Divorce or legal separation is serious hire the best, Mr. Bratton

Mr. Bratton helped me get through a legal separation and ultimately divorce. I had special circumstances surrounding my divorce and unfortunately it took 4 years to finalize. This was only due to the other party and my life circumstances. Mr. Bratton was professional and always responded to my emails... with a return email and or personal phone call in a very timely matter. He explained legal wording in layman's terms. He never dictated what to do yet gave choices and explained the outcome to me. I would highly recommend him as a divorce attorney. I was very fortunate to found him from a friend who is a divorce attorney. I asked my friend "who would you use if you wanted the best in Riverside?" She said, "Bill Bratton". She was right. Mr. Bratton and his entire office were very kind, professional and compassionate. Anyone going through a legal separation or divorce knows how difficult of a time it can be. If I can give you one piece of advice, that would be to listen to him and take his advice. I made the mistake of initially doing it my way and ultimately that cost me time and money. I should have listened to him from the start. Trust him, he knows his job and try to leave the emotions out of it.

PROBLEM SOLVER

I was involved in a very nasty divorce from my wife of 28 years. My case had been dragging on for over 5 years with no end in site - UNTIL I was introduced to Mr. Bratton. Almost immediately there was marked progress. Mr. Bratton and his office staff were very professional and welcoming. Mr. Bratto...n demonstrated a very skillful persona with a very good plan. He reviewed my case and then implemented the plan. In a rather short time our case was adjudicated to my relief. He showed himself to be a intelligent, thoughtful, and caring person. In my opinion I found him to be a " problem solver - not a problem maker ". I have recommended him to friends and people that I work with without any hesitation. He truly made a huge difference in my life and the lives of my daughters.

I Highly Recommend Bill Bratton for Matters of Family Law

Bill Bratton was recommended to me to assist in my divorce by a friend who also was very pleased with his services. I hired Mr. Bratton to represent me in my divorce. He did an excellent job explaining the process, time line, cost, and probable outcome. He kept the file moving and was timely i...n filing, negotiating and responding to my questions and requests. He told me that he was not interested in "running up my bill" but rather in getting the job done in a timely manner and the most cost effective manner possible. He recommended other attorneys that my then former spouse could consult that were easy to work with and also that were like minded in getting the job done and in not charging exorbitant fees. Mr. Bratton told me that my divorce would probably take between nine months and 18 months. It took 15 months. The final bill was reasonable. Mr. Bratton negotiated a fair division of assets and a reasonable alimony settlement. I was very satisfied and would highly recommend his services in family law matters.

The Best Around

I cannot begin to say enough about Bill Bratton, and I cannot possibly recommend him more enthusiastically. Family law proceedings are a very difficult and emotional time, but Bill’s extensive knowledge and confidence eased my fears and uncertainties throughout the process. He gave me the confidenc...e to do what was right for the long-term, not just what would suffice for the present situation. Bill was assertive when the situation called for a more aggressive approach, and always kept me calm when I felt at my wit’s end. Bill’s level of professionalism was matched only by his level of caring, and I will always be indebted to him.

Mr. Bratton or someone from his of...fice was always avaliable to answer question or concerns. Mr. Bratton is extremely knowledgeable and helped me get through a difficult time with as little damage as possible. Mr. Bratton has the best interest of his clients at heart. I would definitely recommend Mr. Bratton.
