Alexandra the Great: The Attorney Who Made a Difference

I had a previous attorney who charged significantly more and accomplished very little within a year. In just five minutes with Alexandra, I experienced more progress than I had in the entire previous year. Alexandra is exceptionally intelligent and truly knows her field. As a father residing in Texas... and my daughters living in California my case is complex but my daughters faced a traumatic situation. My previous attorney claimed nothing could be done, and court proceedings would take another six months. Alexandra acted swiftly and decisively, securing a court date within a week. Thanks to her efforts, I was granted temporary sole physical and legal custody of my daughters. I have full confidence in Alexandra and her team. If not for her, I wouldn't have my daughters safe with me today.

Great attorney!

I highly recommend Alexandra for her exceptional legal expertise and unwavering dedication. Her strategic approach, attention to detail, and effective communication made a significant impact on our case. A true professional who goes above and beyond for her clients.

Best Atttorney in San Diego 5+

Alexandra Mcintosh has represented me in a high conflict custody case for over 3 years now. The father has taken us to court more than 30 times, including a two day trial. It took 2 attorneys to go up against Ms.McIntosh and we still came out with 92% custody. She is unbelievable, dedicated, knowle...dgeable, empathetic, experience, and a true fighter! I am forever grateful and blessed! Alexandra Mcintosh you are the best. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Outstanding

I am an attorney. I was referred to Alexandra McIntosh by a colleague. The representation I received was A+. My case did not have an issue that was not litigated. Each individual issue was strategized appropriately, but was strategized for a maximum optimal outcome. Regarding each issue, she be...gan with what issues we may be able to come to an agreement, or what were out weakest positions. Alexandra tried to solve those issues by agreement. In the end, the other side refused to agree to anything. In the end, I prevailed on each issue. She was well versed on every issue. Her litigation strategy was exactly what it should have been and in the end, I prevailed on every single issue. In fact, in some cases, when presented with the worst outcome and the best outcome scenario, we prevailed on the best outcome scenario. Even though I am an attorney, when going through the process, I was a client. Is she tough. Yes. Is she straight forward. Yes. Was it expensive. That is relative. The cost was significantly less than I would have ever expected because each and every move that was made was strategic and necessary. Alexandra is a lawyers lawyer and you cannot and will not got wrong with her representation
