Awesome Lawyer!

Tina was a pleasure to work with. She made a difficult situation so easy. She was professional , courteous , respectful of both my needs and that of my now x-wife. Just because you don't want to be married to someone , doesn't mean you want to hurt them. Tina understood that and gave me great counsel... on how to proceed for what I wanted and needed.

Devoted and Meticulous Lawyer

Tina was a superb lawyer that helped provide direction and guidance for legal documentation our family could not resolve. She stepped in and helped us navigate the complex administrative hurdles and provided routine updates. She was always available and responsive even through a global pandemic. We w...ere very pleased with the level of service she provided.

Truly cares and strong willed.

I came to Tina for my divorce because my father used her decades ago for a different type of case. I was completely lost on the process and have a disabled son I needed to make sure my husband and I both had his interest as our top priority. Even though my divorce was not a ugly or hard one Tina made... sure everyone involved was educated and agreed to everything that was outlined. She definitely is a life long family friend of ours now and considered family in my book. I will always recommend her to all my family and friends who find themselves in need of a amazing and strong willed family lawyer. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for my family and still help out with.

Difficult Divorce and Child Custody Case

Tina has been extremely supportive. She picked up my case after my previous attorney moved to another city. My case is already difficult because my ex attempts to drag out every hearing by making false claims about me, an amicus, a witness, her siblings and her own attorney, block visitations, call...s the police and argues with them regularly, makes outlandish claims about our daughter's disabilities and argues with judges on a regular basis. It is a circus. Fortunately, Tina is very patient and professional above all else. She gives me her recommendations on what to do next and I couldn't be happier with her performance. She clearly has experience and knows the system very well. Comparing her to other attorneys: 1. She is far more responsive. 2. She pays attention to the details. 3. She knows which battles to fight and which ones to let go. 4. Fantastic strategist. 5. Well spoken. 6. Well known among her peers. 7. Her reviews on here are a testament to her. She's been amazing!

The best!

Tina is great! I highly recommend her! She was able to get me through a difficult situation. She put me at ease explaining every step and pros and cons to every option i could take. She responds quickly to all my questions. Having to deal with child custody i was confused and honestly a mess..there w...ere so many questions i had and she always reviewed my case with me and my options. Her attitude and confidence is what i most like about her! The first time i talked to her i knew i needed her on my case. She is straight forward and reliable, she wont waist your time. I will continue to consult with her in any future matter.

Relationship: Co-worker

"Judge Torres has an asset that few attorneys do, she's knows the perspective from the bench. While many lawyers think they know what a judge will do based on their experience, her judgment is based on having been in the judge's shoes many times. Beyond her judicial experience, her passion and energy are uplifting. Spending a few moments with her brightens my day and I'm sure it does the same for her clients. You couldn't be in better hands."
