| 129187 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Been in front of this judge many times. Most times I do well because I am prepared. Occasionally do not do well, probably because my facts were bad. He always gives me a fair shot. I don't always agree with him, but I know he ...Read More | 10/14/2024 04:21 PM | Contact reviewer |

| 69879 | Litigant | No Rating | Doesn't read the briefs and doesn't care. Picks a winner and a loser day one and makes arbitrary rulings accordingly. Rules one way orally and reverses in writing. Issues vague rulings so he can reinterpret later. Never made a ten...Read More | 06/02/2019 12:44 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 69276 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I don't know what these other raters are smoking. I spent 12 hours over 2 days in a settlement conference with this judge and he helped us reach a complex resolution that was a win for both sides. He knew the law, the facts, and ...Read More | 05/20/2019 02:18 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 69019 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | This judge is lazy and admits he cannot read everything. Where do we get these folks? Bad draw and cannot be educated. | 05/13/2019 04:03 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 57758 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Has made ruling before hearing every time. Predetermined for large bank's interest, is completely blind to what he does not want to see. Accepts obvious fraud, goes beyond rule of law to facilitate Bank's wishes. | 07/12/2018 03:14 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 56828 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Rule of law does not matter, never reads the filings and says so, feels for credibility and believes every lie told by opposing nasty attorney even after you prove it!

| 48858 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Highly biased judge that told me (attorney) that he can't be expected to read any of the filings. Refused to hear argument at a hearing.

| 45885 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Maas is just not willing to take the time to dig into the case in order to make a correct decision.

| 34167 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | Horrible Judge. Shoots from the hip and is in with the wealthier litigant. Hob nobs with lawyers that he knows to the determent of others. Does not study cases. | 04/21/2015 01:54 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 33447 | Other | No Rating | How dare you make a decision on the golf course in Escondido. The city voted NOT to allow additional housing on that property. We are in a drought, try to get onto 15 from 78, and listen to your neighbors, or maybe NOT your neigh...Read More | 03/14/2015 08:11 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 32407 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I hope this well positioned judge gets removed from his unopposed position before he makes a wrong decision in a life and death case like in my case.

| 8896 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I only appeared once before him. Excellent demeanor and sharp, but didn't seem particularly well-prepared, although very conversant with the applicable law, and appeared very practical, get-down-to the-issues type. | 09/16/2010 12:27 PM | Contact reviewer |
