Adriana Arguelles de la Torriente

Even though I had proof of what my ex did, she helped him as well as a judge in DeKalb County. She was relentless, raising her voice and pretty much attacking me in court. We all know what happened and all of this led to my daughter committing suicide because he was never held accountable for his beh...avior. Now that she has a child, I hope she can see things differently.

Adriana was really helpful in pushing through my divorce. I met her when I found out very unpleasantly that I might need a divorce attorney. She was kind enough to give me her time to listen, good legal advice, and patiently waited about a year before we actually started the process. She was so he...lpful with legal advice during the toughest part of the divorce. She kept on task, and was calm and gentle when the situation got heated. She also gave me good advice on what she thought was reasonable and appropriate, and offered alternatives solutions to some parenting issues. I really appreciate that she kept her client’s finances in mind. She even tried to remind the opposing counsel that if he finished the paperwork in time we could avoid court cost.

I was so glad I hired Adriana for my divorce. I did some research online and checked her Avvo rating before I went for the consultation, and I was so impressed with her knowledge and how personable she was. I was married for 30 years, and had no idea what to expect, but she was very organized and hel...pful at guiding me through the process at such a stressful and emotional time. I felt confident having her as my lawyer, and the outcome went extremely well!

I hired Adriana to file for my divorce from my ex-wife in 2014. The case was made very complicated because the opposing party was not reasonable about anything. While the opposing counsel was very aggressive and was requesting sky, Adriana remained calm and was not intimidated. At some point I felt t...hat she needed to response to some of the accusations or insinuations of the opposing counsel. But, she always reassured me by telling me that none of the insinuations from the other party have any importance. In response to the other party unbelievable offers and counter offers, to say the least, she told me that we always have to be reasonable ourselves in our offer. She also told me to do the right thing and provide all the documents that they requested. I did everything she asked me to do and I always respond quickly to her request. Throughout the litigation, she never stopped telling me that we need to be reasonable. Finally, we ended up going to trial. With Adriana's help , great work preparing for the trial and her constant communication with me all along made me feel confident. Adriana has always crafted our offers with the mindset of a judge. She would go and fight to get you the maximum that she can get from a judge's perspective. She would tell you what is possible and what is not possible based on the facts. With Adriana's expertise and preparation, I was able to get everything that I so desired. You can imagine my emotions when I get the final order. I would definitely recommend Adriana! Great Job Adriana and your team! it is all about results! oh, on a side note, Adriana is a geeky too! She organized her exhibits in a way that gave her the ease to switch back and forth between exhibits during trial.
