Melissa Veronica Caballero

Melissa was recommended by another law firm that could not take my case, she is that amazing. She helped me with a long, unnecessarily drawn out divorce. I was willing to give up so much, financially to end the divorce early but Melissa wouldn’t allow it. I am now glad for it. I know she acted in the... highest good for myself and my son. She is extremely intelligent and can see through issues with laser beam clarity. Interestingly enough, she is also compassionate and empathic but that doesn’t get in the way of her being strong and professional resulting in a phenomenal job. She is very personable and has a gift of working well with other attorneys. The other two attorneys were difficult and eccentric and she handled them with ease. She presents as someone who commands respect without losing her humanity in such a difficult profession to maintain such. She is brilliant and quick on her feet, which means she gets things done quicker, definitely significantly quicker than my ex-husband’s attorney. While the dynamics of my divorce, due to the issues and the other, rather inconsiderate attorneys contributed to the divorce being long, it was evident that Melissa’s objective was to be efficient and keep the divorce cost down for me. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.

Before deciding on representation, I met with three attorneys. I am so happy I went with Melissa for my divorce attorney. She really knows her stuff and helped me feel confident and not let my ex bully or manipulate me into backing down from a fair divorce. She made sure I had all the facts and knew ...what I was legally entitled to, but never pushed me and supported my decision to settle for what I felt comfortable with in order to avoid litigation, keeping the divorce cost down. I truly feel that she had my best interests at heart at all times and if I had to go through it again I would hire her without a doubt!

I was referred to Melissa by a friend who was also using her for her divorce. From day one, Melissa advised me of my different options and helped educate me so that I could make the right decisions. She never tried to push me or persuade me into something even if it meant less money for her. Througho...ut my divorce, I felt like I was in the driver's seat and she was my copilot advising me of different roads we could take. I always trusted her and never felt taken advantage of. She was very timely with her responses in communication and thorough. I felt protected with her as my attorney. In the end, my ex and I ended up negotiating an agreement which she encouraged as she wanted us to make progress. I've heard horror stories from other friends who are getting divorced about attorneys that take advantage of emotional people, don't respond, don't educate and don't care. I feel so lucky to have worked with her through this difficult in my life and I will continue to refer her to my friends and family.

If you find yourself in the unfortunate circumstance of needing to file for divorce, make a plan and call Melissa. She will take care of meeting all the legal requirements and provide direction on what to do and when, getting you more easily through a difficult process as quickly and low cost as pos...sible. She handled many of the stressful "in person" court appearances and meetings with my ex and kept things moving along even when my ex was difficult, argumentative and insulting. I highly recommend Melissa Caballero.

I have been a client of Ms. Caballero for about 3 years now. I don't know what I would do without her. My divorce proceedings have been difficult and completely ridiculous at times, but Melissa has been so professional, helpful, fair and knowledgeable in guiding me through it. I love that I can leve...l with her and I know I am always getting an honest answer or opinion in return. I would recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a lawyer to help them with family matters.
