I would highly recommend Claire. I reached out to a number of lawyers before I found Ms. Corcoran, and she ended up being the best that I could have asked for! She saw my situation through all the way to the end. She brings expert knowledge and understanding to her cases while working to offer you the best information to use in your decision making.

Bettencourt took on a DV divorce case. His client is unsavory. We are trying to maintain a much needed DVRO and he’s coming after US for $3000 in legal fees because him and his client chose to push court cases out and pad the bill. He is a terrible lawyer. Offers zero counsel to his clients, very unorganized and is trying to get money out of someone who can’t work because of chemo and radiation treatment due to brain cancer! He’s awful and unreasonable. If you want your abuser to suck more money from you instead of them paying the price of their actions, definitely hire this guy.

Claire Corcoran is an outstanding attorney. Ours was a difficult Trust case and Ms. Corcoran handled it with extreme expertise. We prevailed due to her expert knowledge of the law. She goes over and above in her research. She’s very upfront and thorough when explaining your case options. Final decisions are always yours but Ms. Corcoran always ensures you understand all the information and available options. We would highly recommend Ms. Claire Corcoran for your legal representation.

Helped my family out tremendously, definitely peace of mind!

Mr. Bettencourt and his staff do very poor quality work and when you ask him to do something for you on your case he flat out says “NO”. I had to revise every document that came through for review. It was either wrong or had a lot of mistakes. Trust me, there are better attorneys in the SLO area to choose from. Do not choose Mr. Bettencourt. Worst attorney I have ever dealt with and I worked with attorneys all my life. He’s lazy and non-responsive and he lies. Just trust me — stay away if you want a good attorney. He is cheaper than most, but I guess you do get what you pay for....... sadly! Stay away if you value your case. Pay a little more and get an attorney that sincerely cares about your case and is willing to bend over backwards to help you. It was like pulling teeth to get anything out of him and his staff. Bad with a capital “B”.

ACTION!

Best Lawyer in this county! His staff is amazing, while he gets the job done!
