All show

Ms. Ochoa represented me for over a year in a divorce. She initially describe my case as a piece of cake. I believed her because she was recommended and more expensive than most other family lawyers. After spending over $80k she was unable to negotiate anything on my behalf. She also had a habit of... saying things like “you can always get another lawyer” p, when I asked questions she didn’t like. She was arrogant and difficult to work with in general.

Yvette is the best!

I had an excellent experience with Farzad and Ochoa Family Law Attorney’s handling of my divorce case. Yvette Ochoa managed my case and I couldn’t more pleased with her performance. She gave me sage advice on my settlement options and crafted a comprehensive offer that in the end was satisfactory to ...both parties. My wife’s attorney was Hell bent to take me to court. With much help from Yvette, we were able to settle out of court. Importantly, I found her very accessible by phone, in person or email. I highly recommend Yvette and her practice.

Highly recommend

After researching Family Law firms for months, I came across Yvette and her staff. After reading their bio and a lengthy strategy meeting I knew I could trust Yvette and her staff to guide me. During what seemed the longest process of my life-- my confidence in Yvette and her staff never lacked. ...They all remained patient and professional in what can be the most stressful time. Thank you, Yvette!

Cant Go Wrong!

Great attorney! I had never needed representation before my divorce and had no idea what the process was or how to go about it. With the help of Yvette Ochoa, my case was settled precisely as she had laid it out according to my wishes and agreements with my estranged wife. I would highly recommend Y...vette if you are looking for a divorce attorney.
