If you are in a position to need this service, don't hesitate to go with MAC Services Group and work with Shazi. I was absolutely dreading this process, and Shazi actually made it a very painless process for everyone involved.
We considered our other options: 1) Lawyers (WAY TOO EXPENSIVE), 2) Doing the paperwork ourselves (WAY TOO CONFUSING), and decided to go with 3) a mediator.
It wasn't a hard decision given her glowing reviews, and only once you actually go through the process can you truly appreciate Shazi's diligence and attention to detail to get everything in order in a smooth, prompt, and thorough manner. I can't imagine having to wade through all the various parts of this without the help of an expert like Shazi.
Shazi led us through each step with tremendous patience, explaining every detail and answering every question thoroughly. At no point did she rush the process and I felt that all of her guidance was truly neutral in terms of helping us make decisions.
I hope I won't need to use her service again, but if I do, I'd definitely work with her again.

I will keep this review short and sweet.
My experience with MAC Services Group was a pleasant one (considering the circumstances) and extremely professional.
My now ex-husband and I decided that we wanted to use a mediator so that we could end everything as amicably as possible.From the moment we met with Shazi to the very last email I received from her, she has been phenomenal.
Her demeanor and energy is very calming and gentle which I believe made a big difference. She can almost pass for a couples counselor.
Shazi is extremely organized (which I loved), kept us abreast of everything that was happening with the process in a timely manner every step of the way, and her communication skills were exceptional. She also answered all of our redundant and silly questions with lightning speed.
She went above and beyond what I expected from a mediator.If you know that you want to part ways in a civilized manner and want someone who is professional, compassionate and kind to help you with the process, give Shazi a chance. You won't be disappointment.

Shazi was great -- very helpful and patient with us. She responded quickly and clearly to any questions we had, and facilitated the process very well. I appreciated knowing that I could reach out at any time to have a question answered as it can be an overwhelming experience without someone like Shazi.

Working with Shazi and MAC Services Group has been an extremely positive experience. My previous lawyer was unreliable, and lacked the knowledge needed in my case. Shazi stepped in, and took charge of my case accomplishing all necessary steps to get back on track. I sought her out based on her internet ratings. I knew within a few minutes of speaking with her, she was who I wanted. She was outstanding. Throughout the process, I never had to reach out to her for updates. She kept me informed at all times keeping me in the know. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a reliable, take-charge attorney. She delivered everything she commited to, and exceeded my expectations. She made me feel like my case was her priority. I'm very happy I found her.

I am very pleased with the services MAC Services Group provided. The attorney that assisted myself and ex-husband through our divorce process was Shazi. She was very professional, responsive and helpful through it all. From the initial consultation to the very last part of the process, Shazi did an excellent job at answering our questions and addressing our concerns. Given that this is also an emotional process, having someone help you and guide you through the paperwork and court filings is essential and Shazi was great and I highly recommend her.
MAC Services and Shazi Rastegar, Esq. in particular made the daunting divorce process as painless as it can be by guiding me and the other guy through each step with care, balance and clear direction. The guidance was immeasurable for us for whom our assets and bank accounts did not allow for the full on lawyer route. I highly recommend their services!
Kelly Marie Martin,
It's hard to find a sincere attorney who is not just in it for the money!
But Shazi is one of them and you should definitely call her if you want to work with someone who has a heart and soul and is really driven to do great work for her clients. She is a very professional and ethical team player and looks past the superficial symptoms to get at the core of the matters brought to her...she will fix it, and you won't regret trusting her!
My husband and I met with Shazi and right away felt she was the perfect fit for us. She guided us and kept us updated through the entire process. Her fees are fair and reasonable. It was great working with Shazi... I have absolutely no regrets, and highly recommend her.
Do yourself a favor, don't let anger guide you. Work with each other, along with Shazi. You'll save thousands of dollars by being cordial with one another while going through the process, and you may even save your credit.
Also, watch the Divorce documentary on Netflix so you can see how the attorneys and judges are all in it together. It's ugly. Don't be a victim.
I found Shazi on the internet, and saw she had excellent reviews. I trust reviews, but felt it was important I speak with her to determine whether I could work with her, or not. She was impressive by her professionalism, and knowledge. She responded to my inquiry in a timely manner. I felt immediate comfortable as she listened to me, made recommendations, and provided me comfort in the process. Her work ethic and dedication to me as a client was phenomenal. She exceeded my expectations with deadlines by completing requirements prior to dates anticipated. She kept me informed on a regular basis as to any progress in the process, and prepared me in advance for next steps. I had a bad experience with my previous lawyer which set my divorce back one year. Shazi took the case over, and took charge immediately. I would recommend Shazi and MAC Services Group to anyone. The best experience I could have had. Glad I found her.
Massimiliano,
Our mediator was able to help my ex and I complete a long, drawn-out, and contentious divorce process without the need to go to court to get the divorce done. Which is really a minor miracle. Our mediator was always a calming influence, ultimately helping us to reach a compromise solution. I am very appreciative of the help that we received, and the pricing plans we were offered.
Christopher Hennes,
5 stars for every aspect of my experience with Mac. I had a pleasure working with Shazi Rastegar at Mac Services Group on my divorce last year. Shazi helped me through very difficult times and made my divorce procedure straight forward, fast and successful. There were no issues with filings, court forms or any pitfalls throughout the process. It was a very smooth and painless process overall considering how difficult divorce situations are.
They provide services kind of ala carte style whereby if you prudent enough person you can do parts by yourself and save costs or delegate the whole process to them and it is still much much cheaper than some of the quotes I have received. From customer service perspective they are available after hours and may drive to your place of residence to accomplish certain steps. By all means they work with you and keep you updated on each deadline and step. I am very happy I did it through Mac and would highly suggest their services.
Kateryna Prykhodko,
Shazi was the best. They took care of all the paperwork and really helped us reach an amicable split. I am so glad we opted for mediation and for MAC Services. They saved us time, money, and heartache. Thank you Shazi.

Kia Zokaei,
I needed to talk to someone about filing for divorce and found MAC on google. I'm glad I met with an attorney before filing because there were a lot of steps and things I needed to do that I didn't know about. I liked having someone on my side, and I'm glad I came here. They were affordable and knowledgable about the divorce laws.
Jessica Perez,
As crappy as our overall divorce was, the service was worth it. We reached a settlement so we didn't have to go back to court.
Jason F,
A great attorney and divorce mediator who made our divorce a lot less stressful.
Sandy W.,
Shazi and MAC Services Group were a invaluable help for me and my husband as we went through our divorce. We are lucky that we are remaining friends and able to use a mediation service. Shazi was very professional, informative and timely but never pushed when we figured things out at our own pace. I would highly recommend MAC Services Group for any legal counsel you may need.
Sarena K.,
Getting a divorce is stressful and complicated, no matter how well you're getting along with your spouse. Shazi was a consumate professional at every step of the way. She was clear and concise in her communications, she resopnded to questions quickly and comprehensivly, and she kept us updated at every step of the process. I highly recomend Shazi & MAC Services Group!
Dennis G.,
Divorce is not an easy process, but Shazi was incredibly understanding, helpful, efficient, and professional throughout the entire process. I couldn't recommend her and MAC Services more highly.
Eric K.,
Getting a divorce is never a good experience even if both parties are compliant. The system is set up to make the process so confusing and convoluted. Working with Shazi was a life saver for me. She is smart, diligent, professional, with a genuine and positive demeanor that helped eliminate a lot of the stress. I must have asked her 100 questions and she willingly walked me through all my concerns. Shazi was the mediator for both myself and my ex-husband and she was very objective and reassuring to both of us by clearly giving us all the options. I am so grateful for you Shazi! Thank you!
