Excellent advocate
Justine represented me as a de facto parent in a juvenile dependency matter. She was a very responsive attorney and excellent advocate for me and the child, and her advocacy resulted in a positive outcome for my family. Thank you, Justine!

Responsive, thorough, pleasant
Justine was great through my case (a bit of a confusing and unusual one, being an annulment). Her advice was always on point and she was super responsive with communications. Highly recommend!

Amazing!
Justine handled my messy child support case with expertise and precision. She was organized, swift in response and also had excellent command over the content when we went to court. I highly recommend her and would return to her firm if needed.

Helpful and Honest
Justine is amazing, and she was always on top of everything! She helped me at every step of my divorce. Any question I had, she explained in detail so I would understand. I felt comfortable throughout the whole process. I will highly recommend her to anyone who needs help.
