I highly recommend Julian.
I had the pleasure of working with Julian when he represented me during an employment and labor case. Julian is so professional and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to make sure that I was aware of all aspects of my case. I feel so blessed that he was representing me during a time that was very vulnerable personally. I would highly recommend that anyone who wants a dedicated and passionate attorney look to Julian. Thank you Julian!

Santa Barbara Attorneys You Should Work With
Mr. Alwill makes complex legal issues very clear. He has been a strong advocate, no matter the experience or resources of the opposing attorneys involved. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of help during a difficult time.

I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER ATTORNEY
Julian Alwill along with his partners at Anticouni & Associates gently guided me through a very difficult time in my life. In my line of work I am a mandated reporter of suspected elder abuse. The decision to hold my former employer accountable for their unethical practices was not an easy one to make. Doing so ultimately lead to my termination. After such a life altering experience I was lost and found myself questioning whether or not I had done the right thing. Julian was more than willing to accept my case, confirming that I had done what was necessary to maintain the safety of the elderly people I had cared for for so long. I had never been involved in a lawsuit before. Julian thoroughly explained every step of the process to me and kept me well informed of each development in my case. I was confident he was the right attorney to expertly deal with my former employer. My case was settled quickly, and thanks to Julian I am able to move forward with my life and put this all behind me knowing I did do the right thing.

Great Lawyer!
Julian helped me with a case against my old employer after I was fired for being pregnant. I was so upset and didn't know what to do. Julian was my attorney and was very understanding and really helped me out. He explained everything so that I could understand, and he was very confident and in control when it came to dealing with the other lawyer and my old employer. We got a great settlement and I can't thank Julian enough.

Excellent lawyer
Julian Alwill successfully mediated a difficult dispute between me and my employer over withheld back wages. I was very impressed by both his knowledge of the law and his negotiating skills. Throughout a very long deposition he was always poised and self-assured, and gave me a sense of confidence that he was in control of the proceedings. He is an articulate speaker who thinks fast on his feet, and a savvy negotiator. I would unconditionally recommend him to anyone in difficult circumstances who needs legal counsel and representation.

Excellent Attorney
I have been working with Mr. Alwill for about two years now and he has proven himself to be a good and a very intelligent Attorney. The services provided by him are outstanding and amazing. All of our clients have spoken to me about how satisfied they were with the outcome of their cases. In addition, Mr. Alwill assisted me with my own personal family law issues regarding legal custody of my daughter. I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal assistance with both employment and family cases.

Highly recommend this attorney.
Mr. Alwill assisted me with my child support issues and was very helpful. He was very realistic as to what I could expect and was very supportive during a very difficult period. He is pleasant to work with, kept me informed at all times, and explained confusing legal situations so that I could understand and make informed decisions. I would highly recommend this attorney. While he is young, I would never know it from the way he handled my case.

Julian Alwill developed the legal strategy for our business problem, then drafted and filed the papers, and managed a complex financial dispute with a Fortune 1000 entity. He demonstrated both the thoroughness and creative legal approach to the legal issues that reflect the talents of an attorney with 20 years experience.

Excellent cousel
Mr. Alwill provided excellent legal service on a case for employment discrimination that I had brought after enduring a very intimidating work environment. I am a single mother and the sole provider for my children. I was frantic that if I lost my job, my kids and I would be out on the street. But going to work became almost more than I could bear. Mr. Alwill walked me through a strategy for how we should best approach the problem, while preparing the legal documents to serve on my employer. Once my employer was served, the harassment stopped. Under his guidance, I had found other work in a related field so that when the case went forward, I was no longer at my old firm. My settlement was almost 50% higher than we had anticipated. Very high recommendation for this young attorney.
