Latanya Sewell

Latanya helped me navigate the legal system in a very trying time in which I had very little time. She gave me the tools, the knowledge, and the assurance that everything was going to work out in my favor. And, in the end, everything worked out. I was more than happy with the counsel that I received... from Latanya. She was comfortable in the courtroom, and it was awesome watching her maneuver in her environment, i.e. the family law arena. Words cannot express how much I appreciated all of her efforts in helping me in my divorce. I strongly recommend Latanya to anyone who is looking to get a divorce in the LA area. Divorce sucks, but Latanya was truly amazing. Many thumbs up.

I was extremely lucky to come across Latanya, I could have not asked for better representation. Let’s stick to the facts: When I first looked at her reviews on Avvo there were only a couple, but I had faith as she was recommended by a very respected firm. Now I look on Avvo, and all I can say is w...ow, rising stock!!! Latanya took my case in 2014, my ex was trying to take sole custody of our 3 ½ year old son with the use of false allegations and trying to completely discredit me as a father. I cannot even express how thankful I am that our little man can now benefit from the structure and love a dad can provide. Latanya won joint custody for us in April 2016. The thing I respect the most is that she did not smear my ex and her past(the route the opposing party took), but she won by keeping it real making it about the child. Victory is one thing, but victory with truth is another. She puts together a smooth read for the judge, and has the skills to follow being able to litigate with the best. Little man now gets to enjoy his brother, sister, and dad on a regular bases. She is a great person who is great at what she does, Thanks Latanya!

Although, this message is to all parents, it is especially to the fathers! If you are in need of exceptional representation from an attorney who will take the time to listen to you; gain key facts and knowledge about your situation, and understand your custody rights as a father - then Latanya Sewel...l is the one who can do that for you. Ms. Sewell is a devoted attorney who is passionate, but means business when it comes to her clients. Her expertise and keen knowledge about family law worked in my favor. Not only is she a highly professional attorney, she was readily available to accept my phone calls and answered questions regarding my concerns during the process of my case. I advise you - do not enter the courtroom without her by your side. She can get the message to judge in order for him/her to understand that you are serious about obtaining custody of your child/children; visitations or whatever your request may be as it pertains to your rights as a parent and fairness to your child/children. I am so grateful that she realized the wellbeing and safety of my daughter. Not only does she care about her clients, she cares if your child/children have a quality of life surrounding genuine nurturing and love that every child deserves. Ms. Sewell, thank you. Your representation surpasses quality.

I highly recommend Mrs. Sewell to anyone that needs assistance with family law matters. I was in what I thought a very messy jurisdiction case involving two states. I called many attorneys and knew right away, after talking to Mrs. Sewell that she was the one I needed to represent my case. She was ve...ry professional and made me feel like there was hope. Mrs. Sewell is an expert in her profession and will take the time to update you on a daily basis and is reachable at any time, unlike many attorneys. She is kind and honest, yet aggressive if need be, which in my case at times she needed to be and I loved it because it not only showed that she was an attorney who knew what she was talking about but it showed that she meant business and would not allow people to take advantage of her or her client. My case was heard in court within 12 or 13 days of hiring Mrs. Sewell, and I was on my way back home with my child after only two weeks. Mrs. Sewell is the best in Los Angeles and very affordable, highly recommended!!!!

Latanya is the most amazing attorney I have ever had the esteemed pleasure of working with. I was fighting a losing custody battle for years when I was blessed with a referral to Latanya. During our initial consultation she quickly understood the situation that I was in without my having to re-expl...ain the facts several times, which was refreshing. She made very clear what she needed from me in order to be able to properly represent me. She answered all of my questions without hesitation, and was forthcoming with any information that I requested. She explained exactly what she was doing, why she was doing it, and how it would help my case. I never felt like I was in the dark as to what was going on, and due to Latanya's guidance I could easily understand the jargon during the hearings. She was the first attorney that I worked with that thoroughly reviewed ALL of my documents and filings, which was crucial to her being able to build a rock-solid case. She advised me on how facts are viewed under the law, and how different laws are applied. She was extraordinarily responsive and was always there for me when I needed help. She also advised me on how to properly conduct myself inside and outside of the courtroom so that I would not do any harm to my own case. She conducted herself with the utmost professionalism at all stages of the case and never wavered in her confidence that the facts of my case stood on their own merit. Latanya did in 5 months what other attorney's and myself could not do in 4 1/2 years. She planned her argument with every possible contingency in mind. She anticipated the opposition's arguments and strategies, and planned defenses and counterattacks like a true master in the art of argumentation. My case was very involved, complicated, and time sensitive. Latanya did everything in her power to expedite my matter, and made every accommodation to be there when I needed her. There were many times when I became discouraged and she was there to remind me that I, in fact, was justified in my stance, that the facts of my case support my position, and that I should strengthen my resolve. She never made any decisions for me, but gave me all of the facts, opinions, and advise that I needed in order to make my own judgement calls. When we would meet and confer she was always well prepared and ready to address any and all of my concerns. We seemed to be exactly on the same page as to how to handle the case, and which direction to take the case. I could not be more ecstatic with the results of my case, and I owe everything to Latanya's amazing talents. To be able to handle my case and win, while handling several other cases at the same time and also win those cases is truly amazing. Latanya is a rare breed of attorney and is also an overall joy to be around. She conveys an unwavering confidence that is contagious. She helps to calm courtroom nerves. She argued my case with severity and tenacity as if she was personally involved in my day-to-day struggle; like I would argue if I were an attorney arguing my own case with all of the emotion and conviction that I felt throughout the proceedings. She destroyed opposing counsels attempts to belittle my position and to impeach me. She is a pit bull in the courtroom and I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work with such an amazing person. If you need someone who will FIGHT for you, look no further!!! Latanya is by far THE BEST!!! THANK YOU LATANYA!!!!
