One of the best in the game

Words cannot express how appreciative I am of the work Attorney Vargas and her team did for me and my family. While going through a hard fought custody battle for my son, my previous attorney dropped the ball on so many things that I ended up losing out on visitation time with him and I needed a chan...ge. I was referred to Attorney Vargas through a friend of a friend and from the first conversation I had with her it was obvious that she was the right choice moving forward. From knowing the local court system, the quickness of follow-ups, being on top of submitting documents, to being a top notch litigator...her and her team went above and beyond anything I could have ever asked for from a lawyer. In my case, the negotiations and parenting plan that Vargas and her team pushed through gave me more time with my son and list of conditions that were a vast improvement compared to what I was faced with before. I could go on forever with specific examples on how Attorney Vargas came through for me and my family even with me being out of state, but I don't want to miss the main message. Attorney Vargas and her team are by far one of the best in the game. There is no amount of thanks I could give her that would be sufficient for what she has done for us. The professionalism and compassion that she displayed allowed me to keep it together through the worst of times. I will sing her praises whenever I get the chance. Thank you Attorney Vargas and your amazing team.

Exceptional attorney

S. Vargas handled my custody case expertly. She is diligent with all filings and communications. She has the communication skills to handle negotiations with opposing counsel in a way that maintains the original objective (ie she doesn’t just continually negotiate downward, like many attorneys do). S...he has all the knowledge, skills, and techniques to be a top tier attorney. But she also has a unique and rare intuition to read the other parties and the presiding judge/magistrate and to adapt adjust accordingly. I feel this was really why she was successful in winning our case. If you need a custody attorney, she is the one.
