Todd came highly recommended to me by a friend and I’m so happy I was referred to him. He’s extremely responsive and was able to finalize my divorce in a few weeks, after it had been stalled for months with no communication with another attorney. He’s a true professional and really made me feel secure in knowing he had my back.

As a former military member I sought an attorney who could empathize with my particular needs. Someone who understands my perspective and shares similar life experiences. Without a doubt I made the very best choice possible. Todd and his capable staff handled my entire case with dignity and grace, leaving only the opposition wanting more.

If you're reading my review you are probably looking for a divorce attorney that can help you. I also read reviews and that's how I found Todd DeVallance. When I met Todd it was on a Sunday morning in the middle of summer when his building was closed and only security could unlock the doors the elevators needed to be started and the air conditioning was off. What impressed me was that Todd was not a 9-5 attorney who looked at my case to bill like inventory. The fact that meeting me on a weekend when most attorneys would wait till their next "business" day to meet you, impressed me. Through out my divorce Todd was there for me. My divorce was a very difficult one and my ex would play legal games running up my bill. He could financially afford to play these legal games and left me without funds to keep fighting. Most attorneys would have dropped me since I was unable to pay. Todd did not abandoned me and was able to convince a judge to grant us the money from my ex for my legal fees. These are just a couple of examples of Todd. There were many other positive things he did through out my case. I've been around other lawyers but they are not like Todd. He's always polite honest and I found him funny at times which you need a good laugh through a hard time in your life. I know that I will call Todd DeVallance if I need future legal help. I highly recommend him to you. I don't think he will disappoint.

Todd represented me as the petitioner in a divorce case that went to trial. We had a mutual goal for a reasonable settlement with my best interests in mind. He did an excellent job of representing me and my settlement was even better than what I expected. Todd has enough court experience to read cues from the judge & deliver an argument the way a judge wants to hear it. He didn't waste my time or the courts on trivial details that wouldn't impact the case or affect the judges ruling. Todd is considerate & genuine and I never felt that this was just another case to him. If you need a family law attorney I would highly recommend Todd & the TSAI Law Company.

So after hiring 2 previous lawyers I finally hired Todd. Now I know that there are lawyers and there are people like Todd DeVallance. Honest, prepared, insightful and confident top the list of many many wonderful things I can say. Best evidence of his talent is that he's got me as a client for life.

I have been having difficulties finding an attorney that does not have any conflicts with my case and Todd and his team have been very helpful reassuring me that there is not any conflicts with his firm.

Todd is great! He is smart, honest and reasonable. He never once promised me anything or told me stuff just because he knew it was what I wanted to hear. He actually told me the opposite of what I wanted to hear because he kept me informed on the law, and what he has experienced, which was appreciated. He was always very real with me. Todd and his assistant Marcus always kept me informed as to what was going on with my case and where we stood. It was a very long drawn out process, with multiple continuances before actually going to trial and they both made the situation as minimally stressful as possible and tried to keep my costs low. By the time we went to trial, I was very confident with our case and everything Todd and Marcus had prepared and we won everything I was asking for. Todd was a Rockstar in court and I was so happy to have him on my side! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a family attorney. He's personal and it shows. You won't be treated like just another customer, he treats you like a friend.

Todd took over my case after I had agreed to a very objectionable temporary parenting plan, having followed what turns out to be very bad advice from my previous attorney. Todd was very honest and straightforward regarding my chances of changing the temporary plan and the costs associated with this. He listened to my concerns with much attention and empathy. Unlike my previous attorney, he was not dismissive of my concerns regarding my daughter’s well being. In court, Todd was to the point, concise, efficient, and respectful of his time allocation, a point not lost on the magistrate. Todd was always very responsive, and kept in constant contact. I made several panicked calls to him and while he could not always call back right that moment, he would at a minimum send a quick email. It was very reassuring to receive an immediate response letting me know he would call me the following day to discuss my concerns. Todd is a very fair and scrupulous person, his integrity is uncompromising. I always trusted his advice without question. He was never one to mislead or give vague answers to make the case drag on, thus racking up higher fees. I will be eternally grateful to Todd for his hard work on my case! Thank you Todd, you were a lifesaver! MLR
