Divorce went well!

I hired him to help with a divorce. Very helpful when it came to answering all my questions. I found him to always be polite, on top of things. His team, when not available was always there as well. Thank you!

I would recommend him

I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Setlich during one of the most challenging times in my life, and I couldn't have asked for a more professional and compassionate advocate. From the very first consultation, he made sure I felt heard and informed every step of the way. He took the time to underst...and the unique aspects of my case and provided clear, realistic guidance throughout the entire process. It was reassuring to have someone so knowledgeable and grounded in my corner. What stood out most was Mr Setlich's ability to remain calm and composed under pressure, even when negotiations became tense. He always prioritized my best interests and those of my children, balancing firmness with empathy. The final outcome was fair and allowed me to move forward with peace of mind. I highly recommend Mr Setlich to anyone looking for a skilled and compassionate divorce attorney.

Best Attorney ever

I hired John and his office to help me with a couple different cases. (Probate and civil case) John showed up on time for all of our appointments, was very prepped and ready, answered any and all questions that I had, and always was very cool headed even when the civil case got heated at times. He wa...s very kind and knowledgeable of not just my case but also the law. John came to court very professional argued his A** off and ultimately got myself and my daughter the victory. He is always my first call for anything legal.

A hard working attorney you can trust

I was being charged with something that Mr. Setlich was able to help get resolved. I feel John Setlich is very experienced when it came to this matter. He provided me with reassurance, guidance throughout the entire process. I feel he really took time when it came to my specific case. Very experi...enced lawyer and I'd highly recommend him

BEWARE OF PILLED ON CHARGES

***ALERT TO ALL FORMER AND CURRENT CLIENTS*** ***PLEASE REVIEW ALL YOUR ORIGINAL AND FINAL INVOICE STATEMENTS*** I hired the law offices of John R Setlich based on the great reviews on Yelp, entrusting him with several cases from child support matters, restraining orders, and a civil suit: paying o...ver $35,650 in funds over time. Unfortunately, our attorney client-relationship derailed when the attorney breached our contract by failing to provide me with the level of legal representation that was promised. After terminating services and receiving my final statement, I discovered several discrepancies between the original and the final invoices. The discovery led me to over $6,756.50 of pilled on charges that were NOT on the original invoice statements and $5,864 of missing payments that were not applied to my account. Since I brought the matter to their attention, they refused to take my calls by continuously hanging up on me. We are going on four months and have yet to receive a refund for overpayment. This law firm is taking advantage of their clients. A complaint has been filed with the State Bar of California.
