Great representation

Going through a divorce is stressful, due to Mrs. Briceno's experience and expertise my stress was minimized. She knows the law and the court system and anticipated any challenges we faced from opposing counsel or the court. My divorce was complicated with substantial assets involved. Mrs. Briceno... did a great job protecting me and my assets. She's kind, honest and caring. I will always appreciate her representation and friendship.

Worth every penny!

I was so worried about finding a good lawyer and Elizabeth was referred to me by a friend. She was a God send, she explained everything to me and gave me very realistic scenarios. She made the paperwork easy to fill out and submit. At such a stressful time in my life she made getting through it ea...sy. She is such a sweet, caring woman but don't let that fool you, she's tough yet professional when needed. She was worth every penny! Thank you Elizabeth!

Completely dependable and trustworthy!

At the point in your life that you'll need a family law attorney, most likely it's not an easy time in your life. Mrs. Briceno makes the process so much more bearable and you know you're in good hands from start to finish. She explains everything thoroughly and in great detail. She gives you great le...gal advice, but ultimately let's you make the final decision. I can't say enough great things about Mrs. Briceno. I'm very grateful I was referred to her and had her throughout this legal process. Her staff is great as well. I dealt with Samantha on a lot of the paperwork and she is just as effecient as mrs. Briceno is. If you are looking for a family law attorney, I HIGHLY recommend Mrs. Briceno's law firm!

Outstanding Legal Representation!

I hired Mrs. Briceno to represent us in a domestic violence case. My initial goal was to get protection for my sister and her children, without any knowledge of any court process whatsoever. She was extremely professional since day one, resourceful, focused, very involved in the case and not to ment...ion kind to my sister whom was in a very distressed state. I have to say I was impressed by her strong performance in the courtroom, not only did she get a prolonged protection order for my family but custody of the children as well. I highly recommend Mrs. Elizabeth Briceno.

Posted by Erica | April 04, 2013 | Child Custody

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.
