A Super Lawyer

It’s hard to find words to adequately thank and praise Karleana Farias for her speedy work in resolving a complicated bureaucratic snafu in the Attorney-General’s Child Support Enforcement Division. The AG said I owed six figures in unpaid child support, which was wrong. Worse, the AG suspended my mo...nthly state teacher retirement annuity, which is one third of my retirement income. A friend referred us to the Farias firm, and Karleana Farias got the snafu resolved in less than a week. My annuity is restored and life is back to normal for us. I highly recommend the Farias firm, especially Karleana for the kind and thoughtful way she handled our getting-to-know-you interview. She's just wonderful, and we intend to thank her with a Christmas card every year.

Superior Representation

I was referred to the Farias Law Firm, by another attorney, who could not accept my case because of a scheduling conflict and a large case load. I’m glad I found Karleana Farias. I hired the Farias Law Firm to represent me, during a child support case, in which the other party was being unreasonable ...and unfair. The Farias Law Firm took care of me every step the way and they ensured I wasn’t “getting screwed,” or taken advantage of! In fact, Karleana made the opposing attorney look like an amateur and he has been in practice for years (he was supposed to be skilled and knowledgeable ). Bottomline, The Farias Law Firm is effective, knowledgeable, and aggressive. I highly recommend them for your Family Law needs.

Excellent attorney

I hired Karleana for my child support case and I'm so glad I did. I saw immediate action and have been happy with the results. She's attentive to her clients, listens and gets the job done. I would highly recommend her.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
