Maria P Diaz

I was David vs Goliath. My ex had a powerful family and stacked the deck against me, and I thought I would never get to have my son. My ex and her family had done everything they could to keep me and my son seperated. I had nobody to help me. Maria was able to prepare me and guide me through the sca...riest part of the legal system; and without her I WOULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN THROUGH IT. I cannot overstate how grateful I am for her help. she is incredible and fought for me. Do not hesitate to call her.

My boyfriend and I needed an extremely competent Family Law Attorney... We were so grateful to have found Maria Diaz at Mesnik Law who surpassed our expectations! She understood exactly what needed to be done to help us win our case which we did win. She kept us well informed through the process, ans...wered her phone and emails promptly whenever we had questions, made sure we always understood each other, was thoroughly knowledgeable and professional, and on top of all that she was genuinely compassionate and kind which helped this whole ordeal much easier to get through. I would highly recommend Maria Diaz at Mesnik Law if you ever need a Family Law Attorney! 10 stars!

In April of last (2015) year my wife filed for divorce. In an effort to push me out of the house and out of her and our 3 year old son's life, My wife then obtained a DV restraining order and made CPS allegations against me..I was unrepresented and facing losing my son yet again. Then I found Maria. ...She was an angel sent from God! She knew how to defend me against the onslaught of the system and protect me from losing my son. Not only did she get me my son back but she defended me against the false allegations by my wife. I only wish I had found her sooner. Before I found Maria, I looked into lawyers that wanted ungodly amounts of money and I paid through the nose for no help at all!! Maria worked hard and put together a case so airtight that opposing counsel settled last minute out of court the day before trial. Her rates were reasonable and affordable. She deserves more! I would recommend Maria to anyone. She is the type of attorney that destroys the cliche and renews your faith in the system. She truly is a rare personality for an attorney. She was honest, caring, and went above and beyond in all she did for me. Because of her, I can regain and strengthen the bond with my son.

Attorney Maria Diaz has helped my wife and me to obtain legal guardianship of my nephew. My nephew’s family lives in New York; his mother has been ill and unable to care for him; and his father has a full-time job with long daily commute to work. With excellent in-depth knowledge of the law and cou...rt proceedings, Maria petitioned for my nephew when he had been living in my California home for only 2 months. As typically an out-of-state child has to reside in California for 6 months before guardianship filing, Maria had to do extra work to file petition to the court. Due to her ability to successfully argue in court and her thoroughness and accuracy, the guardianship process went smoothly through initial hearing, Family Court Services interview and final hearing without a glitch, despite the complexity in nephew’s family composition and other matters. And after all the work she had done, we were surprised to see that she charged very reasonable attorney fees. We are grateful to Ms. Maria Diaz for her genuine care for her clients and compassion for our nephew. She often worked long hours for our case and we appreciate it very much. I strongly recommend Ms. Maria Diaz to anyone who is in need of obtaining guardianship and other matters in her practice. Jimmy
