Wonderful lawyer, helped me with several issues

Lahaina Araneta was truly a blessing and helped me quickly solve a contract/labor dispute. I was owed payment for some freelance design work I did and after 4 months of repeated attempts to collect my fee, I had no luck. After I contacted Ms. Araneta, she sent my contractor a letter outlining her cou...rse of action and I received my funds within 24 hours! She also helped me write a freelance contract in order to avoid these issues in the future. She is a quick, yet thorough and dutiful lawyer who goes above and beyond to help her clients. She also helped me with some landlord/tenant issues I had. She is wonderful lawyer and helps easily explain complicated terms.procedures for anyone to understand. I highly recommend her.

  • 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.
