Terry Mendez was exceptionally supportive during my divorce

Terry represented me during my divorce. She was fair and attentive to any questions or concerns. She was also very helpful for me to see what the likelihood of me succeeding with all my wants and wishes so we could target the most important ones. Could not have gotten through this difficult time with...out her support and extensive knowledge

Strategic hands-on advice

Terri was terrific and helped our family overcome the hurdles generated by the crossroads of governmental bureaucracy, incompetent leadership in a public school and legal problems derived from the interaction between good and bad teenagers, bullying and self defense.

Excellent work on a will probate

Ms. Mendez completed a will probate and munim title request. The work was done correctly and in a timely fashion. She represented me in the courtroom and the process was without stress.

Best Ever!! You will not find a better attorney around

I was seeking a modification to a current agreement which I knew going in was difficult and extremely contentious. My ex has kept me in and out of court, flooded every attorney I have had with paperwork and hearings after hearings. As a Mother knew was in the best interests of my child that I pursue ...a modification this time. I met with Terri, Amanda and their team, explained my situation and they made me very comfortable in pursuing my modification as well as informing me this was going to be a difficult case. The case ended up going to trial after almost 9 months, 3 mediations and a temporary orders hearing. At the end of the case Terri and Amanda were able to obtain an excellent result. This team is the dynamic duo. They spend numerous amounts of time together, therefore, know what is going on with each and every one of there cases as they are constantly updating each other. Their motto is about communication and they have the best from any "service" business, especially a law firm, that I have seen. Throughout the entire process I always knew she had the best interests of my child in mind and that she truly felt for what I was going through. This whole team really understood the emotional toll these cases take and always were very comforting. They were always honest with me and we're on top of things. They had no issue explaining to me how difficult this was going to be. Terri never pressured me into any situation and it was always my decision on how to proceeed. Furthermore, they were always extremely prepared with the information I gave to them which was a ton since I had been in and out of Court so much in the past. They were so prepared that I would hear other attorneys commend them on the prepared documents and the Judge during trial seemed very impressed. I would highly recommend Terri Mendez and this team to anyone and I will use this team for any legal services that I will ever need.
