Excellent Legal Support During My Child Support Proceedings

My experience with Mr. Setlich’s law office has been exceptional. They demonstrated professionalism, integrity, and a deep understanding of the law throughout my case.

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.

In a word, unique service

If I could give him a better rating, I would. I can’t thank him enough for all his help and professionalism. Very experienced. From the moment we got started, I felt I was in good hands. The entire process was quick, painless and I feel he was on top of things always. Five starts without a doubt1

Foreclosure Defense

Knowledge is power and Setlich Law Group provides just that. Two years ago I lost my job and was unable to find work. After several unsucessful attempts at a loan modification, my family was facing forclosure of our home. That's when I contacted Mr Setlich Law Group. His assistant booked an apointmen...t for me to come in and discuss the details of the case. Mr. Setlich and Team walked in and immediately put me at ease. He has demeanor is autoritative but with empathy for your situation. He discussed the steps of the forclosure process, what I could expect given my lender lawsuit filing. In clear terms he provided me the information I needed to do what's best for my family. What impressed me the most is the fact he had our best intrest ahead of his. What could have cost me thousands of dollars did not because Mr. Setlich has integrity. He did not propose a solution that would pull money from my pocket that could help improve my situation down the road. He helped me take an honest look at my situation and make the decision that was best for my family. If you are facing bankruptcy, forclosure or financial hardship, do your self a favor and schedule a consultation with the SetlichLawGroup.com . I can assure you, everyone will sleep better and you will be empowered with the information you need to make the choice that is right for you. Thank you so much Setlich Law Group!

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.
