Exceptional Guidance and Expertise in a Challenging Process

Riena Yu made an incredibly challenging process significantly more manageable. The uncertainty surrounding the divorce process is often the greatest source of stress for those who recognize they need help but are unsure where to begin. I had numerous questions, each with complex and interconnected as...pects, and Riena provided clear, concise answers and thorough explanations. Words cannot fully express how much her guidance improved my experience or how fortunate I was to have found someone as knowledgeable and competent as she is. If you are seeking legal counsel, choose someone who understands the intricacies of the process, values your time, and respects your concerns. I am profoundly grateful to have found all of that in Riena.

Professional and Compassionate

Another attorney at Frudden and Padilla referred Riena Yu. I needed her for a restraining order, and it was very complicated and kept getting delayed. We worked together for six months. The opposing attorney was disrespectful towards the judge and Ms. Yu, but she remained poised and professional. Ms.... Yu stayed by my side even when the case kept getting delayed. She spent a lot of time practicing with me and preparing me for the questions the judge and the other attorney may ask me. She encouraged, made me feel safe, and helped me stay strong when I wanted to give up. She was on top of it and very thorough and communicated with me regularly. With Ms. Yu’s help, I was granted the 5-year restraining order I sought! I highly recommend working with Ms. Yu.

intelligent and compassionate

“I hired Riena after i was referred to the firm by my friend. I needed her at the very moment as i was fighting againt my husband and his family all alone. I was panicking as a result of my tuff situation having 3 minors and no family support in US. Riena’s staff called me back almost immediately. An...d the rest is history. I cannot even begin to explain the care, empathy, and diligence this woman carries. I was coming out of an 15yr emotionally abusive relationship with my husband and in laws. Riena talked me through everything with the utmost care and compassion. She’s super easy to talk to, efficient, prompt!, bold, and simply kind overall.I was very broken and scared at the time and wanted to end thing fast but Riena taught me how to be patient and do the things legally right. Not pushing thing fast gave me and husband some time to rethink our situation and about our kids and analyze the involvement of his parents towards our broken relationship. I can’t imagine going through any of that without her. And I have no words to express how grateful I am to her and her team. I just hope they continue doing the amazing work that they do so that others out there like me can continue to benefit. It’s hard NOT to feel how genuine and passionate they are. I absolutely can’t thank them enough. ”
