Rip off artist

Our daughter was quoted a total of $5000, for a divorce from an abusive husband. She had printed documentation of abuse. She printed emails and text messages from him about things he had done and was going to do to her. She had pictures of things he had done to her. She gave him a binder full of ...all the evidence with the important things highlighted. She also told him when she left she only took her items she had prior to being married and gave him proof of that. She left him all the furniture, electronics and household goods. She also left the bank account with over $7500 in it. She only took her things and her car. She was told that was an easy case and the $5000 would cover but they would get her divorced and alimony. She told him she just wanted to be divorced. We have since paid well over $10,000 it's been 3 years and still not divorced. Every time court came up he applied for a continuance. Why???? to get more money from a young scared girl. Only 19 years old. He is now trying to milk her for another $2,500 to quit her case. He is a thief and a liar. We are now trying to figure out how to go about getting this "simple" divorce completed.

BEST OF THE BEST!!!!!

I hired Richard Isles to represent me in a nasty divorce. I thought my ex and I could get through the divorce amicably but he hired an attorney and immediately quit his job. He didn't want to work so I would have to pay him spousal support!!! We were only married for 2 years!!!!! I made an appointmen...t for a consultation and was able to meet Richard a few days later. He is the epitome of an aggressive attorney! He and his staff worked with me closely and were very attentive, like I was their only case. My ex-husband tried to drag his feet and make the divorce as difficult as he could, but Richard and his staff were NOT having it. I always felt like they had my best interest in mind. They treated me like I was a human being and not another file or walking dollar sign. In the end, I was able to terminate spousal support and walk away a new (and free!) woman. Mr. Isles really knows his stuff. He's been at this for a long time and it shows! He is the best of the best and his staff is as well!

Denise Motroni

My name is Celia G. Hudson. I retained the Isles Law Group back in March of 2017. At the time I consulted with Mr. Isles after interviewing 4 Attorneys before him, he was the only one who gave me hope of a fair outcome. During our consultation I mentioned that I may prefer representation by a Woma...n, nothing against him he was great but mainly because the Respondent, (my not soon enough ex) was an arrogant Jerk and I new he would be totally pissed off to see a Woman represent me because he has no respect for Women in general. Well, Mr. Isles assigned Denise Motroni, what can I say...We had our 1st hearing yesterday 9/25/17 in San Bernardino Court. Denise is a POWERHOUSE, a force to be reckoned with, after consulting with me in the hallway about what was about to take place all I did was stand next to her and watch her in action, she was, INCREDIBLE, if I weren't so old, I swear to God I would go to Law School cause when I grow up, I wanna be just like HER! She gives new meaning to, " Chicks Kick ASS!" the Respondent stood there his arrogant, self absorbed self, not only pissed cause Denise kicked his ass, but low and behold, the Judge was also a Woman, he was in Female hell with Denise leading the pack as Lucifer! it was FABULOUS! needless to say I was totally scared about having to pay him Spousal and moving from my beautiful apartment to my Car but Denise kicked him to the curb and spousal was DENIED! Anyone out there that needs representation for a Matrimonial issue, Denise Motroni is your Advocate, let me tell you, I would, never want to be on the other side of her, she is very Direct, Matter of Fact, Knowledgeable and a totally surprise! I cant say enough about how much I totally recommend her. The Isles Law Group are Fantastic, my experience has been great from the consultation with Mr. Isles to Peggy Decker who takes all my money!, to Leigh who is a Para Legal expert to Denise who's ring I plan to kiss the next time I see her!

Great team

I have previously hired hired 2 prior attorneys to represent me in the past. I was divorced a number of years from an ex. She has free legal representation and has so for over 10 years due to a personal relationship to her attorney. Needless to say that this has been a very expensive drawn out pro...cess on my part. Now a number of years after the divorce, there has been a severe decrease in my salary. I attended a meeting with Mr Isles Law Office and met with one of his associate attorney's Cora Dorado. I immediately felt that Attorney Dorado was the first attorney to hear and address my needs. I am currently in the midst of an alimony trial to finally decrease and hopefully cease endless alimony payment to my ex, whose current income is more than mine. Through the years, I have paid thousands and thousands of dollars in legal fees, this is the only time I felt that my side of the case was represented by a competent attorney. Attorney Dorado has researched case law, and presented my concerns in court. She has fought for me and I feel that I am finally making progress with this endless situation. At this time, I can say that she is most competent and plan to continue this review when my case has been resolved. But I am finally hopeful for the first time. Thank you Attorney Dorado.

Richard Isles Saved Many Injustices for my Family

My three cases are near the end. So far, Richard won all for my family. My cases were complicated and each case complicated the other. Its been near 4 years. Here is the outcome. I have 80% custody of my children. I do not pay spousal support. False allegations of ex wife are dismissed by the court. ...I was blessed to have found Richard. It was expensive and worth every penny. My children benefit and will benefit for their lives to come. My daughter is still very young (pre-k) and my son is blooming in school and his extra activities no doubt because of the stability I can provide thanks to Richard's defense.
