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.

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.

Someone on my side

The start of a divorce process is intimidating and draining. Hiring Vanessa was the best decision I’ve made during this painful process. She helped me with correctly filing all the forms, serving papers to my ex wife and making sure that my interests were protected under the applicable laws. Vanessa ...took the time to explain the process and kept a schedule to expedite the filing. I am very grateful of her services.
