Testimonials

Dear Phil:

I want to personally thank you for your assistance in obtaining a general contractors license for my company.  From the beginning, I was impressed with your firm understanding of the licensing process and your detailed follow-though. My previous experience with similar companies was less than satisfactory, thus I was apprehensive about utilizing another licensing service.

I am happy to say that any trepidation I might have felt was quickly replaced with confidence and the secure belief that a true professional was handling my application. You delivered on your promise, and that speaks volumes.  Clearly, you understand all of the fine nuances in obtaining professional licenses, in addition to recognizing the importance of providing first-rate customer service. Not only did you supply me with regular, timely status updates, you also made it a point to use proactive measures to ensure any issues were swiftly and successfully resolved. I was always self-assured that you were committed to this process, and would not be satisfied until such time as we received our contractor’s license.

Having worked with other ineffective, unprofessional, unknowledgeable licensing companies, I can honestly assert that you are the real deal. It is my pleasure to recommend your services to any individual, or company, that is applying for a professional license or certification. Your outstanding service exceeded any expectations I might have had from the start.

Again, I thank you for your superior, professional support and will not hesitate to contact you with any future licensing needs.

Sincerely,
Erik D. Hess

I just passed my C-39 exam thanks to the study material from contractors license service the material was very similar to the state exam and the service is great. you can get answers to any of the questions you have involving the laws on becoming a contractor in california and plus other companies which i used before had the same study material and was much more expensive so i highly recommend this business for all your needs in becoming a contractor. John Baker on 05/02/2010

Phil was great! He answered ALL of my questions. My cousin did his own application and paperwork, he had to redo it three times and it took him over a year to get his license. I used Phil and got mine in 4 months wothout any hiccups! Highly recommend!Rob on 04/28/2010

Wow, did our license turn out to be complicated… My first license was so much easier to procure. I am grateful to have had your assistance along the way; just to have some idea what to expect went a long way towards our comfort. Thanks again for all your efforts, especially all your after business hours returned calls. I certainly would be happy to recommend your services. Bill Avant on 03/31/2010

Phil at CLS is awesome! All calls answered or returned within 5 minutes. He followed through with everything he said. Hand walks your License app into the state and has resources far reaching that helped us save time and money. Our requests were numerous and often needy and Phil was there for us all the way. I will use him again and highly recommend him to solve your Lic. challenges. Russell Stone on 03/31/2010

I am very pleased with the help that Contractors License Service provided me. Phil did an outstanding job with my license application process- everything was done efficiently and professionally and my questions were always answered in a timely manner. I also bought the study guides for The Law & Business and the C-27 exams, and I easily passed both tests without issue. I would recommend Contractors License Service to anyone preparing their license application or studying for the exams. Phil provides the guidance and expertise to ensure you that you'll get that license sooner than you think!Brian M on 03/09/2010

Thanks Phil. The support you provided me with my
C-20 HVAC was fantastic. After going through California Contractors License School and getting burned three times with their bogus crash course & telling me to try to memorize 400 questions, I came to you. Your materials were just what I needed to get my C-20. I studied the materials for 10 hrs, took the test and passed with flying colors. I cant thank you enough for sending the stuff so quick. I will be referring everyone I know that is getting their license to go to you. Kevin P.


Thanks again Phil. It was great working with you.
The study guides that you endorse are so good it's not even funny! There were only a few questions on either test that I was clueless on- the rest I had either seen before (verbatim) or were similar in context to others I had studied. Overall, I am very pleased with all of your help. Hopefully I will get some referrals coming your way! Take care, Brian M.

Contractor’s License Service provides valuable service at a reasonable price.  They were able to provide insights as to the most common application mistakes and help us get to the correct personnel within the CSLB when we had questions.  This saved us a lot of time and frustration; we know, because we went through the application process several years ago for another legal entity and the process didn’t go as well as when we had the assistance of Contractor’s License Service.

I want to thank you for the assistance with the process. I couldn't have done it without you. The study materials were great - passed both tests, no problem. Pat B.

I passed both of my exams today. Law and General B. The study materials were a huge help. I thought I was good to go without them but after taking the test I realized I wouldn't have been. I learned quite a bit especially in regard to the law portion. Thanks again for getting these to me so quickly and at the last minute.  I will definitely be refering some business your way. Darin F.

After researching and looking into applying for my General B Contractors License, I found the study materials listed on the CSLB website were not only multiple complicated books but they were expenseive, too.  I did some research and found Phil's website.  Not only did Phil help me with my application but he also offered study materials, and both at a reasonable fee.  The study materials were very easy to follow and gave me the confidence going into the test.  My application was approved and I passed both exams; Law and General B, on the first try.  I recommend Phil's application assistance and study program to anyone who is going to get a contractors license. Eddie W.

Aced them both in a total of 2 hrs...the study material was great and your help was invaluable...thanks

Thanks for all your help in answering my questions before I purchased your study materials. I passed both tests today and wanted to let you know your materials were invaluable in my test preparations effort. Specifically the addendum's at the end of the law and trade books, there were at least 20 questions from each on my tests today.

I just wanted to give License Guru some much needed THANKS! I passed both my Law/Business and "B" test this morning. I used only the study materials that he recommended and couldn't have asked for more. Thanks for being a great resource!

I would simply like to let everyone know about my phenomenal experience with License Guru, Phil Cocciante. I was looking for assistance on my application for Original Contractor's License and after searching the internet (google) for answers I finally came upon contractorlicenseservice.com. After visiting his site I was still a little skeptical, then found his postings at ContractorTalk.com. After reading through many of them I was confident he was the man with the answers. After I emailed him at approx 6PM PST he emailed me back at 930PM PST. That's what I call service! I wasn't expecting an answer 'til the next day or even the next, let alone from the man himself. He answered every last question I had and gave me exactly what I was looking for, knowledge and experience. All that at an unheard of speed. Worth every penny. I'll definitely be referring him to friends and working with him again. Jon W.

Thank you for handling my C-10 License Application in such an efficient manner. You have been a pleasure to work with.  Tim T.
