Sarieh Law Offices, ALC.

I was referred to Mr. Sarieh by one of his former clients when I had realized how poor my representation was with my first attorney. My case was complicated and involved two Interspousal Transfer Grant Deeds for my separate property that my ex was contesting. Whereas my first attorney told me simply that the property issues were complicated, would make my case difficult, and encouraged me to settle, Mr. Sarieh was able to explain case law (that he was involved in no less) that supported my case and assured me that he could successfully take on my case. He did just that and more. Through several court delays and circumstances created by the pandemic, Mr. Sarieh remained steadfast in working on my case. His selection of forensic accountant, Greg Raffaele from CROSSCOR Valuations & Forensics Inc., was exactly what was needed to prove my case in court. The court agreed that all of the documentation we had supported my separate property as being just that. The court also agreed with our vocational evaluation and imputed an appropriate income on my ex-husband who had been hiding his income in order to collect an exorbitant amount of spousal and child support from me. I am more than ecstatic with the outcome. Through Mr. Sarieh's skills, the court ordered reimbursement for overpayment of spousal support retroactive to last March. Mr. Sarieh has my utmost respect as an attorney and I would highly recommend him to anyone going through a contentious divorce. He takes pride in what he does, which is obvious in his demeanor in court and in the work he produces. I have no regrets about choosing Mr. Sarieh for my legal representation.

We retained Wail Sarieh to help us out with what had been a contentious, incredibly confusing, and emotionally draining two-year long divorce process for my elderly father. Our situation was unique in that our father and his wife both suffered from dementia and were not active participants in the process. We had been working with another attorney for almost two years but there had not been any movement in our father’s case for a long period of time. Negotiations had stalled because there was a lack of communication from the other side, and both sides were struggling to divide properties and assets accumulated during and before their marriage. We needed to find an attorney that could pick up the pieces and get the ball moving in this divorce case so our father could enjoy his remaining years. We found that and more in Wail and his staff. Wail was invaluable in helping us get to a very fair settlement in very little time. Wail is incredibly intelligent, professional, driven, and tough when the situation calls for it. He is well-versed in the law and familiar with the judges, attorneys, and courts in the Southern CA area. You cannot help but think you are in good hands with Wail as he exudes confidence, and this allowed us to relax a little for the first time in months. During our first meeting with Wail, he was able to tell us things about our case and showed us invaluable documents that our other attorney had not presented in the two previous years. I wish we would have started working with Wail from day one as we would have saved a lot of time, money, and frustration. Also, I do not think you could find a better advocate for your cause then Wail. He is truly that good. I cannot recommend Wail Sarieh and his staff enough.

Very good but very expensive.

Wail is an excellent family law attorney. He is very well-versed in the law and is great in the courtroom. He gives all of his clients the utmost attention and makes them feel comfortable from day one. Wail’s years of experience and assertive demeanor make him the perfect choice for a divorce attorney.

I wasted money on a "regular" attorney before I found Wail. I was out of the country and didn't know who to hire and having a trustworthy and dependable attorney is vital. You must be looking for the right attorney reading this so bottom line, do yourself a favor and retain Wail. I was half way around the world, just wasted thousands on one attorney and (now) no attorney. I knew this was going to be a difficult divorce, we had a lot of assets. I could not easily interview prospective attorneys from my remote location and it was a horrible feeling. THEN... a friend of a friend told me about Wail. We talked on phone and I retained him but really didn't have any confidence in him. I had to have someone and I figured, "Here we go again". Was I ever wrong about that. After giving him some brief facts he got back to me immediately! He had done some research on our properties and had several good suggestions. He emailed me, called me and immediately answered questions sometimes within hours...or minutes! I returned to the U.S., met Wail and I knew I had the right attorney. As the very difficult case went forward, he and his outstanding staff took care of me. They called, emailed, did things we needed and informed me in a timely manner about every detail of the case. This was such a stress reliever. He and his staff were always on top of every event and there were many! On one occasion of importance, Wail and staff member Gabriela were calling me driving home after hours and emailing me from their homes until after 9 pm. There were so many incidents and important matters that came up in this long and difficult case but...I had Wail! He really understood my stress and was the calm in the storm. My divorce was granted, property settlement done and even though it was a horrible event in my life, I can't imagine what it would have been like without this intelligent, informed, educated and skilled attorney. I am back in my little paradise (secrete!) now but I return on occasion and Wail and his wonderful staff will be on my list of friends to visit. It was really that good.
