Nalu Law Firm, San Diego, CA

I contacted Nalu Law Firm in October 2015 and had an extensive consultation with Mr. Ayad Michael Nalu about issues requiring experience in labor laws and in conflict resolution with attorneys. Mike has devoted his full attention to my issues, did an in-depth research and promptly returned to me with... the results. Unlike some other attorneys I dealt with before, he made no attempt to “sell” me services I did not need or to entice me into a risky and expensive litigation. His evaluation of my case was thorough and highly professional. His reasoning was logical using language readily understandable for anyone having no experience in legal proceedings. I know if I ever need legal assistance, Mike is going to be the first attorney I am going to call. I can highly recommend Michael of the Nalu Law Firm for legal assistance in any stage of a case requiring the services of a highly qualified and fully dedicated attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
