Replied last May 20, 2021It is not uncommon in family law for a client to demand a refund or to not have to pay their bill. We deal with one of the most emotional areas of law there is and we are dealing with people that are often going through the most traumatic points in their life. Generally speaking, when a client demands certain sums of money or they will take threatening action against me as an attorney or the firm, I nor the firm will agree to honor the demands for money no matter how much they threaten to raise the stakes. I stand behind my work and my ethics and my professional responsibilities as governed by the State Bar of California. Any legitimate complaint will always be looked into and if there were ever a reasonable dispute and or concern it is an attorneys responsibility to fall on their sword. In fact, this particular client filed complaints both with the Better Business Bureau and the California State Bar. Both agencies dismissed the client's complaint with no action taken after receipt and review of the relevant information. We do not hide when there is a valid issue however we will not be threatened or extorted because a client makes unethical or unwanted demands.

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.
Mende Lauren Romaniak's Lawyer Endorsements
"Mende is a thorough and conscientious family law attorney who really makes her clients the priority. She is extremely knowledgeable and will always go the extra mile to make sure her clients know all possible outcomes of any given scenario so they can make informed decisions. I highly recommend her!"
"I endorse Mende wholeheartedly. She is smart, kind, and an effective advocate for her clients."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Mende is a knowledgeable family law attorney. She cares deeply about her clients and works hard to help them achieve positive outcomes."
"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."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"It has been a pleasure working with Ms. Romaniak on several cases. Although we were on opposing sides, I found Ms. Romaniak to be highly professional and ethical. I would not hesitate to refer clients to her."
"I had the opportunity to work with Mende and see her in action in the courtroom. She is an aggressive and competent litigator who is not afraid to advocate for her clients. I’m pleased to provide my endorsement for Mende for litigated family law matters."
