Cannot recommend Joel enough
I found myself tangled in a divorce case that could have been scripted for a Hollywood horror story. The opposing counsel painted me as the next James Bond of business and investments – except that their story was purely fiction. If the judge had bought into the plot, I would have faced financial r...

Joel S. Seidel, and his team are excellent Family Law Attorney's. My case involved spousal support termination at the age of 65.

Phenomenal & Professional
Mr. Seidel is by the far the BEST ATTORNEY I’ve worked with and is highly recommended by other lawyers I know. He’s insightful, efficient with time, responsive with all forms of communication, and so vast in his knowledge and experience with the law.

A true Family Law Attorney you can count on to get the job done

"Joel is patient, courteous and knows how to diffuse very contentions situations. It's no wonder why he is a certified family law specialist by the State Bar of California."
"I have known Joel for over 25 years. He treats clients with the utmost respect and has extensive knowledge in all facets of family law. He is one of the few attorneys that I trust with my referrals."
"Joel is an emotionally intelligent family law attorney, something I don't see very often. He understands the importance of facilitative mediation in family law, something that involves de-escalating conflict, improving communication between the parties, and actual problem-solving. He's assertive and not unnecessarily aggressive. Study after study has shown that a facilitative approach typically leads to higher quality outcomes from the clients' perspective. He's also extremely well-versed in family law and is skilled at managing his clients' expectations. If I were still litigating cases, I'd likely handle my cases in a similar manner."
