Posted by anonymous | August 11, 2016 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Divorce Attorney

I would highly recommend Derek Tran as a divorce attorney. He makes a difficult process as easy and clean as possible. I felt taken care of as a client in that he always clearly explained the process/legal jargon and responded to any of my questions promptly.

Great Attorney

I hired Mr. Tran to draft a prenup. He was very informative and knowledgeable of the process, and walked me through the steps of how this process works. I was informed of everything through the entire process. He promptly returned my calls and emails. From start to end, I was extremely sati...sfied with Mr. Tran's service.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
