A Total Godsend!

There are times in your life when you know that God has blessed you. In my case, I can only say that I am absolutely thrilled with the help that I have received from attorney Beatriz Pelayo-Garcia. I was looking at being evicted because I was not receiving any child or spousal support. While I was... barely making any money and could not get ahead because I could not afford to pay daycare to be able to work, my ex was having a great time keeping the $8k+ a month that he would make without supporting his family. It was so easy for him to just walk away and not look back – regardless of how we were struggling just to live. With so little left to lose, I thought I would just step out on faith and talk to a few attorneys about my options. I met with several attorneys, but none were as real or caring as Beatriz Pelayo-Garcia. Also, it was clear to me that she was not motivated by the money, but I that I felt an instant connection to someone who know what she was doing on account of her expertise in Family Law. I borrowed what I could from friends and family members and have never regretted it since as it has paid off in volumes. Not only have I started to receive SIGNIFICANT amounts of child and spousal support, Beatriz Pelayo-Garcia also got him to pay for my attorney’s fees as well. Perhaps the best part was that my attorney found money that he had stashed away and I was able to get a lot of that money! Now. I am off to a new life and my kids are doing well! Beatriz, you will never know how grateful I am for your constant fighting for me when I needed it the most! God bless you!

Ms. Pelayo-Garcia's outstanding acuity in the complex family law environment guided us to a fast resolve of our child's visitation issues. This has made a tremendous difference to our child's and family quality of life. I'm very grateful for her expertise and quick action in a process that resolved o...ur child's situation.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
