Intelligent, Kind, and Patient - All the Makings of a Great Attorney!

If you are looking for an attorney who only represents tenants -- and represents them WELL -- you HAVE to go with Mr. Castellanet. He is extremely well versed in UD/eviction matters and is great at negotiating favorable settlements for his clients. He helped me through a tough situation and did so wi...th kindness and patience. He explains things extremely well, making this difficult process more digestible. If I could give 10 stars, I would. Thank you, Mr. Castellanet and team!

Special Thank You

I would like to thank you for all of your help in my case. The consultation was great and perfect for what I needed. Here I thought I was prepared, but you took the time to explain in detail what I was up against. Every question I had was responded with great explanation. I left this consultation ...with clear understanding and for that I am thankful Mark.

Unqualified and Clueless

What a waste of time and energy. I should have known better when I saw this guy's "law office" was next to a nail salon. It was unbelievably unprofessional. I felt like I was in an episode of "Better Call Saul" when I searched for an employment lawyer in the area. After meeting with this "lawyer" I l...eft more confused about what he could or couldn't do for me in my pending employment case. My "consultation" felt like nothing more than a shake down in desperation to get me to hire him. The entire meeting he was constantly bringing up new angles not even relevant to my case to see what I might agree to in order to make him sound hirable but never explained what he would actually do for my case, he only said that I needed representation, and for that representation to be him. I already knew I needed representation which is why I called a lawyer. I only called him because he's close to my home. The best thing he did provide was the contrast between a competent and knowledgable attorney and someone trying to fake it until they make it. When I left I actually went on the State Bar website to check to see if he was an actual lawyer or was I being tricked on a hidden video show. Don't even waste your time.

I am sorry you cannot recommend my services. However I have never had a physical law office of my own so I am not certain how you met me at my law office. Further at the time of your review I had never actually met a client in person as the firms I worked for were completely virtual. Is it possible you have confused me with another attorney?
