Anne Rebecca Fokstuen

I had the opportunity to work with Attorney Anne Fokstuen on a divorce case, representing opposite sides. Despite the inherent challenges, we were able to resolve the matter peacefully, ensuring a fair outcome for both parties. Anne’s passionate and strategic approach helped foster an environment wh...ere the family could part ways amicably, leaving as friends. Her dedication to her client’s interests, coupled with her ability to collaborate effectively, made the process smoother and more constructive. Anne’s professionalism and advocacy skills are truly commendable. She is an excellent family law attorney who genuinely cares about achieving the best results for her clients.

1. Don't worry about distance if you are locked in South Bay. This was my concern in the beginning, and it turned out communication is not impacted in my experience, as Anne is very responsive and articulate, no matter you choose to communicate by emails or phone. 2. Anne is extremely experienced in... divorce cases. Her extensive experience turns into a more direct and effective method when it comes to solving your problem. Her approach is to the point. And this key piece of difference from her compared to other typical family lawyers will make the big difference. 3. Anne has extensive experience in dealing with Chinese family cases, and she really understands the culture aspect of it. 4. Anne is compassionate, she truly cares her clients. You will feel this when you meet and work with her, examples are just too pale. It is not about how lawyers remembers your case, rather you need a truly compassionate lawyer who can feel your pain and thus work towards resolving it. 5. DONT worry about commute cost if you are locked in South Bay, she is very fair on that.

Successful 60% of the time but often required many trips back to court for basic outcomes. Simple matters and details that made negative, big differences in our case, were things she would just ignore. She does not represent well in a hearing and her paperwork was often riddled with typos and inaccur...acies. Most organized paperwork was always her bill. She is constantly on vacation, unreachable, disorganized, as expensive as the bigger more skilled firms, and in general just someone I regret working with even though she did have some “wins” (if there is such a thing in family law).
