As an observer and supporter of my daughter's efforts to obtain a divorce and fair child support and visitation schedule against difficult odds and relentless opposition, I witnessed a very high level of professional competence coupled with the ability to relate to the client's problems with understanding and empathy. From the top down, scrupulous integrity, finely-honed skills and thoughtfully applied creativity were evident throughout our extended interactions with the firm.

I spent a lot of money getting an important stipulation done, but it was worth every penny. There is an end in sight for spousal support! All the staff were great, professional and top notch. They got the job done!

There are no words to adequately express my gratitude for the services I received during the course of my, unusually complicated divorce. The entire team guided me through an extremely difficult period in my life. Their caring, for me as a person as well as a client was always evident throughout the process. Each and every member of this remarkable team remained professional, competent and effective to the very end. I have to extend extra thanks to Robert, Yvette, and Matthew for their exceptional expertise; having them on my side gave me a peace of mind that I will always be grateful for.

These guys did a great job. In particular, the team approach really set them apart from other law firms, lending the obvious benefit: some lawyers are better at attention to detail, some litigation, some in managing relationships. All were important to me; however, rarely do those traits all lie within a single person. With the team at Farza & Ochoa, all of those strengths were delivered.

Great law firm! I had never needed representation before my divorce and had no idea what the process was or how to go about it. With the help of my attorney's, my case was settled precisely as Farzad Law had laid out according to my wishes and agreements with my estranged wife. I would highly recommend this firm if you are looking for a divorce attorney.

Farzad Law is well-qualified for all family law matters. Robert Farzad is extremely knowledgeable in family law. I found his tutorials both informative and easy-to-read, in language we can all understand. Robert and his office staff are professional and are timely in following up on inquiries. Farzad Law uses a methodical process to evaluate your case. Their success rate is high, due in great part to their planning and strategy process. I highly recommend Farzad Law.

I am writing this review on behalf of my friend who wanted to leave a review for Farzad, but wanted to stay anonymous at the same time.

Farzad was very friendly and welcoming upon meeting him. I had a family issue that needed consultation, and he was very informative about my options and the possible costs that would come with hiring him. Ultimately, he was very detailed in explaining all my options and after the consultation was over, he told me how much his retainer was and that his honest opinion was not to hire him (because he saw that as the best option). He also ended up refunding my consultation fee, which he absolutely did not need to do, but was very nice of him. I would definitely recommend seeing Farzad for any family issues, as he is informative and honest.

After 5 years of trying to negotiate custody for my son through other law firms, and having to settle for minimal visitation rights, I now have 50/50 custody for my son, thanks to Mathew and Ashley who were able to help me!!! I am highly satisfied with their services, I would recommend farzad Family Law to anyone in my former situation. Thank you!!!!

When I contacted Farzad Family Law to handle my divorce there was one thing that was important to me: I did not want to fight with my ex-wife verbally on the way out. A couple are married for many years and the last thing they do is say a lot of vile things that they later regret and have to live with. FFL handled this for us very well and I highly recommend them.

Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Robert and his staff. I contacted Robert via email around 1:30am out of desperation and I received a phone call same day. I was immediately put at ease by speaking with Robert regarding my case. My ex-husband had filed for full custody of our daughter for the second time in five years. Needless to say, I was in a state of shock and disbelief and desperate for help.

Robert and I met a few days later and after reviewing all of the information I had to disprove the allegations, he took on my case. Four months later, my ex-husband not only dropped his full custody suit, but settled out of court to modifications on my terms. Robert, being the knowledgeable and stellar attorney he is, compromised with opposing counsel and my ex-husband, and managed to get my ex to agree to $10,000 in contribution towards my attorney fees.

Robert and his staff are very forthcoming with information. They are very straight forward and always kept me up to date on new developments. I felt completely safe and knew that every person working on my case had my best interest at heart; as well as my daughter. I wouldn't have had the outcome I did without the care and representation of Robert Farzad.

I highly recommend Farzad Family Law to anyone that is starting or going through a family law matter.

When my ex-wife filed papers for more custody and child support, I chose the attorneys at Farzad Family Law. They were professional, honest and always had my best interest in mind. They were always quick to return my phone calls and emails, and never beat around the bush. They will be honest and strait forward with you about your case. Because of all these amazing qualities, I was able to protect my children and actually had child support awarded to me. I can't thank the attorneys at Farzad Family Law enough for the care and dedication they put into my case. I recommend this law firm to anybody that is going through a divorce or custody battle.

Before I met Robert, I had never spent more than six hours per week with my eight month old son. I tried to fight for more time but was never able to succeed. I felt very lost and scared about what might happen because I had absolutely no understanding of the family court system. My first attorney would barely take my calls or inform me of what was going on. I contacted Robert through his website and online was on the phone with him later that same day. I explained my situation to him and he said that he thought he might be able to help me. Even after our first conversation I already felt better about everything. I met Robert at his office to discuss my case in greater detail. That was a meeting that I will never forget. After listening to me, Robert explained my options and the possibilities of what might happen. He was extremely upfront and honest with me. He then told me that he only accepts clients who are serious about their cases and who are willing to put in the hard work. This made understand that the only way Robert would fight for me was if I was willing to fight as hard, if not harder, for myself and my son. Right then, I knew that there was no one else I wanted to represent me. Robert immediately went to work preparing my case. Since things move slowly in family court, it took a while for my case to go in front of a judge. During that time, Robert did an excellent job of gathering all the facts and details he needed and preparing me for the fight that was ahead. He did a wonderful job of keeping my expectations realistic and kept me focused on the big picture. When our day in court came, I felt very confident and comfortable with Robert fighting for me. At the very first preliminary hearing, Robert was able to increase my time to include overnights every other weekend even though I live in San Diego and my son lives in Orange County. Robert was so well prepared that he knew every aspect of case inside and out. On several instances during the hearing, he even quoted multiple family law codes on the spot. This showed me the level of dedication that Robert was willing to give to my case was unparalleled. Throughout the entire process of my custody battle and divorce, Robert won on every single motion and argument that was made. He and his entire team at Farzad Family Law were so professional, courteous, and caring. Every one of his associates was always willing to take the time to make sure that completely understood everything and that all of my questions were fully answered no matter how big or how small. I now get to see me son on a very frequent and regular basis and I play a significant role in his life. I will be eternally grateful for everything that Robert has done for my family. It never felt like he treated me as just another client. He has a way of making it feel personal, as if you have a really good friend fighting in your corner. I will never entrust my case with anyone but Robert and his entire team at Farzad Family Law. I highly recommend hiring him before you find yourself going against him.

Robert Farzad and Mathew Sundly achieved what I had given up on. As a single dad pursuing primary custody, I was fighting an uphill battle that I couldn't have possibly prepared for.

I started with an attorney who was an absolute disaster. He constantly showed up late and was horrible at communicating to me what I needed to know and what I could expect. Everything that could go wrong went wrong, and I was always the last one to know about it. I switched to Farzad and everything changed.

My daughter now lives with me and my girlfriend and her mom has moved to another state. I knew that she would move out-of-state eventually and that the only chance I had to keep my daughter to live a stable life was to live with me.

While Mathew Sundly was my attorney, my only complaint was that he was not cheap. Now I know why. What Robert, Mathew, and Holly gave me and my family was absolutely priceless and I appreciate it every glorious day.

I was referred to Farzad & Mazarei by a close friend of mine. From the first phone call to the final court appearance, the professionalism and attention to detail of the staff were nothing short of fantastic. They kept me informed and most importantly, they got me results. I have to thank Matt and Holly most of all, they really got me through a difficult situation. I’d recommend Farzad & Mazarei to anyone going through a divorce, custody, separation and want to get the results they know can’t be had without professional help.

I came to Robert's office after I met someone at the court house and referred me to him. I was in a nasty divorce and needed an attorney who would take my case seriously and personally. My ex is one of those wives who would say or do anything to win sole custody of the child to have more money from child support. Robert is NOT the type of attorney who likes to lose. How many attorneys would make the judge read from top to bottom before the judge makes his final decisions. Most judges turn the pages without reading. If it wasn't for Robert I would've lost my custody and paying a lot money now. Taking care of my kid is my responsibility until my last breath. Losing a custody battle is not an option. As a father I would do anything for my child. I'm glad I chose Robert to represent me in court. Hopefully I won't be back in court to fight for my child again. But I will definitely hire Robert when I need an attorney. Thanks Robert for everything you did..

Farzad & Mazarei’s Law Firm is currently representing me in my custody case of my 1 year old son. My son’s father left the country for a year but is still seeking 50% physical custody upon his return. Everything up to this point has been great and I honestly cannot imagine being with another law firm. My lawyer has always responded to my concerns with expert advice and has successfully handled the other attorney with precision. Representation by such a strong law firm continues to give me the peace of mind that I need throughout this stressful experience. They have always kept my best interests in mind and have always advised me very wisely which is why I can say they are worth their weight in gold. I strongly recommend this firm if you are looking for attorney's that are very skilled at what they do.

In the past, I have had bad experiences with divorce attorneys, whom I spent fortunes on. Most divorce attorneys are lazy, ill prepared and bill you to death. They show up in court not knowing your case or any details.

Robert is an amazing attorney. Robert gets every detail, he prepares like nothing I have ever seen, and he is an encyclopedia of legal knowledge. Also he is enjoyable to work with and a real advocate who wants to win your case. If you have serious money at stake, he is the attorney that I would recommend in a moment. He is not cheap, but he is worth the money. He won my case, not sure there are true winners in family court, and got me the best outcome possible.

After going through two attorneys that did nothing for me but run up my bill, I was blessed to find Robert Farzad and his law firm. I have never met an attorney who was so sharp and intelligent. He ALWAYS looked out for the best interest of me and my daughter. Once I retained him I was finally able to sleep through the night and my stress levels were low. I never had to worry about anything. Robert is a genius when it comes to the law. His staff is super friendly and professional. It’s hard to find lawyers that have hearts anymore, but you can count on him. My case was very, very complex, I was so impressed with his strategic planning and how well he followed thru. If he says he’ll call you at a certain time he’s always on the ball and never late. I have had my share of lawyers and if all lawyers were like him this world would be a better place. I have moved out of state and wish he practiced out here. I still have to call him time to time for advice and he always directs me in the right direction. There aren’t very many lawyers that care about you after they get their money but he does. I honestly don’t know how I would have gotten through my divorce without Robert and his hard working team!

I highly recommend Robert Farzad and Farzad & Mazarei. He is well versed on divorce, child custody and family law. He is accountable and expects the same from you. Robert insists on total honesty. He creates a well thought out plan for your divorce case. He handles himself professionally at all times. All you have to do is watch him come to court with his trial briefs typed up to know he is totally professionally prepared. He won some amazing awards for me in my divorce case. Most of all he saved me and my children from the abuse we were suffering. I respect Robert Farzad, his office staff and attorneys. I have had the best representation in Orange County.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the life I lead today is due to the work of Robert Farzad. I was ensnared in a deadly trap by a vengeful ex-wife intent on depriving me of the wealth I worked very hard for while at the same time alienating me from my children. The process was never-ending, I was slowly bleeding to death under unaffordable payments and I was deprived of seeing my young son. Then, I got smart and did what I should have done originally. I fired my existing lawyer and hired Robert. From that point on, despite my ex’s efforts at obstructing the process with every means at her disposal, the ending was already written, and all that remained was for the narrative that Robert promised to play out.

Robert cleverly maneuvered my ex into binding arbitration. He was impeccably prepared for the hearing and literally eviscerated my ex while she was under oath. By the time he was done, the arbitrator saw my ex for who she really was. The judgment reflected this in its entirety. I was awarded virtually all remaining assets, visitation was set according to my wishes and support cut to next to nothing.

After the judgment was rendered, Robert worked relentlessly to enforce it despite my ex’s efforts to obstruct. Finally, he obtained full custody of my son for me. Throughout the process, Robert was very fair with his billing, and I feel that the money I spent was worth it. Divorce is a life-changing experience, and the end result will determine the quality of your life. If you don’t hire Robert, you are making a mistake, one that you will have to live with for many years. He has my highest recommendation.
