An attorney you can count on

I am grateful to have found such an amazing attorney like Vanessa. I was struggling with navigating my custody case as it was very last minute. Vanessa was quick to get back to me and had all the qualities one would want when handling such a difficult time. She is honest, she let me know during our c...onsultation the realties of my situation and steps that needed to be taken in order to file things in a timely manner. I appreciated that all my communication has been only through Vanessa directly over the phone, emails, or even in person. Vanessa communicates everything to me so I am kept in the loop and answers all my questions in a timely manner. Vanessa also used her experience and knowledge of family law to guide me through my case, providing me with reasonable options, and preparing me for what could happen. Overall I would recommend Vanessa to any individual seeking a family law attorney. This is by far one of the toughest events in my life but having Vanessa has made me feel more at ease.

Review

Went in for a consultation with Vanessa and she was very informative and cared about my needs. She took the time to explain how the process goes and how much time it would take. She made me feel very at ease with my situation and confidant in knowing I will be in good hands. I highly recommend her

Divorce and custody case

I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude to Vanessa Valenzuela. Going through divorce and child custody is a heart wrenching experience but she was able to make it much easier for me. From the moment I met Vanessa, she was professional, honest, reassuring and solution focused, at the same ti...me very compassionate. Vanessa is very knowledgeable and competent, she goes obove and beyond to provide the best service. Thank you Vanessa for your efforts to get the best possible outcome for me.

phenomenal lawyer

Venessa is a wonderful lawyer to work with. She is honest, knowledgeable, and gets things done promptly. My divorce case should have been straight forward and quick, however the other side was difficult to work with and dragged out the case. Vanessa handled the situation well by strategizing and bein...g forceful when needed, without creating greater conflict or having to go to court. She is also very fair with her billing practices and was available to talk through my concerns (and frustrations with my ex) when needed. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer who gets the job done with integrity.

Brilliant

Divorce is an overwhelming process that many of us never think of experiencing. Fortunately there are attorneys like Vanessa that are able to give you a clear step by step explanation and concise information that will help you find the correct path. I couldn’t thank this BRILLIANT woman who is dedic...ated to ensuring her clients are well informed every step of the way. A million stars if I could.
