Attorney Sondra Sutherland is my kids' hero. She knows how to handle difficult cases, especially cases that involve military retirement division. Military retirement division is complex, and not many attorneys in San Diego, know about how to navigate the rules and regulations regarding military retirement division. If you are looking for someone who knows about military retirement division laws, please give Sondra a call. She will fight for you! I was facing an extremely difficult military divorce case. The order I had included a wrong division of military pension, it also directed me to vacate my home, and put my home up for sale all within a very short period of time. I was also facing losing my share of the military pension, and I was especially facing trying to find a new home for me and my children, at a time when housing cost has skyrocketed in San Diego. The minute I spoke with Sondra she gave me hope. I knew she was a game changer. Attorney Sondra Sutherland was able to save and keep my children in our home. Sondra did a fantastic job on appeal, and guided me through the whole process. Sondra gets results, no doubt about it. The minute Sondra accepted to appeal my case, the other party offered to settle. I am blessed and grateful to have met Attorney Sondra Sutherland after dealing with so many other attorneys, and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on this case. Sondra fought for me and my children, she was understanding, and she especially went above and beyond with her research. One more thing that I loved about Sondra was her prompt communication. Sondra COMMUNICATES! So many attorneys do not return email or phone calls which leads to clients being frustrated. With Sondra, I always knew what was happening, and she always emailed me about what she was about to work on next, and what to expect. To add to all this, her ethics are top notch! I was surprise when she gave me her resume on our first meeting! She even sent me back a check from what was left from my escrow account at the end of the case. This, should tell you a lot about Sondra's ethics and her professionalism. Sondra simply works miracles! My kids spent a fantastic holiday in their childhood home, and they don't have to worry about changing schools, losing friends, and losing the place they call home, all thanks to Sondra S Sutherland. Sondra, I will always be forever grateful for the AMAZING work you did for me and my family. Reine G.

Sondra is tenacious, assertive and highly knowledgeable. When I first spoke to her on the phone I knew she was the right attorney for my case. She spent her time explaining all of my options and advising me as to the best course of action with my best interest in mind. She was always responsive to my calls and emails, regardless of what time it was and was diligent in keeping me informed. Sondra treated me as a person, not just another case. I do believe that had I hired anyone other than Sondra, my situation would not have turned out as favorable as it did. I highly recommend Sondra for any type of family law issue.

Sondra was the best lawyer I have ever had the pleasure to work with. My case was very intrigate, she was so prepared at trial even the other attorney who lost was so impressed he complimented her on a job well done. I still talk about that case to others and would highly recommend her to anyone who wants the best in the business.

Sondra represented me during a very contentious divorce, and her calm demeanor and strong legal acumen helped all involved parties to stay focused on the issues and fashion a solid agreement that has worked to safeguarded the interests of our two children. As a result, I would strongly recommend Sondra to anyone that desires to have exceptional representation when they enter into a legal dispute.

Sondra is honest and works hard for her clients. She is extremely knowledgeable about the law and legal procedures and as her client, I felt that she would do everything possible to protect my legal rights. In addition, she billed very fairly. If I ever needed a family law attorney again, I would choose Sondra Sutherland.

I was divorced nearly 15 years ago. Post judgement I had numerous run-ins with my ex. Sondra kept me on the straight and narrow, making sure that I didn't let reckless emotion get in the way of prudent decision making. She knows her stuff inside and out. I recommend her without reservation.
