I highly recommend Ann Grant
I highly recommend Ann Grant for anyone going through a divorce. Her compassion and efficiency was so comforting during a very difficult time in my life. Although it was a collaborative divorce there were times things got heated and Ann was able to dissipate the tension with her calm demeanor. She protected me and made sure I received everything I was entitled to. I felt empowered having her on my side. Above all I felt she truly cared about me. I now have a life long friend and not just an attorney.

Divorce guru
I was referred to Ann Grant in 2020 when I filed for divorce. Ann was professional, honest and direct. She did not beat around the bush and waste my time, as every second counted $$$. My initial meeting with her took longer than anticipated because of my long list of questions, however she made time for me and never rushed me. My circumstances changed in the divorce process whereas my husband and I went thru a separate mediator instead of having individual attorneys. Ann stayed on retainer as a consultant for me whom I could run all my questions by. She gave me good information and suggestions on what and how to ask for things while going thru the mediation. She was a great guide and was flexible to continue to help me. The only 2 downsides: 1. she got very busy during my divorce process, but I just had to make an appointment ahead of time instead of spontaneous calls and 2. fees are very high, but you get what you pay for and she was worth it. She is still stellar and worth 10 stars -I have referred others to her !

Integrity, Expertise and Compassion
Ann Grant and Brittney Stone are consummate professionals. They always took the time to actively listen to me and validate my questions and concerns with their thoughtful responses. They provided timely, and stellar legal advisement throughout my case, delivering their counsel with compassion and care. They have a very qualified team, from the front office staff to the paralegals to the billing department who always treated me with kindness and patience. I recommend Ann Grant and her practice wholeheartedly.

I could not have asked for a better experience during a difficult time and it was because of the work that Ann Grant and her team put into getting my case closed. I never had any doubt that they would work to get me the best possible outcome, and they did. My questions were answered promptly & my fear of the process was eliminated after my first discussion with Ann. Despite challenges presented because of COVID, my process flowed smoothly. Ann and Brittney Stone made sure that everything was in order and completed in a timely manner. Their understanding of family law is vast, there were no questions that went unanswered. If you are looking for a lawyer and a law firm that will walk you through the process from start to finish, Ann Grant and her team are where you should go. I never felt lost or confused by the law because it was explained to me clearly and in a way that I could understand. For such a life changing experience to be handled so cleanly was a gift. I knew that I was in the best hands possible and that proved to be true. There are not enough stars to rate how pleased I was with Ann Grant, Brittney Stone and their entire team. If you are in need of Family Law I highly recommend reaching out to Ann Grant.

Tough and successful with her heart in it
To have Ann Grant on my side made all the difference. She is very focused and extremely well organized. Divorce is so emotional and Ann incorporates Financial Advisers and Therapists for her clients. It makes the process easier and more efficient. Ann is a fighter with a heart for her case.

Incredible Support through Challenging Experience
Getting divorced is not something anyone wants to do, but I am lucky to have found Ann and her professionalism, knowledge, and friendship through a tough time. She was always kind, reasonable, and an incredible human through something that I hope to never do again... but she made it manageable. She is an excellent person to talk to and work with, and she also has as great sense of humor (this helps a lot :). Five big stars and my thanks indefinitely. Thank you Ann!!

Achieves the BEST outcome for your case
In my high-conflict divorce case, Ann consistently and successfully negotiated with my ex's attorney to keep our case out of court and achieve the best possible outcome. I was so grateful that she kept the conflict as low as possible. When we were forced to appear in front of the judge on a few occasions, her exceptional litigating skills shone a light on the underhanded tactics of my ex and his attorney.

Ann is your go to lawyer if you want a lawyer with immense knowledge about family law and shrewd negotiating skills. Yet what sets her apart is her emotional intelligence she knows when to offer compassion and when to push her clients to stand up for themselves.All of these assets make her a world class divorce attorney !

Passionate and compassionate advocate
The first thing I noticed about Ann was her ability to listen. She REALLY listens. I felt heard and comforted. Her approach is thoughtful and appropriate. She would check in with me on her own accord, she was very responsive to e-mails, and she turns work product around quikcly. On top of it all, she is professional and well-respected in the community; she has a great reputation before the Court. Highly recommend!

Family Law
I have worked with Ms.Grant on a number of legal matters over the years. She did an outstanding job handling a complex and high-profile international litigation matter. I also hired her to help me with a personal family law matter. She demonstrated broad subject matter knowledge and efficiency in helping me achieve success in a difficult child custody matter. I was delighted with her work and referred others to her who were also involved in divorce cases. The people I referred were equally satisfied with her excellent work and outstanding results. Ms. Grant combines superior intellect, efficiency and dedication to her clients throughout the entire process. She remains focused on the best possible outcome for her clients until the case is settled or litigated. She is exceptionally qualified to handle any and all family law matters and has all the skills and attributes to confidently take on high conflict and complex cases. She is always well prepared and meticulously attentive to detail. I recommend and endorse Ms. Grant without hesitation.

Best family law team in the South Bay
Many people told me, my divorce is better than any movies or shows. Not only it was an unfortunate event, but the situation only escalated and progressively gotten worst. Ann's team have revealed many secrets that the ex were hiding during marriage. I was traumatized and deeply wounded from everything. I also had children to care for on my own with no support. Ann's team stepped in and went and fought for me and my children while I was weak and unable to fight. They came in and tracked every possible evidence and supporting documents they can find. Worked with me very closely on each step along the way. Furthermore, they provided me a lot of emotional support and guided me through all the process. Ann and her team were not just attorneys representing their client. They showed that they cared and they want the best results for my family. They delivered above and beyond results for my children and myself. They knew when to push and when to stay put. Their professionalism and expertise with family law was amazing and cannot be match anywhere else. I would like to say a special thank you to Brittney Stone. The most talented, amazing, sweet, beautiful, and fight like a tiger attorney. She is truly the best on the team and I cannot say enough appreciation to Brittney! Thank you Ann and the wondering legal team at MB family law!

Lawyer who knows a woman’s needs when going through a divorce!
Ann has been such a support for me going through a divorce with someone I’ve been with since I was a kid. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever had to deal with and she has been incredibly compassionate and caring during this trying times. She’s all about helping and not about making money like all lawyers tend to be and have that reputation. I feel so blessed to have her! Thank you Ann from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Ann has made divorce a less stressful process!
I was impressed with Ann from the moment we met for my consultation. She was knowledgeable, professional and compassionate with everything I was going through and always provided fair and thoughtful advice with what is allowed and acceptable in the legal system. Although, I had anticipated my divorce process to be amicable, along the way things turn contentious and that's when Ann stepped in and made sure my needs and rights were met and that I was not being taken advantage of. She is super smart and I knew she had my best interest at heart. I knew I had a good attorney when my ex referred to her as a bulldog! Hopefully, I will not need her services again, but I am so glad I had her and the team on my side!
