Noel I highly recommend Bill Makler to anyone in need of legal assistance, particularly veterans. Bill is a true expert in working with Veterans Court and has extensive experience handling legal issues specific to veterans. He works out of Santa Barbara County, and from the start, he was the only attorney who took the time to speak with me directly. Bill is professional, compassionate, and transparent, always making sure I understood my options and what to expect. His rates were fair, and he achieved an outstanding result by getting my case dismissed. On top of that, his team is excellent – they are incredibly responsive, typically getting back to me either the same day or the following business day. I’m beyond grateful for Bill’s expertise and the support from his staff. For any veteran seeking legal help in Santa Barbara County, I strongly recommend reaching out to Bill Makler!

Denise Kulawik My friend got hit with a false domestic violence charge and restraining order that was a real problem. I helped her find Chudnovsky Law and Nicole Enyart. I have to say Nicole was always dependable in court and followed through on anything she promised. She was very patient in explaining all the issues and legal protocols. My favorite part was the way she explained how she was going to deal with discrediting the allegation and fight the charge. She has excellent communication skills. We were very relieved when she got the case totally dismissed, especially since we heard the judge is tough to deal with. Everyone at the law firm was great to work with and Nicole is a wonderful attorney.

Andre McIntosh Ive been referring clients to Nicole Enyart and Tsion Chudnovsky for years and I always receive excellent feedback about their representation. They are professional, knowledgeable, and very enjoyable to work with. Ive found them to be some of the best criminal defense attorneys in Santa Barbara. And they have well developed relationships with the courts and staff that are very helpful. From my experience, I recommend Chudnovsky Law to anyone who needs expert legal representation!

Moriah Aasted Jody was the absolute answer to my prayers! I was stuck in a very difficult situation, and had contacted various lawyers seeking help and advice for a circumstance that others seemed unfamiliar with and hopeless about. Jody was very positive, and by far the most confident out of all the lawyers I reached out to. She is extremely knowledgeable and also a genuinely kind lady. She was very clear in her explanation of all that was going on, and she calmly walked me through one of the most painful and confusing times in my life. Her responses to my issues were very quick, and she took the time to help me understand each step of the process, without hesitation. Without her help and advocacy, I have no idea what I would have done. She has been monumental to my health, financial situation, and also served as such a strong support system for me. I am forever grateful for all she has done, and would not ever question going elsewhere if you are in a bind. She is dedicated, well-versed, and top notch in her profession.

Katie Kissee Jody was AMAZING!! I was so stressed and lost when I injured my neck and shoulder at work. Dealing with workers compensation left me in tears and so lost.

Thank you so much Jody for being absolutely AMAZING!!
