Lesley was very Kind, she listened and Let me talk her ear off. I honestly felt better about my child support case. I really appreciate Lesley. Thank you

First and foremost, I want to begin by saying that Fenchel Family Law is an exemplary firm and demonstrates the type of professionalism, integrity and ethics that should be expected of all law firms. Unfortunately, that is most certainly not the case. If you are searching for a family law attorney , I can stay with confidence and without hesitation , my sole recommendation is Ms. Jennifer Ani. Ms. Ani has represented me for the past year and a half in a child support/custody " battle" to say the least. Ms. Ani accomplished what most would deem impossible. I can finally say with an overwhelming amount of joy, my case is closed and the outcome was exactly what Ms Ani and I intended/ hoped for. She accomplished exactly what she said she would all while Insuring my daughter's well-being remain priority throughout the case. I speak from experience when saying it is easy to lose sight of what you are fighting for a midst all the accusations, allegations, and overwhelming emotions that are heard and said during such a trying time. Ms. Ani never once lost focus. She is honest, calm, aggressive when needed, organized and managed to keep me calm and composed throughout my case which in itself is a miracle. Her level of expertise coupled with her passion for family law is abundantly clear to anyone who has the pleasure of speaking with her. This was not a black and white case. On the contrary, it was an extremely complicated case that involved sexual assault allegations, child protective services, possible weapon charges, alleged drug use, kidnapping, money laundering and the llist is endless. Most attorneys would shy away from such a case, but not Ms Ani. She was not intimidated by the work ahead of her, rather she was confident in her ability to get justice and protect my daughter. I was kept up-to-date on every detail including, but not limited to email communication with opposing counsel. There were no surprises, and all of my questions were answered in a timely manner (anyone who has ever had an attorney knows that is not a common occurrence) Going to court can be overwhelming, intimidating and better yet distressing, especially when your child is involved. Ms. Ani made it a priority to ensure I was more than prepared for each hearing leaving no detail untouched. I felt confident having her by my side throughout this difficult time. I am not sure I would've been able to hold it together as I did without her support, knowledge, compassion, and of course, representation. I highly recommend Ms. Ani if you are in need of a family law attorney. I can assure you, she will take the time to listen to your case and be realistic in what you can expect and what you cannot. I appreciate honesty, especially in this sort of situation. I can promise you that is exactly what you will get having Ms. Ani in your corner.

I highly recommend Fenchel Family Law. Their team helped me navigate through the dissolution of my marriage. Abby O'Flaherty and Kasey Dunton served as consulting attorneys on my mediation case, and their expertise and support were outstanding - from start to finish. Legal work is generally costly, but for the money I spent it was well worth the dedicated attention and care I received throughout the process. Thank you, FFL!

Michael help me with my case and during the whole process he was very professional and respectful. He always took the time to explain everything and make sure that I was comfortable at all times. I really appreciate everything he did for me and all the work that he did I would really recommend Michael to all friends and family, thank you Michael for everything you did

Excellent firm. They really understood my specific needs and educated me on the topic so I could gather the necessary data and make the best possible decision.

Friendly, fast, and thorough service! Thank you for your guidance and advice!

I chose Fenchel after doing some research on a number of firms and felt that they had one of the best reputations for family law in the bay area. I talked to at least four different firms prior to making a choice and it was obvious by the end of it who I would partner with. After working with Fenchel, my choice proved the correct one. Fenchel has attracted some of the best talent in the Bay Area and I look forward to the chance to work with Valerie and her team, again.

After an extremely negative experience with a previous firm, I was horrified to find someone new. My new lawyer Abby O'Flaherty from the day she took over absolutely DOMINATED every single thing we went after. The level of care, compassion, and determination blew my mind. Again, after such a bad first experience I didn't know what to expect. This firm and Abby guided me through the process and would actually take the time to explain things to me. Court is obviously a wildly stressful thing as is, so it definitely helps having someone on your side that is friendly, knowledgeable, and truly cares about the case and it's not "just another paycheck". Even besides Abby, the office helped me through many confusing and stressful aspects too. I am extremely appreciative! Simply put, I would not be where I am today without the help of the Fenchel Family Law Firm. I WOULD FOR SURE RECOMMEND THIS FIRM, AND EVEN MORE SPECIFICALLY ABBY O'FLAHERTY IF YOUR ABLE.

I worked with Abby at Fenchel Family Law and she was fantastic! Super knowledgeable, honest, and responsive. Highly recommended!

I definitely recommend Fenchel Family Law. We needed legal help with a very complicated family issue. The entire team was very helpful, understanding and considerate of our situation. I primarily worked with Robert Travis -- a truly amazing lawyer. Robert has an amazing talent for reading the facts, listening to the client and extracting the true point of the argument to be able to eloquently and concisely write the information into a motion that goes before the courts. Going through the court system is never easy, particularly in the family courts -- It is incredibly important to have skilled and competent help in these matters. I definitely recommend Fenchel Family Law

Valerie and Abby provided great service and advised me through a very difficult divorce. I highly recommend them.
