Navid Moshtael

To the Team at Moshtael Family Law, In August 2025, my life entered one of its darkest chapters. In an effort to relocate our children to a non-Hague Convention country, my ex-wife filed domestic violence allegations against me. A Temporary Restraining Order was granted, and from that moment forwa...rd, everything I knew about my life was turned upside down. After working with two different attorneys without finding the direction and confidence I desperately needed, I was fortunate to find Mr. Moshtael. That was the turning point in my case—and in my life. From the very beginning, Mr. Moshtael’s reputation in court, his professionalism, his compassion, and his sense of responsibility gave me a level of reassurance I had not felt in months. For the first time since the TRO was issued, I felt that I was in capable hands. After nearly six months of struggle and uncertainty, the domestic violence allegations against me were dismissed. The team fought diligently to protect my rights and to ensure that justice prevailed. Words cannot fully express the depth of my gratitude. I would like to especially thank Mr. Moshtael, Attorney Reza Bayat, Assistant Tia Makakaufaki, Clerk Nicole Martinez, and Legal Secretary Victoria Mathus. Each of you worked tirelessly on my case, often staying late and going above and beyond what anyone could reasonably expect. In particular, I want to express my deepest appreciation to Mr. Bayat. Despite being an attorney at a major law firm, he personally invested extraordinary time and care into my case. Understanding the financial burden I was under, he worked late into Friday evenings and continued working through the weekend to help move my case toward settlement, all while maintaining constant communication with me. That level of dedication and empathy is something I will never forget. I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am for everything this firm has done for me. If you are facing any family law matter, do not take unnecessary detours. I cannot recommend Moshtael Family Law highly enough.

I cannot thank Moshtell Family Law Firm enough. When I felt all hope was lost in my move-away custody battle, I had a meeting with Navid who reassured me, and took on my case, they gave me the hope I needed. I was then assigned to Duran and his team, and they were so amazing. Over the course of two l...ong years, they stood by me through every challenge, and in the end, we achieved a successful outcome. Duran was an exceptional trial lawyer, focused, strategic, and aggressive when needed. He handled the trial with remarkable skill and dedication. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. Stacy, the paralegal on my case, was an absolute gem. She was kind, attentive, and always took the time to answer my questions, ensuring everything was handled flawlessly. Throughout the entire process, the team at Moshtell Family Law Firm guided me with honesty, professionalism, and genuine empathy. I recommend them to anyone in need of a dedicated and skilled family law attorney.

Navigating family law as a father is an uphill battle. The system often feels stacked against you, the legal landscape is complicated, and every misstep can have life-altering consequences. I knew from the start that I needed an attorney who wouldn’t just go through the motions—I needed someone who w...ould fight for me like it was their own case. That’s exactly what I found at Moshtael Family Law, specifically with Navid Moshtael and Charles Major. I didn’t take the decision to switch attorneys lightly. I was incredibly nervous about finding the right representation. I interviewed multiple firms, each time feeling like something was missing. But the moment I spoke with Navid Moshtael, I knew I had found the right firm. His fire, passion, and command of the law immediately stood out. He wasn’t just another attorney checking the boxes—he was strategic, aggressive when needed, and relentlessly focused on protecting my rights as a father. Navid is a force in the courtroom—he’s articulate, quick on his feet, and commands respect. Watching him work is like watching a master at his craft; his ability to counter opposing arguments and present my case with clarity and confidence is nothing short of extraordinary. He understands the nuances of family law inside and out, and he leverages that knowledge to ensure the best possible outcome. Charles Major is equally impressive. He’s thorough, diligent, and incredibly meticulous in handling the intricate details of the case. He takes the time to explain the legal process in a way that’s easy to understand, ensuring that I always knew where things stood and what our next steps were. His ability to navigate the technicalities of the system and anticipate challenges was a game-changer. One of the standout aspects of Moshtael Family Law is their incredible team, and Brittany Gardner, their paralegal, is a true asset. In the midst of one of the most stressful experiences of my life, Brittany was a calm, compassionate, and understanding presence. She is incredibly responsive, organized, and detail-oriented, ensuring that no aspect of my case was overlooked. What truly sets her apart is her ability to blend professionalism with genuine empathy—she understands that family law cases aren’t just about paperwork and court dates, but about real people facing life-changing moments. Brittany took the time to listen, provide reassurance, and keep me informed every step of the way, making an incredibly difficult process feel more manageable. Having her on my team gave me confidence that I was in the best possible hands. One of the most important things about Moshtael Family Law is their commitment. They don’t treat you like just another case—they treat you like a real person with real stakes on the line. They understand that this isn’t just about legal proceedings; it’s about your family, your future, and your ability to be the father your children deserve. If you are a father facing a tough battle in family court, do yourself a favor: hire the strongest legal team possible. Moshtael Family Law is that team. They are fierce, brilliant, and deeply committed to fighting for their clients. I can honestly say that switching to them was the best decision I made. They aren’t just attorneys—they are warriors in your corner.

The family law situation I found myself in this year is what prompted me to hire an attorney for the first time. I chose Moshtael Family Law because of their emphasis on transparency and looking out for the best interest of the child(ren) involved. If I started the process all over, I would still ch...oose them. Yes, the services are pricy but you do get what you pay for with Moshtael and they are up front about their fees. I still have an open case and have had two attorneys with this firm, both of whom had and have been exceptional. I worked with Erin Noonan before she left and her consistent communication was perfect for me. My case was transferred over to Karissa Piralla and I was relieved to know it was another perfect fit. Karissa has been nothing but supportive, transparent, and realistic about the outcomes with me and that set me up for success in the long run. I feel very fortunate to know that Karissa was available to take my case and for the attention that is being provided.

Moshtael Family Law was very responsive, realistic, informative, and professional. They provided me with excellent guidance and options along the entire way, and I was extremely satisfied as a client. They empowered me with top-notch, assertive representation. I would highly recommend them to anyone!...
