Child custody and support

she was able to get both parties to agree on the visitation and child support. Even though this case has been going on for a long while. Would hire her in a heart beat again if we ever have to go back.

Unusual case handled excellently!

I can't say enough good things about Ms. Mattos. She had never handled a case like mine and did an excellent job, winning my case with class and poise. She is a class act in every way. She was recommended to me by a top attorney in Visalia who was too busy to handle my case. Turned out to be the... best thing that ever happened. I truly recommend her if you need a family law attorney.

Child Custody Paternity Lawer

Ms. Ashley is great attorney. She was recommended by a solid source. I consulted with her and liked the vibe I got from her and hired her. She represented me in court numerous times. What Ms. Ashley did for me was make sure I was correctly, and strongly represented. Made sure all my rights were prote...cted. Made sure I was not a victim of other lawyer(s). Made sure my stance was heard in a lawful and just manor. She took the time to listen to all my needs and stuck by them. She never told me what to do, but advised me on the options I had. She has a great staff that's very courteous. I am thankful for her and her knowledge.

Review of Ashley

Ashley has been our attorney for several court appearances. We were introduced to her by Greg Gillett and are thankful to him as well as Ashley. She has researched the case backgrounds and been able to successfully negotiate with the other party and reason with the judge for favorable outcomes. Thank...s Ashley for all of your assistance, Gabe and Ellen

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.
