Law Office of Zachary D. Wechsler, APC - Torrance, CA

If you have a case that requires the BEST representation possible, look no further, Zach is the attorney for you. I'm an attorney and interview, train, and mentor attorneys for a living, so hiring another attorney to represent me in my own case was very important. I couldn't be any happier with my decision to hire Zach. He is thoughtful, compassionate, extremely bright and well liked by colleagues and judges. He was in constant contact with me throughout my case, executed a brilliant legal plan, and achieved an AMAZING result. I'm forever grateful.

Zach is great to work with--he's responsive, cost conscious, and candid. More importantly, he's an expert. If I had to do it all over again, I would still go with Zach, but I would have reached out to him much, much sooner. His expertise was invaluable and reassuring. I absolutely recommend him.

Having a legal background, I was very cautious about finding the right lawyer to handle a matter for me. I hired Zachary D. Wechsler after researching attorneys in this area of law and his name came up from other attorneys as someone they would use. Over the course of representation, he kept me updated on the status and always was fast to reply to any messages or emails sent with any questions that I had. He was able to successfully handle the matter. Even if the results were not the same, I would still highly recommend him due to his professionalism and straight forward personality. I would not hesitate to use him again for any matters in this area of law.

Zachary assisted me with a complex matter with the California Bar and did an excellent job in addressing the matter. He also has a compassionate approach which was much appreciated during a very trying time in my life. I would seek Zach's help if I need anything in the future in the L.A. area. Best regards, J.M. Sandlow

Thank you Zach for everything. I cannot overstate What Zach was able to accomplish on my case. Between the ages of 15-19 I was charged with over twenty (20) different crimes. I spent months in juvenile hall and La County Jail. Although I completely changed my life around and had numerous recommendations from deans and professors including several awards many people, including attorneys, told me there was no way the moral character committee would ever accept my application. Zach got my application approved in a year. It cost me an arm and a leg and a very rigorous process and many times through out I really didn’t like Zach. But at the end it was worth every penny and every second I spent listening to him. ZACH IS THE BEST THERE IS AND I RECOMMEND HIM UNCONDITIONALLY TO ANY AND EVERYONE

Today I received news from Zachary D. Wechsler that I passed the Moral Character component of the California Bar! This is less than two weeks after Zach submitted my letter! I am grateful to Zach for his role in making that happen. I understand every case is different, and not all individuals receive a positive outcome, notwithstanding that fact I wholeheartedly recommend retaining Zach for any admissions related issue. I received a Moral Character Application request for additional information and did research on several California Moral Character attorneys prior to contacting Zach, and I am relieved I did. Zach is superb attorney who has decades of knowledge on the California Moral Character Application process and knows exactly what to say so that you can put your best foot forward when you are under the microscope. First, he will conduct intake to understand where you are coming from. A person who is an excellent communicator knows how to listen carefully to his clients and Zach does precisely that. Secondly, Zach goes above and beyond most attorneys because he can anticipate from reading your letter what caught the Moral Character investigator’s attention—he flagged certain issues in one of our first discussions and pointed out minor issues that were of lesser significance. That put me at ease. Third, when you are going through the process of writing your letter to the investigator, Zach knows how to tweak it to highlight relevant issues with supporting law, if applicable. In my case, he was upfront about the fact that I specifically did not need to admit to doing something which I did not do nor did I need to hedge. Fourth, Zach responds quickly to your phone calls and emails—in one case I need to ask Zach about whether I should send someone a character witness support letter, Zach picked up the phone immediately and told me to send the individual a declaration instead with specific language. Fifth, his retainer and fees are both reasonable for any major metropolitan area in the United States—they seem even more reasonable after the fact if you do due diligence, keep all notes, and compile all the documents in a lawyerly manner. You put in the time before law school, during law school, during the bar—you should take the Moral Character Application just as seriously (if not more seriously), than all the above and retain an attorney who can offer you peace of mind.

Zach Wechsler definitely made a heart wrenching and nerve-racking process much more tolerable. Zach eased my worries and made sure I didn't disadvantage myself. I feel that hiring Zach expedited the approval process. Zach stuck with me until approval. Ultimately, when Zach forwarded to me my approval, he made more than just my day. I feel that hiring Zach ensured admission as a lawyer, a career for which I work so hard.
