A Lawyer Who Truly Cares

I am so grateful to have had Attorney Alita de Asis by my side during my divorce. Going through this process was one of the hardest experiences of my life, and I honestly don’t know how I would have managed without her guidance and support. From the very beginning, she treated me not just as a client..., but as a person—listening carefully, answering every question (no matter how small), and helping me understand every step of the process. She has a rare combination of professionalism and genuine care. I always felt that my well-being was as important to her as the legal outcome, and that gave me immense peace of mind during an emotionally overwhelming time. Even when I felt stressed or unsure, she was patient, compassionate, and reassuring, helping me feel empowered to make decisions that were right for me and my family. I will forever be grateful for her kindness, patience, and expertise. She made a difficult journey feel manageable, and I truly felt supported every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce—you will not only have an outstanding lawyer, but also someone who genuinely cares about you and your future.

Amazing attorney with a genuine heart

From the moment I got off the phone with Alita after my free consultation, I knew she would be the one that I will be hiring to help me with my divorce and custody battle just by the connection we had. She genuinely took the time and effort to know my heart and desires for the outcome of this divorce... and custody battle. She constantly reminded me of what we are doing is best for the kids, which at the end of the day, is all that mattered. At the same time she was ready and willing to prevent me from being taken advantaged of and getting the short end of the stick (because alot of curve balls was getting thrown at us). But she is so knowledgeable and so professional that we were able to prove and respond by showing that alot of things being thrown at us was unnecessary and very one-sided. She is very sweet, but can and knows when it's time to put our foot down and stand our ground. She made this process so easy and stress reducing for me and always left me with a peace of mind that everything is going to work out. We were able to resolve issues with the divorce and custody before our court date which saved us alot of time, money and stress. Alita genuinely cared for my situation and did all that she could to make sure the best outcome would prevail. I highly recommend her. She will not let you down.

Lawyer who genuinely cares. You won’t find anyone better!

Alita helped me with my divorce and child custody. I couldn’t have asked for better representation! She is hands down the best lawyer out there. After our consultation, I could tell she genuinely cared and wanted to fight for me. She made me feel comfortable asking questions, was always up front, let... me know what my options were, and just overall very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will get things done in the best possible way. She is truly a blessing. Thank you again for everything Alita! I can’t say that enough. If you choose to work with her, you will not be disappointed.

Satisfied in Kapolei

Alita was a referral from close friend who raved about her excellence in service. During my first consult with Her I could already tell that she cares a lot for her clients and I was in need of switching over to a female who could understand where I was coming from as a mother or as a primary parent.... What a stood out for me with Alita is that she is very detailed, organized, and honest. She would always make time for me even if it was in evening hours she was willing to be flexible for that working parent. I was looking for someone to listen to me and put action behind it not just hear me and wing it the day of hearings. She came into my case a year in a half into divorce and was able to help settle it in one hearing. Through communication she was able to work with the other lawyer to look out for best interest of the children first and then the client. The best decision I made was to hire Alita, she told me it's harder to undue something once the decree or any agreements are made so even if it's last minute she encouraged me to review her background first before switching. She instilled confidence back into me that I would see better results that's why I chose to go with her. You will not be disappointed with her straight up nature and trustworthiness, and the heart she has for kids.

Father with Up hill battle

Alita was very professional from the start. With a flexible schedule we were able to meet evenings or even mornings on holidays to talk about the case. She was very organized and even when I didn't know what to say she asked the right questions to get me on track. In my divorce my ex had a lot of neg...ative evidence against me, and Alita would always remind me that we would be prepared to fight if needed but it was an uphill battle. She prepared a extensive and impressive position statement and on the day we had a motion to set for trial my ex finally settled. And I received everything I wanted and felt I deserved in the divorce. For two years we were separated and I tried to settle outside of court my ex wouldn't have it. I came to Alita with a little over 6 weeks till the motion to set and she got it done. Besides her professionalism she is a mother, and I feel she does care about her clients. She probably knows more about my life then I would tell my close friends, and she went out of her way to help me. I'm grateful to have hired her, it definitely worked out great.

"I have been practicing law in the state of California for the last 13 years. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing attorney Alita Ong De Asis for just as long. During that period of time, I have come to know Ms. De Asis as a hard-working, dedicated and compassionate litigant. She always has her clients’ best interest in mind and provides them with zealous representation. If one of my own relatives had an issue with a workers’ compensation, family law or bankruptcy matter, I would not hesitate to refer them to Ms. De Asis. I recommend her without reservation."
