Greateful for Annie and her team

I had what was supposed to be a straightforward divorce, but complications came up along the way. Annie and her team were so helpful and supportive. She was attentive, responsive, and kept to the facts of the case. She was not daunted by my ex's counsel and I walked away paying for less than I though...t I would. She is a solid force to rely upon during all the uncertainty, confusion, and anxiety of a divorce. I am so grateful for her.

Outstanding family law attorney in Orange County!

Recommended to Annie by a friend who was represented by her and was very satisfied. Appreciated her attention to detail, and her complete and accurate communication to the judge. After one very brief court session the judge set my alimony payments to zero. Touchdown!

Excellent Attorney!

Ann did an excellent job helping me navigate a very complex child custody case. I felt she was fully invested and had my families interests prioritized and top of mind. Professional, compassionate, and skilled! I would highly recommend Ann!

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

consultation

I consulted with this attorney for a finance matter in my post divorce thinking she is knowledgeable in that particular field. I only paid which was not at all useful even one bit. she never gave me any tips or any proper legal explanations other than just trying to instigate me to file a case stat...ing how bad my ex was etc. totally unprofessional. she is not knowledgeable wrt finance, tax at all.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
