Gracias

LA violencia domestica tiene muchas faces sin duda la mas dificil de comprobar es la verbal ,el dano emocional causado y comprobar que hay abuso cuando no hay golpes ,ni marcas, ni gritos es aun mas imposible de comprobarse ,Mrs. Hellen decidio tomar mi caso y su gran profesionalismo, conocimiento ...y sabiduria hicieron para mi mucho mas facil el enfrentar la situacion de mi caso ,su gran apoyo y simpatia en medio de el proceso que tomo casi un ano .Me hicieron creer en la justicia y me enseno que independientemente de mi origen este es un pais de justicia y que ella como abogada es ese puente de comunicacion para que la justicia sea unica y transparente .Ella no solo es una persona correcta y sin prejuicios ademas en su profesion ejerce una etica envidiable con la postura correcta en la representacion de mi caso y gran claridad al explicar mi proceso .Y es que de eso se trata la justicia ,de que lo justo este equilibrado .Muchas gracias por tomar mi caso ,y definitivamente recomiendo su gran profesionalismo .Gracias por decidir ser abogada,siempre estare agradecida por dejarme enfrentar sola esta batalla.Gracias por creer en mi y en lo que estaba pasando,no cualquiera se habria tomado el tiempo de escucharme.Gracias a dios existen abogados como ella. Ademas quiero mencionar a su asistente Vanessa quien siempre me recibia con ese vaso de agua y me ayudaba a tomar con calma cada paso en este terrible proceso.

Child Support Case

I hired Hellen to handle my child support case from a coworker who’s ex had actually hired her! She was extremely thorough and prompt in all the paperwork filing and answering any questions I had. She is extremely knowledgeable with the law and explains options in an easy to understand manner. She a...lso followed through extensively in my case and made sure everything was completely wrapped up. Hope I don’t have to go through this again, but if I do, I know who I am hiring. I highly recommend her.

I would highly recommend her!

Even though my case was not as difficult as others she made me feel very comfortable from the begening... she explained every step and kept me well informed of everything with no surprises. When it came to court hearing she took care of it all with great professionalism and was able to win my case!... I am very thankful I hired her!

Excellent

I was coming out of a fog I had been in for several years, and Hellen was there for me every step of the way. She promptly answered calls and emails, even if just for re assurance :). We were fully prepared for mediation with my spouse, everything went smoothly and I am happy with my settlement. Hi...ghly recommended!

2017 Divorce/Custody case

I hired Hellen Hernandez initially to review and change some ambiguous orders from a divorce and custody case I had. When i was going through my divorce/custody I had hired someone that was pretty inexpensive since i didn't have a lot of money, nor did i know a lot about hiring a professional. I u...nfortunately did not have a good experience and now 2 years later am suffering from some mistakes that were made. Hellen was very professional and warm, and told me exactly what we could do/ask for, and what we could not. She was also honest in every step of the way in her billing, the legal process, and what she felt might happen. This was so refreshing! I knew where my case stood the entire time. I also appreciated the fact I was given options and that multiple decisions were given. She answered all my calls and emails promptly and even stayed late once so i could come in after work. Her dedication to her clients and her work shows! I also learned that when it comes to legal help trust your gut, ask questions, be honest in what you want, and understand that sometime you get what you pay for. So start off with someone great like Hellen.
