Shelley made me feel so supported during my divorce. She kept me informed through the process. Shelley was quick to reply to questions via email. I was able to schedule meetings with her without much of a wait time. Every time I met with Shelley she quickly calmed my anxiety.

What can I say Miss Akamatsu was always there returned my calls answered any questions and in my opinion went above and beyond any lawyer I’ve had to deal with in the past not only do I can sitter her an outstanding divorce attorney, but someone I’d like to consider a friend even after my case was resolved she keeps in touch with me oh and I would recommend her to anybody going through a divorce especially for guys because in my opinion I feel a woman divorce attorney Will fight for you a little more than a man that’s just my opinion she was able to help me keep my boat keep my trailer and all those credit cards my ex-wife ran up she was responsible for him although we were married and I was a co-whatever outstanding attorney 1 million thumbs up.

Shelley was amazing to work with. She is both professional and personable at the same time. I went through a nasty divorce and she helped me navigate the whole process. I was in a position of little recourse. Shelley worked to protect me both financially and emotionally. It was the toughest time of my life, but I came through it with dignity. I can never thank her enough.

Shelley is incredible; she has helped me in an extremely high conflict divorce with a very, very difficult ex-spouse. She kept things on track, helped with sound strategy, was active and involved in my case, she remembered small details. She was responsive throughout the process, one time excusing herself from a tennis game to remind me of something after business hours, she responded to emails over the holidays, consistently going above and beyond what I'd expect her to do. I hope I never need another family law attorney, but if I do, I will use Shelley

Shelly was recommended to me by another attorney. Unfortunately, my husband and I were in the middle of our custody case and a trial date was already set on a day she wasn’t available. However, she spoke with me on the phone for 15 minutes and gave me SO MUCH helpful information. She didn’t have to do that. She gave me the ins and outs of who she would recommended for our specific situation. By the end of our call I felt so confident! I was just disappointed that she couldn’t be our attorney because she was so upbeat and awesome! Thanks to her we found an attorney that has been so incredibly helpful to us and is a night and day difference from our previous law firm. Thank you Shelly!

Shelley was communicative and thorough with her explanation of the entire process. When there was an unexpected delay, she continued to escalate through the system until she got to the bottom of situation. Her pricing is fair and transparent.

My experience with Shelley from the first meeting till the end is exceptional! She is knowledgable, professional, and truly CARES. There were a few very difficult moments dealing with high-conflict situations and she was always right there supporting me and, most of all, she gets to job done very effectively and professionally without wasting any time or money.

Shelley made what is usually an unpleasant experience easy! Great communication, very timely, and very professional. I highly recommend her services!

We hired Shelley for custody case. She was extremely communicative, committed , and more importantly she has integrity that goes beyond what you hope for in a lawyer. We were looking for full custody of my step-daughter and she went above and beyond to make it happen. We are grateful that we had Shelley on our side to protect my step-daughter. We would hire Shelley again in a heartbeat!

Shelley was referred to me to assist with a child support modification. She was very thorough and able to direct me through the process in a diplomatic and kind way. She executed in an efficient way and did not waste my time or money. I appreciated her expertise and ability to get the job done without any drama or costing me more money. Thank you!

Shelley is wonderful. From the first phone conversation, to the end of my journey and everything in between. I felt like she truly cared and had my best interests in mind. She is patient, knowledgeable, and more than helpful

Shelley from start to finish was prompt, easy to work with, and on top of what I needed. She was able to give me a lot of choices that I wouldn’t have considered otherwise and truly listened to what I needed and wanted. She also allowed me to go about the divorce process on my own time, which allowed me to process things at my own pace. I highly recommend Shelley - I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
