Breach of contract

I consulted Attorney Zach Skidelsky for advice regarding a dispute with a home contractor over a swimming pool installation at our new home. From the initial consultation, Zach was incredibly helpful. He listened patiently to my concerns and clearly explained the legal options regarding the disput...e. His communication style was clear and straightforward, making a complex situation much easier to understand. Thanks to his expert advice, I was able to navigate the issue with the contractor effectively. His insights were invaluable, and I felt much more confident in handling the situation moving forward. I truly appreciated his guidance and support during a stressful time. I highly recommend Zach Skidelsky to anyone seeking legal advice, on breach of contract.

Terrible law firm

My case could have been done at the court, being late for the court, did not communicate enough before the court day, was at the wrong court, and not presented for me at all. Just copy and paste to send other party’s settlement, no legal advice for my hand. Horrible firms, wasted my times and money....

Incredible and compassionate attorney

Zack is a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney who has great judgment on what elements are important to a case to ultimately be successful.

Exceptional

I am profoundly grateful for the extraordinary legal support provided by Mr. Skidelsky. In my case I was facing three misdemeanor charges as a nurse, falsely accused in a situation by my abusive ex in a custody ploy. Mr. Skidelsky stepped in as my unwavering advocate. His expertise in criminal defen...se proved to be nothing short of remarkable. Throughout the process, Mr. Skidelsky displayed a rare combination of legal acumen and compassion. He meticulously crafted a defense that not only refuted the unjust charges but also helped me regain control over my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Zach Skidelsky to anyone in need of a skilled and empathetic criminal defense lawyer. Thanks to him and his team , I can now move forward with confidence, leaving behind the unjust accusations that once cast a shadow over my life. I am forever grateful. Special thanks to you Mr. Skidelsky!

Great attorney

I hired Zach to represent me at a court hiring to finalize my case. During my consultation he was attentive, knowledgeable and confident. During the hearing he showed empathy and was happy when we got a positive result, termination of sexual registry. If you are looking for a confident and caring law...yer that can help you resolve issues with registry removal or termination of registration look no further then Zach.

"Zach is one of the top criminal defense and DUI attorneys in California. In addition to that, he has done amazing work on civil cases including cases where millions of dollars are at stake. In criminal defense, he has gotten major felonies dismissed. In one noteworthy case, he got a hit and run manslaughter case resolved with no jail. Absolutely amazing."
