I couldn't have asked for a better attorney during my custody dispute. Katie was extremely competent, efficient, communicative, and caring. She made sure I knew all my choices and the possible outcomes of those choices. She helped guide me through communication with a hostile second party and I always felt supported. She made me feel comfortable and confident during a very difficult time. If I am ever in need of this kind of assistance again, she will be the first person I contact.

I had to sue my insurance company after the 2017 fires. Dylan Schaffer was my attorney, he was professional and got the job done, successfully. I would absolutely recommend this firm to anyone, and I have... several times!

Would like to start off with saying that he is one of the most caring humans I know. He has helped me and my family many times. Everytime I call to ask a question or voice a concern he answers immediately and always has a positive solution to what can happen or not happen etc... I have never felt so calm and understood. Mr. Castillo is highly recommended and a great attorney. I have known him for many years and have never been disappointed. He will tell you exactly what he thinks and will not sugarcoat anything. Very responsive, respected and Professional.

I hired Katie to draft our prenuptial agreement. I could not be happier with the result! This was absolutely the best decision we could have made for our prenup. Katie is an amazing attorney and a delight to work with. She really listened to my questions and concerns. Katie thoroughly explained the relevant law and my various options. She listened without judgment and provided me with great advice whenever I was unsure. Our wedding date was thrown into chaos because of COVID but Katie was right there with us the whole time making me feel confident everything was being handled. I strongly recommend and her firm for any of your family law needs!

I had to divorce another party who had a personality disorder and made the divorce process incredibly difficult. She was able to navigate this territory very well and advised me when to act and when to let things go. In the end, I was able to get a fair settlement despite the difficulties with the other party.

Katie was incredibly helpful during my divorce. She was straightforward with me, and always helpful in explaining family law when needed. She was professional, friendly, very smart and a nice person in general. I have already recommended her services to two other friends.

By hiring Katie - I was able to obtain a restraining order (which was previously denied when I used the county’s self help center) With her representation, we were able to obtain court ordered drug testing, a support order, supervised visitation, and eventually due to the case’s circumstances, I was awarded sole custody. Katie’s communication was amazing. She held herself with the utmost professionalism at all times, while still being so relatable. I noticed our judge and other lawyers would get into disputes regarding information or responses, but not with Katie. There seemed to be a mutual understanding due to her extensive knowledge, she really knows the ins and outs, and it shows. I would not have been able to obtain literally everything I strived for if it weren’t for her representation. When your dealing with family, you stop at nothing for their best interest, and safety. Katie helped my family maintain normalcy, and in turn gave us the quality of a good life. I genuinely can’t thank her enough, for all that she did for me. The price of representation was fair, and WELL beyond worth it.

The professionals at Kerley Schaffer LLP were very helpful and without them I would have never ended up with such a nice settlement.
