Sandra P Naranjo

I hired Sandra after having hired, and consulted with more than 30 attorneys! My case unfortunately began almost 10 years ago (2008). I hired Sandra around May 2017. After having to deal with so many attorneys, I knew I would know if she was worth it, after 10 mins. I knew immediately that Sandra was... the attorney I needed! She was honest, persistent, and even accepted my 3am phone call. I truly wish that Sandra would have been my attorney from the beginning, I know my case would not have been dragged out for 10 YEARS! In the past I paid top dollar for an attorney, I can say first hand that Sandra has so much power in her corner she could charge those same rates. I am greatful everyday that I met the right attorney for my case. I say these things not because we won, but because she never gave up and was dedicated to me. I know this is the type of attention she shows all of her clients. It’s easy to be vulnerable when you’re going through a divorce/custody case (attorneys know this and use it to their advantage). Sandra knew how desperate I was and she did not treat me as such. I hope anyone reading this considering hiring an attorney, does more than look at the price. Sandra is worth every penny!

Sandra took over my divorce modification case which included child support, custody, parenting time, and division of marital property. Sandra assured me she would take care of me and to not worry. She listened to my case and was genuinly concerned for what i was going through. She believed in me. I a...m a good father and provider to my children and needed someone who believed in me to represent me. I was very happy with her rate. I gladly would have paid more for her services if i had the means. Sandra is very hard working. I received email's from her at all hours of the day, late sometimes and even on the weekend which let me know she was hard at work on my case she never rested. She even came in to her office on Saturday just for me because of my late hours during the work week. She was fierce and argued my case without backing down. I was very happy with the end result. Sandra also stuck by me through the sale of my home and the split on the home was very fair. I am packing as we speak. My house closes on the 26th of this month and I can finally have some peace of mind. I know who to call if I ever need to hire a excellent attorney.

I went to Sandra the so called attorney about a case with me and my ex. I was shocked that I knew more about the court process and paperwork than she did. She kept asking me how I wanted to "get back" at my ex. After following up numerous times she didn't even remember who I was and remembered nothin...g about my case. It was so disappointing for someone who was supposed to care about me and my child. She was all about the money asking me to just pay one flat rate and she would take care of things. It seemed like a scam so I went to an actual attorney who didn't play games. So disappointed in her and her abilities. I would advise you to look elsewhere if you want someone who actually cares about you and your family.

Sandra offered me a flat rate but did not attempt to renegotiate terms when the other party turned out to cause her several more weeks to months of work than she had anticipated. Instead, she chose to stop representing my interests and accepted whatever opposing counsel offered. Her communication ski...lls are severely lacking. On our last appearance in court, the judge spent 15 minutes scolding her and opposing counsel for not appearing when summoned -- I was the only party that showed and had to reschedule time off from work to appear on short notice two weeks hence.

My wife and I have been using Sandra as our legal council since 2008. My wife got in touch with her when Sandra was with another lawfirm. She liked her so much that when Sandra left that firm and opened her own practice we followed her as well. Our story starts as many do with my wife divorc...ing her extremely abusive husband in 2008. She had two sweet little boys with him and anyone who has kids in a divorce knows it can get ugly fast. She had moved to Portland and needed a lawyer to represent her. Enter Sandra. She made things simple for my wife. Easy to understand. Not using a lot of big legal jargon. She helped my wife through some really tough times, filing the exact paperwork she needed and even getting a temperary protective order for her and the kids just in the nick of time before the ex took the boys to California! This short note cannot begin to describe everything she has done for my wife and our two boys. I married my wife in June of 2009 and met Sandra for the first time. I had heard a lot about her from my wife of course but when I met Sandra I liked her right off the bat. She laid things out for me and my wife in plain terms so we could understand, but also kept it in perspective by letting us know every scenario. We went back to court over custody and talk about having someone in your corner! She got the Judge to grant the ex-husband the least amount of parenting time even "she" had ever seen! Evertime the ex would hit us with some paperwork Sandra was right there to send even more right back at him. It has finally come to an end though. Sandra has just got done filling the adoption paperwork. It's a pretty good feeling when the other guys' lawyer drops out because your lawyer is the best! The ex even commented on Sandra, saying he wished his lawyer had worked that hard for him. Fees are very reasonable and the professionalism is unmatched. I have delt with my fair share of lawyers in the past but Sandra felt more like a friend to us than our legal council. I have received bills from lawyers in the past and thought to myself, "What did you do for me again? Nine hours researching what?" But with Sandra we knew exactly what she had done. Everything is spelled out. She communicates very promply and returns phone calls and e-mails at lightning speed. She would meet with us several times before court appearances to discuss stratagy and have a post meeting right after court to discuss just what had happened. And I would say the best quality about her, and there are a lot to choose from, is the fact that she listens to what you want to do...and then goes and executes it! If you are thinking about hiring a lawyer than look no further! She is not only a good lawyer, she is a good person who cares deeply about her clients and doens't view them as dollar signs. Your case and most importantly you and your family will be in good hands with Sandra Naranjo representing you. Reg Portland, OR
