Aaron Joseph Malo

This attorney was brought in by another lawyer at SM law firm who was much more attentive and knowledgeable. He produced no real work product. He just listened in on conversations and occasionally agreed with us or opined on various litigation strategies. He had an arrogant attitude and recorded ri...diculous hours.

Loved working with Aaron and his associate, AJ. They were responsive, hardworking, and knowledgeable. We needed someone who was really tough and experienced. They extracted us from a giant problem with a financially distressed company that ultimately ended up filing for bankruptcy. Strongly recom...mend them.

We hired Aaron on a complicated Chapter 11 case with tax issues. Aaron was masterful in guiding us through the bankruptcy process. And just as importantly, he used less expensive associates and a paralegal to help where they could, saving us a LOT of money. AJ and Melanie were great to work with. ... And Aaron was available any time, day or night, midweek or weekend, when we had questions. He got us through a really challenging situation. We are very happy we ended up working with Aaron and his team. Don’t know what we would have done without him.

We hired Aaron to handle a complex commercial litigation matter because we knew it could end up in bankruptcy. I’m sure glad we did. The other side took us from district court to bankruptcy court to the bankruptcy appellate panel to the ninth circuit. But Aaron and his team stayed with us and on t...op of things throughout the whole mess. Amazingly responsive and a creative thinker, Aaron got us to an outstanding result. We could not have done it without him. The guy is amazing. Highly recommend.
