I worked with Magdalena Chattopadhya and the team of Magdalena Law Group for approximately a year. It was a challenging time, but I am happy with the results, the responsiveness and support of the team, and the masterful strategy advisements I was receiving. I would definitely work with them again an...d have since recommended Magdalena Law Group to others in need of a skilled family law attorney.

I contacted Magdalena Chattopadhya of Magdalena Law Group three years ago as I went about interviewing (5) separate law firms in the San Jose area. My effort was to replace my attorneys at the time related to my family law case that had been in effect for over 10 years. My case was related to a div...orce in 2008 where my ex moved to CA and took our two boys with her. The divorce matter was resolved but the custody disputes were ongoing and intense. We never went more than a year without being in the courtroom, where my ex-wife attempted over and over again to reduce my parenting time. When my boys wanted to come and live with me, it hit the fan and an Emergency Screening was ordered. Then, a Parenting Coordinator was assigned. Apparently, a Parenting Coordinator should generally work to reduce issues, but our assigned coordinator did not work fairly. I didn't know what to do and my current attorneys didn't have much to offer. I wanted someone to fiercely represent me and pursue what I knew was right! Magdalena jumped in and had to review over a decade of material and circumstances. I was constantly surprised by how much information she digested and knew without being prompted. Not only did she keep us out of the courtroom for the remainder of time left until my youngest turned 18, but she silenced the efforts of my ex-wife and her attorney and also silenced the Parenting Coordinator who, in my opinion, poorly handled the case and should not serve as such in good faith. Magdalena herself helped me to do exactly what was needed in order to prevail. Even when I would be exasperated over the ridiculousness and contentiousness of the PC, OP, and my ex-wife, she assured me that if I followed her counsel, we would prevail - and we did! Had I remained with my former counsel or selected anyone else, I could not imagine having survived the legal attacks as I did. If you're looking for someone who won't "blow sunshine" and instead, give it to you straight and compel you to understand, Magdalena Law Group is THE choice. As an aside, everything with her office is smooth. Payments, documentation support, meetings, etc., - the team at Magdalena Law Group is smart, quick to act, and at your service, as they were at mine. I am beyond grateful for the services rendered and recommend Magdalena Law Group as they were the best family law representation I had - totaling 5 other firms!

I wish I could give them 100 stars! I am writing this review to express my outmost satisfaction with the exceptional legal services provided by Magdalena's Family Law Firm. I cannot express enough how grateful I am to have such an exceptional group of legal professionals by my side during this chal...lenging family matter. Magdalena's team is undoubtedly a consummate expert in their field and deserves every accolade for their outstanding services. From the initial consultation and through the different difficult hearings of my case, Magdalena's team consistently demonstrated an unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for me and my family. Their profound knowledge of family law, coupled with their astute strategic thinking, proved to be instrumental in successfully navigating complex legal proceedings. Throughout my legal process, they have exhibited a remarkable level of professionalism, always making themselves available to address any concerns or questions I constantly have. Their exceptional communication skills are awesome. I am always well-informed about the progress of my case, leaving me with a sense of confidence and reassurance. What truly sets Magdalena's team apart is their empathetic and compassionate approach. PLEASE, do yourself a favor and hire them. Family matters can be emotionally charged, and they have displayed an extraordinary ability to balance the legal aspects while being sensitive to the human dynamics involved. Their genuine care and understanding fostered a trusting relationship, providing immense comfort during a challenging time. Believe me when I say that you will have THE BEST team on your side to get a fair outcome on your favor. Moksha Smith and Rutika were assigned to my case. They have been a blessing and I cannot thank them enough for what we have accomplished so far. Furthermore, their attention to detail and meticulous preparation were on the dot. They left no stone unturned, meticulously helped me gather evidence, conducting thorough research, and devising effective strategies. Their courtroom presence was impressive showcasing their persuasive advocacy skills and deep expertise in family law!! I was so proud of having Moksha represent me during the a crucial hearing to set child/spousal support. I must also commend the entire team at Magdalena's for their professionalism and dedication. From the friendly receptionists to the knowledgeable paralegals, everyone I encountered was supportive and responsive, ensuring a seamless experience. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Magdalena's Family Law Firm to anyone seeking a family lawyer. Their unparalleled expertise, combined with their compassionate approach, is truly making a significant difference in my case.

Moksha and Rutika (and Jasmine for keeping me on target), you ladies are the best!! YOU ROCK!! I appreciate your support in the upcoming hearings!! We got this :)

I could not thank enough Magdalena and full team for amazing support to my family law case. If you need expert representation in highly complex, emotionally and financially dragging situation look no further than Magdalena and her team. She is a highly sought and busy attorney but She will make sure... your case is represented with full preparation.

Where do I start. I was going through a bad divorce and had lost all hope of having any sort of custody of my only son. Magdalena Chattopadhya was my third lawyer and I do not know why I met her. I just had a feeling that I should meet her as a last resort. And boy did she exceed my expectations. In ...the first meeting itself, she assured me that she’ll do the best she can for me. Although, she didn’t promise anything but kinda said what might be the outcome of the case if I had her on board. She’s an absolute gem of a lawyer and has so much knowledge about the family law cases and commands respect in the San Jose family court circle. She has a very pleasing personality and even though her fees are kinda on the higher side but she never charges a penny extra and is very cognizant of her client’s time and money. If anyone needs an amazing lawyer in the Bay Area for family law cases; keep calm and retain Magdalena Chattopadhya. She will get the job done and some more. I can’t thank her enough. She has absolutely resurrected my life and I salute her. I can vouch for her any day of the week.
