Michele M Vallat

I retained the WRF law firm, and was assigned Val to handle my custody update case. Val was very professional and easy to work with, and kept in constant contact with me despite her full case load. I never felt as though I was "just another case" - she took the time to explain things thoroughly, an...d made sure I understood all of the options and outcomes during the proceedings. Everything went very smoothly, and I was able to successfully get the custody arrangement I wanted. I'm very grateful to the firm and Val, and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for Family Law assistance.

Val represented me through my divorce. I was married 30 years with my ex husband being the main breadwinner for years and the only breadwinner through most of my now adult children’s lives. Val was very efficient at getting me alimony and back alimony ASAP. She helped me navigate through all the fina...ncial stresses with fairness and keeping my costs down. In addition, she helped me get through the emotional toll divorce takes on a person. My ex even found her to be fair. Val has a gift that goes beyond her legal expertise. As some of the other reviews stated, she is easy to talk to and explains what is happening every step of the way. She is prompt to return calls or emails. I would highly recommend her!

Divorce is the worst thing you're going to go through. 99% of the time you dislike your ex. If you're going to get a divorce lawyer who really represents your interest look no further than Michele Vallat. Michele understood the misery I had been going through for four long years. I had been accuse...d of molesting my son, abusing him, & a victim of two cold and calculated fabricated TRO's. Finally after four years Michele and her firm achieved what I thought was the impossible. My ex wife, "The Teflon Mom" lost her joint custody. Now I have primary custody. I was vindicated! Michele Vallat handled the situation professionally and correctly. She kept me in check and I was always made aware of what we being done on my behalf. Divorce is difficult and it doesn't matter whether you're the husband or wife. What matters is that it gets handled right the first time. I had three lawyers represent me prior to Michele. What a colossal waste of time and money. Do yourself a favor and meet with Michele and her firm. You'll be glad you did!

I had an extremely lengthy and difficult family law case. I started the journey with high powered, expensive lawyers from Los Angeles and changed to a different San Diego law firm. Neither of them accomplished one thing for me and caused me huge financial losses and emotional distress. Off the referr...al of a friend I tried Ms. Vallant's firm not expecting a lot. When "Val" and I started working together we immediately hit it off. She was incredibly knowledgable on family law and her personality is very easy to work with. Definitely not the attitude I have grown to hate in 99% of other attorneys that think they know everything and really just have a overblown ego and are idiots. When Val first started working with me she ask me what my ultimate goal was and we made a long term plan to work towards it. SHE GOT IT DONE. I am happy to report that Val accomplished what $900 an hour lawyers could not. We took small steps toward the big picture and I ultimately got what worked best for myself and my children. I would not hesitate to recommend Val in high profile, move away, or any other family matter. She will get it done and not give up!
