Critical: Professionalism
This place called me 50 times pressuring me to do something I didn’t want to do. When I wanted to talk to a legitimate lawyer, with ACTUAL credentials, they never called me back. Just forwarded me on to different retention agents, if they are even real? They were just pressuring, vague, and ignorant. Avoid!

Julie is not only professional she is compassionate. She fights for your rights. She is always available and answers questions that may seem simple for an attorney to understand, however not so simple for a person who does not understand the complexities of bankruptcy law. She knows in ins and outs of this difficult line of law. Bankruptcy law is so different then any other kind of law. She handled my case so well, she was there when I did not understand what the trustee was sending in the mail. She made the creditors stop bothering me and even noticed that some of the debits of past the statue

Very unprofessional. Told him my situation and Justin Kirk (may have spelled it wrong) said “why don’t you ask who you are working with”. I restated that I don’t understand my lender and got cut off by Kirk saying “$2,500, you want bits and pieces of it that’s how much it cost” went on to more “metaphors of his work” and I asked for his name and said bye. Called another real state attorney in Santa Ana. $200 for review of the 2 papers, professional, fast, and effective. It’s that simple.

OakTree Law came to my rescue, literally. My wages were being garnished for an old tax debt, I had process servers knocking on my door, and I was in danger of losing my whole paycheck to creditors--just as I had started a new job. I called OakTree Law and they guided me through the bankruptcy process every step of the way. They were able to clear all my debt and get the IRS off my back, the feeling of relief is indescribable! I went from being a nervous wreck to having peace of mind and a fresh start within a couple of months....Amazing.

OakTree, professionals made something that can be very difficult and stressful, so easy and a lot less stressful. Thank you OakTree for helping us stay in our home, and guiding us to a almost debt free future. But mostly for helping us gain our peace of mind again. Thank you both, Russell and Julie for all you help. You two are appreciated.

VERY, VERY Happy with Oak Tree Law! They solved an issue on a predatory second mortgage that was causing many sleepless nights. They were upfront with expected outcomes and negotiated furiously on my behave. After approximately 5 months ( because of Covid) The loan was settled. After trying for YEARS on my own. I would highly recommend Oak Tree Law!

The Oak Tree Law is a great law firm that helped me through my bankruptcy case. They helped me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Their professionalism and prompt responses and calcification to all the inquiries are amazing. Every day they were there for me and helping through the process. When I first came to the firm Rex assisted me with the process and he make things easy to follow. Julie and Ryan are very knowledgeable and professional. I am grateful for their assistance and I am so happy that my choice fall on them to represent me in court.

I typically don't write reviews, as I like to consider myself more of an independent thinker, taking the time to give due diligence to researching every aspect and detail when it comes to choosing, or making a decision on a service and, or person. Which is why I found oak tree law and particularly attorney Villalobos amazing in this regard. From beginning to end they were extremely attentive and detail oriented. Taking the time to be sure all legal jargon was clear and understood by me. Displaying integrity in their work, and quality in their service. I highly recommend them.

Avoid them !! Stay away!
Especially Larry - very unprofessional, made me and pushed me to settle my case without asking for any $$ from the other side !!! Then he sends me a $11K bill for legal work. He never mentioned it until AFTER I settled... if you want the best for yourself and your case, don't go to OakTree Law - I'm speaking from experience with these horrible people.

What I appreciated most about Mark Hoffman, was him telling me upfront what would work best for me personally. He was on the phone with me for as long as I needed him, and made sure I understood some of the more complicated things, and he did not rush to end the call as he was giving me legal advise, he told me that my case would cost more. He followed up with me a few days later, after I texted him with another question, Mark was quick to respond in answering any questions I still have, and to this day I still feel very comfortable in reaching out to him. The entire time he's been patient

I hired OakTree law to handle my IRS matters, Justin was nice in the consultation he told me to file for each year and he'll take care of the rest! Justin introduces Me to Jericca who never answer my calls or follow through!! My court date comes up and I'm waiting and waiting... until I heard everyone's case, the judge finally call my case I stood and the judge ask where's your attorney? I said your honor I don't know, his reply was you can represent yourself so I did, after all I heard all the cases I knew what to say the judge discharged everything I'm thinking

They were very responsive, polite, and understanding. I am glad I was able to find them through yelp. I needed help with the grant deed process, and even tough my parents do not speak English, they were willing to help and accommodate them due to their language barrier! They helped make the process smoother. I thoroughly enjoyed working with them. When I had a question, they were there to answer, and were quick to help. Thank you OakTree Law!

Hello. I would like to inform you I called recently to see what would fit best in my situation, I spoke with Justin Kirk and I'm sorry to say he was very rude and insensitive to my questions about a debt settlement. An inheritance I would be receiving soon from my father who recently passed, which I never thought I would be receiving and to better invest that money then to pay all in debt full but into a debt settlement. I needed advise on what would be best but Justin pretty much made me feel Horrible. I was able to find another attorney at a different firm and what a difference it was speaking

My husband and I have gone to Oak Tree Law for professional assistance and the people that we have talked to are very nice especially the attorney Julie. She is well knowledgeable and really nice and helpful. She works with you when needed. I'm glad we went to see her. We feel relieved. When you need assistance ask for Julie Villalobos.Thank you Julie. You are a super lady. Plus your boys are handsome!

When you see a company that has so many 5 star reviews you tend to think they do a great job with Reputation Management. Everyone can't give a 5 star glowing review and have it be true. I am giving my 5 star review to Mark Hoffman because he answers the phone, answers his emails and spent 3 hours with us yesterday getting us from A to Z on a real estate issue we are working on. He took my super skeptical wife and made her a believer that he could help us out and did not promise the moon, but said he would do the best he could do. He gave us action steps and a plan is in place that we feel

This was the worst experience with an attorney I've ever had. The attorney's name is Justin Kirk. Horrible customer service. He got really upset because I asked him not to keep repeating the same question he had already asked me three times which I had already answered three times. At that point he asked me to leave his office. Never in my life have I ever asked to leave anywhere but. I see it as a sign. Best to be safe than Sorry. Specially with legal issues and personal information... He has a very thin skin and gets aggressive very quick and not in your best interest. So glad l walked

This review is long over due but I have to let everyone know my experience at Oak tree law. We went to oak tree law after hearing them advertise on 99.5 had a consultation with Marissa. Oaktree told us to be proactive and keep in contact with our bank so we did. Oaktree law tells us we need to bk to keep our house so we did. Oaktree law did not finish paper work for bk because they forgot to file something. Found this out January 2014. We filed bk in August of 2013. Oaktree law wasn't as proactive with us like they have been with all these other reviews. Marissa started off nice but at the
