Angela Gochenour Buono

Angela Buono and her team have been serving me, for almost 3 years, in a contentious divorce process involving child custody. Her knowledge of the law, professionalism, combative attitude, patience and "open ears" approach are some of the major hallmarks that I have recognized on her, as a client, ov...er the years. Needless to say that these same characteristics well define the culture of the Buono team itself, well exemplified by Tom and Nathalia. I have no hesitations to recommend this reputable and highly professional team to those who are in need of legal support, particularly in the area of family law.

We normally are always leery of attorneys and finding the right person to represent us is confusing and many times, we are not their best interest. I contacted Angela for custody difficulties with my ex-husband months before hiring. I was trying to see if I need a lawyer because I believed ...my ex was mentally abusing my daughter. Angela spend almost an hour telling me my options and was very open and helpful. She gave me useful, solid suggestions without making me feel obligated to retain her services. The second time I contacted her, my ex was abusive towards my daughter during Covid shutdown and I was trying to get full custody . I was attempting to file a restraining order by myself. Angela and her team worked on it last minute to ensure that my restraining order went through successfully and laid the ground work for full custody. Afterwards, she also gave me different options to proceed. Now, my daughter is back with her father with half custody and things are going very well. This is a success story. Does Angela's team knowledgeable and can get things done? Of course, but so can other attorneys, right?. What makes Angela and her team so different is the support and sympathy they gave when we are stressed, confused and scared. They are genuine and compassionate, the bed side manner we all need when we are in pain and scared. I have used other lawyers, one of the top ones in San Diego during my divorce and honestly, he was very basic and treated me like a small fish. He gave no suggestions, very casual towards my case. And also very expensive!! I am so fortunate to have Angela fight for me and have recommended her to my coworkers. Without any doubt, whenever and if I ever need any services, etc, I will not hesitate to call Angela and her team.

i like her at first because she was straight forward but she does have an attitude at times. and i tried to ignore that. But since last year 2020 she either busy and doesn't get back to you. i paid her already 6 grand for two child support cases. now that i need her for custody she hasn't been able ...to help me proceed with anything. I found Angela on Avvo and saw that she had great reviews but very disappointed.

Angela was recommended by a colleague when I needed help the most. When it comes to your kids, everyone wants someone who is knowledgeable and aggressive when needed. Angela took my case and hit the ground running. I remember after one of my court hearings we were stopped by a couple who were looking... for representation and asked for her number because of how well she handled my case. I knew I had someone special on my side and was able to get the outcome I wanted. Then fast forward to 3 years later when I was in need of help again with a different case and knew I needed Angela to represent me. Angela is professional, compassionate, works hard and strategically, and is always available when you need to communicate something about your case. She did not nickel and dime me for every little thing like some other lawyers I had to deal with that also made me feel like I was wasting their time and had to terminate their services. I’m blessed to have had Angela recommended to me and now I too highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a lawyer that practices Family Law.
