I am a pasionate and caring lawyer, with a primary goal on fostering long term relationships. My desire to become a "different" attorney was fueld by my own divorce in 2006. Many lawyers did not seem interested in me as a person; I was just one of many cases. Here at the DeCosta Law Firm, "your family matters become our family matters.

I am deeply disappointed with the legal services provided by Attorney Holmes/Decosta. Unfortunately, I cannot provide specific details due to the sensitive nature of the matter. However, I can say that the outcome of my case was far from satisfactory, and I believe that the attorney's actions or inac...
I am sorry you feel this way. I understand you need someone to blame. However, I was your 3rd/4th attorney, and I did not play a role in your custody arrears in excess of $100,000.

I originally contacted her through messaging her on avvo in which she called me after reading. If she finds out she has to actually do any work on your case, she will just take your money, ignore you for months and the NIGHT before your case text you saying she received a message from the court about...
