The Rad Firm, APC

I spoke with Monique over the phone and she was friendly and patient in providing guidance for my specific situation with my landlord. She took my call the first time I reached out to her firm. Her competency is very clear and she made me feel respected. I highly recommend her.

I spoke with Monique today, and she could not have been more helpful. I will certainly be using her services in the future.

It was such a pleasure working with Monique and Alia. They were extremely professional, efficient and informative! I cannot say enough great things about The Rad Firm, they kept me informed every step of the way during my lawsuit. They were on top of the entire process and very detail orientated. They value their clients and work around the clock to make sure the process is pleasent.
I highly recommend The Rad Firm for anyone seeking a lawyer.

I’m super grateful for finding Alia Daniels in October 2014. She was diligent and kept me informed throughout the process of my lawsuit. Hightly recommend.

I recently contacted the Rad Firm and spoke to Monique. I was looking for direction regarding a landlord tenant dispute. Monique was friendly, helpful, informative, and understanding. She provided me with a great deal of information to address my needs. I will definitely use this firm for future legal needs.

We had resident that was a hoarder, and had bedbugs and roaches that started to spread.
Monique handled the eviction case very professionally and quickly. The Three Days Notice that she drafted was detailed, very effective, and delivered timely, worked like magic.
We were delighted with the results.

I used the rad firm for some real estate transactions. She built my LLC and some other good stuff. She is professional and supportive. She gave me genuine advice that other lawyers would charge lots of money for. Thanks for everything. You rock

Monique was wonderful to work with. We had an issue getting our security deposit back and, before I filed in small claims court, I wanted to make sure I had a case. She met with me for a quick consultation just to answer some questions I had about landlord/​tenant law and gave me some great advice. Before we could file, our former landlord’s lawyer called us and refused to speak to us but wanted to speak to the attorney we consulted. My husband, not knowing what to say, gave him her name. He proceeded to call her and scream at her for no reason. Small claims court does not deal with lawyers so he should not have been involved. I was very, very appreciative of her taking his phone call and then immediately calling me to let me know what happened. I would highly recommend her services and plan on using her in the future if the situation calls for it.

Absolutely love working with the Rad Firm. Both Monique and Alia are extremely helpful as well as friendly.
They answered all questions that I had and handled my cases with diligence and urgency.
I would recommend The Rad Firm to anyone who is looking for thoughtful, intelligent and hardworking legal help.

Monique is incredibly responsive whenever I have a an issue that needs attention. She is direct, which is one thing I particularly value when it comes to lawyers. I have dealt with so many other lawyers that never give you a straight answer –it’s grating — but I always leave a conversation with The Rad Firm knowing exactly what my options are. I don’t know what I would have done without her expertise in real estate — she helped me understand 1031 exchanges — and her creative problem solving.

Monique is honest and fair and dedicated. She has always been totally upfront with me on whatever issue I am discussing with her and given me her honest opinion on whether my case has merit.
With some attorneys, you end up wondering about their ethics, but I feel really comfortable in working with Monique and The Rad Firm.

This is simply the WORST! What a waste of money and just an all around horrible experience. I had a landlord issue and needed a letter sent. After an a friend attorney suggested I go with constructive eviction, I found this firm on Unilocal and based on the reviews I made an appointment and met with Monique. First, she never gave me the constructive eviction option when I explained my case, and only when I suggested it, that she confirmed it to be my best option. It was a red flag there but I figured I just needed a letter, how bad can it be?!
I met her in her old warehouse office, and once we agreed on the price, she asked me at least 4 TIMES!!! if my check was good or is it going to bounce!!!
I am not sure if I looked like someone who’s checks bounce, or if I was being stereotyped but I happen to be quite responsible and I simply dont write bad check. It was bizarre, insulting, and not a great way to start any relationship but I sucked it up. After all, I just need a letter.
I was given a date for the letter to be sent (2 days) as it was time sensitive and the building was being sold. A week later I request an update and I get a letter that simply has facts that I NEVER mentioned. She amended it, poorly, and sent it without my final approval. I requested a copy of the sent version, it is sent to me with the original date that was never delivered? It was shady and intelligence insulting. I would have most certainly escalated the matter and filed a complaint with the Bar but I’m gonna write it off to karma.
To add insult to injury, she replies to me on a condescending tone, «You said“type of argumentative manner. I said a lot of things but what a selective memory that worked against the client. There was no leverage as we discussed. The letter was weak, late, and of course I had 0 results. it was simply a waste of time, nerve, and $$$
I pity the future of the law practice in this country. You pay them to insult you and get you nothing. True shame as this is the new generation of attorneys.

They have no idea what they are doing… fresh out of college.
Made a huge mess of my case.

I called to get some info on my situation with my current landlord, but Monique was unavailable. She promptly returned my call and patiently answered all of my questions and was extremely helpful. She was also the only attorney out of nearly ten that I called, that was willing to talk to me over the phone, without charging me hundreds of dollars for a consultation. She was wonderful, and very insightful! I was more than satisfied!

After an unpleasant exchange with my former property manager, I realized that he did not have my best interest at heart when trying to bully me into staying in an unpleasant living situation. The only thing to do was to know my rights.
After consulting Unilocal,I found Monique. I called her office, was put on a brief hold and instantly Monique was on the phone. I wasn’t asked to make an appointment, for money, or anything else. She simply lent an ear while I gave her the speediest version of my story and asked her if what was happening to me was legal. She gave me her opinion on the matter to the best of her ability, without seeing my current lease.
While it wasn’t formal advice (because of the limited scope she had) it empowered me ton confidently challenge my landlords manipulative tactics.
In the end, I walked away from that situation and have moved on. And in the event that the new people I rent from aren’t up to snuff, I know who to call!

I have a problem with my landlord who is trying to evict me from my apartment because the room I am in is an illegal construction. I called Monique, was connected to her right away and she told me that I do not need an attorney as I was a qualified tenant and should go to LAHD. who would protect me from him. She looked up my case, spent a long time explaining my rights and told me that she would be happy to protect me if I made a deal with the landlord to leave voluntarily.
I cannot say how much she put my mind at rest and would recommend her to any tenant who is having problems with their landlord.
Thank-​you Monique

Monique is awesome! She helped me solve a very difficult and complicated tenant situation that no other lawyer I contacted wanted to handle (they all said it would be too hard to solve and would cost me too much money). Monique not only took on the case but she solved it with a better outcome that anyone could have predicted. She went above and beyond the call of duty to help us. She was easily reachable and very creative in her interactions with a painfully difficult/​/​irrational tenant. I would use her again though I hope I don’t have to because I hope to only have dream tenants from here on out.

Alia is a brilliant employment attorney (though I heard she is branching into other fields as well). We work too hard for our money and sometimes get taken advantage of, hence where she comes in. She goes above and beyond to take care of her clients… and she’s easy on the eyes too! No one more personable and not afraid to fight for us.

Monique was extremely empathetic and helpful when my boyfriend and I were forced out of our apartment for potentially discriminatory reasons. She gave me great advice, showed that she cares about tenants’ rights as well as landlords’ rights, and helped me through a tough time. If I continue to have issues with my former landlord (security deposit, etc.), I will certainly be retaining Monique’s services.

I’m honored to be the first client to write a review for Monique Rad. We had a tenant that wasn’t paying rent and Monique helped us through the process. That you can talk to an attorney, helps with these cases. In our situation, our tenant called Monique and she was frank with them what would happen if they didn’t move. They were out within two weeks! She knows her stuff and is a landlord herself, so has much experience in this arena. It’s not an easy process and the wheels of justice work very slowly. Her rates are very fair and she was available by email, text and phone.
