Jesse Valentino Barrientes

I’ve been a client of Mr. Jesse Barrientes for about a year. Mr. Barrientes is knowledgeable of the law, responsive, and displays the upmost professionalism in all transactions. Aside from his vast knowledge and professionalism, I also appreciate the human side and compassion he conveys to his cli...entele. Jesse did an amazing job thru my divorce proceedings. He kept in me well informed and provided excellent counseling as to what needs to be done going forward. I highly recommend Mr. Barrientes for you and your family attorney needs.

I cannot even begin to say enough nice things about Jesse. But to summarize….he was the 3rd lawyer I have had since I got divorced. My first lawyer experience left me with all kinds of problems down the road that I never could have anticipated, as I did not know anything about anything when first g...etting divorced. (i.e. making sure child tax deductions were fairly split between my children’s father and myself….ensuring a transportation plan that was fair for all….having a mandatory review of parenting schedule that allowed for changes in kids’ schedules as they aged through the school years…etc etc). As a result, I eventually had to hire another lawyer to help me tackle the child tax deduction issue, and was met with an onslaught of legal badgering and, in my mind, harassment, from my ex-husband and his attorney. This second lawyer I hired was great on many levels, but also very new/green, and never seemed to see the dirty tricks coming from my ex-husband’s lawyer before they happened, so did not help me with pre-empting anything. Long story short, and 2.5 emotionally painful and financially draning years after taking my ex-husband to court to fix the problems from my first lawyer’s dismal work, I was introduced to Jesse by some mutual friends. He was, simply, AMAZING. He has so much experience, and SUCH great wisdom in how he approaches things. He not only helped me finally get all these past years’ of lawyering messes cleaned up within 6 weeks, he helped me stay sane, and focused on the big picture. He gives true meaning to the word “counselor”, as he counseled me multiple times. He cut to the chase with my ex-husband’s lawyer, and was able to make sure all the distraction tactics she was using to drag things out and financially drain me, were quickly put to a stop. He reminded me the importance of meditation, and to stay focused on my CHILDREN, versus trying to “win” a fight against their dad. I just wish that I had met Jesse 9 years ago! But, I am very thankful that I finally was steered towards him. Experience, wisdom, and genuine care for others (along with a communicated respect for the other legal parties involved too, which of course helped me try to stay in that healthy space) embody who Jesse is, and how he works. THANK YOU, Jesse. I am forever thankful for you!

Having never needed to use a lawyer, I was at a loss when my ex served me child support papers after disappearing w/my daughter for almost 18 years. He was recommended to me by a friend who used him, I talked to him and he took my case. He got me through a very difficult time, was very pleasant, unde...rstanding, knowledgeable, and easy to deal with. He helped me navigate the legal waters of my particular situation with ease, and even though I hope I don't ever "need" to use him again, I would have no question I would call upon him if the need ever arose. Cannot say enough good things about him, he is simply the best there is.
