Lourdes is the BEST OF THE BEST

After a disastrous first run with another firm, I was referred to Lourdes to help me keep my kids, obtain child support and my home. After 3 years of living through hell, I couldn't trust anyone. Lourdes reassured me throughout the entire process, answered all my questions and directed me step by s...tep on how to handle my difficult situation even when at times it was unbearable. I thank her for her professionalism, her savvy knowledge and most importantly how she protected my best interests by paying attention to all the details. Lourdes never gave up and was very motivated to win my case for me throughout the extensive duration. Lourdes came highly recommended and is one hell of an attorney that I would recommended any day of the week and twice on Sundays!

A credible, responsible and caring attorney

I hired Lourdes after my so called top notch attorney butchered my divorce case. Lourdes showed compassion and was tough for me when I could not fight the fight anymore. She always educated me on my rights and stood up for me and for what's right. I appreciated her support, integrity and responsiven...ess. I would recommend her as a divorce attorney any day!

Thank goodness

Lourdes was my second lawyer in my divorce case. My first lawyer (whom charged 40% more per hour) was in my opinion inept, uncommunicative, and unresponsive to my requests for settlement. Lourdes has been the opposite. Although no settlement was reached through mediation Lourdes navigated these s...tressful troubled waters while maintaining her poise and professionalism. Lourdes also did not charge for every item that took minimal time (quick telephone call, quick email). I highly recommend her.

The Best Divorce & Child Support Attorney

Lourdes Fernandez, Esq. has represented me on many issues for over 4 years. I have the highest respect for her and am grateful for all the hard work she has put into helping make many of the bad situations I have had with my ex-husband bearable. The law firm I work for handles other matters, so we ...refer many of our clients to her.

Client Review

Ms. Fernandez helped me out with a marriage anullment. She filed the paperwork with the court immediately. She responded to my requests in a very timely and professional manner. She showed up on time to the hearing, dressed appropriately. She prepared me as to what to say and practiced with me th...e various scenarios of questioning that might occur. By the time I got in front of the judge, the confidence that my attorney had instilled in me showed through and the judge didn't question me further. I definitely recommend her and in a situations concerning family issues, were I ever to need lawyering services in those areas again, I would want her by my side.
