Extremely pleased with outcome

I’ve had multiple attorneys represent me but none like Pierre. He is very personable yet extremely sharp and effective with legal strategies. Him and his legal team always make themselves available and work very efficiently to ensure timely processing. They have genuine care for your wellbeing and yo...ur children involved.

Pierre Domercq is a good and honest attorney. Pierre will look out for your best interest and do the right thing. I can't say that about most N County attorneys. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone needing help in the family law arena.

The best lawyer you will find

was in a high conflict custody battle that left me in complete disarray. After hiring another "great" attorney who completely failed me, I found Pierre and Rebecca. Lifesavers would be an understatement. My ex had spent 10 years building a case while I thought we were working together for the best i...nterest of our children, to say the least, he had a ton of nit-picky stuff to use against me. When I found Pierre he made me feel like I was finally heard, he was so welcoming and actually listened to all the background. Then he decided to bring in the brilliant paralegal Rebecca, she is pure gold, this team went beyond my expectations! Before meeting these two I was unaware of what good legal representation can do for you, they made my case clear and got the results that were in the best interest of my children. They are worth every penny! If you want a lawyer and staff that will make you feel like family and give you confidence that you are being represented fully, this is the law firm you want.

Excellent Lawyer and great Paralegals

Pierre cares about getting the best most reasonable outcome in you case. I have been very happy with Pierre and his team. He has been patient with me and my very difficult case. I recommend Burke and Domercq for anyone who wants someone to fight for them in court.

Superior Representation

I came to Pierre after my case had been continued 16 months. Pierre had the case in front of a judge within a month and was able to secure an order during the first hearing. His extensive knowledge in family law is invaluable and provide me with such confidence heading into court. I felt firmly re...presented and secure during cross examinations and throughout the duration of the trial. Pierre is friendly, respectful, and aggressively pursues/defends his client's positions within their legal rights. Pierre exceeded my expectations.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Without reservation, I endorse Pierre A. Domercq in the area of family law. As a corporate attorney going through a difficult custody dispute, Pierre was honest, timely and compassionate in helping me understand my options as a single, unmarried father. He also provided important insight into the structure of family law and how I can best approach my case while keeping my daughter's well-being at the forefront of the issue. If anyone is having custody or other family law disputes in the San Diego area, I would strongly suggest reaching out to Pierre for assistance."
