Amazingly well versed attorney that is quick to think, very strategic and resourceful.

Having my son was the happiest day of my life but the weeks and months after not so much. HIs father wanted no involvement in the pregnancy yet wanted 50% custody when he was born. Naturally, I was terrified. I contacted Elizabeth and she assured me right away the law was on my side. She quickly file...d paperwork to start the process and after 45 days had him paying me a sizeable amount of child support which up to that point he had refused. He and his attorney tried strong arming and playing hardball but Elizabeth would just very calmly state the facts and not give in or even get excited. She advised me every step of the way, answered every question and concern right away and got me EVERYTHING I was fighting for. She is a true class act!! An amazingly well versed attorney that is quick to think, very strategic and resourceful. Aggressive yet, calmly assertive is also very compassionate to boot. I couldn't have asked for more.

Child Custody Case

Unfortunately I had to go through a custody battle with my childrens father. I was given Elizabeths name from a close friend as a reference. I couldnt have been given a better person to help me through this difficult time. I felt she always had my best interest at hand. She kept me very informed and ...advised me what my options were. At no time during my case did I feel powerless, she worked with me and had the childrens best interest in mind. She was very professional and kind, I felt she had genuinine concern for me and my children. Elizabeth was always available for phone calls and returned emails back promptly. The staff at the attorneys office was always nice and helpful as well. If you are reading these profiles it is unfortunate that her services are needed, but I truly am thankful I came across Elizabeth and I am sure those who choose to retain Elizabeth will not be let down. She is a great person and a caring attorney. Good luck with your circumstances, Sincerely, A Grateful Mother

Patient and Knowledgeable Lawyer

"Over one year, I got involved in a family law matter. Since I had never been involved in such a process, I felt very confused and worried. Attorneys Elizabeth Briceno-Velasco and Vincent W. Davis had the knowledge, expertise and most importantly, PATIENCE, to break it all down to my level so that ...I could understand, which helped me tremendously. I was also very impressed with their knowledge of the court system in that they were able to accurately predict the outcome of my case. They fought hard to get me very good results. I am very happy with their legal services. If you are in a similar situation, I recommend that you contact them right away."
