Matt Koohanim

Esperanza and Matt have gone above and beyond expectations to help. They really do care and I would recommend them. The care they provide their clients is far more than respectable. When times are tough they stick by your side regardless the circumstances. Will hire again and recommend. Thank you fo...r helping us in this difficult time.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal support I received from Matt Koohanim and his entire team at the Law Office of Matt Koohanim. From the moment I walked through their doors, I knew I was in good hands. Matt's professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my family’s well-...being were evident from the start. My case involved Orange County Social Services, who removed my 16-year-old daughter after a typical teenage dispute over her cell phone. Like many teenagers, she had been behaving inappropriately, and while I was simply trying to set boundaries, the situation escalated into something far beyond what I could have imagined. I was devastated, unsure of what to do, and felt completely overwhelmed by the legal system. Matt immediately stepped in and took control of the situation. He understood the complexities of my case and worked tirelessly to ensure that my voice was heard and my rights were protected. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the law, but also compassionate and supportive every step of the way. He always took the time to explain things in a way that made sense to me, and he consistently advocated for what was best for my daughter. Thanks to Matt’s dedication and strategic approach, we were able to make significant progress in our case. He fought for my family, and I truly believe his commitment made all the difference. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is not only skilled but also deeply invested in your case, I highly recommend Matt Koohanim. He will go above and beyond for you and your family, just like he did for mine. Thank you, Matt, for helping me navigate one of the most difficult times in my life with integrity and care.

I speak from experience and I would have to say I was hesitant at first since this was the first time our family has dealt with this kind of situation. I came across him through an Attorney referral and lo and behold, I felt like God has answered our prayers. Matt guided us all through out the proces...s, we submitted all the paperwork that is needed for our case and we decided to set aside all our doubts. You have to be willing to listen and control your emotions and trust that your case will be closed. We are now in the process of reunification and Matt has taught me to be calm as a parent and trust the process. A huge thank you to this Firm!

My son was taken from his mother by DCFS I didn’t know this happened until 4 and half month after he was placed in a strangers house ! And this was the second DCFS case the first one I was the victim that didn’t press charges or show up to the case because my logic was I was the victim in that case s...o how do I need to show up ? Well I was very wrong and my rights to my son were limited to 1 supervised visit per year! So for 4 years I was basically paying her to see my kid and I was paying large sums of money to do so. When I showed up to court, the court provided me with so free but terrible lawyer I left court and was reaching out to her and her office with no response calling 4-5 times a day for over a week and that wasn’t gonna work! So I literally meet or had phone conversations with every attorney that deals with these type of cases and I only had a good feeling about Matt so I retained him he promised to get me full custody of my son and we came up with a solid game plan and instructed me every step of the way he was also was my therapist and a very patient friend because I too was in the system when I was a child so I was very hard to witness my child going through the same traumatic situation , Long story short Sole physical custody and the mom only gets a 4 hour visit per month this was my dream and it’s a reality now !!!
