They took the time to explain each step clearly, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciated how quickly they completed my documents while ensuring everything was done correctly and thoroughly.

We retained Attorney Jisoo Kim, an experienced Maryland real estate and landlord-tenant attorney, to handle the eviction of a holdover tenant in Potomac, MD. Jisoo provided outstanding legal representation — he was professional, highly knowledgeable, and exceptionally thorough in every aspect of the case. His clear communication, timely follow-up, and strong understanding of Maryland landlord-tenant law led to a successful and efficient resolution. We highly recommend Jisoo Kim to anyone seeking a skilled and reliable real estate attorney in Montgomery County or the greater Maryland area.

My husband and I want to thank Pare & Associates and, specifically, Mike Valenti, for the assistance provided during a very difficult time; settling the estate of my daughter who passed away suddenly and unexpectedly at the the age of 29. After my daughter’s estate was settled, Mike assisted us with preparing and providing us with our will’s and other estate planning documents. Mike was always available to us and patiently answered all of our questions. Thank you!

I retained this love for merely to ensure that my brother is doing the right thing as far as handling my mom's estate as he was granted an unsupervised executorship. My $2,000 retainer quickly was burned through and before I knew it I owed another $2,000. Then my attorney left the firm and I remained with my attorney after he left. I I was charged to read a $450 and this is really exorbitant considering that my attorney is merely reminding my brother's attorney of the different deadlines that they have to follow as well as deliverables to the court. There wasn't much activity.. as I was paying down the balance I realized the balance kept going up. They went back and added interest for each month that it where I was over the $2,000 retainer I never received any phone calls or letters that I had a balance due I really just assumed that I was still under the $2,000. Then I get a message from their office after the attorney left saying that I owed a balance. I started paying every week or every other week and when I was halfway through the balance went up. They charged me $90 for 15 minutes call that the attorney allegedly had and that call happened two months prior to the date that they charged me and then they charged me interest on that... Plus they charge me interest on every single month then I got another $90 charge after I told them I would pay half of the balance which I did. I'm very disappointed. I told him I will not pay for a 15-minute phone call that happened 2 months prior plus the interest on that which is absolutely ridiculous. This showed up in a new bill and I have been working with my attorney for 2 months he he has left the law firm 2 months ago and now they charge for 15 minutes phone call Plus a crazy amount of interest.... I sent my message to both the account accountant as well as the owner and neither responded. My only response was another bill with a higher balance. I had just paid $500 which was a little less than half owed and told them I'm not going to pay for this extra $90 charge I should have been built 2 months prior and then this crazy interest that they're adding and that they have been adding they even added that on the $90 charge..... Very disappointed.
I cannot recommend Mike Valenti enough. From our first conversation, he took the time to truly listen to my concerns. He makes you feel like you have someone who will stand up for you and fight for your cause. Mike made me feel heard and understood during what has been a very overwhelming process. His attention to detail was outstanding—nothing was overlooked, and every step was explained thoroughly and thoughtfully.
What impressed me most was the way they responded to my questions. Instead of rushing through answers, they gave clear, well-thought-out explanations that helped me understand my options and feel confident in the decisions I was making. It’s rare to find someone who combines both expertise and compassion so seamlessly. Additionally, the paralegal I dealt with (Tabitha Batson) was absolutely exceptional!

I had contacted Pare & Associates and had contacted Mr. Mike Valenti. He was very prompt in responding to my queries and very knowledgeable regarding my issues. I was very much satisfied with his answers. I am looking forward to do further business with him and would strongly recommend him to my family and friends.

I would not recommend Pare & Associates based on my experience. I felt that I was misrepresented throughout my case and the service I received was both overpriced and poor. My first attorney, Lisa, quit halfway through because she was overwhelmed. She was unprepared for my pendente lite hearing and set my case on a downward trajectory from the start. Another attorney later took over and was more competent, but I felt he did not want to take the case to trial. Because of that, I am now facing the consequences of bad advice. Overall, I did not feel supported, and I regret placing my trust in this firm.

My family law strategy session was very informative and results-driven. I was able to meet with an attorney that informed me of my rights as a parent. We went on to win at my Merits hearing. If you want a winning family law attorney your in the right place!!

Jisoo was absolutely amazing! He made the bankruptcy process super seamless and always answered any questions I had. In the beginning of the process I was extremely anxious and had no idea what I was up against but he reassured me of everything and gave me an exact rundown of what things would look like to better prepare me. Anytime I emailed him he responded with haste and his responses were always thoughtful but detailed. I would recommend him a thousand times over! Thank you Jisoo for my fresh start :)

This is the second time our family has hired an attorney from Pare & Associates and we are just as satisfied as the first time. This time our attorney was Evan Marmie who handled our situation (a messy divorce) with extreme competence, compassion, aggression (when needed) and tact. I can't recommend Mr. Marmie highly enough. If you need legal representation in a field in which Mr. Marmie practices you can't do better.
