Betsy is Amazing

I first came to Betsy after a year and a half of court proceedings with an abusive ex and needed some money I could count on that would be clear-headed, diligent, punctual, and as passionate about resolving the case as I was. Betsy not only made sure she was available whatever I had a question or nee...ded her to the best of her ability but also she was willing to work with my family and gave us fair pricing on every service she offered. She gave us clear and concise detailed description of every proceeding and prepared me for what may come. She trusted my judgment and listened to every concern, which allowed for better partnership and outcome in each hearing. Betsy is a true asset in the community and continues to help my family to obtain the best outcome in our situation. It is rare to find such a trustworthy, transparent, clear-minded and direct lawyer and Betsy is a great relief to have as my representation.

My saving grace!

Betsy has been my saving grace through the most hellacious time in my life. She has been fair with payments and pricing as she knows that I am struggling financially. She has taken phone calls and texts at crazy times and has even called while she was assisting her son with homework when I was in a... panic. She takes her time and explains what may or may not happen. Neither of us knew my case would take a turn the way it has and she has gone above and beyond to get me what I deserve for my children. I recommend her to everyone I know!

DO NOT HIRE

Betsy WAS a great family attorney at first fighting hard for me and my child but then her work load increased and she got a little scatterbrained showing up late to hearings and not listening to what I wanted her to fight for. I regret hiring this woman, she charged me every month and when I would as...k about certain charges she would get defensive and when I needed her most she was a disappointment. PLEASE, PLEASE do your research and dont trust this attorney, she was a disappointment I am now having to pay for in the long run.

Intelligence, efficiency, and professionalism

Ms. Salcedo was incredible, and I highly recommend her. She took time and care to understand my situation, brought her knowledge and experience to my case (uncontested divorce), and stayed in contact to explain the process and documents. The case was resolved in a very efficient manner, and I am so... grateful for her work.
