WARNING: simple divorce cost 38,000 dollars. Never went to court once. I was told I was family and would never hurt me. Well he did. My sister just passed away he did her final papers. My brother in law recommended him to me. I hired him for a certain amount of money but he decided to hand my case to another lawyer. Not telling me that she was going to charge me over 300.00 dollars an hour. There was many mistakes made many. I found out I was divorced from my kids. No call from my lawyer just and email that he charged me for but the email was way after the divorce was final. I have met with 4 lawyers who are sad that these kind of lawyers give them a bad name. Office staff will tell u he will be in the office today, a week later he will call u and say I was on vacation. Happens 6 times. Also he had 5 different people working on a divorce which means you pay all 5. Very unorganized overpriced lawyer. I would not recommend ANYONE to use this company. He didn't get anything for me other than the state law requires. Feeling ripped off taken advantage of. I stopped getting billing statements as soon as soon as he got a 40,000 lean against my home. He always said He would find out why no billing statements but of course never did. He made sure he used it all. Be very careful who u choose for a lawyer even if they say there family. Choose wisely!! Didn't finish my case the 38,000 did NOT cover the QDRO. Separation of retirement. Wanted a 1,000 to do it. Got it done for 300.00 by a respectable paralegal. If you need a lawyer call the BBB they will recommend you someone who will not RIP u off feeling defeated. Please choose wisely!!! Sterns and Sterns took a quarter of my earnings. Only got what the state law says so I could have hired anybody. Just beware!!!!! I also had a budget BUT he decided to stop billing me so he took off with my budget! Also paid to get my ex-husband's paychecks garnished and paid Ryan for it. I paid for it but it never happened. I will continue to tell people please call the BBB they will get you a lawyer and not take your money. Now that I have used Ryan and two other lawyers and a paralegal I know for sure that sterns and sterns over charged me by thoudands. I was told that $38,000 was way too much for what I got. Ryan made an agreement with me over the phone for a certain amount of money and decided to change All on his own. Please think about who you were hiring even if they say they are family look into their business find out not who they are as a person who they are as a businessman. I trusted him and so did my family but he has lost more respect than he will ever know. I just want people to be aware and know what they're getting and just because somebody says their family get it in writing. I tried to talk to Ryan and resolve this. He wouldn't budge he hardly had anything to say because he knew he was wrong. My new lawyer would have charged me at the very most $15,000. So just remember that when you go to look for a lawyer remember what Stearns and Stearns did to me and probably others too. Lawyers aren't rock stars! So years later I see all the charges I did not get sevice for. Beware call the BBB. Don't you think your lawyer would go over the divorce papers with you.? No no nothing he mailed me my divorce papers and never spoke to me about what I was getting. Also he never ever checked in to make sure my name was off the house loan. He really really screwed me over and if I were you I would not use him as a lawyer. Please look it up this lawyer has been disciplined by the licensing authorities. Look it up.

I have been working with Stearns Kim Stearns & Ryan for 6 months now. They have been a pleasure to work with.

Ryan, Loe and staff were wonderful during my very difficult divorce. They were there for me through all the questions and concerns. They definitely helped me reach a resolution and defended my position with compassion. Would recommend them to anyone!!

I can't say enough nice things about the lawyers at Stearns Kim & Stearns who helped me. I knew I couldn't afford a costly divorce, and they handled it beautifully. Ryan Stearns was really helpful in explaining to me how to get our property divided and support established, and even outlined a budget to get it done. He did explain to me that he couldn't guarantee staying on this budget, since litigation can be unpredictable, but I appreciated that he was upfront and honest about that. Fortunately they were able to keep my case on budget! I really liked how straightforward Mr. Stearns’ and his lawyers were, they were all so helpful! Loe Chaelee, one of the associates and who worked closely with me, was an absolute rock star!

The law office of Stearns/Kim/Stearns handles a lot of real estate matters for our office. They are very professional, experienced and knowledgeable. I’ve worked with Ryan Stearns for the past 6 years, he has been a pleasure to work with. All of the team members have been great to work with. Great job Team Stearns, Kim & Stearns!!!

Stuart Walker is generous with his time and kind . During my initial consultation he agreed to a conference call with my two adult children and myself. He spent time answering all of our questions. He was successful in negotiating a positive and timely outcome for me in a difficult divorce situation. He is truly a "human being" not the typical image of an aggressive lawyer. His office staff was sensitive and responsive to my needs during a very emotional time. He got the job done. A number one. Thank you Stuart.

I have been navigating my divorce without an attorney for the last few months and have attempted to get information over the phone from different attorneys from time to time. Then I found this Stewart Walker and even though I am not a client of his he has ALWAYS taken time out of his day to answer my questions over the phone. I appreciate that he is willing to help without demanding a consulting fee or asking for me to come into the office to meet him face to face and all of the information he has given me has been very useful. Thank you!

Stuart and his team helped me navigate through a domestic issue (TRO) with the attention to detail and professional knowledge required to not only layout my side of the argument, but also find the flaws in the case against me. They were quick to answer questions, and eased my concerns throughout the process. If you are fighting for yourself or a loved one, this team has the experience necessary and can be trusted.

I have known Mr Walker over 20 years. He has given me very useful advice and recently explained a different legal view to a legal problem I had. I was able to negotiate a reasonable settlement based on his assistance.

I have found Mr. Walker to be competent with a careful approach to representing his clients. When I have needed a consultation, his office has always made time for me. Last I feel his fee for service is more reasonable then many other law offices I contacted.

Damian has retired and moved back to Ireland. We'll miss ya

Mr. Nolan is an exceptional lawyer when he represented me with my family law case. Not only with the outcome of my case but with how he approached the matter. He gave me the confidence I needed to hear with all the doubts I was having prior to retaining a lawyer. I had the opposite suggestion from a different lawyer prior to consulting with Mr. Nolan, which further made my doubts about winning the case even greater. His no-nonsense aggressive approach was beneficial to my case and I could not even imagine how my case could be it it wasn't for Mr. Nolan. The entire staff was helpful, and was always there when I had questions. I am so glad I retained Mr. Nolan's firm for my family law case.

I called in to more then likely retain mr. Nolan . I couldnt even get past the assistan who says her name is Molly. I repeatedly explain I have a family law matter out of downtown Los Angeles. As such a sensative matter I think a personal assistant plays a key role when retaining an attorney.

I made an appointment with Mr. Nolan based on the good reviews he has. I showed up early one hour not expecting to be seen but the staff was great and friendly and Mr. Nolan saw me within 10 minutes of me getting there. I was in and out very quickly very pleased with the professionalism of the staff and Mr. Nolan. He was very friendly and honest. I highly recommend anybody looking for an attorney to pay him a visit.

Mr. Nolan is an excellent attorney. He is very honest and on point his team are also amazing. I'm very happy with the outcome of my custody case with my 4 kids. He is the attorney you want by your side. I wish i could give 10 stars Thank you to Mr. Nolan and your team

I hired Castellanos & Associates for a nasty custody case. My ex wanted to move from California with our daughter. Edwin and his staff went to work on my case with all hands-on deck, and I truly felt valued. Not only was I able to stop my daughter from leaving, but I was able to get a joint parenting plan. Along the way, I was kept informed and always felt that my case was a priority. I would highly recommend Castellanos & Associates and will continue to turn to them moving forward. Thanks so very much.

I had a very simple divorce matter that my husband decided to make more difficult and everyone in the firm went out of their way to help me, from giving me the best advice long before I retained their services to following through all the way to the end. Everyone to a person has been overly kind, considerate and helpful. I found the fees reasonable and even during this COVID 19 period, I appreciate the work and effort the law firm gives me. You would do exceptionally well if you retained this firm for your legal needs.

Amazing Service, Great Knowledge and Wisdom. Sincere and Trustworthy Service. Helpful Staff and Professional Advice. Thank you Castellanos & Associates for your superb service : )

I retained Castellanos & Associates in 2013. I was married for over 24 years. I had thought the case would be simple as we did not have any minor children. My husband had a good job and a pension. However, I was wrong. The case became very toxic. My ex hired a lawyer and wanted to fight about everything we owned, including not wanting to pay support. At one point, he told me that he wanted to leave me with nothing. Thank god for attorney Edwin Castellanos and his staff. They fought for me and made sure I received everything I was legally entitled to. My case lasted five years because my Husband would not settle and wanted to litigate everything. Mr. Castellanos has a very busy practice and is often in Court, but he explained that to me when I first hired him. I could have gone with another lawyer, but Mr. Castellanos was very patient with me and explained the entire process to me. I never felt that he had something else to do when he was with me. Even though my husband hired a very aggressive lawyer to intimidate me. I would say his lawyer was a loudmouth. Mr. Castellano's knowledge of family law won over the Judge. I found out through this case that it's not who is louder but smarter. I won my case because of the excellent work and preparation of Castellanos & Associates. Since my case ended, I have referred Edwin Castellanos to various friends and family, and I heard that they had received the same level of representation that I got. I wanted to write this review because I want other people going through the same thing I went through to get the best possible legal representation I got. I recommend entirely Castellanos & Associates.

Castellanos & Associates represented me in my divorce case. I worked primarily with Edwin Castellanos. His calm and empathetic demeanor throughout the entire process made him a pleasure to work with. I found Edwin to be easily accessible, and he would always respond to me as soon as possible. When he was in Court, I could always count on speaking with another member of his staff that was equally knowledgeable about my case. Castellanos & Associates were professional yet sensitive to the emotions surrounding my divorce. I am thankful to Edwin and his team and appreciate their work, and will certainly recommend his legal services without reservation.

Mr. Karney by far was the only person i spoke to that managed to calm me way down really fast and not only told me but showed the ways he would get my daughter back in 3 days. And HE DID JST THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS BACK HOME IN. 3 DAYS i dnt knw what i would have done if i handt found mr. Karney and Homar hes been reliable and completely in control of the entire case i am truly grateful to these 2 individuals like i cant evwn describe. The receptions is extreamly kind and comprehensive aswell . by far the best decision i ever made and worth every dollar. Without a dought

I am so glad I found Mark H. Karney and his team! I was about to hire another lawyer for my divorce and just before I signed that contract I decided to get another opinion and I'm SO glad I did. After speaking with Mark and his wonderful paralegal Tristina I realized I almost made a huge mistake. I found out because I was married for a short time and we were amicable, we could get a dissolution instead of a divorce. An important distinction the other local law firm didn't tell me - even though they knew all the same details. This saved me over $4,000. Mark & Tristina were honest, helpful, and responsive. And they treated my case with care. They answered all my questions, and even went above and beyond in helping me get paperwork I needed when I was purchasing a home. The genuinely cared about helping me secure my home and I couldn't be more grateful.

I was a client of Fernandez & Karney, whom worked tirelessly to settle my case. Please be aware that divorce brings out the worst in people and there are reviews here that are purely acts of revenge (ie, not from actual clients). I will try to be brief, but know that there's no way I can summarize all the things I'm happy about with regards to this firm! First, here's my advice on deciding on a family law firm: decide if you need a lot of attention/hand holding or if you're comfortable with a team approach. There are pros/cons to both. F&K is going to be a team approach, you will not deal with just one main attorney and their assistant/associate. But, F&K's team approach is more cost effective and I liked having multiple view points. I think this is where people get confused when dealing with a firm like F&K, you have to be flexible and know your case- no one is going to hold your hand the whole time, but you can choose to spend a lot more money for that kind of assistance. Their approach worked well for me, but might not be for everyone. Now, here's a little about the specifics of my case. I tried to settle all issues outside of court, but unfortunately my ex was set to fight on every matter. So, I had issues with every aspect of my divorce: support, child custody, division of assets and property, etc. Throughout the entire process, F&K faced much adversity, aggression and gaslighting from my ex. They were always professional, stood their ground, were ready with sound advice and fought very hard for my case. My case was extremely difficult and F&K was a rock of support! In the end, my settlement was good and bad. But this is what to expect when you're dealing with the uncertainty of the legal system- nothing is black and white, you must make concessions in order to move on with your life.

Go elsewhere for legal representation.

Most of society can go their whole lives without needing an attorney; family matters result in unexpected moments in court and it's in your BEST interest to be thorough in your search for representation. I vetted at least three attorneys and even then hired/fired the first one (different firm). After a bumpy start I struck gold when I had my consult with Steven Fernandez of Fernandez and Karney. Steven's intricate knowledge of family law and his readiness with solutions gave me a sense of support and protection that you are suppose to feel when hiring an attorney. Steven felt that an attorney on his team, Jean Kim, would be a perfect fit and YES...she was. Jean Kim is a listener, legal scholar, and court navigator with an amazing ability to activate. Jean is not only super knowledgeable about the infinite avenues/detours of family law; Jean makes it a priority to know the facts and details of your situation like she knows the law. Why is this important? In real-time, court has so many unexpected moments; but with an attorney like Jean...It didn't matter because she was ready to activate and SHE DID! Thank you Jean and thanks Steven for having amazing talent on your team! And did I mention I live in another state...Jean Kim is awesome!

I have always believed in giving credit where it is due. I must say that hands down, Michael Nathans is certainly a top notch Family Law Attorney. He is very passionate, professional, experienced and extremely skilled at what he does. His counsel and expertise have proven to be so very valuable. Anyone who has found themselves facing divorce knows that it is one of the most difficult, devastating, confusing times of your life. Having an attorney that I can talk to, one of such high caliber helping me to navigate through these rough waters has allowed me to breathe and sleep a little easier. My case has been a very difficult one and Attorney Michael Nathans has been with me every step of the way. I am very grateful for all of the hard work that he and his amazing staff have done and for all of the victories we've had. If you are looking for the very best , Attorney Michael Nathans is it......The Very Best !!!

My story is quite simple but serves as a cautionary tale for all single parents going through legal difficulties within the family law system. Five years ago, I was advised to seek mediation services as I was going through divorce proceedings. The advice I received was to be a 'nice guy', work with the other parent in order to resolve issues, create a mutually fair court order and seek child development services from third parties. But, after going down that road for many years and realizing that my father's rights were being trampled upon and outright ignored, I finally had enough and decided to seek the services of Michael Nathans. My results may be an outlier, but within 8 weeks, we had a court date, documents prepared, forms filed and everything finalized. I was able to obtain 50-50 custody of my son along with resolving many issues that had previously been ignored. We now had a signed court order that was fair and I attribute this amazing outcome solely to Michael's hard work, diligence, tremendous speed and work ethic. After availing myself of his services, I realized that I had made a mistake previously (with the other mediator). My son and I wasted many years of our lives trying to seek a fair outcome. Michael proved to be a STRONG advocate for me and fought hard for my rights. Therefore, if you're in the same boat and find yourself with seemingly insurmountable issues, hire Mr. Nathans ASAP and don't make the same mistake I did long ago. You will not be disappointed !!!

I hired Michael about 2 years ago, even though he is on the pricey side it was money well spent! While working with Michael it was obvious he is confident and determined to conquer each case. In addition, his office is clean and his staff is welcoming and professional. I definitely will not think twice about hiring Michael again. Thank you Michael and staff for your hard work! *HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!* -Maricela H.

This man saved my life. If I had 1,000,000.00 I wouldn't heir anyone else to represent me. Michael makes it happen. Love you Michael for the amazing attorney you are. Thanks for everythingyou have done for my son and I

Michael is no doubt an exceptionally brilliant and highly skilled lawyer that I have came across. The way he leads the case in the court is truly impressive. His strategy on each aspect of the case is crystal clear and his execution plan focuses on meeting all the client needs. He doesn’t leave any minute details and bring up solid arguments throughout the trial to prove his point. I do like his strategy of bringing up out of the box ideas and thinking beyond the case to find out more information which we never thought of before. He has been very much involved with us and set the right focus for us that helped us to do better prepare for the case. I don’t have any doubt that if we did not have Michael’s support we would have been very unlucky. He opened totally new dimensions for us in a marriage annulment case that he fought for us. He led the case very strongly from the beginning in an efficient, strategic and calculated manner. Not only he worked out several options with us to proceed but also guided us how the case can be settled out of the court. His command in the court and approach towards opposite counsel was phenomenal. He not only understands the dynamics of the case but also the psychology of opposite party and acts accordingly. He is well aware of all the emotional aspects and its outcomes in the trial while at the same time he knows how to tackle and elaborate what is normally overlooked. We are still waiting for the final decision in our case, but we are very happy that we made a sound decision to hire him. The efforts he put in our case and his passion to win is what impressed us the most. He never sits idle for few minutes and doesn’t take things lightly and fight as hard as possible till the end. We have learned a lot while working with him especially what to look for if you are planning to hire the best lawyer for your case. Michael is a very nice individual too and an easy to work with person who is always approachable and ready to help you out. I would definitely hire him again if needed and he will be my only recommendation to someone looking for a lawyer to represent him/her in civil court.

I was referred to Provinziano & Associates by my family lawyer here in Arizona because of their expertise in jurisdiction. Me and my ex had an informal written agreement that our kids would live with me in AZ through the school year and visit him in CA on school breaks. On spring break of this year, my ex did not put my kids back on the plane home and ghosted me for 2 days. Because of jurisdictional issues, I needed a CA attorney to represent me and make the case that my kids are residents of AZ so we could have our case here. My lawyer, Al; and his paralegal Ava have made my life easier knowing that my case was in such great hands. They are professional, responsive, and so far everything has gone in our favor. I would highly recommend them in any custody or jurisdictional case. I wish I could have them represent me here in AZ for the remainder of my case! They do cost a bit more than I was financially ready for, but I could never put a price on the peace of mind they provided and exceptional results we got. They are working with me on that front as well, and I couldn’t rate them highly enough. Thank you Al, Ava, and the whole team for all of your hard work!

I have known Al Provinziano for over 8 years. He is someone who is kind, consistent, and dependable. In both his professional and personal life, he works hard to give his best effort in all he does. Recently, a friend of mine was in need of an attorney who could handle a very difficult divorce and custody case. Without hesitation, I gave my friend Al's contact information. I knew that he would work tirelessly on her behalf, offer sound legal counsel, and that he would be someone who actually cares about her situation. Al truly is the best of the best!

Al is a friend and I have worked with he and his wife for years in business. They are amazing people! I recently needed a very important referral relative to Family Law. Al was super responsive and caring and gave us a great resource. He went above and beyond and offered some very important recommendations for the issues at hand. Many thanks again Al!

When I began my search for a family law attorney, I quickly learned that not all attorneys are competent in their area of practice. Al Provinziano was the only attorney whom I trusted with confidence because his competence and experience puts him in a different class of family law firms. Al’s professional advocacy is stellar, and his team is most empathetic and responsive. I especially appreciated that he kept things from turning ugly and protected me from emotional distress. He truly has made a difference for my family by helping me receive the college funds that I was owed through child support payments. I recommend Provinziano & Associates without an ounce of reservation!

As I was looking for an attorney to represent me in obtaining permanent guardianship of my grandsons, God lead me to the office of Alphonse Provinziano! Alphonse’s compassion and commitment to my case surpassed my expectations . On Christmas Day I had ran into an issue and Alphonse took the time to personally call me back. As we spoke, he reassured me that all would be fine. Alphonse Provinziano has a wonderful team of professionals working by his side. June, Alexis, and Kaiko. And although, these legal situations are extremely stressful, Alphonse and his team made the process less stressful. His expertise in family matters is key to a successful outcome. I highly recommend him. Always grateful, D. Rangel

We may not be happy with our outcome but I can not hold this firm at fault. I am thankful for Mrs Wong and the firm. I know the system was against us from the gate and you did your best... Thank you guys for your effort and also for straightening out the charges. My wife and I appreciate it . We wish your firm all the best and will recommend others to you. You were all extremely pleasant people. Thank you and God bless

Charlene Wong represented me in my child support case at Claery & Hammond, LLP, and I am very pleased with her work. In addition to being sympathetic, Charlene was also very professional. Throughout the case, she always kept me updated on the case and answered all my questions. Even when she was not available, her colleague Timothy McArdle was very professional and made me feel like I was the highest priority. Brianda Edwards, the paralegal, was also excellent. It is recommended that you utilize this law firm.

From the beginning and through two years in the court system, dealing with delays with Covid-19 the Claery & Hammond Law Firm was there all the way. Attorney Medill work with me and presented different approaches to succeed in winning the case. Attorney Joel Acuario presented the case at trial. Outstanding attorney when it came down to the issue at hand. Just want to thank everyone at the Claery & Hammond Law Firm.

I found Claery and Hammon law firm when I was searching for a divorce attorney online. During the initial phone consultation, Mr. Claery help me feel at ease, and assured me that his firm would do their very best. My representing attorney was Joel Acuario. From the very beginning, I felt his compassion and sincerity in his representation. Their office staff, Brianna, Teresa were very professional and kept informed of all filings and court dates. I definitely recommend this firm for representation.

Rebecca was my attorney. Really great attorney she helped me to stay grounded with my situation. She was even my in between person. Thank you for make me feel protected and defending me.

Thank you Terry for helping me during my divorce as it was one of the hardest things for me. Because you took the time to listen to my case you handled my divorce in the best manner possible. Not only did you look out for me but you also looked out for my children. Thank you for being the wonderful person you are and a great attorney. The twins and I love you

She is very attentive, very professional, and very caring. You hear all these scary stories about attorneys being soulless creatures. Teresa crushes all those rumors. She listens to every concern you have and tries her best to get it done in a timely manor. I even received calls and emails over the weekend from her so she can get things done. She’s worth every penny.

Teresa Beyers handled my divorce and child custody case and i received everything i was asking for. I appreciated the extra attention and how she explained everything to me in a simple way so i would understand it. Highly recommend! Bruce M Soto

Terry Beyers was so compassionate in my sensitive case. I'm sure she has heard so many stories but listensed to my story as if it was her first time hearing about my type of case. When I had questions and contacted her by text, she would respond rapidly. I highly recommend her.

Mrs Beyers is the rarity in Family Law. She does not over reach and tells the truth about a massively broken system. She puts children first, and tries to get both sides to get to their separate futures. My divorce was a worst case scenario, and Mrs Beyers was brought in on limited scope to salvage what was gross misconduct by all against her client. She guided me (the father) to the places i need to be and is retained for support matters. As it only takes one to make a nasty divorce and my ex is that one.
