Ms. Neiman was my lawyer and I AM a lawyer

Amy Neiman was my lawyer in my divorce and she was excellent. We settled our case at a mandatory settlement conference with her help. She really knows what she's doing--she's a certified specialist with plenty of experience. Not only was she my lawyer, I have referred others to her. I have read so...me of the other (poor) reviews on this site, and I must say that these types of reviews are typically posted by people who are angry because they did not get their way in court, or because they believe they understand the law when in fact they do not. Do not believe these reviews--they are disgruntled litigants just trying to get back at Ms. Neiman. Note that in each bad review, Ms. Neiman did not represent THEM, she represented their children AGAINST them. That is why they are angry... she likely did a great job for the children she represented.

Highly recommended

Amy was my attorney in a difficult divorce involving a husband with severe mental illness. She advocated strongly for custody arrangements that protected my child from exposure to his ongoing dangerous behavior. She explained court processes and document preparation clearly. This helped in a signific...ant way with what was a terrible situation.

Amy Neiman is a Smart, Tough and Fair Attorney

Attorney Amy Neiman provided invaluable assistance in my painful divorce from my husband of 25+ years. She is very smart, knowledgeable about the law, fair, tough when she needs to be, and honest in her billing practices. She is also easy to reach by telephone and responds promptly to inquiries.

Child custody lawyer | Jun 20

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Amy Neiman for a long time, and have consulted with her on many matters. She is a very experienced family law attorney, especially with respect to child custody issues. She has an excellent reputation in the community and is most highly qualified, as evidenced by her certificate as a family law specialist, which is awarded only to lawyers by the State Bar of California who meet their rigorous requirements. I recommed Amy Neiman highly."
