Very Impressed

Marvin represented our daughter in her divorce case. We were anxious and worried about the process, as no one in our family has gone through a divorce before. Marvin handled our daughter’s case with ease and compassion. He took the time to explain the process step by step to us and our daughter. ...We went to court on the trial dates to watch the trial and we were thoroughly impressed with Marvin’s skills in the courtroom. He advocated zealously for our daughter and obtained a very satisfactory outcome. We could not have been more impressed. We highly recommend Marvin to anyone looking for a family law attorney.

All around fantastic attorney

I worked with Mr. Mendez from May/2015 - October/2016 on my divorce. He was understanding and compassionate through the entire process, while guiding me through the difficult decisions that needed to be made. He was always available via email or phone call. Mr. Mendez was also extremely patient, a...s I would make decisions and then often reconsider my position. He was always up to date with the latest law changes and explained how they could have an impact on my decisions moving forward. He took his time to explain things to me in language I could understand, and supported my choices, while cautioning me on the implications. He kept me in the loop and sent copies of all correspondence between himself and opposing counsel. I trusted Mr. Mendez through the entire process and am grateful for his guidance, compassion, and knowledge. I felt fully supported through this very difficult process and would recommend him to anyone going through a divorce.

Excellent Attorney

Marvin is an amazing attorney. I am very satisfied with the conclusion of my child support/custody case. He always responded to me very quickly when I had any concerns or worries. He made sure I was well informed of any new information. Not only was he on top of my case but he is also a great person;... always asking about the family which is great! Every time I would speak to him, I felt relieved. He is very knowledgeable and trustworthy. He is truly a person that will stand behind you! Even now that my case is over, he still response back to me very quickly with any concerns or questions I have which I love. I highly recommend Marvin and I absolutely thank you for all your help!
