It best and only family law lawyer ever. It's been a long time since I have been ignored by the court's System as well as all the other systems, my ex-husband knows all the way to get custody of 3 kids. My ex-husband lied to the court and hid me from social workers! I've been in the house taking car...e of my kids while he was running to the court and making fake accusations. Of course, I couldn't check the mailbox because he was the only person whoa person who had access to read all the mail, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible, all he had done to me and my kids! Finally My freedom could happen upon AMAZING LAWYER:

Heart of gold, fireball in court!

Two years ago I posted on a fb group desperately seeking an attorney to protect my children. Candice was recommended by many and I took the advice. She did NOT disappoint ❤️❤️❤️. This woman has a heart of gold and is a fireball in court. It’s rare to find an attorney these days who will use their ...heart as a shield. Many push paper and do the bare min if you’re lucky, then charge you an arm and a leg. Or they don’t see the games being played and aren’t prepared. Candice knows the games they play, always a step ahead and ready to go. Every hearing we have gotten remarkably closer to our goals. Last week the outcomes in court were life changing and my kids are finally safe. There’s nothing like an attorney that wants to see your ex behind the line as much as you do, wants justice and wants protection just as much as you do and bends over backwards to make it happen and is truly relentless in their pursuit for goodness. Hiring the right attorney is a costly gamble. I’m only sorry I didn’t have her sooner. I’m thankful to her and thankful to those who pointed me to her- she’s a total badass! ❤️❤️

My daughters haven’t recovered from the emotional distress

I hired this person to help me out of a hi conflict divorce while I was fighting for my life during the lockdown. I was diagnosed with recurrent cancer and unwell. My ex-husband attempted to use my cancer diagnosis to take custody of the kids. my ex and his lawyer tried to claim that I was held under... a psych evaluation when I was actually suffering a medication allergy. Candice never used my own medical file as evidence of the false claims. She failed to do her due diligence/job to submit my medical file to the court - which is malpractice

paid to much for talk

I received a letter from my wife's lawyer, I trusted and paid Candice to advise and act in my best interest, I don't feel like I got her full attention and it cost me more money, used up my retainer with phone conversations. She would not take responsibility and took my money and did not reply to the... letter.

One of the BEST Attorneys...Passionate Representation

I hired Candice late in my case and she got caught up to speed quickly. She is extremely sharp, professional, passionate about fighting for the best possible outcome for her client and truly for the best interest of my daughter in my custody case. I would highly recommend her services as a lawyer you... can trust who will be aggressive and passionate while upholding a high degree of integrity and professionalism. She is a results attorney and will enthusiastically work day and night while being very responsive and always on time. Her level of genuine care and passion, attention to detail, and keen insight is what makes her the attorney she is and one you may certainly depend on.

"I first met Candice a few years ago through online local bar associations. Since then we have met in person and we have become friends. Candice is very knowledgeable and experienced in family law matters. She has gone up against some of the toughest and most reputable family law firms in Orange County and holds her own. Her clients are fortunate to be represented by her. They are getting a strong advocate with large firm experience, who can give them the personal touch of a solo practitioner. As a fellow family law attorney, I often consult with Candice. She gives good advice for my benefit. She is a good lawyer and a good friend. Her clients are in the best of hands."
