Highly competent and compassionate legal advocate

I recently saw a negative review about Attorney Zach Skidelsky and felt compelled to share my own experience. I’ve worked with Mr. Skidelsky on two separate matters—one a few years ago involving a national veterinary hospital, and more recently, in November 2024, in a dispute with a major U.S. airlin...e. In both cases, Mr. Skidelsky provided exceptional legal representation. He was thorough, responsive, and always kept me informed. He took my concerns seriously and never made me feel like I was asking too much or didn’t understand something. What stood out most was the compassion and dedication he showed, especially in the airline matter where I felt completely disregarded by the company. Thanks to his efforts, we were able to resolve the issue without even having to file a case—and the settlement outcome was better than I ever expected. I truly don’t know what more anyone could want from an attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a smart, compassionate, and highly effective advocate.

Best lawyer

I was in a lot of trouble about 7 months ago my entire life seemed ruined. I needed a lawyer and a good one. I saw out zach mcready and his team for help and they wasted no time, getting on my case. They have very reasonable prices for the amazing job they do. Zach McCready fought tooth and nail in ...the court room and worked with the district attorney’s and the judge to get the best deal he was on top of the case the whole way. Even with all of the curve balls the court threw our way he didn’t break a sweat. I would trust zach McCready and his team for any criminal defense case. Truly saved my life.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"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."
