Very good lawyer

Felix assisted me with a complaint against my license by the BRN. He was very knowledgeable and responsive and easy to talk to. He put a lot of work into my case and gave me good advice. Highly recommended.

Felix Poggemann-5 Stars all around

Felix did an amazing job advising me on a potentially problematic issue regarding an appeal with the CA Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board (CUIAB). I was confident that the facts supported my position, and Felix helped me best present my side of the story. The Administrative Law Judge decided compl...etely in my favor, validating my claims. Thanks Felix!

Felix George Poggemann, Esq. Great man, great attorney!

When I began to navigate the complexities of family law to obtain a divorce, it quickly became apparent that I needed someone to guide me through the process. Luckily, I found Felix Poggemann, Esq. He took the time to listen to my situation, outline a plan of action and explain what was involved with... each action that was taken. He answered my many questions, patiently tolerated my tears and made me feel that he was my advocate, especially in court. I trust him and admire his keen intellect, analytical ability, knowledge of the law and ability to produce a favorable outcome for me. He is amazing at strategy and always seems to be at least two steps ahead of everyone else involved. He helped me understand the important issues of my case and focus on those areas without wasting time or money on issues that were of little consequence. I am grateful that I found an attorney with compassion for me and my circumstances. He is honest and forthright with high personal and professional standards. He made a very difficult experience feel safer and more tolerable. I've learned a lot from him in the process. He has been especially brilliant with the financial complications of my case and is tenacious in discovering hidden income and inconsistencies insisting on full disclosure to protect my spousal rights. Nothing gets by this guy! I highly recommend Felix Poggemann as your attorney if you want the best. I would and already have recommended him to others.

Five Stars from this former client.

I highly recommend Mr. Poggemann. I had a difficult support issue with my divorce settlement and I found his in-depth knowledge to be both comforting and helpful with my case. He was responsive and spoke to me like I was a human being (something that previous attorneys did not). Five Stars from this ...former client.

We could not have done it without Felix Poggemann

From the first time we stepped into Mr. Poggemann's office to our last day in court, we knew we had the absolute best attorney possible. He was personable without being phony. He listened to us and carefully planned the strategy to enable us to accomplish the seemingly impossible task of obtaining ...custody of our grandchildren. Because he has great insight, he was able to encourage us when times were unsettling. His ability to represent us in court was impressive and invaluable. Mr. Poggemann knows the law and anticipates how judges may interpret it. He was always warm and caring, even when he had to be firm to calm our stressed out emotions. He has a terrific sense of humor which relieved many tense moments. We prevailed in court but even if we would have lost, we would still sing his praises. This guy is a top-notch attorney. If we ever need legal representation again, we know where to go.

Divorce and separation lawyer | Jul 26

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Felix is a lawyer's lawyer. What do I mean by that? As a personal injury attorney, part of my obligations to the community I serve is to know who the "go to" people are for legal issues that fall outside my expertise. Whenever a client of mine, or prospective client presents an issue relating to divorce, separation, child custody, support, I, without hesitation, recommend Felix. Unlike most attorneys, Felix is compassionate, yet incredibly smart and savvy. He has the skills necessary to keep folks calm in very tense and emotional settings, and the legal skills to protect his client's interests and serve their needs. Additionally, he has wonderful taste in music and a keen sense of humor."
