Alan Yuzo Okamoto

Receiving a summons to appear for court, regarding any matter, isn’t the type of invitation most look forward to. When the summons regards a custodial matter, which for me was the case, the court appearance invitation was all the more unwelcomed because of the heavy cloud it places above those invol...ved. I have to admit that a hearing summons, such as this, brought upon charged emotions, racing thoughts, and unwanted worries that not only affected me but also affected my family. I’m a fully employed, middle aged local Father of four, Grandfather of three, and dedicated family man who has zero knowledge of custody court ins and outs, which is what compelled me to reach out and hire Alan Okamoto. Having Alan Okamoto at my side and in my corner, throughout the custody process, was not only one of the wisest choices I’ve made but also one of thee most the life changing experiences my family and I are forever grateful for! Alan demonstrates extensive knowledge of the family court system, exemplary finesse, tenacious representation style, and down-to-earth attorney-client interactions. Alan Okamoto was also instrumental at keeping me relaxed, with an eased state of mind, positively focused at work and happily present for my family. Thanks to this Attorney of primary choice, my custodial matter was resolved by the second court hearing. I’m forever grateful to Alan for taking everything ON, helping me reach the outcome I prayed for, and for settling my custodial case in a peaceful positive manner.

I required immediate help with my Criminal defense “Harassment” case. Alan was recommended by my divorce attorney. He reached out very promptly and guided me step by step through my case. On top of resolving/dismissing my Harassment case, he helped me to clean my record, including my overlooked old w...arrant. I cannot thank him enough for the great job he did for me - especially for clearing my way to obtaining my US citizenship. His finesse and expertise in his field is exceptional. I am recommending Mr. Okamoto as a skilled, conscientious and concerned man who will be fighting on your behalf.

I had been going through my divorce case off and on for 7 years and I knew it was time for it to finally be over. I also was dealing with custody of my children so I needed someone who I knew would be firm and help me get what was reasonable but also be fair. Alan was always very up front on what cos...ts I would incur and what steps needed to happen. He showed up and fought for what I wanted and also helped advise me when things didn't always go as planned. He always got back to me very quickly and made sure I knew what was going on and where my case stood. He walked me through each step and I am happy to say I was very content with the outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to help me finally finish up this chapter of my life.

Alan led me through the whole legal process after I was arrested. I had no clue who to hire, what to say, who to turn to, as I had never been in this position before. Thankfully Alan is/was very professional in helping me deal with the whole process from start to finish. I was in a tough spot as i wa...s set to leave the island to move back to the mainland before my court date; and he was able to be present in court for me and handle all of the paperwork and legal proceedings. While this all happened; he was readily available for contact, and kept me up-to-date with updates when they became available. I highly suggest Alan to be your rep if you run into legal trouble for custody/marriage/criminal defense issues! Thank you Mr. Okamoto.

Alan helped me through a tough time with a misdemeanor case. His expertise and experience reassured me that everything would work out, and he was kind and considerate throughout the entire process. My charge was ultimately reduced down to a violation with a small fine- He was able to get me out of a ...long and weary trial, and the end result was much better than one that would have come from a lengthy court case. He saved me a lot of time, money, and stress. I’m thankful to have found Alan, as he really knows how to handle cases with finesse and ease, and is well respected in the industry. I hope I never have to utilize a defense attorney again, but if I ever do, I know that Alan is the guy to go to. Highly recommend!
