When it became clear I was going to need a divorce attorney, like most I asked around for recommendations. Bill came highly recommended and has not disappointed me once. At the initial consultation he listened and was very clear on what to expect. Bill came across as knowledgeable, honest and most importantly reliable. My initial overwhelmingly positive impression of both he and his staff has never faltered. During the course of my divorce I would often get calls or emails on the weekends or after hours from Bill or a member of his team. My divorce has ran longer then most and I have consistently received the highest quality representation from an attorney and staff who I believe genuinely care. I also think it is important to add that my preconceived notions of how a divorce works and the reality of the situation were very very far apart. Bill took the time to explain to me on several occasions the reality of the situation...I would argue with him..he would quote case law and give me examples very patiently and set me straight. I recently joked with a friend of mine I have a love/hate relationship with Bill Bratton. I honestly believe that my divorce could have been an unmitigated disaster given its contentious nature. Hiring Bill is the best decision I made during the arguably worst period of my life. I do hate that he has been right about everything...lol, his advice and guidance has been on point from day one. I have also taken the time to watch Bill work. When we have been in court I made it a point to watch him interact with other attorneys and even in court twice representing other clients. He demonstrates his vast experience with ease and clearly still has a passion for what he does. Bill is a master at his craft. I will close as I started...Bill Bratton is the best decision I made during the arguably worst period of my life.

I felt confident Bill would do a good job because I was referred to him by a deputy DA. Well, he and his team did an awesome job! Bill doesn’t waste time and spoke frankly and clearly helping me understand how to navigate a very complex and difficult negotiation with my spouse. Our settlement was unusual and unique but Bill understood my situation (because he LISTENS) and went the extra mile to make sure I was protected and achieved the end goal. Special thanks to Juanita for all her hard work, patience, and kindness.

The words compassionate, kind, considerate, fair, practical, are not commonly referred to when I hear talk of lawyers but this is exactly the treatment we received from Bill , Pam and their entire office. They went above and beyond our expectations. Bill impressed upon us how expensive principal is and it is in everyone's best interest to wrap up as soon as possible and move on with our lives, life is short and it isn't worth your time, effort and health (stress). Our case was difficult and it was a trial case. Our BEST interests were his motive , purely from the heart , his goal was to wrap up our case quick .He was able to accomplish what two prior lawyers hadn't been able to do. We are forever grateful for the grace he showed us , his knowledge, and professionalism along the way. They are a dynamic husband and wife team and we would highly recommend them! Thank you , Thank you , Thank you!

They know what they are doing

Mr. Razo was very professional and helpful from the start at my consultation to the end when my divorce was finalized. He and his staff always got back to me in a timely manner. They were very professional and thorough through the entire process and answered all of my questions. They were there for me every step along the way during the entire divorce process which is not a fun thing to go through. I would highly recommend Mr. Razo and his team.

Danielle is an amazing attorney to have on your side! Custody battles are long and stressful but Danielle made it as painless as it could be. She, along with her team, were easy to communicate with. When I had any questions or worries, they were prompt to address it and help ease my nerves. She’s straight forward and was honest about having realistic expectations that benefitted our son’s best interest. Danielle not only provided a strategic game plan that delivered results but also helped prep me before mediation and every court session to map out our approach. She made me feel prepared and ready for whatever that could arise. More so, Danielle is quick on her feet which plays a huge factor in court. She’s not like other firms that aren’t prepared for their cases or don’t care to remember details about their cases. She was knowledgeable about my case and knew exactly what to say to defend me when the opposing counsel was not being truthful or provided false information. Danielle’s amazing team of experienced attorneys and paralegals deserve recognition too! They were on top of everything! I interviewed and met with over a handful of firms but ultimately decided on Danielle because she was honest and personable. I’m beyond happy with Danielle's services. Custody battles that end up on court are usually with partners who have been too difficult to work with outside of court. You want to make sure you put in your all if you decide to go into ligation to accomplish anything. That’s where Danielle surpasses expectations, she managed to help me win the case and finally get the custody I’ve been unsuccessfully been fighting for all these years until now. Needless to say, I highly recommend Danielle and her team to anyone in need of a family attorney!

Mr. Bratton was an excellent attorney. I felt his billing was extremely fair, he was very knowledgeable and did not give any false hope. I felt the judge appreciated the way he handled the case and was very happy with how my case results ended. I will continue to use him if any further issues should arise.

These attorneys have no back bone don’t waste your time or money with this law firm.

Go elsewhere, you will be wasting time and money.

My family hired Bill Bratton from a friends referral. We worked with Bill and his team for 3 years, through a custody situation and divorce. Bill's team provided excellent service throughout the entire process. Bill himself would sometimes call late in the evening to confirm details, for trial. We would highly recommend Bill to anyone that asks.

I hired Mr. Bratton after being referred by my sister. She was very pleased with his services so I decided to set up a consultation with him. Bill was upfront with me from the very begging. I appreciated his honesty, understanding and his attentiveness to my concerns. He was very thorough in documenting every conversation and was quick to advise me on how to handle my ex. Being a father of three young daughters, I expected to fight an uphill battle with custody. Bill fought for me and got me what I deserved...50% custody!! He was there through my entire divorce process which included division of all assets, child custody, pension and retirements. Through the 2 1/2 year process, he made sure I was prepared for all court hearings and mediation, he returned all phone calls and emails in a timely manner and he made me feel that he sincerely cared about my case. Bill is worth every penny I spent.

I am a 47 old divorced dad with a 6-year-old lovely daughter. My ex-wife filed for a divorce about a year and a half ago claiming for full legal and physical custody over our daughter. We had been married for 17 years owning real estate and had my own business. I was just like anybody else panicked and I asked my friend to help to find the best attorney to representing me. I was told to call Bratton Razo Lord family law firm. Now my case is over and I could not be happier with the result. I unfortunately had to deal with the spouse who thought that because she is the mom so she can do and say anything. Besides that she accused me with almost anything just to win the case. Mr. Razo was a big relief since start.I felt so confident with him. He was always calm and focused. He always explained the situation and always had a plan to take care of the incoming attacks. Mr. Razo is young, but with the skill and logic like not too many attorneys have these days. My case had involved with the 730 evaluation. Court hearing after hearing Mr. Razo always been a step ahead of my ex’s attorney. Unfortunately negotiating our agreement with my ex wife was out of question since the start. Again Mr. Razo is more then an average attorney. He works towards nothing but the best results as possible. After every office meeting with Mr. Razo I felt very positive and hopeful until the final result. Mr. Razo has an excellent reputation even among attorneys as well. I was witnessing that the other experienced attorney asked his opinion while I was waiting front of the court room. Anytime I had to make a phone call to the office I was handled very professionally. Emails and messages returned with quickly. Also like to mention that Elisabeth Lord helped my case once Mr. Razo was not available and she had done an excellent job. Just another big win. She convinced me to see the judge instead of hopelessly dealing with the other parties. I could not believe to my ears the judge ordered the physical custody for me Monday through Friday for the whole 1st grade class for my daughter. HUGE AND RARE WIN!!!!!!!. - Not for Mr. Razo and Elizabeth Lord. Great team work of this law firm!!!!! I would highly recommend this law firm and especially Mr. Razo and Elizabeth Lord. I rarely leave feedback at all but I feel that I have to do it for Mr. Razo and for the law firm. He has done an AMAZING job for and my life is back and HAPPIER than before. Thank you Mr.Razo!!!
