Welcome! My name is Stella Espinoza Browne. I am an attorney whose practice is limited exclusively to the area of Family Law. I practice throughout Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties.
---
My name is Stella Espinoza Browne. I am an attorney who focuses my firm exclusively on the practice of Family Law. My firm practices in courtrooms throughout Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside counties.
I have a background in Psychology and in Marriage and Family Therapy. With a strong counseling and advocacy background, I offer dignified, compassionate, and aggressive representation. I strongly believe that many cases can be resolved without the necessity of going to trial. However, when settlement is not possible, I have the experience to aggressively litigate cases quickly and efficiently.
To that end, I am strongly committed to providing personalized and professional representation to each client. Each case is unique and may require a different case strategy. While I cannot guarantee a particular outcome - no attorney can or should do that - I am committed to remaining accessible and providing personalized attention to each client.
My office is conveniently located in the city of Upland. I offer a free in-person consultation to personally discuss your case. This consultation will provide you with information to help you better determine the status of your case and your legal needs. I look forward to helping you win your case.

Divorcing with children.
For clarity, Ms. Brown represented my former spouse; I was self-represented during part of this case. Ms. Brown represented my former spouse during a custody matter in which I was self-represented for a period of time. During the proceedings, two of my children experienced serious physic...

I hired Ms. Browne when my life was falling apart. My marriage collapsed, I was having problems with my kids, my work was suffering, and I felt like I was losing my sanity!

Best decision I made for me and my kids
I knew from our first meeting that Ms. Browne cares about her clients and knows how to get results in court. She helped me through the divorce and custody battle. Thanks to her my children and I can start over.

Don’t trust her!!!
Absolutely untrustworthy... I hired Ms. Browne for my divorce ended up firing her within a month. She accumulated $10,000 in a matter of a month in attorney fees and ended up back to square one. She will literally eat you alive with no results!
