I would highly recommend this law firm. They provided confident litigation and solid recommendations to us. This was a very stressful situation and they walked us through the process and what we should expect. They where correct on all accounts. Very strong representation.

WK Law took my case while I was facing 10 years to life in prison. My situation was extremely rare due to the details of my case, and WK Law was able to see that and take care of me. My legal battle lasted a little over a year, but by the end, my final punishment was a 3 year probation time. Mr. Cohn was able to work closely with the AUSA and myself with my benefit in mind. I am very pleased with the representation I received. If I had to go back and choose again, I'd choose WK Law every time.

Wallin & Klarich has been instrumental in helping me get my life back. I felt that I was listened to and that my attorney had my best interests in mind. When my case first began I felt that the whole office was working on getting things resolved and keeping me and my family safe and that the resolution of my case was handled well.

Wallin & Klarich helped me with my child custody matter in West Covina. I have to say I am very happy with the service I received. They were available 24/7 over the phone and I felt as if the relationship between their attorneys and I was very personal. They are experienced, caring, and very good at what they do. I recommend them for any family law matter you may have.

Very professional. Second attorney, Gregory, was exceptional and very thorough in providing the documents requested by the court. He showed passion and positive attitude and informed me at all times.

First of all I would like to thank Matt Wallin @ Wallin & Klarrich Law Firm for a successful outcome even though it has been a long journey. In 2016 I was allegedly accused of a crime (felony) Grand Theft Penal Code 487 PC. The malice intentions (employer retaliation) of my previous employer. The case was "DISMISSED" before the Preliminary in 2018 @ the Compton Superior Court due to insufficient evidence. He has been responsive and very knowledgeable overall and I would recommend to anyone.

The attorney in the Riverside office who I had did a good job responding quickly and explained the details of the visit to my Son for whom I had retained their services in behalf of very well.

Avoid Wallin & Klarich at all costs! I hired them in 2023, paying a $15,000 flat fee to take my case to trial and fight for my exoneration. After two years, they failed to secure a court date, ignored over 200 emails and calls, and made zero meaningful progress on my case. When I demanded a refund, they suddenly produced a fraudulent bill claiming they had used up my entire retainer and now demanded $38,000 more, despite our agreement stating no extra charges. Their billing is padded with excessive, unjustified fees for simple emails and calls. Attorney Paul Wallin misled me, falsely assuring me a billing statement was being prepared, only for them to stall and avoid accountability. This firm is dishonest, negligent, and only cares about taking your money. Do NOT trust them with your case or your future!
