I highly recommend Rozanna!

Rozanna Velen came into my divorce 3 years in at a very difficult time. She was authentic, hard working, compassionate and one of the smartest lawyer I have met.. and I have met many. She finished my divorce when no one else could. She got us to mediation when I was told we’d have no choice but trial.... Rozanna and her team are fair yet powerful and they do it gracefully. I couldn’t be more grateful that Rozanna came into my life at the perfect time. I would recommend Rozanna and her team over and over again.

Finally some actual help!

Can't sing enough praise for the incredible honesty, efficiency and expertise of Rozanna & co. My case was long and difficult, with an unreasonable or non-engaging spouse (depending on the day). With 2 previous lawyers (and a few consulting) I had gone though a few years of useless "mediation" madnes...s, and ridiculous expense. Desperate, I asked around for someone to get the job done, and gratefully, a friend recommended Rozanna. Night and day! She gets the facts she needs from you, gets off the phone and goes to work. She guided me to an amazing resolution, with great strategies and a fraction of my previous costs. She refuses to just "run up your bill" -- which is what I experienced with everyone else. She's no-nonsense, gets to the point, and is frighteningly smart, with deep drawers of experience. Best of all, rather than assuring me that she "really cared me" or would "fight for me" (as the others seemed fond of doing), she simply, quietly, and elegantly just did it. Most importantly, she got me a great settlement -- far beyond what my previous lawyer said was possible. Thank you Rozanna. You're a God send!

Rozanna Rules

What I'll say about Rozanna Velen is that she doesn't waste words or time. This makes her very efficient which saves you money on her fees if you are prepared when you see her. She clearly knows California family law inside and out and is a no-nonsense negotiator. I really wish that my ex had agre...ed to mediation from the start but instead she decided to lawyer up. My defensive instincts told me to find a real shark to represent me and that's exactly what I found in Rozanna. Divorce is a no-win situation but Korol & Velen will help you cut your losses and move on. Their paralegals and office staff were professional, friendly, and very helpful.

Poor advocate and low level of service

Months between communications and lack of attention to case details. Unwilling to acknowledge errors. Letters to opposing counsel were vague and poorly drafted. Did not prepare requested documents. Despite web-site that indicates the firm uses alternative dispute resolution, she ignored multiple i...nquiries about possibility of mediation and did not, in a year and a half, even request a settlement conference with all parties.
