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.

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.

We had engaged this attorney and his firm in their Orange County office for several basic business litigation matters. Aaron is fairly knowledgeable and responsive, but delegated much of the work to inexperienced associates. Work product was mediocre at best. Certain procedural mistakes were made ...that should have never been made. The service was expensive even by big law firm standards.
