My brother hired this firm to handle his divorce. From the very beginning it was a bad decision. The first hearing was handled by an attorney in their office he had never even spoken to before, the guy showed up minutes before the hearing unprepared causing the need for another hearing. He then showed up at this hearing with all of the documentation needed to fix his original blunder, which by the way my brother paid for by needing to have another hearing which they charged him for. He proceeded thru this hearing and totally forgot to speak on one of the reasons he was there and the judge made her judgement leaving an order in place that should’ve never been. So another hearing was needed which again they charged him for. Time after time throughout the divorce they have dropped the ball, too many to list in this review. Long story shorter he ended up paying them over $30k and had a balance of $4k with an agreement he was paying. They decided to drop him as a client with less than a month to go before the final trial leaving him without an attorney knowing it would cost no less than $10k to get another. I’ve never been around a bigger group of blood sucking vultures in my life.

I hired attorney Kathleen Hessel to help me with a contempt hearing. From the start, Ms. Hessel was not looking out for my best interests. She did not offer concrete steps I could take. I had to require her to take my offers to the other side. I was able to do that myself. It was a complete waste of money for me to hire this law firm.

I recently navigated a challenging post-judgment contempt case, with high conflict. Attorney Ju's prompt responsiveness and swift courtroom actions protected my interests effectively. She demonstrates remarkable eloquence and professionalism, she is persuasive and powerful in court. Ultimately, she obtained a favorable outcome for me, and I will recommend her to anyone who has family law matters.

It's a stressful time going through a divorce so having Cecilia being very clear and concise with what's ahead, my options and possible outcomes was much appreciated. She was honest with the things I needed to hear and kept steering me down the right path. And she did everything in a very calming manner. Thank you.

I went to Anna VANG because I had ONLY AN APPEAL.... get this for a divorce which I was granted by the courts and THEN the COMMISSIONER turned around and CLOSED the DIVORCE!! NEEDLESS to say, I left that law firm who screwed up the divorce by failing to serve my ex. PROPERLY And I had to look for ANOTHER ATTORNEY who I thought COULD HELP!!! WELL, I met Anna once BEFORE court! On or around February 8th, 2024. But my HEARING was scheduled for February 27th! She appeared one TIME before the judge!!! I gave her 3500.00 for one appearance. WELL, IM STILL MARRIED!!! I WAS CRYING and screaming from the devastation after court!!! SHE LEFT ME in the conference room ALONE after the judges decision and walked OUT! I tried to contact her immediately for a game plan and she refused to Get on the phone and speak with me that day and the next day and the day after that! I havent SEEN her since this TIME! When I tried to call immediately after court, her assistant sent me a invoice BALANCE of almost 3000.00!!!!! AND Asked for MORE money (5000.00) to sign a new contract! At the SAME time sending an invoice BALANCE of ANOTHER almost 3000.00! A total cost of over six thousand dollars for less than a month's work and one court appearance!!!!!!!!! Totaling 6000.00 for NOTHING!!!!! The first law firm charged 3500 to 4500 For a year's work!!! Here, Ms. Vang is charging 6000 FOR 1 month And then invoiced me approximately another five thousand dollars to redo the entire marriage! IM suppose to work with someone who doesn't verbally talk to me and AVOID my call/s?? I called Anna after SHE left me ALONE and DEVASTATED in conference room when I calmed down and I tried to reach out to get a plan etc!!!!.. But she REFUSED to get on the phone! I haven't spoke to her since AND today is March 5th!!!!!! $3500 I paid her and she still wants an additional almost 3000 (balance).. Therefore, she decided to go to the judge and ask her for a judgment for the additional almost three thousand dollars!!!!! If that's not INSULT TO INJURY I don't know what is!!!!!!!!

I have been blessed to have Ms. Ju represent me in my divorce proceeding. Her ability to listen thoughtfully, assist me in making wise decisions and advocating for my settlement made this process easier. With an understanding of the effects of divorce upon children, she was able to construct clear language and a plan to move forward. I spoke to several attorneys before hiring and she was the perfect fit for what I needed. Divorce is hard. Having someone who is timely in communication, organized and graceful helped me through this difficult time.

Atty Kowalski and Atty Ju both have been absolutely outstanding in a most complicated case involving divorce and multiple businesses. A seemingly never ending process with so much information involved, was highly organized and utilized to make me rest assured during the entire process that I would be taken care of with the best advice & expertise on how to proceed and resolve each issue that kept arising during the divorce. Even with divorce finalized they still have followed through on other matters that have come up since then. I highly recommend!

I worked with Attorney Jacob Wiese for my divorce. He was great! Very caring, always responded to my emails and calls right away, and always kept me up to speed on every aspect of my case. Most importantly, he made sure that I understood everything, what my options were, how they would impact things, and always gave his honest opinion of what our plan of action should be. I couldn't be happier with my decision to work with Attorney Wiese. I have recommended Kowalski, Wilson, and Vang several times already and I will keep recommending them moving forward.

Attorney David Kowalski and the entire team at Kowalski, Wilson & Vang were instrumental in helping me navigate my divorce and custody battle, which lasted nearly two years. The divorce was extremely complicated, and without my first-class legal team, I would not have been able to receive a positive outcome for me and, most importantly, my son! David and the entire team fought for me daily during the divorce and continue supporting me in post-divorce matters. I highly recommend retaining the services of this firm.

I highly recommend attorneys Annabelle Vang and Cecilia Ju. They were simply outstanding in my case, and made a very challenging and emotional life change as straightforward and professional as one could ask for- thank you! Thank you also to Kathleen and Mellysa, who are so friendly and helpful. I always received quick responses and guidance when interacting with them- just a great team overall to work with.
