My case was handled professionally, with great attention to detail, thorough investigation and research and due diligence.
I would highly recommend The Figueroa Law Group to handle another case if it were ever to become necessary.

Attorney Figueroa has carefully selected staff that enjoy their jobs. It comes across in the way they have treated me and all those that are a part of my dissolution of marriage. If you want a friendly experience during a challenging part of your life I would recommend the Figueroa Law group.

I lost $8k to Figueroa, their non-refundable retainer, for an uncontested divorce with literally almost nothing to show for it but a tremendous amount of stress and the near-constant feeling of abandonment by my lawyer. It was extremely stressful trying to get anything done through Figueroa. Possibly Figueroa's most aggravating habit was a the following loop, which characterized the 7 months I suffered under Figueroa:
1) My wife's attorney would reply with new requirements,
2) I would incorporate them, write my full reply & sent it to Figueroa to type into their master document. Figueroa uses a locked format that I (the client) cannot edit.
3) Figueroa would ignore me generally for about a week.
Note, this consisted of me sending Figueroa my reply with Figueroa charging me 1/10th hour ($35) to acknowledge receipt of my email, but no indication if or when Figueroa would do anything about it. I learned to email them every day ($35 charged each email with nothing to show for it); I had to bug them daily or they completely forgot about me for literally weeks at a time.
4) Once Figueroa did incorporate my response and sent it to me for proofreading (my requirement), the Figueroa reply almost invariably incorporated serious typos that I had to fix. Because the client cannot access the Figueroa format, I had to wait, and wait, for the paralegal (or whoever) to change her mistake. They had a different paralegal respond to me almost each time, so there was usually no continuity and I had to update each new paralegal almost weekly, costing a new amount each time.
- This Figueroa cycle of ignoring me for a week at a time or longer made an already stressful situation much worse; it was clear Figueroa did not have my back. They didn't even know my back was there! They still charged 1/10th hour each time I called or emailed, which turned out to be a fruitless endeavor on my part).
This stretched on for 6 months; a significant part of this was fixing their own mistakes since they couldn't seem to type.
My ex-wife and I reached final agreement after the ex increasing her demands 7 times in writing, but I could not get Figueroa to type it into their form.
So I fired Figueroa, after it was clear I was so low on their priority list that I was not worth a reply. Apparently they make their $$ in litigation so if you have an uncontested divorce, use the lawyer I replaced Figueroa with, which started from scratch (using her own forms), charged less than half the Figueroa retainer, and had me legally divorced in one month. My impression of Figueroa is they are a very unfocused, disorganized office, with a different person replying every time - if they replied at all. Nearly impossible to speak to my attorney there; she was almost always too busy to talk to me. Overall, a very bad experience that was completely avoidable.

I was in a battle for my children with an ex-husband with a bottomless wallet & the best attorney in his town. Well, I got the best attorney in my town with Diana. She listened, referenced law books, looked over all the documents I took to her (a few inches thick) and we hired her. She always stayed in touch and now our kids are our kids. My ex-husband has NO rights to the children. It's as if he never existed. I am proud to say that my oldest child has her Master's Degree in Social Work, helping abused and PTSD youth, while our son has Autism, he is an adventure everyday (and safe, THANK YOU DIANA), and our youngest just graduated High School and is on her way to college. I could not recommend a more professional and caring law firm and attorney than Diana Figueroa and The Figueroa Law Group, P.A. We are forever thankful to you.

I cannot find the words to express the depth of my gratitude to Attorney Diana Figueroa, her paralegal Lydia, and the staff at The Figueroa Law Group. Together they comprise a competent, tenacious, thorough, and attentive law team which fights to obtain the most favorable outcome for their client.
Mrs. Figueroa is absolutely brilliant. Her knowledge of case law and ability to swiftly slash apart the arguments of opposing counsel with deft precision was impressive to observe. It was like watching Zorro in action—I was definitely glad she was on my side! Additionally, it was clear that Lydia had meticulously reviewed and summarized the vast amount of documentation involved in the case. Her attention to detail gave me confidence that she shared Mrs. Figueroa's interest for my case.
If you want a professional who will champion your case, I would highly recommend hiring Attorney Figueroa. Her experience, skill, and dedication are invaluable. She presented my case with integrity and fervor, and won more favorably than I could have imagined. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Diana, Lydia, and all the kind staff at Figueroa Law Group.

Mr. Hannan represented me in two family law cases. Both of those cases, though challengin, we won. I have worked with lawyers throughout my business, and personal life. His services were outstanding by comparison. He’s approachable and listens to the clients point of view, and then he works to make it happen.

I hired Diana Figueroa of The Figueroa Law Group, P.A. regarding serious family issues mid-summer of 2019. With the help of one of their very qualified attorneys, I was treated professionally with knowledge and care to the issues of concern. With continued updates and knowledge provided to me, I was very pleased with the lawyer and law firm. I am pleased to say that an agreement was reached with the opposing side.
Prior to the current hiring of this law firm, Diana Figueroa was hired as my lawyer for my divorce which was finalized in 2010.
Professionalism, knowledge, detail oriented and care to areas of concern are the qualities why I chose Diana Figueroa Law Firm.

I am happy that the Figueroa law firm represented me in a long overdue matter. We were successful and I am happy that my nightmare is behind me. I encourage future clients who hire the firm to let the firm do what you hired them to do. I literally sat back with full confidence that my situation was in good hands. Today I got my final order and my case is complete. You will not be disappointed.

I hired Diana's firm to represent me in a divorce settlement w/ child support. Her approach, recommendations and experience with other attorneys were instrumental in our successful outcome. As proof of providing her utmost dedication to your (as a future clilent) case, I can attest that she had arranged a hearing with the court days after Christmas and before New Years to settle my case (it was time sensitive). It was also her grandchild's birthday that day. You cannot ask for more dedication than that.

First I would like to thank my attorney Diana Figueroa for her time, her professionalism & knowledge of the process, for her caring & understanding, and most of all for making me feel like family. Without going into detail about my case and the hardships that I’ve been through, Ms. Figueroa has helped me every step of the way to get me through this difficult time. The entire staff are very smart, understanding and caring. Thank you Ms. Figueroa. Without you as my guardian angel, I do not know where my daughter, my son and myself would have been right now. God Bless.
