Melisa Lyn Medina

Melisa and her staff are highly qualified, exceptionally talented, extremely knowledgeable attorneys (and paralegals). I came to Melisa's firm after experiencing a lengthy drawn out divorce that was not resolved after 2 plus years with a former unscrupulous attorney. Melisa was honest, quick, respons...ive, thorough, communicative and transparent in the resolution of a now 3 year divorce. She accomplished and always held what was in the best interest of me and my children. She guided me through the process with compassion and honesty. She or her staff were always available to explain the process and she resolved a very difficult and lengthy divorce with in clients best interest. I cannot recommend her more! She is opposite of the stereotypical attorney/law firm in the fact that she is not attempting to delay your case to gain financial benefit; she works aggressively to resolve your case and remains professional at all times, even if other parties involved are not. I feel blessed to have had her represent me in the resolution of my very difficult and lengthy divorce.

Melisa was not the first, second, or third lawyer I've hired, but the fourth - and she and her team were the only group that actually showed that they could provide care, empathy, and results. Melisa and her team were hand holding throughout the experience. They were able to resolve issues directly a...nd take copious amounts of notes to ensure we had everything we needed going into the hearing. Would recommend her and her team to anyone pre or post divorce. I would rate higher if I could.

I had an initial consult and ended hiring her. I had expressed things I had felt were important and at the time she seemed to agree. Then next thing I know everything had changed and my wishes for myself and my kids were not considered. She seemed to just take the easy way out and did it her way and ...then randomly email me saying this is what I did or what we are going to do. This has made the entire divorce process that much more stressful for me. You seemed like you cared but at the end of it all it was just about charging me as much as you could and dragging the process out to keep collecting from your client . I would never hire you again nor would I ever recommend you.

From my initial consultation through successful mediation Melisa Medina and her staff handled my case skillfully and efficiently, providing me the best possible outcome. My case was particularly challenging as I was dealing with an ex-spouse who was determined to destroy me financially and gain full... time custody of our child. In addition to being uncooperative during the divorce proceedings my ex-spouse was also attempting to use the legal system to make fraudulent false accusations against me, but Melisa exposed my ex's lies and got the case quickly back on track. My attorney Melisa used her skill, experience and instincts to navigate the many challenges with opposing counsel and his difficult client and to negotiate a great resolution for my case. Melisa and her team helped me navigate through a very stressful period in my life as they were very attentive, responsive and most of all compassionate to my situation through every step of the process. I have already referred a friend to Melisa who was in a similar situation, and he continually thanks me as his case was resolved quickly and more favorably than he expected. I would highly recommend Melisa to anyone for their family law needs.
