Michael E. Teplinsky

From the moment I met Michael, I knew he was the attorney for me. Not only is Michael extremely intelligent, professional and compassionate, he was someone that put my mind at ease during a very difficult time. His vast knowledge of Family Law is quite impressive and helpful. His knowledge and exp...erience saved me from what could have been a long and ugly divorce. Michael is someone who truly cares about his clients and wants what is best for all parties involved, especially the children. He will go the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied with the final outcome. I completely respect and trust Michael. He is one lawyer I would absolutely highly recommend!!!

Michael has been helping me with my divorce for over a year. He is extremely dedicated to the practice of law, is very knowledgeable, trustworthy and helpful in dealing with all of the complications that go along with divorce. Michael spends the time to really understand and analyze the nuances of... the case, explains things thoroughly to the client and truly cares about his work. I would highly recommend Michael Teplinsky.

Michael is an extremely knowledgeable lawyer who I have and will continue to trust with any of my clients. As a Money Coach for divorced women it is very important for me to be able to rely and work closely with a legal professional. In addition to heading up the legal team when hired by a client Mic...hael has been a terrific resource when my client or I have a question even in a situation where he may not get hired. Michael is a team player. I would highly recommend him.

Not too many people can say they "liked" their family law attorney. But I can. Michael knew exactly how to avoid major litigation and as a result saved me probably $10s of thousands of dollars. My case never became Collaborative, but Michael knew exactly how to negotiate with the opposing side. H...e always kept me informed of my options and my legal rights, and he was always prepared and well researched. as a result, I now have a very durable settlement agreement which my family can rely on to avoid future conflict. Michael truly understands the system, and knew how to save me a fortune in legal fees. I can't thank him enough for helping complete my case in only 6 months.

Failed to note key hearing date and was forced to file a continuance, the result of which made my custody desires unobtainable due to the time frame involved. Then informed me that the only way to fix the problem was to pay a second retainer since he failed to inform me that my initial had depleted b...efore I could make an informed decision. Refused to stop working on my case while I sorted the financial problem out and then forced me to fire him by threatening to keep billing me, in writing. Also seems to be uninformed of the current state of the Los Angeles court system. Left me in worse shape than when I hired him. Can not recommend.
