Marcus William Morales

I'm so glad I chose Morales Law to handle my divorce! Everyone at Morales Law were so helpful. Always courteous, kind and professional. Marcus is amazing! Very knowledgeable and extremely confident. He definately knows what he's doing!

Morales Law, particularly Marcus Morales himself, is an excellent attorney. I came to Mr. Morales with a difficult case and knew nothing about family court or how to navigate the complex process. I was so grateful that Mr. Morales and his staff, were all there to help and support me. Mr. Morales is a very knowledgeable, trustworthy and strategic, while providing transparency, and being cautious not to "sugar coat" situations so that my expectations were unrealistic. In the end, I could not have been happier with the outcome. I am quite certain that there is no other attorney that will work as hard and as diligently as Mr. Morales. He went above and beyond for my case and I know he gives that same attention to every client. I highly recommend!

Had a great experience! Initially tried to complete the process by myself, but eventually, got inundated by the amount of paperwork forms and rigid divorce procedures. I called around and was referred to Morales law for divorce cases. My initial consultation was comforting. He actively listened to my situation, cared for my mental/emotional well being, and assured me he would fight for my individual rights. The very best part, he heard my approach to the process, and enacted my plan. He let me lead the strategy and implemented my requests. I absolutely felt he understood my point of view, supported me, and acted accordingly, which lead to successful divorce proceedings. Great experience, I would 100% refer him to anyone else going thru a divorce and needs help.

Want to start off by saying that I highly recommend Morales Law. Mr Morales, Molyanne and the rest of the team at Morales Law were hands down amazing. Very professional, caring and understanding. They take their time to listen and give their honest best advice. They stood by mine and my child side every step of the way, and fought hard for us. They definitely were and are a blessing. I just can't thank them enough.

If I could turn back time, I would have chosen Morales Law to represent me when I got divorced a little over a year ago. At that time I had no clue what questions to ask or what to look for in an attorney or what my rights were through all of this. I’d never been through a divorce or custody situation and had so many emotions going on. Needless to say, I did not have good representation and ended up with an agreement that I should’ve never been advised to take. Fast forward to now and I’m trying to remedy the issues that concerned me before. This time I opted to go with a different attorney. I’m so thankful that I was referred to Marcus. I was looking for someone who would fight hard for me and my kids. He is confident, knowledgeable, tells you like it is and on top of all that, the entire staff in his office are so kind and always willing to help as much as possible. You feel right at home. I also want to give a special thank you to Hana for putting up with me and responding so quickly to all of my questions and concerns. You helped me keep my peace of mind. A word of advice from me to anyone reading this and looking for the BEST family law attorney they can find. Don’t be like me and waste your time and money elsewhere. See for yourself. Take advantage of the free consultation they offer and do it right the first time! You won’t be sorry.

Going through a custody trial is a challenging and sometimes scary process. I felt that Mr. Morales did a really good job of helping me navigate the experience so I felt more in control of the situation. He was always prompt in his responses with me and ready to answer any questions I might have or alleviate my fears on the proceedings. My favorite part was watching him confidently and eloquently crush my Ex in the cross exam, it was satisfying to witness. I’m certainly glad he was on my side! Thank you Marcus for you professionalism and service to my case.

I came to Marcus Morales Law after blasting through an initial $5,000 retainer at another firm and then trying to represent myself through the court system. I was so frustrated and felt like I had a simple case but was getting nowhere. Like many separated people, I just wanted it all over and wanted to move on with my life. Marcus did a great job by being fair, honest, and optimistic abut my case. His communication was always wonderful and he uses a data system so you can access document 24/7 and message as well. I felt like I was always knew the latest on the case, understood the billing, and was aware of next steps. Furthermore, his office staff was always kind, called to check on me, and always answered. I even had a document due the night before Thanksgiving and it was submitted at 11:45pm. The communication is amazing but the results blew me away. He is well respected by the judges and other attorneys understand he is a finisher. He knows the laws but he also is realistic with you and will tell you what to expect. He was thorough and his court submission were always on time. He never needed an extension or was too busy for me. Since I retained Marcus, I have sent three others to him and all have had wonderful results. He is compared to a quality surgeon with good bedside manner! Divorce attorney aren't usually used more than once, so I am glad to choose someone who is effective, efficient, and fair.

I came to Marcus with a very complicated divorce case. Upon our first meeting, Marcus was compassionate with my situation. He was quick to understand what I was explaining and what I needed to do going forward and yet I didn't feel pressured to retain his services. I would describe Marcus as an attorney who definitely went to bat for me. During the case he was aggressive, proactive, knowledgeable, encouraging and consistent in keeping me informed of the process. Additionally, the entire staff at Morales Law was friendly, yet professional, helpful and quick to communicate with me. I also appreciated the ease of their online portal where I could view my case documents, send emails or upload information to them. Though my case ended up changing jurisdictions in a different state, I felt Marcus did everything he could have. He even followed up later to see how things were going with my case. I would definitely recommend Marcus Morales to anyone looking for an attorney in Family Law in Santa Barbara.

The Morales Law Team was absolutely professional - everyone handled me and my case with care - I am so thankful to them and relieved for myself and family that it is over and ended as best it could thanks to Morales Law's support and counsel.

When my wife served me with divorce papers, I knew I had to find a good lawyer. I was completely lost on what to do. I knew Marcus Morales had very high reviews and was highly acclaimed. Meeting with Marcus put me completely at ease. He explained everything that would happen in the divorce process and what to expect further down the road. Talking with Marcus, you soon realize his knowlede of Marriage Law is unsurpassed. His attention to detail is incredible. His staff is friendly and works seamlessly with you. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't change a thing. I felt well represented in court. He stood up for me and I knew I had made the best choice. He got me everything I deserved and I felt victorious.

Marcus is knowledgeable about the law and about the specific dynamics of the Santa Barbara court setting. He listens well and thinks clearly, and he comes up with creative solutions. Marcus doesn’t waste your time or your money. He is quick to respond, and he and his team make you feel like your case matters to them. He recently added Mollyanne to the team—all of the work I’ve seen from her has been thorough, clear, and timely. I know I can depend on Marcus and his team.

Marcus handled my divorce. From the beginning, I made it clear that protecting my business was the most important thing. Marcus counseled me from the beginning, taking steps even before filing for divorce to ensure my business assets would be protected. There was always a plan that was discussed and he always sought my other input. The other attorney I spoke to before Marcus were difficult to get a hold of and would not seek my input and would instead bark orders at me. Not Marcus. In the end, I was awarded my business. He is a great, tough lawyer and really cared about my life after divorce. He was accessible and always returned calls and emails. I don't think I will get married again, but if I do, I'm going to call Marcus for a pre-nupt!

I retained Mr. Morales for a divorce over a year ago and though the actual divorce was difficult, his communication was timely, his demeanor professional and most importantly, his ability to protect/advocate for my interests was exceptional. The divorce is drawing to a close and I feel that he has consistently brought me value and expertise through this divorce proceeding. I would highly recommend him to assist in your separation, or divorce.
