Fought For My Future AND WON!

I don’t even know where to start… but I will start with one woman, and her name is Attorney Danielle Linker! She is, hands down, the baddest (and I mean in a good way) attorney I have ever witnessed in my life. My divorce didn’t start with an attorney. I started with a paralegal because “I thought...” it would be an open-and-shut case. I assumed my ex would comply, but he did not—he wanted money out of my home. When I realized a fight was what he wanted, I knew I needed someone talented who truly knew the court system inside and out, to include my County. After reading countless reviews for several law firms, I landed on Bratton & Razo. The moment I met with Danielle Linker, her strategy was exactly what I wanted, and I retained them on the spot. I had no idea this process would take six long years - no fault of Bratton & Razo. In the midst of it all, I went through three major surgeries and lost both my mom and my dad. Through all that grief, Danielle never let me lose hope. On top of everything else, my ex decided to marry another woman *before* our divorce was even final. Yes, I had to deal with him being a bigamist! Danielle’s strategy was simple: she said don’t say anything, and don’t call the police. I didn't want to comply at first, but I hired her for her expertise, so I followed her advice. Long story short: The day before our final trial, Danielle fell incredibly ill with strep throat. She texted me on a Sunday to let me know she didn't know if she could make it, and that if she couldn't, someone else from the firm would step in to file a continuance. Of course, I immediately went into prayer for her health. Danielle told me she would text me by 10 or 11 AM the next morning to let me know her status. Lo and behold, who comes walking into the courtroom lobby? Nobody but Danielle! She’d texted me saying she felt better, and I am telling you, she didn't even look sick (though she wore a mask so she wouldn’t spread anything). When she arrived, she saw my ex sitting in the lobby, walked right up to him, and professionally—but firmly—let him have it for hanging up in her face weeks prior; I knew right then and there that we were going to win. When we got into the courtroom, my ex fully assumed I would have to pay him something out of the equity of my home. But I am writing this review to tell you that I did not have to pay him one red cent! He got absolutely nothing, and I walked away with everything. It was a combination of Danielle's brilliant tactics and the power of God prevailing in that courthouse on my behalf. We walked out of that courtroom in 20 minutes flat with my house secured in my hands. Bratton & Razo is second to none. If you are looking for a law firm to represent you, please do not waste your time looking anywhere else. Everyone in the office is kind, patient, and truly listens. Even if you ask the exact same question over and over again, they will answer you with grace. I am so deeply grateful to Danielle Linker for how she fought for me and how she showed up for me. I later found out that her own mother told her she was too sick to go to trial that morning. Danielle told her mom—and I’m trying to hold back tears just typing this—"That woman has been waiting six years for this divorce to be finalized. I cannot let her down." I cannot tell you how grateful I am. Danielle is my girl—she is my ride-or-die. She fought for me, and if you need someone to fight for you in a divorce, please do not waste your time. And please, don't try to nickel-and-dime the attorney fees, because they are worth every single penny. I appreciate them and thank God from the bottom of my heart for such a wonderful firm as Bratton & Razo, and of course, my girl Danielle!

Good Divorce Attorney - Danielle Linker

Going through a Divorce can be stressful and never an easy process. Selecting a good professional attorney is essential to assist you through all the maze and legalities that comes with it. I chose Danielle Linker from Bratton & Razo in Riverside. Danielle knows the law very well and guided me throu...gh the many challenges and difficulties that I faced. She is courteous and patient but at the same time looking out for what is right for her client. Her office legal staff was also very helpful and attentive in this entire process. I highly recommend her as a Divorce attorney.

The Best Attorney You Could Ask For!

Choosing the right attorney can feel overwhelming, but the moment I spoke with Danielle, I knew without a doubt she was the one I wanted representing me in my child custody case. I had met with a few other attorneys before, but none gave me the same immediate sense of trust, honesty, and genuine care.... She was straightforward, confident, and made me feel as if I had known her for years. Danielle not only guided me through every step but also made me feel comfortable and reassured, even during moments when I felt completely defeated. She reminded me of her dedication and skill, and she truly delivered on her word. She genuinely cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to fight for them. Thanks to Danielle’s expertise, coaching, and unwavering commitment, I ended up getting everything I wanted in my custody agreement. I am beyond grateful that I found her and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing a custody or child support battle. She is, without a doubt, the absolute best.

Above and beyond

I had 3 lawyers for 4 different cases in 2 counties… Danielle Linker was by far the best and made the other 3 cases a breeze. When I first hired a lawyer I didn’t know what to expect and thought the treatment I was receiving was just how it went. Danielle and the team at Bratton and Razo showed me ...how a professional firm operates which was far superior to what I had become accustomed to. As I came to learn, my case was extremely complicated and she went above and beyond to deal not only with the Riverside Family Law Court, but the District Attorneys office as well. She responded to all my questions promptly with all the information I needed, she prepped me for trial well, she was amazing in court at the trial. I can’t say enough good things about her my entire life is different (for the better) than what it was just a year ago and Danielle was a big part of that. Danielle won me my restraining order, which got me full custody, which won me my child support hearing.

Highest Recommendation

I cannot recommend Danielle strongly enough. If you are looking for an attorney who listens to you, fights for you, and has a favorable reputation with the courts, then you should certainly trust her with your case. Her communication is timely, efficient, and effective. Danielle is more than fair in ...her billing practices and she knows when and how to push in the courtroom. The Judge in my case had nothing but complimentary sentiments toward her and it is evident that her competence has impressed many. I do not give my highest recommendation lightly, especially in such a contentious arena as the legal system. Also, I was not incentivized in any way for writing this review. Do yourself a favor and invest in your future by hiring Danielle Linker for your case.
