Family Law - Child Custody - DV Advocate Dedication, accuracy, knowledge and support. As a strong advocate myself for my children in an extremely in-depth and difficult situation, Ms. Jessica Kim took on a lot and walked me through it all with ease. I've had so many questions, and she was always there. The turnaround time was impeccable. I was in absolute shock with this type of dedication and accurate information provided which made our situation less stressful. Jessica isn't doing this as a "job" rather, a career of making sure her clients and their children are well represented to ensure their safety and well-being, as well as everything in between. Ms. Kim shows a great amount of knowledge and integrity as she works with her clients' personal situation and I can not thank her enough for representing my children and myself. Jessica - Your firm has been a turning point in our lives in every single way while taking into consideration the financial burden one could possibly encounter during these difficult situations. I would (and will continue to) recommend your firm to anyone walking in my shoes. Your heart and soul is in your career, and you're doing this for us that need and rely on someone like you for guidance and support. Again, I appreciate your assistance in everything you do. It does not go unnoticed. Thank you again.

Ms. Oney is a consummate professional and excellent attorney and advocate. I have had a lot of experience with family law attorneys and can say without hesitation, that Julie is the best I have ever dealt with. She is thorough. She knows the law. She can give case law. Further, she genuinely seems to care, without being overly emotional – which is how it should be. I was, and continue to be, very pleased with the outcome of my case. There was never an incident wherein I wasn’t impressed with her responses, strategy, or knowledge. She handled a Stipulation and Order for me – which came after an unfortunate Judgment and Decree. My only regret is not finding her earlier to handle my initial Custody proceedings. If you are looking for an advocate and attorney that will do an amazing job…look no further – Julie Oney is the one you need! UPDATE/ADDITION: Had to use Julie again for a Child Support matter and cannot say enough positive about her and her masterful handling of my matter - she stayed the course and made sure things were done in a way that was far beyond what I could have asked or imagined!

I’m so sorry to write a review super late Jessica! I’ve had a really busy for awhile. Without Jessica’s help, I can’t imagine myself now. Jessica always thought of me as a priority, knew exactly what she had to do, and was flexible to deal with depending on my situation. It was burdensome at first to be per hour, but she wrote and sent me an invoice detailing how she spent her time, and I think it’s more reasonable than any other lawyer I’ve been in contact with. Especially, I thought that I would have difficulty in language communication because I am a foreigner and English is my second language, but she was very considerate of me and helped me solve it whatever I said. You won’t regret choosing her. I highly recommend her. Thank you so much! You guys are amazing. And thank you for everything you've done for me

As an immigrant and non-native English speaker, for me, it was a challenge to find a lawyer who could guide me through this difficult journey. Jessica had the ability understand my cultural background and to develop a strong communication channel in a very short period of time. This was a key factor in my process of divorce. She was always on top of the situation and provide me the proper guidance and support along this process in a timely manner. I the future I will not hesitate to recommend her any friend or family member in need of assistance in family law.

I did go with Oney and Kim for my Divorce and I was not pleased with the the level of knowledge about my case or how my rights and wishes were advocated for at times. My case was in depth and complex including lengthy DV but EXTREMELY important information about my case was not known by my attorney so it was not brought up at hearing(s) and mediation(s). I was asked to find and identify specific medical evidence in my case that was sent to the lawyers months prior but I knew it far better than they did, even though I was advised to not do so by my mental health practitioners as reading about your own child's trauma can be very stressful. I did forward evidence attached to emails that was never even read or gone over. The evidence being attached to emails but not being read actually happened more than once. Records and significant evidence was not read. I would even get a text at night asking what page significant evidence was on as they didn't know or couldn't find it. There was poor communication about how the Divorce process worked and very little understanding for dealing with significant DV cases. I was advised very heavily to go against what I knew in my very soul was wrong and would not work. Turns out it took it took two months from them saying "case is done and settled" and was already not working to my instincts being spot on and receiving threatening texts and starting the entire abuse cycle over again. I was invalidated about my concerns when my ex was already not following court orders and now I am right back to going to the cops, feeling unsafe, and being told by PD to get an OFP when I was advised by Oney and Kim to sign away my safety during the divorce and had previous safety orders. I would never use this firm for any DV cases. There also seemed to be a long standing relationship with the court and GAL where there was more concern for that relationship with court officials, even ones who openly did not do their job or lied to the judge, than there was for me, the client they were supposed to advocate for. I did not feel advocated for. I did not feel believed as their client no matter how many hoops I jumped through and therapists I saw that per the court, county, GAL, etc. who said "PTSD", "Battered Woman", "PTSD with acute stress" and everyone wondering how my ex was not being held in contempt while my lawyers told me my concerns were "petty" for the court. Now I am right back where I started, in danger, but with no money for attorneys. Probably in a worse position then where I started as all of my "petty" concerns came to fruition. If someone is not following court orders while court officials are there, what in the world would make anyone believe they would follow them when the court officials and attorneys leave? - That was a "petty concern" that went from not following court orders to not allowing me to see or speak to the kids, threats and harassment, and all court orders being meaningless in less than 2 months. Would never hire again, ever.

These ladies are well versed and very professional! I won't trust anyone else!

Thank you Jessica for all of your hard work and dedication to me and my case. It was a very difficult time and you made the process pretty much painless for me. Without you it could have turned out very differently for me and my daughters.

Thank you Jessica for all your help through my difficult divorce. I had so many questions all the time and so many emotions and you were always understanding and very supportive. You and Julie are so comfortable to be around very easy going. I would recommend you to any of my friends in need of an excellent divorce Attourney. Thank you!!

Julie and Jessica are amazing! They work together as a team to ensure you are receiving the best possible representation. I have had several years of on again/off again legal needs as a result of my divorce and every single time they have been there for me with a quick response time, detailed legal arguments when going into court, and level-headed reassurance when I needed that "hand holding" to help keep myself calm during my multiple stressful situations. I have recommended them to several people going through issues with divorce and family court, and will continue to do so. If they cannot help or if something is not their area of expertise, they have provided recommendations to friends of mine on who can help them as well. They really are who you want in your corner.
