So grateful Shelley represented me

I am beyond grateful for Shelley and the incredible work she did on my behalf at Akamatsu Law PLLC. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to fight for me and protect my interests and properties. She handled my divorce through mediation in under six months, which felt like a miracle during s...uch a stressful time. Shelley is both kind and assertive—a rare and powerful combination. She is compassionate, encouraging, and always took the time to support me when I felt overwhelmed and hopeless. Her guidance gave me strength and confidence throughout the process. I truly felt seen, heard, and supported every step of the way. I highly recommend Shelley to anyone going through a divorce who wants an attorney who genuinely cares and delivers results.

The only choice!

Shelley Akamatsu came highly recommended, and after our first consultation I immediately understood why. She set clear expectations from the start, was always available, and consistently responsive. She knows the law, shoots straight, and operates with integrity and class. From that very first meetin...g through mediation, trial, and even post‑judgment, she has been there for me every step of the way. If you find yourself in the position of needing a divorce attorney, Shelley Akamatsu is the only choice.

The support I needed

Shelley has been spectacular. She took me on mid-way through my divorce case when my previous attorney changed jobs. She applied for supports I needed through the courts and gave me the knowledge and encouragement I needed to successfully make it through mediation with a good outcome. She also hel...ped keep me grounded when things seemed overwhelming. I would definitely work with her again, and happily refer others who ask me who to go to. She is amazing.
