Tax Liens and Clouded Title

I cannot recommend Missy Cornejo highly enough. I was in an incredibly stressful situation trying to access the equity in a home I co-owned with my ex-husband. Although I had lived in the home the entire time it was not disclosed to me that a lien had been placed on the property do to his lack of pay...ing the Franchise Tax Board taxes and there is also a clouded title. I had spoken to several attorneys and no one was willing to take my case - until I found Missy. She stepped in with confidence, clarity and a plan. Missy navigated the legal complexities with professionalism and persistence, ultimately helping me clear the title issue and access the equity I deserved. She was always responsive, knowledgeable and compassionate throughout the entire process. From the very beginning with the other party she was direct, clear and did not bend when pushed and stood firm. She consistently communicated and handled a complicated legal situation with strength, and precision, and because of her persistence, I was able to move forward. If you are facing a complicated property or lien issue, especially one involving tax liens or co-ownership disputes, Missy is the attorney you want in your corner. I am beyond grateful for her help.
