Will

I'm glad I was able to find Justin to help with my will and the other forms he suggested. When I got hurt from an accident I knew I needed to get my things together. Justin was able to do everything over the telephone and email because I could not come to his office because of the accident. When i...t was time to sign all the documents he was able to get a notary and witnesses to come to my house. I did not have to worry about doing anything. If you are considering getting your will I suggest speaking to Justin. You will be happy that you did.

Divorce

I hired Justin after my wife filed for divorce. I was nervous about everything because you hear so many horror stories about losing everything and having your kids taken away. With Justin, he kept in constant contact with me to explain how everything was going and what were my best options. In... the end, the divorce was completed just like Justin had explained. I'm glad I listened to his advise and didn't try to rush it.

Divorce

My husband and I both decided we wanted to get a divorce and not make it a bigger deal than what it needed to be. My husband was referred to Justin through Fathers for Equal Rights. Justin was very attentive to listening to our concerns and knowledgeable about how we should proceed with the divorce.... Instead of feeling any pressure to hire a lawyer, Justin suggested that we may want to consider not each hiring lawyers and we each represent ourselves. Justin did suggest having someone draft our documents just to make sure our documents were done correctly. Looking back, I am so glad we took Justin's suggestion. We decided to have Justin draft all the documents we would need for court. He spent time with us to go through the entire process and answered any questions we had. What made us feel more at ease was that Justin was quick to get back to us if we had any questions. We were able to save a lot of money by working with Justin. I recommend you speak to him just to go over your options.

Child Custody Modification

The Rivera Law Firm did a great job with fixing my case. I originally went to a different local attorney for my divorce. The other attorney just rushed through my case, and I never really had a chance to read the final decree. After looking at it after the divorce was done, I wasn't even getting w...hat I agreed to. I tried to have the attorney fix things, but all he wanted to do was charge me more money. So, I contacted Justin about my case. Justin did not waste any time having my case filed and the new order written correctly. Justin worked with me as far as payments and scheduling times to meet due to my out-of-town work schedule. Overall, I'm glad I found The Rivera Law Firm to help me fix my case. I can't see myself going to anyone but Justin for any of my legal problems.

Modify Child Support

The Rivera Law Firm did a great job on everything! Justin kept me very informed about the status of my case and was quick to respond to my messages. Justin was very accommodating with my work schedule so we could meet after-hours to discuss my case. While I did not think it would be possible, Just...in was able to reach an agreement with the other party where I got everything I asked for. I didn’t even have to go to court once! I couldn’t be any happier with Justin’s quickness and my satisfaction for the time Justin put into my case. I will recommend this Law Firm in a heartbeat!
