Professionalism at the highest level

I cannot say enough positive things about Lass Law and their exceptional team. Amy and her entire staff, especially Brooke, exemplify professionalism at the highest level. They are consistently punctual, detail-oriented, and highly responsive, which makes a meaningful difference in complex legal matt...ers. What truly sets Lass Law apart is their resolution-oriented approach and their ability to collaborate effectively, even in high-conflict cases. Amy demonstrates a balance of strategic thinking, calm leadership, and practical problem-solving. She keeps the focus on outcomes rather than escalation and ensures communication remains clear, purposeful, and centered on achieving the best possible result. Equally important, Lass Law operates with integrity. They do not take advantage of clients. While they are a higher-end firm, you truly get what you pay for: experience, efficiency, and honesty. Amy is direct and refreshingly candid. She sets realistic expectations, cuts through emotion, and provides grounded, straightforward guidance so clients can make informed decisions without false promises. If you are looking for a law firm that is professional, ethical, and results-driven, especially in high-conflict situations, Lass Law is outstanding.

divorce

no one wants to be in the difficult position of getting a divorce but Amy and her team made the process so much easier! after calling her office for help, she quickly went to work & got all of my paperwork filed with the courts extremely quickly. From start to finish, she made this complicated proces...s simple and as painless as possible. Amy is professional, efficient and empathetic. i would highly recommend her and her team to anyone in a similar position; in fact, i already told my friend to contact her team about his divorce. Life is hard enough as it is -- make it a little bit easier and less complicated by hiring and having Amy and her team on your side.

Amy Lass is an excellent divorce attorney!

Amy Lass is thorough, professional, and efficient. I hired her to handle my divorce. My ex-husband ended up firing his attorney and we just used Amy to finalize our divorce. She assisted us with finding solutions and ways to meet in the middle that left us both feeling we got what we deserved. Sh...e is an excellent listener and communicator. We finalized our divorce quickly and with the least amount of conflict possible in this situation. If it were not for Amy, I don't believe that would have been possible. I would recommend Amy Lass to any family member or friend.

Child support work

Amy and her team have been an amazing resource of help for us. She has been invaluable in the process of my divorce with two young children involved. We were able to come to very amicable solutions that both parties agreed on. This is exactly what you want when it comes to the kids not being in the... middle of an adult situation. We could not have asked for better legal advice and assistance.

The best attorney for a father. Please read my experience.

Today my life has been forever changed. I am a very proud father of a beautiful 3.5 year little girl. I have been in an extremely high conflict custody case for 3.5 years until today. My new reality still has not set in. I feel so unbelievably compelled to write this review because it was quite a jou...rney. Before contacting Amy Lass, I had contacted and interviewed over 75 attorneys all over southern CA. Let me tell you, it was an absolute nightmare. The worst part is they all wanted a $50,000 retainer and said there was very little hope to win my case. Because of this, I was self-represented for the majority of my case. I was up against a “mother favored” system, crooked attorneys and professionals that seem only to be in their positions because they were forced… so it seemed to me. I contacted Amy Lass outside of my court room because I saw her performance in a case just before mine and I decided to give it one last try at hiring an attorney. I’m glad I did! Today my ruling came out… I won my case!!!!!! When I hired Amy Lass, it seemed that I actually hired the entire firm! I went to court with a powerhouse team that was not only prepared but with the mind set to WIN! Amy and John lived this case with me almost as it was their own. The entire staff worked countless hours and left NO STONE UN-TURNED! Because of their diligence, I have my daughter and my rights. I don’t even call myself a client anymore, they are my friends that protected my family and fought with me, side by side. There was a lot at risk for them and me. No one want the risk before them and I am glad they didn’t. I didn’t just end up with the best law firm in California but I ended up with my daughter. This is the only law firm I would recommend. Thank you Amy, John and the entire team for correcting my life. Erik
