Aloha was very helpful & we all know calling an attorney for any reason is a stressful situation. With Aloha she made me feel like contacting my court appointed lawyer was going to be OK. Not to worry because they are on my side . Thanks so much Aloha I am not sure if I am spelling her name correctly but if you call & talk with her you will know why I gave such a great review....

I was lucky enough to have James Petelin represent me during an unfortunate situation. I had little experience (no experience) with the legal system prior to hiring James. I found him to be open and honest, straight forward and blunt. He did not make any promises and laid out the exact obstacles I was facing. As awkward as it might sound it was the most relieving moment. I knew he was perfect to represent me moving forward. Beyond that during court James is prepared and professional. He did a tremendous job advocating for me.

I met Mr. Petelin through my husband who served in the Navy Reserves with him. I'd been representing myself in family court since 2012 and never truly needed to hire an attorney, but after my daughter's father moved out of state, things...escalated...and there was no question that I needed professional legal support and guidance. I needed someone to take the reigns this time and forge a path in unfamiliar territory for me, for my daughter.
Mr. Petelin was that person. He was thorough, reassuring, informative, responsive, strong, knowledgeable, and confident. He blazed that trail all the way through trial and to the best custody orders I've ever heard of a judge writing. I was blown away. He is that good!

this attorney will not answer the phone if he’s appointed to you. He is a dump truck. Myself and my daughter been trying to get him to call us back for two weeks. Typical attorney that is “appointed. Don’t care about their clients. They just care about those measly pennies that they get.

First time calling his office and let me tell u was his staff RUDE AS HELL said she couldn’t get my message to James until my court date nd she wouldn’t even give me her last name. I had to call 2x nd both times she wasn’t nice or professional wouldn’t recommend
