Also, and this was a tough one to understand, Seema was appointed to represent our teen, not us. We we were new to the juvenile justice system and had lots of questions as you might imagine. But Seema wasn't there to answer our questions or make us feel good about the process. As the case progressed beyond preliminary hearings, Seema did take the time to explain what was happening, how we could help our daughter and how she could help herself.
In short, Seema did an excellent job representing our daughter, taught her some serious lessons along the way and negotiated a way out of our juvenile justice system nightmare. I highly recommend her legal services.
This Indian woman is rude. She won't help you as a court appointed attorney. Do not trust this woman. If the court appointed her to you as an court appointed attorney please ask for someone else
Unfortunately, had to use Seema's services again for a traffic citation. Very courteous and friendly like before. Responsive to emails and once again got my citation down to a non-moving violation. Her professionalism and communication skills are great and especially during these stressing times, it is very comforting to know that you have someone who is responsive and willing to speak to you. I hope I have to never use her again but if something comes up, Seema will be my first call. Thank you!

With many options for court representation, I would highly recommend the Law Offices of Seema Ruchandani. She has been the second lawyer I have dealt with in terms of traffic citations and I can say confidently that she is well versed in the law and will give you the best outcome. When I first received the ticket, I reached out and set up a meeting with her to discuss our game plan. She met with me in the courthouse's cafe area and she laid out the plan of attack. She handled the entire ticket and on the day of my court case, she worked out a deal to get it completely dismissed! All I had to do was take an online driving course (~$25) and pay the court costs assessed by the court. She was responsive both via email and through the phone. If unfortunately I receive another ticket, her office will be my first call.
Note: ignore the negative reviews pls, these are misleading.
Update: In response to Ms. Ruchandani's inaccurate response to my rating. I absolutely did not attempt to put my daughter ahead of your other clients' needs. In my communication to you I specified that you may not yet have been aware of your assignment. Aside from your incredibly rude and unprofessional behavior, what you fail to mention is how you very explicitly told me that you would not submit the bond for the next day, given the strict and unyielding nature of the judge scheduled to be on the bench and that you would advise my daughter to wait a day before being bonded. Despite my 19 year old daughter having NO priors you insensitively declared that she was "technically an adult and could find her own way home", when I told you that I would not be available to pick her up on Friday. Despite my internal objections I subsequently communicated to my daughter your recommendation and she agreed to the process; even though that would mean being held for over 48hrs with no bond hearing. Then you failed to adequately notify either of us that you would proceed with the bond hearing the next day; choosing to email me at 6:25am the morning of a 9:30am hearing when I live 45 minutes away. Providing that you knew no later than 3:00pm the day prior that you had submitted the hearing request and you had my phone number for direct contact, your method of communication narrowly caused me to miss that hearing. I wholeheartedly stand by my initial review and assert that the public take head and do their research prior to securing you as counsel.
