the best firm ever

Paula Teske is the best there is. our case was a very difficult most of the other lawyers said it couldnt be done but Paula said it can be done. Together we all worked as one and was able to adopt my daughter. this is a case that hadn't ever been heard of. My daughter was removed from the house at a... very young age and all parental rights were terminated and she was adopted out. Now fast forward ten years and one day we get a call from DCFS asking if we would want to bring her home and readopt her. We said yes we would love to. So we started calling different lawyers and all but one said it was never going to happen, DCFS would never call the biological parent and try to reunite a family.Paula on the other hand said YES it can be done.Well it took two years and a lot of hoop jumping to please DCFS but WE DID IT. We officially adopted her in Feb 2015. Without Paula we would never have been able to bring our family back together.

Recommendation in Juvenile Dependency Case Involving Department of Child and Family Services

In September, 2012, I retained Paula Teske in the matter of Juvenile Dependency for a petition (s. 300) filed against us by the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS). Paula’s knowledge encompasses 30 years of experience in this area. She was professional, knowledgeable and confident in her i...nteractions with me as well as other attorneys and/or members of Superior Court of California of Los Angeles (Juvenile Court). Her compassion in dealing with our situation was truly appreciated. Knowing how to navigate the law in a Section 300 Juvenile Dependency Petition case is of the utmost importance. Paula guided me every step of the way. I would highly recommend her in cases involving Juvenile Dependency.

Excellent, competent, responsive, knowledgable, experienced, well connected Attorney at Law

As a Client in a very recent Adoption matter with the County of Los Angeles I found Paula Teske, Attorney at Law provided us with the most professional and competent legal support in this matter. Her services resulted in the adoption of two wonderful boys ages 7 and 11 years who were both recently a...dded to my wife's and my family. This was a difficult case, but Paula personally provided excellent and responsive support and was always willing to go the extra mile for our family. Paula is very familiar with the Family Court System, has many contacts and i consider her help in this matter to be very valuable. I strongly recommed that you not proceed with an adoption matter in Family Court without the help from a competent attorney who specializes in this field. It is a very complex process and Paula's help and experience was invaluable. We are pleased to report that the adoption of our two boys has been finalized and is in no small part to Paula's wisdom, expertise and aggressive advocacy.
