I provide legal services in all Bay Area counties and beyond.
Originally a New York native, I relocated to the Bay Area in 2011 and have been a solo practioner here since 2017. (And yes, I am that irritating New York Yankees fan wearing pin stripes at the A's game...)
I am passionate and empathetic, creative and reasonable. As an attorney, I find the pursuit of justice and the restoration of hope once lost most rewarding. We all have our moments in life, and it is nothing less than an honor to walk my clients through some of those moments.

Family
Having Loriann as our family lawyer was such a comfort. She gave us the needed confidence to stay focused and positive. More importantly, Loriann treated us as a friend and not a client. You did such a wonderful job in all aspects of the proceedings. We admire your composure, work ethic and most of...

Does not Respond
If you are getting this attorney through the Contra Costa County Bar Association, and are getting this attorney on a cheaper retainer, be aware. At first Ms. Owens was helpful and although, did not give much advise, did say she could help me with my request. As my case progressed, however, she did no...
I am sorry you feel this way, however, publishing a public post stating that we did not return your documents minutes after the request for the documents was made, is misleading. As is failing to include that a favorable outcome was obtained on your behalf. Further, the client is normally the one with the evidence; I am not certain how I could possibly be expected to obtain evidence prior to meeting a client. The court is focused on the child’s best interest based on facts and standards under the Family Code. Your belief that you “won your case” with a journal is understandable, as you’re not a legal expert, but it is not factual. No, you did not “remind me” of your hearing date; I had all hearing information in my possession. Clients are not present for the hours and hours we spend on their matter, and rarely understand the process, which is why attorneys are retained. Assuming the “bare minimum” was done to help your case is a baseless allegation; again, you received a favorable outcome, and not based on the evidence you provided. Communications are always answered; our inability to provide instant responses to multiple messages and emails a day is not “unprofessional.” Locating every site to defame us by publishing false information however, is. This review is false and clearly posted for malicious purposes.
