer for many years, experiencing the system as a defendant was a new and shocking experience for me. I was blessed to have found an exceptionally skillful and competent attorney, Silva L. Megerditchian, who provided me with the finest legal representation. My case obtained unnecessary attention from the media due to my law enforcement affiliation. Enduring this process was dreadful, yet Silva remained by my side constantly updating me on the next steps and leading me through the difficulties of my case. Silva kept me away from ever having to step inside a courtroom. Just as important, she dealt and kept the media away who wanted to twist the facts of my case and continue to paint me with an evil brush, despite my innocence. Having dealt this case was complete hell. However, I can honestly say Silva is the type of person who personalized my case and owned it as if she was fighting for one of her personal friends. That’s how good of an attorney she is. She managed to get me through the most horrific time of my life and she provided me with encouragement to move forward. She does unbelievable work. Here’s the bottom line, Silva has years of working experience as a defense attorney for the Los Angeles Public Defender’s office. As a former police officer, I will tell you first hand you want someone like her on your side. She truly understands the complexities of a legal case but just as importantly she also understands how to maneuver through nuances of the court's bureaucracy. This only means whatever issue you may be facing she will fight for you and be honest with you about your legal situation. She has my recommendation many times over. Ed G.
