I rarely post reviews, but felt compelled to share our experience. We retained this firm for probate matters after confirming they handled these cases and expressing that timing was important to our family. After approximately three months, limited communication, and paying the agreed-upon fees, we were informed they would not be moving forward. This was frustrating and disappointing given the urgency we communicated. I sincerely hope others have a better experience.
Owner response

That said, we would genuinely appreciate the chance to review what happened with you directly and see what we can do to make things right.

Marie Molina has been a blessing with her care and support. At first I thought Bay Legal had outsourced me to another company but that wasn’t the case. I would definitely recommend Bay Legal

Jayson and Ashley have helped me tremendously with a construction dispute in which my previous general contractor demanded an unreasonable payment. Jayson quickly identified the key issues in the case and guided me through the entire process, advising me on the specific evidence needed to effectively challenge both the contractor and their attorney. With the team’s support and expertise, I was able to navigate the situation confidently and regain my peace of mind.
Owner response
Josey, thank you for the thoughtful review! Jayson and Ashley will be thrilled to hear this. We’re glad the team could quickly surface the key issues, outline the evidence and next steps, and help you regain peace of mind. If anything else comes up—on this matter or something new—we’re just a call away and happy to help.<br>—The Bay Legal Team

We recently started working with Bay Legal and, even as new customers, we’ve had a great experience so far. A special thank you to Marie, who helped us set up our contract and secured an appointment with an attorney at very short notice. She was extremely thorough, organized, and attentive to every detail, making sure everything was handled properly and on time.
Owner response
Thank you so much! We’re thrilled to hear your experience has been great from the start—and we really appreciate the kind words about Marie.

If anything else comes up as we continue, just let us know—Bay Legal is here for you.<br>—The Bay Legal Team
