CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

REAL REVIEWS

I recommend Attorney Claire Melehani, whose efforts were immediate, determined, analytical, well considered, and constant. Throughout her personal and team efforts, Claire worked hard to build a strong, strategic, and effective case to ensure a positive resolution to an unfolding disruptive and stressful situation. Much appreciation and gratitude.

We worked with Claire and Steven on a living trust issue that we had, and were very impressed with their professionalism and patience in handling everything. Claire was highly recommended from another firm we had reached out to, and we certainly understand why. The situation we were dealing with was complicated, but both Claire and Steven were quick to get all the facts and wonderful in helping us get a clear game plan figured out. It is reassuring to know that we can always reach out to them for additional help if needed.

Steven’s legal expertise and sophistication were tremendous in resolving key issues in my case. Most important of all, Steven’s ability to bring my case to settlement with eloquent presentation while keeping my focus on the bigger picture was most impressive to me. If ever needed, I would hire Steven for his services in a heartbeat.

- Benjamin

I have never spoken to a lawyer before and was very nervous with my situation going on. Claire made me feel comfortable and welcomed. I’m pregnant and just very vulnerable right now she made sure I knew my rights and made sure I was safe. I have already recommended her to my family and friends ! I can’t express how grateful I am to have her as my lawyer.

- Jessie

Claire was nothing short of incredible with how she represented me and my interests. She was always available, super prompt, organized, tactful, and strategic throughout the entire process. Claire was also very empathetic and practical which was super important at various times throughout my case and trial. Ultimately, Claire won me a large settlement and won my case. I would highly and confidently recommend Ms. Melehani to anyone and I would absolutely hire her again!

- Pete

I hired this amazing attorney named Claire Melehani because my father got dementia and made his only daughter power of attorney but family members wanted somebody else to be the power of attorney {...} I was able to keep power of attorney and work all the problems out with the rest of the family and for that, I am forever, grateful for her advice and her willingness to help me keep my position as the matriarch of this family and for that, I will always be thankful.

- Rachele

Prior to a salary negotiation, I engaged Claire to gain insight on potential leverage. Claire reviewed the organizational documents that had bearing on the employment role, and drew other pertinent details from me in conversation. With Claire's help I was able to craft a successful negotiation strategy and achieve my compensation goals.

- David

Claire was on my legal team for my divorce that started in 2019. She is fantastic. Claire was extremely responsive, articulate and caring. She made a stressful and combative situation tolerable. Claire always had a positive attitude. I have full confidence that Claire has a in-depth knowledge of the law as it related to my case. I definitely recommend Claire.

Excellent Attorney, Amazing Human Being. I had the pleasure of being represented by Mrs. Melehani during a very dark and extremely litigious phase of my custody case. I've been dealing with a 6-year custody battle for my daughter, had a two-week trial, experts, custody evaluations....you name it. Claire went above and beyond to ensure no detail was missed in my very laborious and exhaustive case. Further, her candor was always professional and extremely empathetic which went a long way to making me feel I was in good hands. 

- Raffaello

Claire and Steven are not only incredibly knowledgeable but very supportive. They won't simply recommend a course of action that will cost the most money, but actually consider the issues and advise you on what's best for YOU. I feel very fortunate I was able to work with them for a difficult issue!

- Jordan



I had a great experience working with Steven and his firm. We weren't happy with our prior attorneys and switched to Steven and never looked back. Not only was he able to pick up our case and understand it quickly, his legal strategies and recommendations were thoughtful and different from the other attorneys we met. He kept me informed with timely updates as soon as new information came in, which was critical and made a big difference. His legal strategies were clear, well thought out, and always explained in a way that was easy to understand. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly and thoroughly. Highly recommend this firm for anyone needing reliable and responsive legal representation.

Here's a toast to the new law office in downtown Saratoga across from Wildwood Park on 4th Street! Steven McLellan and Claire Melehani have joined forces to create the McLellan Law Group, LLP, a firm providing clear and concise assistance while making their clients feel completely at ease.


Their advice to us worked like a charm by their eliminating legalese from our discussion; for my husband and me, they provided the best experience with lawyers we've ever had! Our Trust is now on its way to completion, and we remain so thankful for their advice!

- Judith Sutton



I consulted with Steve regarding a probate issue and he was incredibly helpful in navigating the issues. I’ve spoken with a number of attorneys in my line of work and especially in probate, it can be challenging to find someone who can fully understand your concerns and help with identifying the right plan.


He was efficient and easy to communicate with and I would recommend him to anyone I know dealing with probate concerns.

I've worked with McLellan Law Group on several cases over the years.


Steven and Claire are very responsive and diligent attorneys who work together to achieve the client's goals. I can hardly wait for the next case we work on together.
