Donald Patrick Bebereia

I know this guy from having him handle my divorce, though simple, took three years while a child's life hung in the balance. This guy is heartless. He must have spent all that billable time working for self interests because he was friends with the opposing lawyer and ended up as his partner while I... received a piece of paper as a divorce decree, six months after the fact. Even though the judge awarded me property assets without any help from Bebereia, no enforcement documents were obtained by Bebereia. So, in effect, I would have to go back to court, which I did with a different lawyer who may have felt it was late and would prove to be too costly to remedy the situation. For the sake of your health, stay away from this useless poor excuse for a human being, and go through mediation, if possible.

Most of the family law attorneys in Orange County/Lamoreux Justice Center want to plead your case out or bill you for not doing anything - they don't really care about what happens to you and your family as long as they getpaid and make a buck on vulnerable people going through a very difficult time.... Mr. Bebereia is the most honest family law attorney I have encountered and stands apart from all the other attorneys; he genuinely cares about you and/or your family and wants to do the right thing for you and your family. You will get in contact with him personally and will not get handed off to a paralegal or secretary or be in a situation where he does not personally know your case. He is very knowledgeable and you are in very good, capable hands to trust Mr. Bebereia to handle your most difficult family law matter. I cannot recommend him highly enough especially after having experience with several family law attorneys in orange county.

Don Bebereia handled my initial case with expertise as well as compassion. And he was fast without compromising quality. He always had time for me. Several years later when I called him regarding some other issues, he consulted me and did not charge me for his time. I was not only shocked, but gr...ateful. I feel he genuinely cares about a persons stressful situation and wants to do all he can to help. He helps you to see the situation clearly. I would highly recommend him.

Mr. Bebereia represented me in two divorces. One in 1996 and one in 2007. He did an excellent job in both cases. In the first, he helped me win custody of my son. In the second, he was successful in helping me to defeat my ex's claims to my business and home. In both cases he kept me informed of... developments and options. When things got heated, he was the voice of calm and reason. He settled those issues that could be settled and litigated only those issues that had to be litigated. His excellent preparation of the cases led to the best results possible. His fees were reasonable . His counseling was invaluable.

He reasonably explains the law, your position and what you can really expect. He is very experienced and knowledgeable. He was my advocate for both my position and my pocketbook .. sometimes the solution you want may not really be worth the extra court time and legal fees. He explains what you ...are up against, what it will cost and perhaps your odds. I decided it was not worth an extra $10,000+ to maybe (maybe not) get an extra day a month – perhaps even losing ground. Other attorneys may encourage additional litigation since it means more billable hours. When you come to your attorney with your list of desires, most of us do not know that there is law that covers most of these items. Don explains these, and helps you understand how to best proceed to get the most that the law or the court will allow. Often neither party really gets to dictate the outcome. An experienced lawyer, like Don, helps you understand what to expect.
