Ann is fantastic in every regard. Her professional standing and reputation are elite. She is very genuine, easy to work with, and is sensitive to goals and efficiencies ($) in getting there.

It will be hard to fully capture how much I valued Ann's legal work . . . so simply put, she was outstanding. I used Ann as a consultant as I made my way through the divorce process. She is very bright, and gets to the key points quickly. I was impressed with her professionalism, the quality of ancillary resources, her sincere interest in my situation, and efficient use of her time, thereby moderating expense. Her personal integrity and professional ethics were stellar. I would highly recommend Ann for anyone in need of family law legal services.

I met Ann through a referral when I was going through my divorce. She met me quickly and looked over every detail of the pending issues in the case and narrowed down quickly on immediate steps. Every guidance and advice she gave had compassion as its underpinning and I will remain forever grateful to her for all that she did She consistently demonstrated that she wasn't out to make a buck but to put me - her client first and foremost. She met me routinely to go over the case, and helped me draft, review, critique parenting plans to financial/asset disclosures. She made sure I was factual, precise, followed the law and got my disclosures right the first time while being aware of my financial situation. Needless to say, meeting a divorce lawyer couldn't be any more joyous then going though the dark moments in ones live when everything seemed uncertain. Ann's counsel helped me gain confidence and trust in the system by which I avoided a long drawn out process. As I look back, I can't imagine a better legal expert to help in a case such as this. Paradoxically, I do hope I get to work with her again but maybe not :)

When I learned I needed to hire a lawyer, I interviewed 4 of them, with and without a consultation fee. Because this was a highly emotional time for me, I knew I had to work with someone who would always be responsive to my questions directly, (not go through a legal assistant), be extremely fair in dealing with my ex-husband's lawyer and with my settlement (no personality histrionics please), be kind, supportive, honest and most important charge reasonable legal fees. I chose Ann because of these qualities. A year later, I was not disappointed with my settlement, nor my choice. I highly recommend her.

Ann Wise handled my divorce with extreme professionalism and the necessary sense of urgency. My case was challenging because the person I was divorcing moved to the other side of the country, causing an issue with having him served, notarizing legal documents, and other logistics. Ann's expertise and problem solving throughout the process gave me peace of mind and kept the case moving to a settlement out of court. Despite several obstacles, she insured my divorce was final at the soonest possible legal date. The team at Tran & Wise were professional as well as compassionate throughout the entire process, and their efficiency kept my legal fees reasonable.

I hired Ann to assist me with a mediated divorce. She was extremely knowledgeable, supportive and also very kind. I felt that I was in great hands as she worked with me on all facets of my divorce - taxes, paperwork, custody, helping me understand the nuances and language of California Law. I have recommended Ann to everyone I know needing a divorce attorney. She helps make a difficult and uncomfortable situation more bearable and clear. You cannot go wrong with Ann!

Working with Ann was an excellent experience. In a matter of only a few visits with her, our mediation and divorce was complete. Ann also went out of her way to look for cost savings toward the process of mediation as well.

I had an outstanding legal team and Ann Wise was part of that team. My divorce took a few years and through those years I found Ann to be very professional, detail oriented and understanding. She is a great listener and worked diligently on getting a fair settlement for both sides. It was a complicated case as it was a marriage of duration which included children, property and a family business. I highly recommend Ann as she is dedicated, trustworthy and knowledgeable.

I worked with Ann Wise for my divorce and property settlement. She is smart, caring (a good quality in a lawyer and sadly one that seems to be rare), reasonable, knowledgeable, and available. I recommend her without reservation.

I met a several attorneys before I decided to have Ann as my attorney for divorce. She is personable and professional at the same time. Most of all, she was easy to talk to. She is very responsive. I emailed her all throughout the process which took about a year and I got response right away within few hours. I asked a good amount of questions and addressed all my concerns to her and she provided me with a lot of information and reasonable suggestions. I never had any issue about billing from her office. I received a refund check of remaining credit right after my divorce. I highly recommend Ann if you need a legal service for family matters.

Ann is a fantastic and very client friendly lawyer. Smart and knowledgeable, she is extremely well adept at handling very complex cases. Furthermore, as she is extremely organized, the evidence pulling and cross referencing process is greatly simplified. Ann is also appreciated in the lawyer community and she has been instrumental in working with opposing counsel on our case to temper what are often warped sentiments to reach a place of reason in settlement discussions. In our case Ann worked tirelessly with us and helped us secure several victories on repeated small motions by OC that were brought up as distractions in our case. I would strongly recommend her to anyone. She is a terrific attorney and she was a pleasure to work with.

Ann Wise was very responsive and knowledgeable in managing my case. She understood both the limitations and due process to strategically identify key contributing factors. Her patience under pressure was comforting and was able craft a strong defense in the final settlement. Ann has a stellar career ahead and would be an excellent choice to have on your side.
