Vanessa Celeste Deniston

Vanessa strikes that wonderful balance of professionalism and truly caring about her clients. She is intelligent and compassionate and very easy to work with. I hired her to work on my employment agreement and succession planning documents that I was negotiating with the company I work for (a buy se...ll agreement, stock option agreement, and succession plan). She was incredibly patient and committed during what became a drawn out process on the company's part and she helped expedite in many ways. Vanessa did a great job reviewing the documents and red-lining to ensure that my needs were being met but, more importantly, she approached them proactively rather than merely being reactive, anticipating a future in which these documents would not just protect me but also serve me.

I had the pleasure to work side-by-side with Vanessa when she was working for my co-counsel Shegerian & Associates, PC in Santa Monica. We worked on 6 highly contentious and internationally publicized sexual assault . Vanessa proved to be a terrific legal talent and bright attorney. Vanessa has exce...llent good "trial lawyer" instincts which is very rare. She was well liked and respected by the judges and clerks. Not to be missed is her wonderful sense of humor.

Ms. Deniston was great, she really understood my case and believed in me. She was quick to point out possible problems and work arounds. She worked hard to ensure that everything was filed on time and took the time to product great declarations which helped move my case forward. She stood up for me a...nd I appreciate her time and her work. I would recommend her highly.

I was so lucky to have Vanessa by my side. She is very professional. On top of everything. She kept constant communication with me in regards to my case and would take her time to educate me with very unfamiliar legal lingo. She definitely made my first time experience dealing with legal matters a pl...easant one. I highly highly recommend such a dedicated and passionate attorney.

Vanessa is a fierce advocate for her clients. She believes in working together as a team and will spend the time necessary to understand your case from every angle. She wil collaborate with you and gives you honest back. Her legal strategies are brilliant but also shows her integrity, tenacity and am...azing passion about your story. She is the best representation you can have during a very stressful moment in your life. I highly recommend her to anyone.
