Highly knowledgeable and experienced in divorce law, with strong relationships in the legal community
“Ms. Castrejon has incredibly persistence, epic knowledge of divorce law in Marin, patience, the ability to explain legal processes and rulings simply and effectively, excellent reputation among her peers and supreme organization.”
2
Effective communicator who provides clear and realistic advice
“She is able to make things that seem like a crisis and very complicated become very simple and straightforward in a very comforting and assuring way.”
3
Focused on achieving the best possible outcome for the client, even if it means taking a practical approach over an aggressive one
“If, however, you want an attorney who knows the law and can give you a fair-minded appraisal of the pros and cons of each potential legal strategy, someone who will litigate on your behalf if needed or partner with a mediator if that's the desired approach, then you can't do any better.”
4
Responsive and accessible, with a dedicated and professional support staff
“Rachel is always there for her clients, emotionally and legally. She is able to make things that seem like a crisis and very complicated become very simple and straightforward in a very comforting and assuring way. Nothing slips through the cracks as she and her staff are very attentive to every detail.”
5
Compassionate and understanding of the emotional toll of divorce, while maintaining professionalism
“From the first meeting with Rachel Castrejon, she showed her warmth and compassion for the pain I was in, while pragmatically leading me through each step of my challenging divorce journey.”
Cons
1
Occasionally made mistakes or provided incorrect advice that resulted in additional time and costs for the client
“Turn out, she is completely wrong and I have to go through court. Not only did she cost me time and money, but she delayed the modification dramatically.”
2
Can be unwilling to take aggressive actions, even when the client believes it would be beneficial
“She wouldn't expose my Xs criminal background in a Declaration, saying that she "wouldn't stoop to their level" which was a horrible idea, (but maybe good for her reputation?)”
