Profession, nice, speak mandarin as well

I live in California, I'm so lucky I can find Cathleen to help me with my prenuptial because I'm not so good in English. She's so nice and professional. I definitely will hire her next time if I need.

Effective Divorce lawyer

Responsive, listened to our concerns, gave us good advice and handled the case effectively. Would not hesitate to recommend her services. The case was signed sealed and delivered in less than 60 days.

Great lawyer!

Ms. Winter is kind and easy to work with. She is excellent at her craft and leaves no stone unturned. Ms. Winter went above and beyond to create the perfect pre-nuptial agreement for me, helping me to both understand the law and protect my assets as a newlywed and private business owner. I highly rec...ommend Ms. Winter for your family law needs.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
