Steve Hemmat, attorney and his excellent paralegal John Avi Socha helped our son to secure an order of protection against his ex-girlfriend. Before we hired Steve Hemmat we tried to navigate the judicial system independently. We are educated people and one would think we could figure this system out given the many, many guides provided by the court system yet THIS IS NOT the case and please pay good attention to what I am saying here. Hiring an excellent attorney such as Steve Hemmat is worth the cost; which was reasonable as he and John are very efficient and intentionally work to keep costs down. Navigating the courts outside of a pandemic would be difficult. During a pandemic with offices closed, everything is online, via email with very slow turn around times, legal jargon, multiple forms to complete and to enter is truly overwhelming. Steve and John took all of this on as they are experts in their field. Steve and John were always available when I phoned and if not as they may be in a meeting, John would always email me to let me know he could take emails and could respond this way, so I would not have to wait for a response. This made such a difference for me as this was a very emotional and frightening time as my son was in danger. John and Steve listened and assured me throughout the experience with rational direction to help me trust the process. They prevailed! The protection order is in place for a year and my son can begin again. I highly recommend Steve Hemmat attorney to anyone. He and John Avi Socha make a great team. I do not believe we would have had the same outcome had we not hired them.

Steve and John have been helping me with my tough international divorce case since last September. During the process, they were not only a good support in the case itself, researching all possible solutions, taking actions on things confidently, nailing things down by choosing good timings, but also a very good support mental-wise. I am super grateful that they successfully got my case done and neither time consuming nor money consuming. So I highly recommend Steve and his team. It is a team that you can fully trust.

Mr. Hemmat was very helpful with my unique family law situation. He took the time to understand the entirety of the situation, develop a plan, and execute. We did not settle when that seemed to be the easier option available. He fought for my parental right's and made sure everything was fair and reasonable. He did not let me get taken advantage of. Mr. Hemmat was available for questions and concerns I had via phone and email with a timely response. He made me feel heard, understood, and would walk through the options with me. Talking sense to me when I needed it. Very easy to communicate with. Mr. Hemmat was very personable through out the duration of my time as his client. I highly recommend Mr. Hemmat for any family law matters. He is on your side, will not let you get taken advantage of, and will fight for you.

I found Steve to be noticeably astute and savvy. He was sympathetic and engaging to my concerns. He has an impressive breadth of legal knowledge that he skillfully applied to a potentially contentious estate planning situation after gathering all necessary data. If I ever need legal assistance again he will be the first attorney I call.

Mr. Hemmat is willing to listen. I feel like this is his greatest strength. We are dealing with a very complex situation which Mr. Hemmat was willing spend the time to understand. I really appreciate the consultation and hope you experience his sincerity as we have.

Steve is a game-changer! He was highly effective at cutting through volumes of false and misleading accusations made against me by my ex wife and her unethical attorney. They attempted to get my ex-wife sole custody of our two daughters. I had begun with an attorney from Goldberg-Jones and it did not go well. Out of frustration, I then represented myself for several months. The case was a mess and the judge assigned had made it substantially worse. I began consulting with Steve about 8 months into my case. Steve is excellent at sifting through information and determining what is the most valuable. In the end, instead of losing custody, I ended up gaining primary custody of my oldest daughter - the one worst abused by her mother. There is no way I could have achieved this on my own. Steve’s work got the best possible outcome for my children given the court system and circumstances. I only wish I had hired him from the start!

I consulted with and subsequently hired Steven Hemmat with regard to a personal injury claim. I had been involved in a preventable accident while volunteering at a health care facility, sustaining multiple serious injuries. Steve filed a personal injury claim on my behalf. I was particularly impressed with the way Steve operates his legal business with such efficiency. He is straightforward, gives his client at least weekly updates, and encouragement throughout the process. Steve possesses substantial legal expertise, plus he is a thoughtful, compassionate man by nature. He was able to bring my personal injury claim to mediation, resulting in a satisfactory settlement. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven A. Hemmat to anyone seeking legal advice or dealing with legal issues. Steve will do an excellent job for you.

Steve had definitely walked me through every step of the way through WA's very complicated "Parenting Plan" process and documentation, in the most simplest way I could understand. He's done such a wonderful job at always being concise enough to get his point across, but with most importantly keeping in consideration of what MY expectations were for my child through drafting the plan. Steve's intentions has always been trustworthy. Through all the emotions and heartaches that I've dealt with in the past and at current with fighting for what we felt was right for my child, he never once fell off track with an oversight. If it weren't for Steve's knowledge and impeccable service that he has provided, I would not be in a better situation, than I was before.

I hired Steven to handle my divorce settlement. At every step he was great about communication, often leaving me a detailed voicemail as well as an email. This was especially helpful when I was busy at work and needed a quick update, but wasn't available for a lengthy call at that immediate moment. When we got started, I expressed financial concerns and did not want to exceed the retainer amount. Steven provided me with several tools to do my own calculations so that he would not charge me for extra time deciphering my financial statements. This resulted in more work on my end, but rather than explaining the nuances, I could quickly complete the inputs he needed and we could spend our time on my specific questions and determining next steps. This was my preference, and I did not want the process to be completely out of my hands. It helped me understand every aspect of the case. My ex continuously changed the terms of our agreement leading up to the final settlement. I often felt the terms were aggressive, punitive, and unfair. Steven did a good job of pushing back when it was deserved and helping me swallow the tough pills when there wasn't a good argument. He did a lot of research on previous cases similar to mine, and sent me the research to review and ask questions. We worked through several outcome scenarios together to determine the best course of action. On the last day, I panicked and thought maybe it wasn't the ideal outcome. Steven was level-headed and we talked through the agreement again. He assured me that under the circumstances it was favorable. Given the tough situation, it would have been impossible to feel like I "won", but I think Steven helped me find a fair solution that worked for all parties.

I retained the services of Mr. Hemmat based on a referal from a law colleague. I could not have been more please. Mr. Hemmat's experince in divorce law was evidence in every phase of my divorce. He was fair and transparent with his billing throughout. Once he got my feedback about what I thought would be an ideal outcome and what was realistic, he put a plan in place and never deviated from it. Mr. Hemmat was even keeled when I got emotional and kept us moving forward with the plan. I got the outcome I had hoped for while also feeling I had been fair to my ex-spouse. I would highly recommend Mr. Hemmat to anyone who wants an honest, fair, and transparent attorney who has invaluable experience in this realm of the law.
