Mengqiu Zhang

Melinda is a kind and professional attorney who goes beyond and above for me and her clients. I was referred by other friend when I found my ex-husband cheated on my in 2020. I scheduled a consultation with her. Through the consultation, she explained thoroughly what to expect and how she could help ...me protect my rights. My divorce is messy and still ongoing, but Melinda never leaves me behind. She has committed herself to my trials and hearings. She prepared me very well on the stand and she always works overtime. She has to postpone her doctor's appointments and other personal arrangements so many times because her clients/I have urgent needs. She cares about me like her family member. Besides law knowledge she provided along the way, she also taught me how to become a better person in my own personal life. Her price is also very reasonable and won't cost you an arm or a leg. Who doesn't dream of a happily ever after in married life? If you’re as unlucky as I was and find yourself facing separation or divorce, Melinda is your lifesaver!

I don't know how I should express my appreciation to Melinda, and the only thing I can say is to tell all of you she is 100% strongly recommended！！No doubt She is best of the best attorney in Bay Area！！My husband and I have been stayed out of the US for years and he filed divorce case against me whic...h didn't meet the residence requirement at all and forced me to go back US alone with kids to response the case at very high cost during pandemic.I felt helpness and desperated and my friend who had hired Melinda before said she would be the only one can help me. I was afraid to facing the court and to pay expensive lawyer charge,but Melinda encouraged me just need to trust her and she would fight for me with all her effort. She is not only a legal professional but also a very caring partner just like psychotherapist giving me power. She is very good at using differnt legal stratagies and legal codes to fight against the opponent, even on very complicated cases like mine. Unlike some attorneies who charge a lot counted every single second or every email response to client even just saying "yes", she knew my finical hardship, she always want to save me less lawyer cost but provided even way more legal service and care than others. She explained to me in Chinese via call or text after every time she sent me email in English, and that is double workload! Thanks to Melinda, I get what I want. And she is the one save my life. I will definitely work with her and seek legal aid again in the future!!!!

My case is a little bit complicated DV divorce case because I am the victim but I was arrest. Consulting more than five attorney before Melinda Zhang, different people give me different solution but no one can satisfy me. I have worded with another two famous family law attorney about half of a y...ear before Melinda Zhang. They don’t have good strategies and solution. When I called or email them, they were little response. It looks like just towing time for more charge (just like most of the attorney do). So finally, I decided to change to a Chinese attorney for better communication. When I saw the 2013 one star review, I was hesitant, because I worked with another 2 attorney too just like her. But I fount she only complain about the normal charge and attitude never mention about the personal ability and other reviews are all good ones. Then I decided to have a try. The first time when I Went to the office of Melinda Zhang, it is very organized and she is very nice and respectful, even it was the first time ,she gave me some very useful suggestion. My DV case took about 1 year, all the process made me frustrated, at the same time I had a deep depression. I have to thank Melinda Zhang, she always listened my concern and worry about then gave me a solution that can real solve the problem. She even told me how to solve the depression problem and care about my motion and health. We prepared the whole week for my trial, sometimes it was already 9:00pm, she was still working with me just for prepare every detail questions. I think if you want to choose a right attorney, you need to choose a right person, have good personality. I have to say, she is the one. And the more important is that I think she is also one of the best trail attorney in the bay area.

Ms. Zhang handled my asylum application, and I truly believe that without her, I might not be alive today. I went to another attorney first, and they told me that I had little chance of staying in the U.S., that I should just leave and hope for the best. Then I found Ms. Zhang, and she agreed fig...ht for me. We worked many late nights putting together information needed. She charged me a low fixed price, because that's what I could afford. She made me get documentation that I never even considered would be useful. We had to resubmit some parts, and she helped me with that as well. When I received notice that I could stay in this great country, I cried for an hour. I highly recommend her, and wish her all the success she deserves.
