I found Daniel through a recommendation and he exceeded my expectations. Daniel made it easy for me to understand the pre-marital agreement process and helped me through my concerns; he was transparent about potential difficulties and open with his time, suggestions, and thoughts. I truly appreciated his support, expertise, and kindness. I would recommend Daniel in a heartbeat.

It was a tough situation not only did I lose a partner I was also pregnant during my divorce. Mr. Gold was not just an attorney focused on proceedings/agreements, he did so with integrity and empathy, always taking into account who I was as a person and keeping my character intact in all decision-making. It's a very vulnerable and difficult time for me, and easy to lose sight of what is important. It's during these difficult times that character is often tested in many ways - Mr Gold always presented pros and cons of any decision that was ahead, how we wanted to shape it and what was best for me and my unborn child. It was the best decision looking back now. I had my son and moved from Los Angeles to the UK and now working in Singapore. I have covered 3 regions in my career progression and part of what made this possible is the fact that my ex husband showed minimal engagement in the early years of our son's life. I am really fortunate I am connected with Mr Gold, he has shown great interest in how my life turned out...and I believe deep down he's quite proud of how he's played a role in helping to liberate my situation and I have never looked back. Thank you Dan Gold...You are indeed THE BEST !

We had a fantastic experience working with Beatrice Phan Law for updating our family living trust. We had created, revised, and updated our trust over the past several years with three other estate attorneys previously, and I can say with certainty that Beatrice Phan Law provided the BEST and most thorough service and planning of them all. We especially enjoyed working with her client services director, Helen Pak, who is AMAZING-- exceptional listener, very attentive and thorough, warm and friendly, professional and kind...all at the same time. Beatrice has a clear process that she follows for her clients, which I appreciate. It's something that doesn't happen overnight, nor should it: creating or updating your trust is an important step in taking care of your family and loved ones, so it does require a lot of thought and time, especially if you need to have those deeper conversations with your spouse about things. Beatrice and Helen were great in working with our busy schedules as well as keeping us accountable and reminded of the upcoming follow-up appointments we had together. We greatly appreciate all that Beatrice and Helen have done in bringing us peace of mind and taking care of us.

Beatrice Phan and her legal assistant, Helen Pak, prepared my estate documents (trust, will, POA, etc). The whole process was "painless". I will use them in the future as needed and I recommend them to anyone needing estate legal planning services.

Ms. Rineer was the associate assigned to my husband’s personal injury matter at the beginning of the litigation, and was professional, diligent, thorough and communicative throughout.
Her hard work was a factor in the eventual successful conclusion of my husband’s claim, and I will be forever grateful for her attention to detail, respect and courtesy when she had responsibility for the matter.

I found the office to be very Professional from the start. Organized and ready to get any and all information from the first meeting and communicated when needed to keep everything moving forward. I was guided to what I may be in for when going up against the City. Allegra was always reachable, not once did she fail to follow up on any issues. If I ever needed any assistance that is in firms field, I would be calling Allegra first and often without hesitation. I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. Thank You Allegra and the team you work with.

My experience with Greer & Rineer Law was a life-changing one that will never be forgotten. In my situation I was dealing with a landlord who owed me back rent due to the fact that my apartment had been an illegal unit. The city made him close down the place and pay me to relocate but it also became apparent that I was owed back rent. When the landlord found out that I was going to pursue getting back some of my rent he began threatening me with all kinds of things that people with lots of money tend to do. He told me that he would sue me with lawyers that were way more expensive than what I could afford and used all kinds of supposed terminology and fake paperwork that he sent to me showing that I would actually owe him more money if I sought reimbursement. This was a very stressful time for me but, when I was referred to Allegra's Law Firm it was then that everything immediately started to de-escalate and I in turn began to de-stress. The best thing I can say about Allegra's Law Firm is that she and her partner never let anything go over my head. A lot of times if you're the layman and you don't understand legal terms and legal jargon it can be very confusing. I find things cmabout the law confusing when I'm just watching on television! Allegra and her partner Kathryn made it very easy for me to understand everything that was going on, they also helped me understand my rights, and they basically made it impossible for my landlord to scare me any longer since I truly knew and was aware of what I was to get back in return. They weren't only my attorneys, they were my advocates. They handle my case precisely and with tact and by the end of it all my life my former landlord decided to settle. I will forever be grateful to Greer and Rineer Law for what they did and how they stopped someone from creating stress in my everyday life.

From my very first interaction with Attorney Wittliff, I immediately sensed how much he genuinely cares about his clients. This was manifested in every encounter I had with him. He never pushed me down one path over the other, and took his time objectively educating me about the risks, benefits, and alternatives to every decision. He pours excellence into his work. He is honest, and displays moral integrity with every interaction. I am very fortunate to have had him guide me through such a difficult situation, and I will forever be grateful for him and his kind and thorough paralegal Ashley.

Jeffrey Witliff is one of the BEST. Kind and compassionate . Prior to retaining him I was able to consult with him and give me my options. From the start he was very transparent on what could happen. He is now my forever family law attorney. He assisted me for a DVRO hearing and trial with my ex fiancé. Mr. Wittliff was able to negatiote and handle the property aspect of my case as well as he is knowledgable about real estate . He is not only experienced but he has clients best interest at heart. Something that stood out to me was his communication and always getting back to me even the same day!
The office staff was friendly and professional. Definitely reccomend hiring this attorney.

I recently hired Ms. Sanaz Farkhad as my consulting attorney for my divorce and it was an absolute privilege to work with her. My situation was complex since I had been married for over 20 years. From the very first meeting, it was clear that I was in the hands of a true professional. Her advice was on point every step of the way. What truly stood out was her deep knowledge and expertise. She was able to guide me through the complexities of my case with ease, always explaining each step in clear and concise terms. This not only made me feel confident in her abilities, but also gave me peace of mind knowing that every aspect of my situation was being handled with the utmost care and attention.
Beyond her technical skills, Ms. Farkhad was incredibly kind and approachable. Her empathy and dedication made me feel like more than just a client, she truly cared about the outcome and my well-being throughout the entire process.
Thanks to Ms. Farkhad I achieved an outcome that exceeded my expectations. I was able to complete my divorce amicably and expeditiously in about 6 months. If you're looking for an attorney who combines unparalleled legal expertise with genuine kindness and professionalism, I strongly recommend Ms. Farkhad. She is a rare find in the legal world.

My business partner took a substantial amount of money from our business account towards the end of our partnership. I had no choice but to hire an attorney to recover my share of assets. Michael knew I was already low on funds and took my case on a contingency basis. Michael's peristence paid off and we settled out of court. Thanks.

Sara is a true professional and joy to work with. I called her about a commercial tenant/landlord dispute that I was pursuing legal action for. I needed advice on how to draft a demand letter stemming from substantial damages to my office. From the start of our conversation, even when I engaged in verbal diarrhea and spewed numbers and facts and negative emotions at her, Sara remained articulate, intuitive, and calm.
She listened to my brain dump of ideas and thoughts and was able to parse out important details that we could use as leverage in the case. She immediately asked for all documentation (emails, contracts, photos, invoices, etc) of my communication with this horrid commercial landlord. Given that I called her on a busy Tuesday afternoon, she drafted a beautiful demand letter by the end of the week. I was flabbergasted and impressed by her level of commitment to MY cause. It definitely put my mind at ease having her in my corner.
Sara is ostensibly sharp, quick-witted, and more than willing to do her homework. I will definitely retain her for any and all future cases for my business and personal needs.

Todd Haddock was an answer to prayer for a very complex and challenging child custody case. This was an intensely painful, frustrating and contentious relationship with the father throughout the months it took to resolve custody. Todd was patient, affirming, honest, realistic, and available at every turn. He explained the various court actions and helped us balance the risks and benefits of each move. His advice was right on. After 3 different judges and countless court dates, we got more than we could have ever imagined or dreamed of. Words can't express the gratitude we feel. We knew we made the right choice after our first call to the Law Office of Cameron Fernandez and our initial meeting with Todd. We will be grateful every single day for the next 13 years (when the order runs out) and beyond!

My daughter hired Christine to represent her in a Family Law case that I was involved in as well. We were together all day (8 hours) on some of the court days so we really got to know Christine and see how she performed under pressure. We found Christine to be extremely professional, smart and very organized with great attention to detail. We also enjoyed being with her during our lunch breaks as well. Christine believed in our case and worked tirelessly to represent us. She was always aware of all court/hearing dates and showed up early fully prepared with lots and lots of notes and an amazing memory for facts and details. Christine skillfully and efficiently argued our case and was not afraid to object or petition the judge if things were not represented correctly. She also has excellent communication skills and can be tenacious when fighting to represent you in court. We believe we prevailed in our case thanks to Christine's excellent skill set and tireless work ethic.

Anthony made me feel more educated and confident about the documents that I was going to sign. He was also friendly and made my friend and I feel comfortable during the consultation.

I had the unfortunate circumstance of needing to hire a family law attorney, and went through several before finding Danielle. She is honest (which sadly is very hard to come across in this field), works with integrity, and most importantly, is an expert in what she does. She helped me finally gain confidence in our case, and give me and my family long, overdue justice. I can’t thank Danielle and the team at Quinn and Dworakowski enough for the time and energy they put into hearing our case and being an advocate for my daughter.

Arman and Ashley are amazing. They gave my divorce all the time and attention I needed to get the best settlement I could have asked for. Divorce is a chaotic experience, but Arman was with me the entire time patiently explaining the process the whole way through. I have since referred a few friends to this practice without hesitation.

- Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
- Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?
Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:
- Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
- Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
- Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -
How long do you expect my case to take?
While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
Who will be handling my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.
How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
- Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
- Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
- Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:
- Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
- List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
- Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
- Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
- Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.
Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
