A family you failed

I added our name so you know exactly what case this is! I’m five years and 5,000 down the drain. You did nothing for our family. Our children have suffered tremendously. You can’t even help innocent children after being paid 5,000. You should really be ashamed, how do you sleep at night? Knowing you ...failed innocent children for five years! You did nothing!!!! It’s time to take a stand up against this lawyer!!!

Brianna Sanchez - client

I don’t have enough words to describe what I feel as a mom who has to watch her baby boy suffer and experience trauma, abuse and more. I watched our lives fall apart helplessly as we became stuck in the system for the last 4 years. The guilt that consumes you for you know it’s you the other parent wa...nts to destroy but it’s your innocent sweet blessing that is used to do just that. I blindly went in trying to fix it proSe only to find that no matter the amount of evidence, facts, witnesses I had I would fail. Vy and the girls came into our lives by grace of God, they listened to my high conflict family case that didn’t end there but made its way to criminal court in separate counties, not once did they hesitate or make me feel that it was impossible to restore my family. I am going against a narcissistic parent but with their knowledge, experience they truly fought for me, for us! we’ve made it past the biggest hurdle and they still stand beside us being our voice in the court room to finish our end goal. Bring my family together once more. Vy and her whole group put in endless hours, gave me hope when I was losing mine. I would not be here able to share this story had I never had them on my team. I recommend her to other parents I cross going through hard times. They are part of my battle but most importantly they will be part of the victory and healing <3 and that love a mom has for her babies is priceless. We are eternally grateful for all you guys do!

Life Saver

After arguing with the attorney general for 12 years about a case/ child support manner I was basically threatened by my daughter's father to sign. Attorney Nguyen was able to help me get the order reversed. Thank You so much.

Excellent choice

My ex took off with my kids in August and didn’t know where to find them or what to do. I found Vy through a search and it was the best choice I every made. She not only found out where my children were but I also gained primary custody of them. I can’t thank Vy or her paralegal Meghan enough for the...ir amazing work they did. If you’re a father and need help, don’t hesitate and call Vy she will work tirelessly for you and your children.
