J. Demetrios Mellos | San Diego Business Lawyer

My practice has been exclusively referral based, which is that my current or past clients have greatly appreciated the attention I have provided to their particular matter and have told their friends and family about me.

Clients should look for a lawyer that is competent in their particular practice area and can respond to their particular matter in a prompt manner, generally within 24 hours.

Having local knowledge of how particular probate judges operates and what they are looking for dramatically improves the success our office has when seeking an order from the probate court.

When discussing your case during our free phone consultation, you will need to be able to provide What happened, When did it happen, and What are you looking to accomplish.

I have been involved for over a decade with community planning and was Chair of the Uptown Planners, which was the community planning group which covered the areas of Mission Hills, 5 Points, Hillcrest and Banker's Hill. Now that I am retired from the Uptown Planners after 8 years on the Board, my community planning continues as co-Chair of the 5 Points Business & Property Owners Association.
