Atty TENENBAUM is one human being sent by GOD to help my husband cleared his misdemeanor case. Upon contacting Atty Tenenbaum he immediately get all the information of the situation and express his expertise on the case. We felt very confident on him because his personality and professionalism have been so comforting for us. Our impression of him is he's very down to earth person, approachable and a lawyer we can trust. Atty Tenenbaum has closed my husband case without any jail time and/or community service. He's been a blessing to our situation and very grateful for him. Thank you and GOD bless, BL
I would like to highly recommend Mr. Tenenbaum to anyone who might have gotten themselves into some trouble. Over the course of my case he was very informative and helpful with any questions I had. At times I was nervous but he was always very reassuring. I am very pleased with how Mr. Tenenbaum handled my case and I could not have hope for a better outcome. I would not hesitate to hire him again!
Finding and hiring Mr. Tenenbaum was the smartest move ever! He went to bat for us, he left no stone unturned, and gave straight and honest answers to our questions. I am so glad that I trusted my instincts and hire Mr. Tenenbaum. He fought for my son’s justice! {para}I cannot express the gratitude and joy in my heart for the professional results we received. When you are dealing with the courts -- don't take any chances -- call the right attorney Jeffrey Tenenbaum!!
Jeff is an excellent attorney. It can sometimes take a few days to hear from him as he is quite busy; however, if the matter is urgent he can be readily reached via his personal cell phone.
needs improvement. only exploits you for money and manipulates your case to build his relationships with his formerly opposing attorneys by outsourcing your case to formerly opposing attorneys. has a reputation in small-town Merced by long-time residents of being lazy and unreliable.
Reviews
These client and peer reviews are from the Martindale-Avvo Legal Network.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
