Best attorney in the world!

I’ve hired Stacy for my custody case. And she is an amazing, professional, knowledgeable, fair, honest, and will not sugar coated for you attorney. She is the real deal. Any question you have, she will respond promptly and with extreme knowledge. Stacy worked extremely hard and has fought tooth and n...ail in my case so I can have successful results. She has her clients best interest at heart. Thank you to Stacy, my relationship with my son is being protected and assured that my son will always remain in my life. I recommend Stacy to anyone whom is having custody issues or any other family law issues. Thank you Stacy for being such an amazing attorney. You are truly appreciated.

An EXCEPTIONAL lawyer and WONDERFUL person...

When my granddaughter needed a Divorce Lawyer for a divorce from a man she had not been married to long, but otherwise too miserably long, with children involved, to say it was a mess, and that her reasons for wanting and needing the divorce were such that she didn't know where to begin, is an unders...tatement. Wanting me to find a lawyer for her, I had spent days calling and talking to one lawyer after another, and each time, for one reason or another, not feeling comfortable with any of them. I was important to find one that I felt my granddaughter could feel comfortable talking with. And, if I didn't feel comfortable talking to someone, she certainly wouldn't. Day after day, It was a tiring ordeal searching, until, finally.......... ENTER....ATTY. STACY LY! It's hard to describe her because she is so one of a kind in so many ways. Not only is Stacy a GREAT listener, with good perception, and understanding, and caring, and able to explain legal terms in ways easily understood, and is pleasant to talk with, but with all that, she has this TAKE CHARGE attitude, as she explains the steps she would take, and tells it like it, both the pros and the cons, and explains the options, and the intended and hopeful outcome. I had no reason to look any further than Stacy Ly. And, after my granddaughter came home from meeting Stacy for a consult, the huge smile of relief, like a huge burden had been lifted, and she had a feeling of confidence, I was not surprised. Stacy is not phony in the impressions she gives, she is for real, what you see is what you get. She is extremely knowledgeable, she's perceptive, sympathetic, understanding, and caring, and she is honest, will tell you like it is, and not just what you would rather hear. She will be THERE for you in every way she can be, doing all she can on your behalf. And, she will also be there if you, in the meanwhile, have any questions. She is quick to respond, unless she is in court all day, but will be sure to respond once she's out, even if it's later in the evening, and whether by a phone call, a text, or an email. The OUTCOME of my granddaughter's DIVORCE was better than expected. Stacy is not just an exceptional lawyer, she's a wonderful person. And, both my granddaughter and I thank her very much for being there.

Will & Medical Power of Attorney/Family Case

Stacy Ly was the attorney I hired to prepare my Will and Medical Power of Attorney documents. She explained in detail the importance of each document and what was required of me in order to make my wishes known regarding my Assets and Health decisions. This process was straight forward and took one o...ffice visit to complete. Stacy previously assisted my family with a Family case and I was very pleased with her results and professionalism in that legal case that I decided to seek her services for my personal needs. I was present during the court hearings for that Family case therefore I feel entitled to report my observations. Stacy always appeared ready and eager to get her point across with respect and always made herself available to answer our questions quickly and provide us with updates regarding the case. I would hire Stacy Ly again without a doubt.

INCOMPETENT

I used this lawyer unfortunately. I lost my case and kids due to her not being on time and sending assistants with no information on my case. She stood right by me while I was sent to jail with no support or argument and she only came to see me 1 time in 3 months I was released on July 11th and on ...July 15th she is informing me that she is at the judges office to see the judge to request early release for me? She did nothing I paid her for. My opinion is this lawyer should not work for families as she is incompetent and does not have any legal knowledge, communication, compassion or respect for her clients to know I was released. Beware you will loose everything!

Sandra, I don't know who you are. I did not handle a custody case where I cause you to lose custody. I never had a female client in jail where I had to visit her. You are not my client, stop posting lies and bad reviews on this site or any other website!
