Susan Patricia Sneidmiller

I came to meet Susan under the most stressful conditions one might ever come across; the mother of my children was killed in the Seal Beach Salon shootings three years ago, almost to the day of this review. Acknowledging that bad things happen every day; the pain and shock experienced by my children ...after the loss of their mother goes beyond what any parent should ever have to witness. Two years into this nightmare, it came to my attention that multiple parties, beyond direct family members of the victims involved, had filed wrongful death suits against the shooter; I knew the kids had a family member on their mothers side who had secured counsel to handle the kids mother's estate and represent the entire family in pursuing a wrongful death law suit but I began to wonder if my kids were being represented adequately. I reached out to a friend who suggested I contact Susan to see if she could look into my concerns. As it turned out, the decision to contact Susan on behalf of my children was one of the best things I ever could have done for them! Without discussion of fees or compensation or any conditions at all, once Susan heard the circumstances involved, she immediately offered her assistance. The first thing Susan did was to check the current court records in an effort to determine who had filed and on behalf of whom; I was shocked when she reported back that the kids were not named the pending suit. This was the children’s one and only mother and they were not even on the suit; this was a shock to me. The next shock was when Susan informed me that the kids only had 4 business days to file if they even wanted to file; this was a Thursday. The more Susan dug into the facts the more she reported something didn't seem right; her instincts were spot on. Susan pulled a quick attorney/client contract together, over the weekend, which empowered her to represent the kids and drove to our personal home on a Sunday to get everything in order, allowing her to file on the kids behalf the following Monday. Once she was able to file, two days before the statuette of limitations for filing expired, only then did she find out how close the kids were to being excluded completely from any right to negotiations that were already under way. This proceeding was not subjective and I don't know exactly what went on as I was not legally involved and had no right to know, which led to my worrying about what I could not effect. Susan was reassuring to me the entire way as she walked the kids through the legalities involved and prepared them for their day in court. As emotions raged on through this process Susan never wavered, she never let the clouded and highly emotional expressions of the kids deter her from her path of assuring those kids got what their mother would very much want for them; fairness. While I was never made aware of the actual numbers involved, I know they certainly weren’t life changing, but I do know my kids are a little better off than if Susan had not come into their lives. Even after the case was closed, Susan went above and well beyond what I would ever expect out of a lawyer and she will forever hold a special place in this father’s heart. If you are looking for a lawyer who embodies the heart of a lion with the compassion of an angel, stop looking and call Susan…NOW!

Attorney Susan Sneidmiller handled my personal injury case after I was involved in a car accident. Because she is an R.N., and she has an extensive medical background, she was able to instruct me through the course of my doctors treatment, my physisical therapy, along with dealing with my insurance.... Sneidmiller is professional and yet very personable. She was extremely clear when explaining my options and the legal theories pertaining to my case. She was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had regarding my accident. She was very organized and kept me apprised of every step of my case including interactions with opposing counsel. The best part about using Sneidmiller as my Attorney was the fact that she settled my case for substantially more money than I expected to receive! Sneidmiller put the time, care, and detail into every step of my case and got me the results to prove it!

Susan Sneidmiller is a caring, intelligent and sharp Attorney. She addresses every aspect of the Case and lets you know the best course of action. She is trustworthy and made herself available to me and kept me updated on all matters concerning my case. She presents herself very well and leaves no... stone unturned investigating all avenues. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs great representation.
