Child best interest - Ms. Shemesh DID it!

Ms. Shemesh proved to be an exceptional attorney, coming highly recommended by a family friend who specializes in a different area of law. When my child's father unexpectedly filed a lawsuit against me, I knew it was essential to seek legal representation. Ms. Shemesh and her firm successfully sec...ured the sole conservatorship of my child, fulfilling all my requests, including specific conditions that are typically not granted. I wholeheartedly endorse Amber Shemesh and her team for their professionalism and dedication. Although the legal process can be expensive and challenging, her patience and support have been invaluable, and I will always be grateful for her assistance.

Professional, kind, and knowledgeable!

Attorney Shemesh, Attorney Richardson, & staff make up an extraordinary team who care about their clients and make a difficult process as easy as possible. I found them to always provide thorough, competent legal advice. I felt in control yet supported throughout the entire process. I highly recommen...d their services to anyone going through a divorce.

Overpriced, doesn’t keep word

Amount was not the ballpark range given. Did little to no work on case after temp orders. Ageed to bill biweekly so I could keep track, but did not receive bill for over month and it was way over ballpark range agreed upon. When I couldn’t pay the bill all work haulted and they dropped representatio...n. Court sent a DWOP notice to their office, it was never forwarded to me so my divorce was dropped after all the money I previously spent. Back to square one. They still call and email me wanting payment for a case they screwed me on. Do not hire unless you have unlimited funds.

On behalf of the firm, this is not accurate and this post was likely written by an opposing party. All cases are billable by the hour, there is never any flat rate promised as it depends on all the issues involved in the case. Moreover, the contract clearly states this and also that invoices are sent monthly. Once the firm is no longer representing a person, the firm has no duty to continue to work on the case.
