Review of Attny Elizabeth Fondren

This attorney handled my child abuse,child custody and my divorce case and was incredibly successful in all 3.

Elizabeth Fondren

I would highly recommend Elizabeth Fondren. She handled my divorce. She fully explained the process and what to expect, as well as offering suggestions on our best course of action. I was completely satisfied with the results of my case, and I would retain Ms. Fondren again if the need were to arise....

Elizabeth Fondren did a great job for me!!!

Elizabeth Fondren was very professional. Her rates were very fair and she did not gauge me even though my x-wife delayed us time and time again. She was very up front and explained all the various stages of the process in a way I could understand. She listened to what I thought and worked an effectiv...e game plan using my input as well. When I was headed down the worng way with an idea she showed me the corrct path. I got the settlement I wanted and she stayed through with me until all the i were dotted and the t's crossed. She was great. I would highy recommned her to anyone that was in a contentous battle with a spouse in thier divorce..

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!!! Knowledgeable, Professional, Available and Effective.

If you want the concise, bottom line, what are my options - call Elizabeth.. Experienced - many years, sharp, knows the answers and the pitfalls. Elizabeth came as a referral from a friend and she was just wonderful from the first meeting. She made me feel secure in my situation and comfortable a...bout the entire process. I had a wonderful experience with her. She was always available..imagine that from an attorney!! Her knowledge, compassion and understanding are limitless beyond measure. I cannot say enough good things about her. Elizabeth has far exceeded my expectations! Her knowledge in divorce law is unequaled in California. I am from another state and filed in OC because I thought it was going to be an uncontested divorce. Little did I know I was being played by my ex and it turned into a contested divorce. Now I am glad it did with the help of someone like Elizabeth. She truly made a difference. Eliabeth made what could have been the worst experience in my life into a very simple process and I am extremely grateful. I HIGHLY recommend her services!! First class, highly professional, and very imformative. It was truly an honor and the greatest benefit to work with someone with her knowledge. She is the best attorney I've ever dealt with. I would, and will, recommmend her to everyone I know. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Elizabeth and I worked on opposites sides of a case. I found her to be professional and knowledgeable. We have since worked together on a couple of cases, and routinely call each other to bounce ideas off of each other. I would refer Elizabeth a family law case that I could not take without any concern and with the knowledge that the client would be handled with the utmost respect, professional courtesy and knowledge. I endorse this lawyer's work."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
