Our Reviews

Mr. Ayaz is not only a fantastic lawyer but also a genuine great person. He went out of his way to help me through my situation, alleviate my worrying and get everything back on track for me. His legal staff are all fantastic, friendly, reliable and easy to work with. To put it simply the man is an expert in his field and it is not up for debate. I could not be more happy with the entire experience. From meeting him, to follow ups to the final outcome the whole thing was a home run.

I had a great experience with Blake and Ayaz Law Office. Mike and his team, Kathrina, Brenda, Miranda and Jen were always friendly, polite, and professional throughout the entire process. They handled my case efficiently and kept me well-informed every step of the way. Even though I live abroad, our communication was smooth and clear, which made everything much less stressful. I truly appreciate their help and would definitely recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance in alcoholic beverage compliance, licenses and permits. Thank you!

So thankful for Mr. Ayaz. He ended up giving us free legal advice over the phone without taking our case. His advice got us a favorable outcome in regards to our violation. I highly recommend anyone to consult with Mr. Ayaz if they run into any troubles with the ABC. The office was able to look at my violation and give advice within an hour of my call. Great experience!

Thank You Mr. Ayaz !!! Mike and his staff are professional, prompt, and were extremely helpful through a very difficult situation with the ABC. Never once did I call the office with a question or concern about the case and not have someone either answer or get back to me immediately. A great firm and a great staff willing to put in the work, resulted in a great outcome. Thanks again to this team for all of their hard work and commitment. True professionals from start to finish.

Blake and Ayaz delivered exceptional legal service with the highest level of professionalism, precision, and results. I engaged their firm to assist with a complex liquor license transfer, and they handled every detail with spectacular skill. From navigating regulatory hurdles to managing tight deadlines, their expertise was evident at every step. What could have been a stressful, bureaucratic process became seamless thanks to their strategic approach and clear communication. I couldn’t be more impressed with the outcome or more grateful for their guidance. I highly recommend Blake and Ayaz to anyone in need of top-tier legal representation.

Mike Ayaz is an exceptional attorney—thoughtful, charismatic, and incredibly pragmatic. He provided invaluable guidance when we found ourselves in a tough spot with a property we had booked for our upcoming wedding, navigating some murky legal terrain with clarity and care. Mike went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for his support during a stressful moment. Highly recommend.

Mike Ayaz proved to be an invaluable asset as we wended our way through the ABC labyrinth. Straight talk, easy to understand and complete answers were our experience with Mike. Strong recommendation!

I hired Mr. Ayaz when I purchased a California Business with a Liquor License. I needed assistance understanding the transfer process. Mr Ayaz and his team were able to help me get the transfer completed and in operating order. I wanted to do it right and they were able to help me do just that! Would highly recommend their office for any type of liquor law assistance, as that is what I can speak to. I appreciated their knowledge and expertise in the matters I need help with most.

I had the pleasure of working with Michael Ayaz on a recent matter. He was representing us in connection with an appeal from a neighbor. I found him to be an excellent subject matter expert. He provided clear guidance. He was a thorough communicator. I’ve had different attorneys represent me for different business matters and so I think he would be a good representative for an experienced client. His thoroughness with communication also causes me to think he would be a good attorney for a less experienced client who might be dealing with a complex or serious legal matter for the first time. Overall, excellent experience and good value.

Mike Ayaz of Blake and Ayaz is the lawyer you want in your corner. He represented me in a case brought on by ABC. It was already in a default judgment against me because ABC never properly notified me that there was a case against my establishment. Mike was able to get the default judgment thrown out and allowed me to start anew. The outcome was more than expected. I like that he did not sugarcoat anything. He was honest about my chances and the possible outcome from the beginning. Oh, and he took my call from day one. The other law firm took my name and said they would call back the following week. Mike always returns your phone calls and makes you feel like you’re never alone and that you have the best lawyer representing you. He is a bull dog and that’s what you need when dealing with ABC. I will also add that he took the time to know my wife and I personally and that he listens. I will forever be grateful for that. Lastly I will say that I so admire his quality of work that I have hired him for more legal work. Thank you Mike! 🍻

Mike and his firm fought hard for my best interests, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. Their attention to detail, dedication, and genuine concern for my case made all the difference.

Contacting Mike Ayaz was singlehandedly the best decision I’ve made. We were in the process of acquiring a liquor license in our county and what proceeded was a jumbled mess. In our first conversation, Mike assured us that he had extensive knowledge in our matter and told us he would get the situation cleared up and taken care of within the month. Fast forward a few weeks later and a whole lot of legal paperwork with ABC and we were well on our way to finally acquiring our liquor license for our new business. Without his expertise and guidance, we wouldn’t have been able to make this a possibility. Now that all the paperwork is done and the escrow settled we can certainly say, if you have any questions on any legal matters regarding ABC and liquor licenses then you must look no further than to contact Mike Ayaz. Professional, Detailed, Quick and to the point. He will guide you on to the right path and ensure you reach your destination happily. Thank you very much once again, Mike!

He is so, so knowledgeable in his field and made sure we were in the loop and understood the entire process we had to go through. We ultimately got what we wanted and have Mike and the entire Blake & Ayaz team to thank for that! We appreciate you!

I consulted Mr. Mike Ayaz for a real estate issue, he was prompt, took our call on the first day we reached out, he followed through, he had immense knowledge of the subject matter, and really knew the laws well. When I thought I was in a bad spot, he ensured me that I had options. Note to anyone reading this, get a real estate lawyer before considering purchase or lease of any property. It’s just the right thing to do.

I researched to find the right people to help me get a liquor license transferred to a new location. Mike from the start helped every step of the way, he is so eloquent with deal making.

The years of knowledge you receive with this firm is Hands down worth every dollar. If you have issues with your liquor license call these guys immediately.
