Easiest review I can give. They helped get my offer in compromise accepted by the IRS. I owed $35,000, but Ms. Delia was able to settle it for just $500. Honestly, that’s all you need to hear—give them a call!

Dawn Delia is the best tax attorney you'll find! I'm so grateful for her help with my small tax issue. I just needed a payment plan and was too scared to call the IRS. She advised me to set up a payment plan on the IRS website to save money, but I still wanted to hire her. She agreed and quickly got it done. Even though my case was small, she treated me like an important client. She's a wonderful person!

I had been in law enforcement for thirty-five years before retiring in 2014 and have owned a New Jersey Private investigation firm since 2016. Early this Spring, I needed to find a California Private Investigator in order to assist me in conducting a multi jurisdictional investigation.
I received multiple recommendations from my colleagues in New Jersey that John Munoz owner of Trusted Eye Investigations was the go to investigator in Southern California. Following the advice I was given I reached out to John and immediately could tell he was a cut above many investigators I had ever worked with
Over our three month investigation found John was professional, knowledgeable in investigations as well as being able to think outside the box. John is determined to do a good job and never seems to get tired.
I suggest if your in need of a private investigator, at minimum you should give John a look, you are gonna like what you see.

I would highly recommend David R. Silldorf law offices. They know what they’re doing. They’re always reliable on rushing situations and from the easiest to harder cases. They were very flexible with my payment method on such a hard time for me during my case.
And to Sydney Rusch, all my respect and appreciation towards her and her professionalism at what she does. She is very well prepared. She was always willing to make everything work based on my schedule. She helped me through all of it from our free first consultation to the end of the case. She will listen and get to work right after for you. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Very great job.

I am extremely grateful to Mr. Reznik for all of the hard work and dedication both him and his team put into my case. His expertise, honest advice and integrity were crucial in negotiating various contracts for my business. One of the things that gets complicated with contracts and speaking to attorneys is understanding all the legalese. Mr. Reznik explained in a way that made it easy to understand and made perfect sense. If you have a contract, there is definitely no better attorney to hire. I highly recommend him, the absolute best!

If I could give negative stars, I would. While it may sound cliché, it is absolutely true in this case. If you are considering hiring Ilona, please take a step I regret not taking: ask around about her reputation at various firms. Doing so could save you hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Ilona took 5-6 months to draft a Marital Settlement Agreement (MSA) based on mediation outcomes, a task that should have taken just a few days. This delay resulted in costs of $50,000 to $60,000 for a poorly executed MSA. This amount does not even cover the majority of her work, which was far from satisfactory.
It’s important to know that there are remedies if you find yourself in a situation with an attorney who appears to intentionally botch work for future financial gain. This experience ranks among the top five worst mistakes I've made in 44 years. I cannot stress enough the importance of asking around before hiring.
Additionally, Ilona spams out most of her legitimate reviews with fake ones. When I requested her to correct her mistakes, she demanded more money to do so. What other service demands additional payment to fix their own intentional errors? It’s incomprehensible.

I am so happy about the settlement and the way he conducted his business with me. I truly believe in this young man and will recommend all of my friends to this law firm.

I was very fortunate to retain Claire Lightner to represent me in my Divorce a few years back. I must say she couldn't make me feel more secure and really handled my Divorce flawlessly. She was always available and accessible and I never felt like I could not reach her for any questions or concerns I may have had. Claire is very detailed oriented and was so prepared for every situation that was thrown at her. My Divorce was a very stressful situation for me but, she was aggressive and she proved that she was there to comfort me and make me feel at ease. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a solid Divorce Attorney and I have done so many times since!

I can't say enough how grateful I was for the excellent legal representation I received from Claire. Going through a divorce was one of the most stressful events in my life and I couldn't have been in better hands. She had to work with a very difficult petitioner who had a very challenging lawyer. I was so impressed with how she wouldn't to allow the legal expenses for useless actions brought on by the petitioner to get out of hand. She was excellent in the courtroom and always well prepared. She always made sure I understood what the legal actions I was facing and was well prepared on how to counsel me on my options. Her legal knowledge, care for her clients, professionalism, honesty and integrity are at the highest level.
I highly recommend Claire for any family law needs.

First off, no one asked me or suggested I write a favorable review for my former Attorney Claire Lightner (pause to raise right hand and solemnly swear). This is just a small token of my appreciation for her taking on my train wrecked case, knowing that there would be no big pay out at the conclusion. The other reason I'm writing this review is for those conducting their due diligence in seeking a strong female divorce attorney who is scrupulous, smart, and a true advocate. (I went through 3 attorneys prior to finding Claire, two of which were women and neither one held a candle to Claire.) I know that's a big statement and I wouldn't say it if it weren't true - especially after the WAR I went through (4 years) in total. After my horrific experience with the painfully slow family court system, and attorneys (1 especially who represented me for 9 months who truly earned the rep that most attorneys are blood suckers), I felt folks should know that there is an attorney I would recommend and I'm sure other clients of Claire's would as well. My only regret is I found her so late in my case that much of it was not repairable. That said, she fought hard to right the ship as best as she could and I and my children will be forever grateful. Claire and her paralegal Dorothy work well as a team and are meticulous with details. Expect nothing but sheer professionalism, don't expect hand holding, a shoulder to cry on or therapy (not that they aren't sympathetic), they are, but they are not about wracking up billable hours - which is a good thing! They stick to facts and the law and present them in a clear and convincing way. Advice or consults are good as well - if you want to start there. I feel Claire is honest in her reaction in hearing the details of the case and also predicts an honest scenario of expectation too. Even if it's not best case for you or what you hoped to hear. Now that I think is the mark of TRUE professional with morals and values! In the more often than not ugly divorce business, I think that's really something. Good luck!

I hope I don't ever have to use them again, but if for some reason we do definitely will. will also recommend them to family and friends if needed

I was referred to Maria and it was one of the greatest decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I spoke to her on the phone, I felt comfortable and safe. I had a very high conflict custody case and I never thought this process would end; but Maria was extremely helpful, thorough, attentive, resourceful and knowledgeable every step of the way. I felt at ease and confident through it all. She is so understanding, kind, and gracious, yet tough and hard as nails when she needs to fight for you. We won our case and the outcome was more than I expected. I’ve experienced other family lawyers and nothing compares to the care she gave my case. I HIGHLY recommend Maria. A simple “thank you” can’t express the gratitude, peace she has made me feel and what she has brought to my life. She gave me a voice and made it loud and clear. I consider her an angel. Thank you Maria for EVERYTHING.

I was David vs Goliath. My ex had a powerful family and stacked the deck against me, and I thought I would never get to have my son. My ex and her family had done everything they could to keep me and my son seperated. I had nobody to help me. Maria was able to prepare me and guide me through the scariest part of the legal system; and without her I WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN THROUGH IT. I cannot overstate how grateful I am for her help. she is incredible and fought for me. Do not hesitate to call her.

Maria handled my custody case and she did an awesome job. She took my concerns seriously and helped to present them in a professional manner. She is a great lawyer and a very warm person, super easy to get along with and talk to about our case. Her response time for my MANY questions was excellent, she is well educated on the ins and outs of child custody. Maria was always straight forward and honest while handling my case, which was hard to find so it was greatly appreciated. We will definitely be using her again!

We hired Britney Malpiede to prepare and litigate in Family Court on two occasions. She arrived prepared with full knowledge of the scope of our complex situation and was able condense our argument into simple rational terms for the court, which she articulated with great skill and respect. Defending us during a short Ex Parte hearing, Brit was able to to completely change our Judge's initial bias by convincing the Judge to take recess and read the strong declaration with evidence she prepared. After which I was awarded Joint Legal Custody. Brit is both professional and empathetic; she gives advise based on experience and careful investigation. Brit showed she clearly has good standing/ reputation with the San Diego Court. This matters a great deal. When she spoke, the Judge listened. I couldn't not say the same for the other party's aggressive counsel. If you are searching for an attorney, look no further. You are in good hands with Britney Malpiede.

If you are involved in a family law case I couldn’t stress the importance of a good lawyer enough. I talked to, and was disappointed by several Family Law offices before meeting Ms. Malpiede back in 2014. When she began working on my case I was in a really bad place in terms of being able to see my kids. Ms. Malpiede always conducted herself professionally and had the foresight to help me “go high” when the opposing party “went low” and to always put the children first. Now, thanks to Ms. Malpiede I am able to be with my kids every week. I’m very happy with and grateful for Ms. Malpiede’s work.

Ms, Malpiede went up against my ex's attorney who's slogan was " When the rings come off, the gloves do too!" She remained professional, maintained her cool and ultimately stayed (professionaly, I might add) the course to achieve the best result to my case. She is knowledgeable about military divorce(which mine was), compassionate and supportive throughout the entire process, even though I was an ex-wife who hadn't worked in four years, was blindsided by this process and she explained everything to me, this helped me SO MUCH and for which I remain eternally grateful!! This is, by far, the best attorney to handle your divorce and I will be referring a couple of my friends to her as she is the best person possible!!!!

I had a phenomenal experience with Shelli! I am so grateful for all of her hard work and kindness and honestly kind of sad that now that our case is settled, I won't get to talk to her as much because she's so sweet. She was extremely responsive (even when emergencies came up like early on a Sunday morning) and always just so understanding and kind. She spent hours upon hours reviewing my case and I felt like she really understood my son and his needs. She gave excellent advice. She worked so hard for us and we're really happy with the results she achieved. I highly recommend her!

Coronado Unified School District revoked my disabled sons interdistrict transfer with 5 weeks left in the 23-24 school year because of his behavior (a direct manifestation of his disability). They were unable to support him effectively and apparently thought effectively kicking him out was easier. Jennifer Holtzman was an absolute treasure in bringing this to the school district and we were ultimately successful and settled. While the district doesn't "admit guilt" through a settlement, I hope they understand that what they did was disgusting at best. Very thankful to have the Law Office of Matthew Storey on our side.

I was uncomfortable from the first time I walked into the office. I felt like I was in the middle where they just grind out bankruptcies. I was not happy about filing a bankruptcy but it needed to be done. In the meantime things went from bad to worse my son died and I was in the hospital for a month. When I told them I really wanted to go with a different firm one of their employees told me that they would keep me in court to use all the money. I was talking about small claims court. She was almost yelling at me. I’m thinking about making a complaint with the state attorney board. But I warn you right now stay away from them. I am shortly going to be 74 years old. And the way she yelled at me it was almost elder abuse. I believe their shysters. And due to my failing health. I’ve been delayed and filing a small claims court. To my knowledge you cannot be represented by an attorney in small claims court. But apparently their employee thought differently. Beware

What a Child Support Lawyer Can Do for You
A child support lawyer specializes in legal issues related to the financial support that one parent provides to another for the upbringing of their children. These lawyers assist with establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders, ensuring that the financial needs of the child are met, including housing, food, healthcare, education, and other essentials. A child support lawyer can also represent parents in disputes over the amount of support, ensure fair calculations based on income, and handle legal proceedings if one parent fails to meet their obligations.
Whether you're seeking to establish child support, modify an existing order, or enforce payments, a child support lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
When Should I Hire a Child Support Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child support lawyer when you need assistance with any of the following child support matters:
- Establishing child support: If you are going through a divorce or separation and need to establish a child support order, a lawyer can help ensure that the support amount is fair and accurately calculated.
- Modifying child support orders: If there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, income change, or a child's financial needs, a lawyer can help you request a modification to the existing child support order.
- Enforcing child support payments: If the other parent has failed to make court-ordered child support payments, a lawyer can help enforce the order through legal means such as wage garnishment, property liens, or even legal action.
- Disputing child support calculations: If you believe the child support amount has been incorrectly calculated based on your income or expenses, a lawyer can help you challenge the calculation and seek a fair adjustment.
- Paternity disputes: If paternity needs to be established before child support can be ordered, a lawyer can assist with DNA testing and legal proceedings.
- Interstate child support cases: If the parents live in different states, navigating child support laws can be complex. A lawyer can help ensure the proper jurisdiction is established and that child support is enforced across state lines.
- Child support during custody disputes: If child custody and child support are being determined simultaneously, a lawyer can help ensure that both issues are resolved fairly and in the best interest of the child.
Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your child support case is handled effectively and that your child's financial needs are met.
What Does a Child Support Lawyer Do?
A child support lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents secure, modify, and enforce child support arrangements. Their responsibilities often include:
- Filing for child support: A lawyer can help you initiate the legal process to obtain a child support order, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted and deadlines are met.
- Calculating child support: A lawyer can help ensure that child support is calculated fairly based on both parents' incomes, the needs of the child, and other factors such as healthcare and education costs.
- Negotiating child support agreements: If both parents are willing to negotiate, a lawyer can help facilitate an agreement on child support outside of court, which can then be approved by a judge.
- Representing you in court: If negotiations fail or the other parent contests the child support amount, a lawyer will represent you in family court, presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Modifying support orders: A lawyer can help you file a request for modification if circumstances change, such as a loss of income or an increase in the child’s financial needs.
- Enforcing child support: If the other parent is not making court-ordered payments, a lawyer can take legal steps to enforce the order through wage garnishment, property liens, or other measures.
- Handling complex cases: In cases involving high incomes, self-employment, or complicated financial situations, a lawyer can help ensure that all relevant factors are considered in determining child support.
How Are Child Support Lawyers Paid?
Child support lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Most child support lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. The total cost will depend on how much time the lawyer spends on your case, including preparation, negotiations, and court appearances.
- Flat fee: For more straightforward cases, such as uncontested child support agreements or basic modifications, some lawyers may offer a flat fee that covers all services related to the case.
- Retainer: Many lawyers require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount of the retainer depends on the expected complexity of the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or provide pro bono (free) services in cases where clients cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially when children’s needs are at stake.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are covered.
How Much Does a Child Support Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a child support lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Uncontested child support cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and the lawyer’s fees.
- Contested child support cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, especially if the case involves significant court time.
- Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour for child support cases, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases that involve complex financial issues.
- Modification or enforcement: Fees for modifying or enforcing a child support order may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity and the need for court intervention.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.
Top Questions to Ask a Child Support Lawyer
Before hiring a child support lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child support cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges you may face. -
How long will the process take?
Child support cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors may cause delays. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What documents should I prepare?
Ask the lawyer what financial documents and other information you should bring to help them calculate child support and build your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Support Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child support lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and have successfully handled child support cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on child support matters.
- Check for certifications: Some lawyers may have certifications in family law or membership in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), which can indicate their expertise in child support and family law issues.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a child support lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Income documents: Bring pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s, or any other documentation of your income and the other parent’s income, as this will be used to calculate child support.
- Existing child support orders: If there are any existing child support or custody orders, bring copies for the lawyer to review.
- Child-related expenses: Provide documentation of your child’s medical bills, education expenses, daycare costs, and any other expenses that should be factored into the child support calculation.
- Communication with the other parent: Bring any communication between you and the other parent regarding child support, whether through emails, text messages, or written agreements.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer’s fees.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
