Superb Service!

Mende was easy to work with, very thorough, and straight forward. She helped with my concerns, took suggestions, and made the paperwork manageable. If you want a good job done, Mende is the one to call on.

Mende was quick, knowledge, courteous, and very easy to work with. She always provided drafts for our review. She understood the views of the opposing parties and worked well with them to get the outcome that we needed.

Brilliant

Mende represented us in a Dependency matter and was dedicated to our cause, brilliant in her defense and her writing is outstanding. We would hire her back in a heartbeat if needed.

Family Law Matter

When I was served with court papers regarding a family law matter I was devastated and terrified. My husband and I met with Mende for a consultation and after speaking with Mende and hearing her plan for a response that would best serve my family's interests, I felt immediate relief. Mende represente...d us in court for just under a year with multiple hearings and I though of her as my life preserver through the entire ordeal. Her calming and caring presence in court made everything bearable. Mende showed great compassion and superb dependability. Mende has insightful writing skills and is a brilliant orator, she is a fantastic negotiator and was knowledgeable about our case so that she could effortlessly represent our needs. We could not have hoped for a better outcome to our case or for a better lawyer to help us.

Family Law Service

Mende recently helped me with a custody case revolving around my daughter. After some initial frustration with another Attorney that was assigned my case with her law office essentially ignoring me and my case after I paid the retainer fees, Mende stepped in and stepped up big time. I have very lit...tle interaction or knowledge about legal proceedings but I knew the importance of gaining custody of my child. Mende was very patient with me explaining the step by step process that would take place during the proceedings. My child's mother can be difficult at times to say the least and Mende did a great job to ensure that any issues on that side of the court were mitigated. I appreciate Mende's professionalism in helping me gain custody rights to my daughter and I highly recommend her if you are in a similar situation.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I have known Mende for only a little while, however, she has been a breath of fresh air for my law office. She is experienced, a hard worker, cares about her clients, is a team player, fun and energetic to be around and, more importantly, the clients have loved working with her. In less than only a few months with our office she hit the ground running taking on two trials, a full caseload from a prior attorney and still is actively meeting with prospective clients. She cares about ethics and about learning. She will be a CFLS without doubt in the near future. I endorse this lawyer and encourage her to work to complete her task requirements to become a specialist so we can add some alphabet soup behind her name."
