I have only positive things to say about this law firm. I went into not knowing anything about how to handle my divorce. I am glad I called. I was represented by Eric Schneider who since the first call I was impressed by how professional and knowledgeable Eric was. I knew I had the right place. Eric approach was direct and at the same time sensitive and understanding. Eric always follow up and never left me in the dark. When it comes to the rest of the staff always friendly and quick to respond. Just a great experience during a very difficult time. Thank you Eric!

I highly recommend Attorney John T. Sylvester from the Law Offices of David C. Beavans, APC to all those who are considering an appeal of a Court ruling. I have found Mr. Sylvester to be highly professional, intelligent, and a matter-of-fact attorney. Mr. Sylvester will analyze appropriate Court rulings and offer a clear concise plan to accomplish your goals.

My name is Brian and I represented Dr. Ed Siegel as a volunteer campaign manager in an unsuccessful bid for Solana Beach City Council in 2016. My candidate lost and later turned against me when we were both served legal complaints with a combined amount of $25,000,000. David and I communicated for several months prior to finally receiving a summons. David has always listened, kept his promises and followed through as he stated he would. What I really respect about Dave is his professionalism, sense of understanding regarding the subject matter, and trust and freedom he has granted me as a client. David does not seem to be phased by multiple pseudonyms, controversial articles, and even being involved in multiple lawsuits. He understands the issues, presents solutions and is determined to win the two anti-SLAPP motions. David Beavans and John Sylvester have worked diligently to defend my First Amendment rights and have made every effort to see that my case is supported in the matter it should be. I'm very thankful to have Mr. Beavans on my team and would recommend his services in a heartbeat.

My name is Brian and I represented Dr. Ed Siegel as a volunteer campaign manager in an unsuccessful bid for Solana Beach City Council in 2016. My candidate lost and later turned against me when we were both served legal complaints with a combined amount of $25,000,000. The defamation lawsuit was initiated by two council members and a developer and derived from an article titled, "Shady Business on the Solana Beach Train Tracks," boldly stating the council members and developer (now plaintiffs) were jointly involved in a backdoor deal. The developer made a $1.15 M donation to Solana Beach's Gateway Park and in return was awarded a project which could exceed $100 M. David and I communicated for several months prior to finally receiving a summons. David has always listened, kept his promises and followed through as he stated he would.

Mr. Sylvester has helped my family tremendously as he represented me with a appeal and now he is representing me in the family law. He worked very fast and was very informative when I had any concerns and or questions. Mr. Sylvester has helped put my mind as ease when I’ve became overwhelmed and not understanding. He would take time and make sure I understood all my different options as well. I would highly recommend this firm if you need any representation in legal matter.

John Sylvester was my divorce attorney last year, he also handled the custody and child support cases. He is very professional, honest, timely, thorough, and organized. The process was very stressful, and the case took a few unexpected twists and turns. During these times, I was always advised on which options I had, and what those options would entail (cost, court, time, etc). We had to go to court numerous times, and each time, it was very obvious that Mr. Sylvester was prepared, well spoken, direct, and respected by the judge. I felt like all my questions were always answered, no matter how trivial or silly they might have seemed at the time. I felt good that I always had a solid plan with John in my case, as well as a couple of back-up plans in case things went in a direction we were not anticipating. Thank you John and the whole office for providing great services with kindness.

The Law Office of David C Beavans which also include Caitlin V. Steele and John T. Sylvester is by far the best Family Law Firm that I have ever had the privilege of coming in contact with. My case is very intense and complicated; they took my case when no one would. I had given up until Caitlin called me unexpectedly and informed me that the firm would take my case it bought tears to my eyes, not because they took the case but because they believed in me. The Firm knew I was fighting a bully and they were willing to fight for me (the Firm felt I had been beaten down). They have taken my case to Court of Appeal when I read their Opening Brief I was overwhelmed with the work that was done and that someone would go to the mat for me. I cannot express the love I feel for Caitlin and John their professionalism, efficiency, experience and abilities is exceptional in my eyes words cannot express my feelings. If you are reading this review looking for a Family Law Firm go with The Law Office of David C. Beavans they will fight for you. They are a true the JUSTICE LEAGUE Thank you David, John and Caitlin

Mr. Beavans's law firm took my case when no one else would. They fought hard and long for me and won. The firm knew I was being bullied and stepped in on my behalf to me this the true Justice League.

Going through a divorce is the last thing I wish upon anyone, but if you find yourself in that situation (like I did) then you need an attorney that will aggressively and effectively represent you. David and his staff not only met but exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Mr. Beavans.

After going through 3 attorneys I finally have someone who cares about me and my case. Caitlin Steele, an attorney at David Beavans firm, is amazing. She is motivated, proactive and truly cares about me. What a refreshing change from the other attorneys I had. If you need an attorney to fight for you then Caitlin Steele is who you should hire. She has gone above and beyond for me. Many thanks to Caitlin and the entire team at David C. Beavans Law Offices.

I couldn't be happier with the outcome of the services I have received from David Beavans and his legal team. I hired David after searching around for a family law attorney months ago. My Aunt is retired from working in a law firm and after her own research she suggested David to represent me in what should have been a cut and dry case. You may think your family law case should be easy enough to handle, but the other party can be quite unpredictable in these sensitive situations. My simple case faced twists and turns that could have still kept me waiting to this day to get resolved. Luckily I hired David and his excellent staff to take care of it all. I had a time frame in which I was determined and depending on to get my case pretty much settled by the time I needed it (not want, NEEDED it) to be wrapped up with orders in place. Davids law firm as a whole saw that through and met my goals. David is very astute and knowledgeable in family law and when it finally comes down to show time, he delivers without any hesitation. He will fight for you in court, but its the process that leads up to that point in which I am very grateful for. He took my after hour calls, him and his associates returned my emails promptly, and he listened to me speak without cutting me off ever and I'm sure due to stress that I probably didn't even make sense some of the times! Regardless, David and his associates told it like it was, told the other party like it was, and never just told me what I wanted to hear. He's fair, trustworthy, respectful of his client relationships, and he is not out to drain your bank account like some lawyers out there are. Lizel and his associate Caitlin also get much credit for helping me. A big Thank you to David and his staff!! I don't want to need a family law lawyer attorney again, but if I do I'm coming back here.
