I will be forever grateful for having Navid Moshtael and this law firm represent me in my family court case. My case was a bit tricky and Navid and his team worked closely with me to understand the all of the details of my case. During the court proceedings, I was extremely impressed with how Mr. M...oshtael handled my case. Mr. Moshtael was well prepared for my case and knew exactly what the game plan was to get us to home plate. Mr. Moshtael, is a all about getting his clients results and not wasting time. If you want the best family law attorney contact Navid Moshtael and get him on your team. Mr. Moshtael will always be my MVP in any of my family law matters.

Navid is a truly unique attorney with a clear protector mentality for his clients. Navid and I only had a brief consultation but, due to an emergency situation of my son being taken out of state, Navid jumped in late evening and made a plan to protect him. Due to Navid's effort, my son was protect...ed in California and I was able to see my son after 3months! Navid also protected my son during another emergency situation while I was in India for a week for my Dad's medical procedure. Navid and his team worked hard to ensure I can be there for my Dad and not worry about the emergency proceedings in my absence. Despite having a stellar lead attorney backed by a solid team on my case, Navid was on top of it and kept advising me as we moved along. Navid has been very responsive on txts during exigent situations. quick brainstorming calls with Navid opened up new avenues while moving through various situations. Due to Navid's leadership, he has built a great organization of experts sharing the same passion. It shows in every aspect of an attorney-client relationship such as streamlined communications, expectation-setting, documenting, guidance on navigating with opposing party, etc. I strongly recommend Navid for any family's legal needs. I have talked, consulted and worked with other attorneys and Navid sets a new benchmark !

After an extensive search for the right attorney, weeding through those that either generally had no clue and those that were afraid to take on the case, I found Navid Moshtael of Moshtael Family Law. Moshtael Family Law does not get a five star rating for being nice, even though that may be true, th...e five star rating is for the aggressive “bulldog” nature of how Navid handled my case and his knowledge of spousal support reduction. If you are looking for an attorney to get the job done, Navid is your guy. Below is what you need to know. Outcome Navid was able to negotiate a significant reduction of spousal support, including getting me other stipulations I was looking for. I will not share his strategy, you will have to call him for that, but what I will share is that I am very impressed with his approach to the case and how well prepared he was. Background When you get divorced things are not always easy, in fact they could be out right difficult. In my case, I thought I could handle things on my own (meaning no attorney), partly because we were agreeable at the time (you might feel that way to, but a few years down the road your thoughts will change) and partly because I did not feel like I could afford it. If you messed up as I did, get yourself a good attorney (Navid Moshtael). Cost The best things in life do not come free. Navid’s fees are reasonable, but that does not mean you are not going to spend some money. Navid will do the work, but you have to pay him and he will at times ask you to replenish the retainer. The guy has got to eat you know. He will work with you in terms of the retainer and his accounting team is super friendly. Do the math: attorney cost vs. cost of alimony over time. Participation Remember this is your case. You MUST participate! Just like when you go to the doctor, the doctor only knows what you tell him/her. Just think of him as your quarterback and you as the coach on the sidelines. You call the plays, but the quarterback can call audible. You know your ex-spouse, what he or she is thinking and will do. Share as much information as you can in the beginning and along the way. If you anticipate something or have knowledge of something, you need to give your quarterback a heads up so he can have the advantage. What you need to know - Your case is going to take some time. Be patient, but listen to Navid and file your RFO in the beginning. Regardless of how you feel or whether or not you want to negotiate, get the RFO in. It will start the clock. - Navid does not work by himself. He is your strategist and point man (only if you request it). He has a team of individuals that will do various jobs. You will need to work with the team and remember that it is your case. You need to take the reins. - If you do not know what is going on, if you have questions, if you see something wrong. Speak up! It is on you.

Back in March, my wife and I decided to separate. I thought that the separation would last a short period of time and that we would figure things out. But once I found out that my ex had no positive intentions and that she was preparing for "war" and that she would try and take me to the cleaners, I ...realized that this was something I could not take care of on my own, and that I needed experts on my side to have my back and to help defend me from all the road blocks, speed bumps, and issues that my case could possibly result in. And I was absolutely right; my ex had a very aggressive game plan, that I was unaware of, and ever since then we have been in an extremely contentious custody/financial/divorce battle with bogus accusations, lies upon lies, and heartless behavior from the opposing side. I was so scared and nervous, and anxious and I had no idea what I was going to do or who I would turn to. I called maybe over 20 attorneys, and I was not impressed by any of them. I felt as though they were all just telling me what I want to hear instead of telling me the truth. I remember this quite well; it was a Sunday morning, and I came across Moshtael Family Law Orange County and I sent the office a message. I expected to hear back from them the following day; but ten minutes later; Mr. Navid Moshtael himself messaged me back and told me that he would be able to make time for me that very day on his day off/weekend. We spoke for about an hour at no charge, and he quickly impressed me with his knowledge, experience, wisdom, and his empathy towards my situation. And he was the first attorney to tell me the truth of what I should expect moving forward. He did not BS me, he told me how it was, and he gave me a step by step plan as to how we would game plan for all the crud that would be thrown at us during the entire process. And something else I really appreciated from him was that due to my financial situation at that time the retainer was set at a certain amount; but he reduced it in order to allow me to be able to actually afford his services. Thank you for that Navid! The next day, I retained the services of this office. I was assigned Mr. Lance Duran who is an excellent, excellent attorney who has had my back every step of the way! He knows when to be aggressive, when to be more cautious, and he has been able to get me, the most favorable custody/and support schedule for me at this time; with the game plan to get an even more favorable schedule in the coming months. My paralegal Brandy Chapin has been able to answer every single question I have, and if she can't she will do whatever it takes to find the answer for me. The accounting department always work with me and they understand my financial situation and they never make me feel pressured in any way. I just met Adrian Rogers, and Rebecca Stone who have been great in helping me with all my discovery items. Everyone their is professional, nice, empathetic to your situation, and amazing at what they do. This team is efficient, timely, and most importantly.....THEY HAVE MY BACK! During the most difficult time in my life, I have the most amazing team behind me, and as long as that is the case I will always feel confident, hopeful, and optimistic as to what the future holds for me, my children, and my future. Thank you guys! I don't know what I would have done without you guys!
