Excellent Attorney

Shelley recently handled a very difficult divorce case for me. She got the case only a few weeks before the final hearing. There were boxes of motions, minute entries, reports, emails and other potential exhibits. Shelley spent the time necessary to get up to speed on the case and prepared an excel...lent pre trial statement. With an overwhelming number of potential exhibits to submit, Shelley determined a strategy for the final hearing and submitted (what turned out to be) the proper exhibits for the hearing. The final hearing was a nine hour affair with twists and turns, and Shelley handled it all expertly. During the hearing Shelley looked like a pro. She had a complete command of the facts in the case. Shelley knew courtroom procedure, was excellent at examining and cross examining witnesses and interacting with the judge. Shelley was particularly well adept at thinking on her feet during cross and re directs. She looked and acted like a seasoned veteran. Before, during and after the hearing Shelley was a comfort. She kept me informed every step of the way. This was a long and contentious divorce, and Shelley made me feel like I had an advocate. I am completely satisfied with her professionalism, knowledge and interpersonal skills. I highly recommend Attorney Shelley Rosas to anyone going thru a divorce.

Thank you Casey for the kind review. Your situation was most certainly a challenging one and we did not have much time to present the story to the court in a way that would help the judge to fully understand your situation. I was pleased with the results for you. I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you and your family during that difficult time.

Rockstar!!

Shelley was very attentive to my case, making sure that I was kept up to date and informed every step of the way. My legal matter was a little different as a lot of the information was related to California Law so we had to make sure we did the things the right way which Shelley managed without hesi...tation. I would highly recommend her in an instant and appreciated working with her.
