Ruth Lynn Estep

Ruth is the best attorney experience we have had. She is a true professional. She was completely prepared for our case. She truly cared about us and the children involved. Ruth is very honest and tells you what is real. She has so much experience and she doesn’t play games. I’ve (sadly) worked with s...everal family law attorneys and Ruth is the very best. We live in the Midwest and Ruth handled our case in California with compassion and expertise. She made sure not a moment of our time was wasted. She ended our case quickly and expertly which saved some of the children involved from have to endure the pain of testifying in court. Another attorney in the court that day said “Ruth did an outstanding job and handled the case gently but with a hugely forceful effect. “ We agree! Ruth has our eternal gratitude for helping us through this difficult experience.

Our family has worked with Ruth for many years. Our family law case was considered very high conflict and with on-going trials and she has always demonstrated professionalism in and out of the courtroom. My wife and I were very impressed at her ability to take control of the courtroom. Ruth knew whe...n to be patient and when to deliver; which we learned is a priceless quality given the courtroom tension. The judges always seemed to respect her input. She is clearly passionate for what she does and we were always confident in her. Her ability to "recreate" any particular situations through her writing, made it easy for the court to understand the relevant information right off the bat. Great firm to have on your side. We highly recommend Ruth Estep.

Ruth was referred to me by a friend who had recently gone through a divorce. I am a Dad who is fully engaged in his children's lives and Ruth has helped me maintain that role and retain custody. Ms. Estep is highly knowledgeable in all aspects of family law. She was available 24 hours per day for... me and has been responsive with each crisis that has arisen throughout the process. Ms. Estep has looked out for my best interests and my children's as well. I highly recommend Ms. Estep for anyone going through a divorce or separation. Because of her expertise and efforts I have retained custody of my children and remain indebted to her. -An Appreciative Father

I hired Ruth to help me with my divorce and custody. From the very beginning is was quite evident that she was very knowledgable and respected. I had worked with another lawyer in which frankly I lost all hope that I would be able to regain my son's custody. But from the very initial meeting with Ru...th I could see that she had extensive experience in the field. She always maintained open communication and guided me throughout the whole process. She gave me a sense of security and newfound hope. She had no problem going over information with me and making me feel ready for our court visits. When we entered the courthouse EVERYONE knew Ruth, you could see the respect her peers had towards her and that people valued her as an attorney. In my opinion she is the best family attorney. I highly recommend her and would hire her again if I needed to.

Ms. Estep thinks fast on her feet remembering details that make a big difference in court. She has been compassionate with me and my family and made us feel she was always on our side. She speaks honestly about the realities of court and prepared me for the most intelligent way to navigate it durin...g what has most definitely been the most challenging time of my life. Ruth is an assertive, dedicated, and ethical attorney. Ms. Estep was better in court than the overpriced "celebrity" lawyer we were up against!
