Devin Weisberg gets positive results

I had a complex spousal situation involving my 4 year old and significant historical info that would be helpful. Devin listened to my story, which no one had, and formulated a strategy and plan to deliver what I told him was most important to me.

Complicated Situation - Out of state Client

I previously lived in California . I received physical custody of my son via a dependency court in San Diego in conjunction with moving to to Texas . I currently live in Texas. My son’s mother filed a case in LA county during the same time when I filed to register the case in my home county. My attor...ney in Texas and multiple attorneys I consulted were not sure how to handle the case . After consulting with Devin, I hired him to handle the matter in LA county after he throughly explained the law and how he would handle the matter . I have never had an attorney that was so responsive and explained every detail of the law and how it applied to the case. Fortunately, I was able to come to an agreement with my sons mother prior to actually having to go to court and we agreed to have the case dismissed . Had we gone to court I had complete confidence in Devin. I highly recommend him.

Excellent and considerate

Mr. Weisberg, supported me when I was in need promptly. He ensured that I was informed and that I was comfortable. I expressed that I was feeling uneasy about everything... this was very uncomfortable for me because I had never been in any trouble and I was in an unpredictable situation. He was court...eous and made sure that I felt as comfortable as I could feel. In the end, I had a positive experience, I couldn’t have done it without him. He didn’t give me false expectations, he was straight forward and honest. He made sure that I was able to see my kids again. I will forever be thankful.

Helping me out with my case

I was in a very tough position with my case and I am very grateful I was able to find Mr. Weisberg. Having him help my case was a big turn around from having no custody of my child to being able to split 50/50 with the mother. He is a great attorney and very professional with the way he handles situa...tions. Thank you!

Brought me and my family back together

I was working in L.A. when I received a call from an attorney which informed me that my wife was seeking a divorce, would retain our children, and would work to bar me from associating with them. I was devastated. We had been living in Israel, and I had come back to the U.S. for work. The wife and ki...ds were to follow. I received a call everyday from the kids counting down the days until we were all united. Four days before they were to fly back to the U.S., I was informed through an email by my wife that they would not be returning. My wife was staying overseas basically sequestering the children. After months of working and sending money to the family, I received the above phone call from her attorney. I called Mr. Devin Weisberg, in part due to his specialty in family law. I gave him the background information, including the name and number of my wife's attorney. About two weeks after Mr. Weisberg spoke with the attorney, I received a letter from my wife's attorney explaining that no action was to be taken against me--to disregard the former demand. I was elated. I flew to Israel and was reunited with my children. Ironically, my wife now seemed to have changed her mind, and we worked out a reconciliation. Honestly, I'm not completely sure what Mr. Weisberg said and did. However, he completely changed the course of my life in a positive way. I will always be grateful for his diplomacy. Enrique.D
