Adrianos Matthew Facchetti

Search for anti-SLAPP expert on Google and there's Facchetti! And for good reason. We faced an early wash-out on a anti-SLAPP challenge and the judge was unfamiliar with anti-SLAPP and about to rule against us... Adrianos patiently explained the anti-SLAPP rulings and why the judge would be creat...ing a new negative anti-SLAPP precedent if we were ruled against. Adrianos' patient explanation along with copious examples of applicable prior decisions got the judge to listen and rule in our favor. Well done, counselor!

I have been an attorney for over 18 years. I had a potential six-figure case in the LA area, and was concerned that defendants would file an anti-SLAPP motion. I searched and found Adrianos Facchetti, creator of the California Defamation Law blog. I brought him into the case, just in time as an ...anti-SLAPP was filed weeks later. Adrianos handled this motion very well. He is extremely knowledgeable in the case law in this area, and successfully guided us through a largely winning motion, including helping us to obtain discovery that was key to our opposition. Adrianos has participated in all other aspects of the case in a positive way, including strategizing, law and motion practice, extensive discovery, and a successful mediation. I can highly recommend him especially for defamation and SLAPP/anti-SLAPP practice, and in general litigation. Duane Light SBN 169467

I had a serious allegation brought against me by an individual 2000 miles away from me, where I do not reside. I interviewed and discussed the facts with several attorneys. I found Mr. Faccchetti to be very knowledgeable, about my type of case. He was able to explain the law and various outcomes. I m...ade several calls before hiring and during each call he would answer my questions, even repeated questions thoroughly so that I could understand what was going on. Not once did he rushed me or make me feel any pressure to hire him. Upon hiring, Mr. Facchetti continued to be patient, thorough and kept me completely informed about everything that was happening with the case. Being informed was of upmost importance to me since I was unable to attend the court hearings. The other party was very difficult and definitely set on playing hard ball. Mr. Facchetti remained calm and was able to combat every obstacle that came my way, even situations that arose in my home state where he had to speak with my attorney here on a somewhat related matter.. This was no ordinary case. The case was resolved in my favor. What impresses me most about Mr. Facchetti is that his goal throughout my case was what was in MY Best Interest. Not about his pay, not about a win regardless of how it affected me in the end but again, he made sure the outcome would be in My Best Interest. Mr. Facchetti is extremely trustworthy which is a rare heard of quality or seen these days. I am so thankful that I chose Adrianos Facchetti as my attorney in this matter.

I am German citizen and had a complex law suit on internet defamation against me including several causes of actions and involving a public person. After trying several German speaking lawyers, in the hope of getting an easier comprehension of legal terms, I discovered Adrianos who convinced me ver...y fast with his dedication and commitment. Short after, much more was revealed to me: it was Adrianos’ excellent expertise, objectivity and strategic sense that led us to win the anti-SLAPP motion in shortest time and to then have the plaintiff dismiss the rest of the case with prejudice. It was a pleasure to work with Adrianos: always up to date, respectful, motivated and not to forget - a good listener with a constructive sense of humor that encouraged me during hard times. I therefore strongly recommend Adrianos and I would assign him at any time to represent again my legal interests.

I handle public relations for a very popular and well-known race car driver and we had urgent concerns about my client being defamed in several Internet posts. Adrianos responded immediately and advised us very thoroughly about the laws regarding these types of issues and advised us on a strategy to ...combat them. We have since used Adrianos services multiple times and he is always available, always responsive and can quickly get to the core of an issue and explain it to us in a way that we can easily understand. We look forward to consulting with him in the future as he has most definitely earned our trust and respect.
