Extremely empathetic; obviously genuinely cares and not out to just make a buck. Very affordable consultation, and he allowed well over the allocated time in my situation, as he could tell I was in a dark place.

I was in need of some recommendations in the area of which I wasn’t familiar with. Mathew was extremely helpful and attentive to the details of which I was searching. Anyone this helpful without receiving anything in return in a blessing in today’s society. I would highly recommend them.

The attorney i spoke with was very helpful. I would definitely encourage others to use this service. Jacquel R.

We used Lawgena for a Parenting Plan and Child Support Order in Superior Court that were years overdue in a very high conflict and complicated baseline social setting. Having a plan in place is a relief and the Spanish interpretation available was one of the main criteria we used in finding an attorney. They were very helpful!

Matthew was extremely helpful in many different ways. He talked to me about my custody case for over an hour and referred me to a lawyer local to my case. I've called so many lawyers and a large portion of them never even get back to me. Reaching him was easy and he volunteered over an hour just to understanding my case!

Veronica was recommended to me through a close friend, at a time when I was at my lowest. I'd just been assaulted by my husband of nearly 20 years, who was/is a complete textbook covert narcissist. As soon as we met for the consultation I just knew I was in good hands and that Veronica would fight the good fight for me in my divorce. It was a grueling 12+ months but through the whole thing Veronica never lost sight of our goals and in the end I got what was fair and just. I truly believe I would not have gotten the outcome we did had I hired another attorney.

I was recommended Veronica and her firm by a friend of the family. My soon to be ex-husband is a very challenging person to work with and my number 1 goal through the entire process was to do what is fair and what is right. I appreciate that Veronica and her firm helped to support me in those desires while protecting me from being bullied by my ex. They helped me not only navigate through the divorce and mediation process, but also helped with communications with the ex when he was less than appropriate on numerous occasions. They helped remind me that the boundaries I had set around my children were not only fair, they were just and that he needed to respect those boundaries. I also used Fierce to describe this group because while my case was settled it mediation, it was clear they knew when and where to be fierce and that is what you want when someone is advocating for your rights and the rights of your children. Should this have gone to trial, I have no doubt that Veronica and her team would have been nothing short of phenomenal. I worked a lot with Amy in dealing with various correspondence with my ex and she was truly amazing. While I feel for anyone reading this review in need of a lawyer, I could not recommend Veronica and her team more.

Honest, Hard Working, Caring and Fair. 5.0 stars Posted by Robert August 30, 2020 Thank You for handling my divorce / Case. You told me not to worry and that I was in good hands and your words became true. I appreciate the amazing professionalism of the whole team. Michael is not only an outstanding lawyer but was such a quality and nice person to work with. Even though you handle issues of tremendous gravity on a daily basis, everyone was so compassionate and caring and helpful. I felt your service was amazing, demonstrated a high level of professional integrity, and was reasonable and fair. My experience with you, Michael, Amy, Beth, Christopher , Valerie, and Silinda was outstanding -- I hope to not ever go through the experience again but you and everyone associated with V. Fretas law will be at the top of my list of recommendations when and if my friends find themselves in similar situations. Again, I just want to say -- Thank You ,

Veronica Freitas and her team went above and beyond to fight for me in a custody case to insure my son resided with me, his Mom. She is an excellent listener, articulate, thoughtful, and compassionate. Her paralegal, Amy, touched base with me daily and helped me navigate through an extremely emotional & stressful case. She made sure I had all of the valuable & necessary information needed to win my case. When the opposing lawyer attempted to bend the laws in their favor, she was quick to point out the inadequacies in their argument and poked many holes in their case. As a result, the case was dismissed. Veronica and her team continue to check on me and my son and our safety even though the case has ended. What a blessing to have this thoughtful, astute, and powerful force on my side. I am eternally grateful to have found her during one of the most difficult, stressful, & gut wrenching times in my life. I highly recommend VFreitas law if you want to feel properly guided & protected!

I changed over to Veronica midstream in my divorce. I'm so glad I did! Having her in my corner made a huge difference!

I have known David Huber almost 20 years, professionally and personally. He was the clear choice to represent my interests when I divorced in 2010. My then wife and I had been married over 30 years; and had lived together for eight years prior to that. We had two adult children and a somewhat complicated estate of community and separate properties. I wanted a fair, equitable and friendly outcome. Unfortunately, my former wife engaged an attorney to represent her interests that was not interested in a fair, equitable or friendly outcome. David’s even and principled representation was able to neutralize the vitriol of opposing counsel while remaining a strong and persuasive advocate on behalf of that ‘fair and equitable’ outcome. David and I both understood that the problem was not primarily my wife … and after 18 months of discovery (of questionable good faith), David was able to persuade opposing counsel that no assets were being hidden. From that point we were able to proceed to a formal mediation process which resolved in one day. On both a professional and personal level, David was a superb lawyer and counselor. He was always prepared. He communicated well the different perspectives of each issue before making his recommendation … and then accepted whatever decision I ultimately made. He shielded me effectively against difficult opposing counsel. He advocated for and so allowed a fair and equitable outcome to occur. Friendly even. My highest recommendation.

I would without any reservation recommend David T Huber for any family law matter. No one gets married and expects to get divorced - but the reality is it happens. My situation was unique as all cases are I was scared and anxious. I was luckily recommended to David by another attorney. David and his assistant Joy were compassionate, experienced, understanding , communicated wonderfully, had great rapport with me and also mentored me in a way - they taught me to give myself credit and strength. My situation involved children , protection orders and forensic psychology - they were so great and kept my case from going to trial. I felt they empowered me. I have nothing but high praise.

David was highly recommended by 2 different people for my divorce which included a messy situation with a business that we owned together. Through difficult and challenging negotiations my ex and I were able to end up on the same page with me owning the family business. David listened well and understood that I wanted only what was fair for both of us.The worst time of my life is now complete after my divorce was handled professionally and gracefully.I now highly recommend David to others looking for excellent representation with integrity.

Mimi was a fantastic resource for my wife and I during our divorce. I really liked how she was able to answer any questions either of us had during the process, and how meticulous she was in regards to details. She was really understanding and patient in the beginning when we were not sure what we wanted to do, and were just trying to understand our options. I highly recommend her.

Before filing for divorce, I spoke with about a dozen attorneys in the area. I felt like some said what they thought I wanted to hear, while others seemed almost disinterested. After narrowing it down to a few, I chose Michelle Danley from Seattle Divorce Services because I felt like she was an excellent listener, and gave me her unbiased thoughts instead of saying things to land a new client. My case was complex, not for the finances/assets, but because of a parental rights dispute. Michelle and her team gave me excellent representation. While I no doubt am bias because of our success, I'd like to think that even if we had been less successful, that I would still appreciate her efforts and high-quality work. Besides that, Michelle was great at managing someone (me) who was dealing with a difficult situation. She was kind and professional. Her communications were excellent; she responded quickly to my inquiries and promptly passed on information from the courts and opposing counsel. I myself am a licensed attorney, and while I am not an expert in family law, I felt that her work could not have been better. I think that there are many types of family law attorneys out there. There are some who will guide you and make decisions for you (with your consent) if you are not in a good state of mind to decide. There are others who will do what you ask even when that may not be in your best interest. Michelle is someone who will tell you what she thinks, and will discuss the options with you. She is willing to make recommendations as well, but ultimately, she will inform you as best she can then will leave it up to you to decide. That is exactly what I was looking for, and if it is what you need, you may want to consider talking to her. I could not recommend her more highly.

I worked with Mark Alexander on my divorce. I hired him as my pro se attorney while doing most of the paperwork and legwork myself. His calm demeanor and knowledge about maneuvering the legal system and not allowing me to give up my rights and desires was invaluable. He was especially helpful guiding me through the online court system for submissions and locating progress reports. Mark was so professional and retained a personal touch throughout this painful journey.

When I first met Mimi I was a mess. I was in a very mentally fragile state and had a hard time focusing. I was in a Divorce that had really taken a toll on me and I was ready to just walk away from it all. Mimi gave me hope and was able to help me through a process I did not think I had the strength to get through. In the end she was able to get me a fair settlement. Actually about 10x what I was originally asking for. She helped me see what I thought I should get was actually not what she thought I deserved. Mimi could not have been more professional. She always returned emails and calls promptly. I do not believe you could put your trust in a better person through this tough process. She helped ease me into arbitration a process I did not think I was up to either. I could not really put into words how much she did for me. Not just coming out with a great settlement but a stronger person too. I will forever be grateful for all Mimi and Seattle Divorce Services did for me. Shad Coughlin

I just wrapped my divorce process and worked with Janel Ostrem at Seattle Divorce Services for it. I am incredibly pleased with the outcome, the representation I received, and the entire process along the way. We settled via mediation, and Janel was able to flex on both collaborative style and, when it was needed, being litigious. She was incredibly efficient, which was great in that it kept my costs down. Best, though, she was able to get me and keep me focused on the right 'bigger picture' issues, which at times was a challenge for me in getting caught up in the moment and the immediate issue or argument at hand. In the end, that was critical in getting me to a positive, cost-effective settlement. I highly recommend Janel and SDS and would be happy to share more of my experiences if it would be helpful to anyone evaluating and choosing a divorce lawyer.

Mitchell Polonsky helped me resolve a difficult modified parenting plan with my ex husband. He was professional, always available to answer any questions I had, he heard my wants/needs and communicated them to the other party without hesitation. He gave me advice but still respected my wishes, and took a lot of stress off of me throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Mitchell as an attorney, he definitely works for his clients to get them the best results for their family.

Let me 1st start out by saying, if you are reading reviews and having a terrible time deciding who is going to help you at one of the worst times in your life. Just stop reading and call. From start to Finish, there is no doubt I would hire them back in a heartbeat. From working with Ken, getting questions answered at no cost, when it became apparent my then wife had hired a lawyer (even though she had pinky promised me she wouldn’t) I had called Ken and I was in a bad place I had just been served papers at my place of employment, he told me not to worry and he had someone to help me out. That is when I received an email and a follow up phone call from my new Lawyer Mitchell Polonsky within that same day. After asking me some basic questions about myself and the situation, he was able put my mind at ease. My wife hired the Lawyer with a reputation for blood. Mitch made it clear it didn’t matter who she had hired. He was going to do everything in his power to make things as fair as possible while minimizing the cost on myself and the exposure to my children (by making it as clean and quick as possible). My Ex wasn’t being fair, not dropping the kids off in the location agreed on, not letting me talk to them on the phone during a critical time in their lives and threatening to withhold them. I informed Mitch and He got to work that same day. It was night and day difference once he emailed her lawyer. That alone was worth the money, but there was still a divorce I had to finish up. Mitch was extremely responsive when it came to emails and phone calls. My Ex-wife and I would both have the same questions for our attorneys and most of the time it would take her lawyer a week to get back. But not Mitch, it was always the same day and typically within hours. It got to the point where I was able to give the Ex an answer before her attorney would even open her emails. (Again; that alone was worth the money) I understand every situation is different, but with Mitch on my side I was able to get 50/50 custody of my 2 boys, pay No spousal support and even kept her away from my retirement. As far as divorce goes I would consider it a win. Thank you Mitch, for everything.

Great firm, I worked with Mitch who was on top of my case and got the results I wanted. Definitely recommend this firm and Mitch himself to take care of anyone’s divorce situation.

I was 6 months into my divorce proceedings and parted ways with my initial attorney from another law firm. I heard about Goldberg Jones through a work colleague. After talking with Ken he paired me up with Gregg Morphew. I’m active duty military and Gregg had experience working with veterans and he also served in the Army. Right from the start Gregg recognized what was missing in my case and made an immediate impact. His reputation among his peers was obvious and I felt I was getting the solid representation I desperately needed. I highly recommend Goldberg Jones and Attorney Gregg Morphew for any father going through a divorce. For those in the military I have yet to see a more diligent and knowledgeable attorney on all things JAG related than Attorney Morphew.

I can't imagine the circumstances in which a divorce could be anything but an unpleasant experience, but having Goldberg Jones - Divorce for Men to guide me through the process has been an extraordinary help and comfort. I have been working with Kenneth Alan and found him to be not only professional and knowledgeable, but also very personable. I have found that Mr. Alan's approach has a calming effect, which faces the matters at hand directly yet avoids stirring up any negative feelings or rancor. Very matter of fact. This approach particularly suited me because even though I am facing this divorce from my wife, I do not hate her nor do I wish her ill will, but I do want to protect myself in the process. I have found that Mr. Alan strikes the perfect balance to satisfy all sides of my goals and intentions. I am very grateful to have found him & Goldberg Jones - Divorce for Men.

From working with Ken, getting questions answered at no cost, when it became apparent my then wife had hired a lawyer (even though she had pinky promised me she wouldn’t) I had called Ken and I was in a bad place I had just been served papers at my place of employment, he told me not to worry and he had someone to help me out. That is when I received an email and a follow up phone call from my new Lawyer Mitchell Polonsky within that same day. After asking me some basic questions about myself and the situation, he was able put my mind at ease. My wife hired the Lawyer with a reputation for blood. Mitch made it clear it didn’t matter who she had hired. He was going to do everything in his power to make things as fair as possible while minimizing the cost on myself and the exposure to my children (by making it as clean and quick as possible). My Ex wasn’t being fair, not dropping the kids off in the location agreed on, not letting me talk to them on the phone during a critical time in their lives and threatening to withhold them. I informed Mitch and He got to work that same day. It was night and day difference once he emailed her lawyer. That alone was worth the money, but there was still a divorce I had to finish up. Mitch was extremely responsive when it came to emails and phone calls. My Ex-wife and I would both have the same questions for our attorneys and most of the time it would take her lawyer a week to get back. But not Mitch, it was always the same day and typically within hours. It got to the point where I was able to give the Ex an answer before her attorney would even open her emails. (Again; that alone was worth the money) I understand every situation is different, but with Mitch on my side I was able to get 50/50 custody of my 2 boys, pay No spousal support and even kept her away from my retirement. As far as divorce goes I would consider it a win. Thank you Mitch, for everything.

    Great firm, I worked with Mitch who was on top of my case and got the results I wanted. Definitely recommend this firm and Mitch himself to take care of anyone’s divorce situation.

    I was 6 months into my divorce proceedings and parted ways with my initial attorney from another law firm. I heard about Goldberg Jones through a work colleague. After talking with Ken he paired me up with Gregg Morphew. I’m active duty military and Gregg had experience working with veterans and he also served in the Army. Right from the start Gregg recognized what was missing in my case and made an immediate impact. His reputation among his peers was obvious and I felt I was getting the solid representation I desperately needed. I highly recommend Goldberg Jones and Attorney Gregg Morphew for any father going through a divorce. For those in the military I have yet to see a more diligent and knowledgeable attorney on all things JAG related than Attorney Morphew.

    I can't imagine the circumstances in which a divorce could be anything but an unpleasant experience, but having Goldberg Jones - Divorce for Men to guide me through the process has been an extraordinary help and comfort. I have been working with Kenneth Alan and found him to be not only professional and knowledgeable, but also very personable. I have found that Mr. Alan's approach has a calming effect, which faces the matters at hand directly yet avoids stirring up any negative feelings or rancor. Very matter of fact. This approach particularly suited me because even though I am facing this divorce from my wife, I do not hate her nor do I wish her ill will, but I do want to protect myself in the process. I have found that Mr. Alan strikes the perfect balance to satisfy all sides of my goals and intentions. I am very grateful to have found him & Goldberg Jones - Divorce for Men.

Mark Weiss came highly recommended by friends, marriage counselors, and other attorneys. I interviewed several attorneys, beginning with Mark. I read as much as I could about collaborative divorce, including the blog and general information on his extremely comprehensive website. From the first time I met Mark, I felt I could trust him. I’ve never hired a divorce lawyer before; I felt that if he couldn’t help me, he would direct me toward someone who could. It was my good fortune to be selected as his client. Mark is knowledgeable, patient, methodical, honest, straightforward, compassionate, and wise. He was not condescending and never rushed me through any meeting. He made sure I understood everything I read, heard, and signed. He answered all my phone calls and emails in a timely manner. His calm and quietly effective demeanor showed me he valued my opinions, respected my intellect, and was committed to ensuring that we reached a reasonable and equitable settlement. Mark and the collaborative team guided me through the most difficult year of my life. With their help and wise counsel, I feel hopeful as I move forward toward a more financially secure and stable future.

My divorce last year was unexpected and took a toll on me both physically and emotionally. I felt lost and unsure as to how to proceed so I was much relieved when I found an attorney that took the time to explain the process in a frank and caring way. During my initial consultation with Mark Weiss he gave my invaluable advice including asking me to work as much out with my spouse before in went to the lawyers. He also impressed upon me the fact to be as calm, kind and as civil as I possibly could be. I took his advice to heart and although far from painless it could have been so much worse. Mark’s response time to my questions was superb, usually same day. Mark Weiss made one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do bearable and kept me sane. You would be hard pressed to find a better lawyer.

After learning the crushing news that my 29+ year marriage would soon come to an end, my first two thoughts were to find a good councilor and a great attorney. Fortunately for me, my councilor referred me to Mark Weiss. From my first visit with Mark, I knew he would have my best needs as his main focus. Mark has many exceptional qualities, such as being an empathetic listener, patient with my many questions during the divorce process, has high integrity and is very well respected from his fellow attorneys and collaborative team members, very thorough in all his reports and information, providing referrals for additional professional resources; such as career counseling, etc., has vast experience and knowledge of Washington state divorce law, very timely with his return calls, emails, and availability to discuss any concerns. Mark Weiss is dedicated to staying on task with the goal of reaching the best mutually agreed upon final outcome for his client, while also being respectful and compassionate of the needs of the other spouse and children involved. Overall, Mark has a very holistic viewpoint when serving his client through one of the most difficult experiences in their life, by addressing the emotional, physical, mental, and financial wellbeing of his client. I am very happy with Mark's handling of my divorce and would recommend him and his staff to friends, family or anyone going through this ordeal. I have already referred others to his law practice.

Mark was a wonderfully calm and knowledgeable guide through a very difficult process. He is patient, thoughtful, and professional.

Mark is exceptionally easy to work with and truly level-headed. He made a decidedly difficult process easy and was always willing to inform and guide depending on the need.

Mr. Eagle – I would like to congratulate you and your excellent team on providing such excellent service and demonstrating professionalism and personal attention to all of the details of this case. John and I are beyond grateful and satisfied with the outcome. We do not regret hiring you.

Paul and his law firm are experienced, client focused, and skilled in addressing complicated family law matters. Paul and his staff take a team approach to make sure that I feel supported and communicated with throughout each of my step of my process. I have been using Paul and his team for almost two years now and I am still very satisfied with the successes we have had on my case. Paul provides clear sound advice and makes sure that I am always informed of my legal options, delivering tough news with professionalism and compassion, as well as celebrating the wins with reserved optimism. I appreciate Paul's experience and sound advice in my case. I would definitely recommend Paul and his team to family, friends, and colleagues looking for an experienced and skilled attorney.

Attorney Paul F. Eagle and his marvelous team demonstrated high level professionalism in handling our case, but most importantly, Mr. Eagle added that human touch that made things go out as smooth as possible and helped us reach the outcome we wanted. Mr. Eagle offered excellent legal representation and I would recommend to anyone seeking legal representation to contact Eagle Law Offices.

Your professionalism, thoughtfulness and thoroughness as we worked through the issues was absolutely wonderful and an exception to what I have experienced in my journey through family law. My only regret is that I did not find you sooner. While it would be a misnomer to say that I look forward to working with you again, I hope if I’m in need of legal services, your team will be available. Many thanks again!

I hired her (and her team) for my divorce case as a defense lawyer. I really needed their professional help as I am NOT familiar with divorce procedures and WA laws. She literally did not give me any feeling/confidence that I had a chance to win the case. I talked with her a couple of times and a few email exchanges but my bills kept coming even though she is not my attorney anymore. There was no mediation or court. We did not even make it that far. I feel that she overcharged me even though I explained that I had a very bad financial situation and did not work with her very long. There were moments that she made me feel like she was HIS (the opposite side) attorney and not mine. If you need somebody to make you feel that "you got this", she is not the one! I needed a strong lawyer who understands moms and women who have been in tough situations in a strange country and being abused but all i ended up receiving was HUGE bills. I now can't even afford any other lawyer and am in a worse situation than before.

If there is 10 stars, I would give them full stars. My divorce case dragged for more than one year, before I came to DuBois Cary Law firm. My first divorce firm was McKinley Irvin (the big popular firm), which assigned 2 leaving attorneys to my case. The attorneys are leaving the firm, yet they are assigned to my case! I spent money on bad lawyers, who never spent a drop of their energy on my case. I moved to another lawyer, John Kydd, who is abusive and would clocked hours and hours to gain fee. We talked on the phone for over 3 hours! That is super exhausting, because I would be reduced to tears. I almost gave up on attorneys, with much disappointment and decided to go Pro Se. After 4 months of Pro Se, my ex was pushing me so hard to a corner. With my family help, I finally mastered a courage to contact DuBois Cary. Amanda recommended Lucia to me. I was very skeptical about my new attorney. Fast forward, within 5 months, my divorce case is finalized with a good offer package from the opposing party. Even the opposing attorney like working with Lucia! I am very blessed to meet Lucia (remotely due to Covid), and I hope I can hug her in person if I can. She is genuinely care for me, and she is such a kind hearted lady. She is professional, and her team is very responsive. What can I say, there is always a good sheep among the bad ones. Thanks Luca and team, you have done good thing to my daughters and myself. You have saved a helpless mother who is constantly bullied by her ex. You managed to steer her away from hopeless to hopeful situation. Thank you!

Thank you very, very much for all you did to help during the past two years! We couldn't have managed without you and all of your support. Your team is number one in family law. I interviewed the top 4 family law groups. Amanda you were the only one that believed that "honesty is the best policy" and we won the case. Dubois Law group cared for me and my child as their clients. Amanda provided stellar service for over 2 (two) years, keeping my child safe. It was a complex and highly litigated case. Amanda and her associates will give you the best legal representation. They will be your guide and trusted resource.

Informative, useful & accurate.

I don't know what I would do with out Lucia and Tania as my legal team. Lucia has been my lawyer for about 5 years. I would recommend her to anyone. She shows up for me completely prepared for the courtroom, is totally confident in her presentations and and is so knowledgeable. I can't thank them enough for all they have done.

Intake personnel Dani Berlin was quick to schedule a family law consultation for me and collect pre-payment, but she did not follow through with the attorney profile she promised nor did she return my email regarding the proper exchange of documentation. She did, however, contact me 2 hours before my scheduled consultation and tell me that the attorney she had scheduled would need to cancel because of a conflict. Due to the timeframe of my needs, this was completely detrimental to my situation and although I was refunded, the firm made zero attempt to reschedule or accommodate me. I consider this both unfortunate and unprofessional.

In a divorce, you need advocates. Advocates that are willing to listen, empathize with your situation and quickly ascertain what rights and entitlements one has. I was fortunate enough to be paired with Hillary Roberts. From our first meeting, I felt she was first and foremost genuine which was the impetus for me to go with McKinley Irvin. As we started working together, her legal acumen and excellent correspondence was confidence inspiring as we slogged through the details of hard data like finances to more aqueous, emotional reasoning. She took on my desire to stay as a present father just as serious as I and her willingness to go as far as we could go is something I'll appreciate and cherish forever. I would be remiss not to mention the paralegals extraordinaire, Régan Bafaro and Amy Trahan. They worked tirelessly assisting with my discovery process and making sure that all the t's were crossed and i's were dotted. Sincerely, -Al

Best lawyer by far. Anyone needs good help in family matters he's the man to see.

This review is a long time past due! I dont think I can say enough great things about Hillary. She stayed with is for 6 years dealing with a psychotic, narcissistic coparent who liked to play games, on top of being across the country from us majority of the time. She helped us navigate court and always kept what was at our child's best interest at heart rather than just winning a case. She became more than an employee, she became like family, so much so that she celebrated the birth of our youngest child with us from across the country. If our case had stayed in Washington State we would not have hesitated to keep her as our attorney!

David Starks, is an amazing attorney. My expirence with David and his team has been as good as it gets when it comes to issues of family law. I have worked with several attorneys at this firm and always felt they had my families best interests at heart. If you want good solid advice from people that care, results that matter, McKinley Irvin can do that for you.

Veronica was recommended to me through a close friend, at a time when I was at my lowest. I'd just been assaulted by my husband of nearly 20 years, who was/is a complete textbook covert narcissist. As soon as we met for the consultation I just knew I was in good hands and that Veronica would fight the good fight for me in my divorce. It was a grueling 12+ months but through the whole thing Veronica never lost sight of our goals and in the end I got what was fair and just. I truly believe I would not have gotten the outcome we did had I hired another attorney.

I was recommended Veronica and her firm by a friend of the family. My soon to be ex-husband is a very challenging person to work with and my number 1 goal through the entire process was to do what is fair and what is right. I appreciate that Veronica and her firm helped to support me in those desires while protecting me from being bullied by my ex. They helped me not only navigate through the divorce and mediation process, but also helped with communications with the ex when he was less than appropriate on numerous occasions. They helped remind me that the boundaries I had set around my children were not only fair, they were just and that he needed to respect those boundaries. I also used Fierce to describe this group because while my case was settled it mediation, it was clear they knew when and where to be fierce and that is what you want when someone is advocating for your rights and the rights of your children. Should this have gone to trial, I have no doubt that Veronica and her team would have been nothing short of phenomenal. I worked a lot with Amy in dealing with various correspondence with my ex and she was truly amazing. While I feel for anyone reading this review in need of a lawyer, I could not recommend Veronica and her team more.

Honest, Hard Working, Caring and Fair. 5.0 stars Posted by Robert August 30, 2020 Thank You for handling my divorce / Case. You told me not to worry and that I was in good hands and your words became true. I appreciate the amazing professionalism of the whole team. Michael is not only an outstanding lawyer but was such a quality and nice person to work with. Even though you handle issues of tremendous gravity on a daily basis, everyone was so compassionate and caring and helpful. I felt your service was amazing, demonstrated a high level of professional integrity, and was reasonable and fair. My experience with you, Michael, Amy, Beth, Christopher , Valerie, and Silinda was outstanding -- I hope to not ever go through the experience again but you and everyone associated with V. Fretas law will be at the top of my list of recommendations when and if my friends find themselves in similar situations. Again, I just want to say -- Thank You ,

Veronica Freitas and her team went above and beyond to fight for me in a custody case to insure my son resided with me, his Mom. She is an excellent listener, articulate, thoughtful, and compassionate. Her paralegal, Amy, touched base with me daily and helped me navigate through an extremely emotional & stressful case. She made sure I had all of the valuable & necessary information needed to win my case. When the opposing lawyer attempted to bend the laws in their favor, she was quick to point out the inadequacies in their argument and poked many holes in their case. As a result, the case was dismissed. Veronica and her team continue to check on me and my son and our safety even though the case has ended. What a blessing to have this thoughtful, astute, and powerful force on my side. I am eternally grateful to have found her during one of the most difficult, stressful, & gut wrenching times in my life. I highly recommend VFreitas law if you want to feel properly guided & protected!

I changed over to Veronica midstream in my divorce. I'm so glad I did! Having her in my corner made a huge difference!
