Araceli Amaya victory in the relocation of our granddaughter

Araceli represented my daughter in a parehtal matter involving the relocation of her family to another state. It was a difficult situation, Araceli handled it in a most professional manner.

Review of Araceli Amaya

I really enjoyed working with Araceli. She was thorough, smart, gave good, solid advice but also took what I wanted and how I felt into account. She was very reliable and did a good job especially in comparison to the opposing lawyer we had to work with during the divorce. She ensured the process wen...t as smoothly as possible and I really appreciated her appreciation and patience with my feelings. I felt what was in my best interest as both a client and a person were respected. This was especially important to me when having to work out my parenting plan and the whole process with my kids. I also liked that she was straightforward and honest. Particularly in my negotiation of alimony and when I was able to be aggressive vs. just having to wait out the process. There were times I would have liked information to be sent more proactively explaining what was happening and timeline particularly at the end of the process. But, whenever I asked for information it was answered promptly. I did have to switch paralegals three times and do feel like the last one I worked with Johnna was the best of them all.

The best Attorney EVER!!!

ABSOLUTELY the best attorney ever!!! I cannot say enough good things about Araceli. I hired the law firm of Susan Millican O'Brian in August 2011 for a Third Party Custody Case of my grandsons after my son was stabbed and Araceli Amaya was assigned to my case. She was very professional and handl...ed every matter of my Third Party Custody case with grace and dignity. Even the judge commented in the final ruling, that he found her to be very professional and that she was always on time, presented the correct documents to the courts and that she was a pleasure for him to work with. Although the case was pretty simple in the beginning, it became a high profile, difficult case due to other parties filing a custody case against me. It was THEIR attorney that kept dragging it out. But Araceli and her assistant were able to push back on the other party and in the end, we did prevail and won the case hands down. If you need a great attorney and not sure who to stand by you during your family case, do not hesitate to choose Araceli. You will not be disappointed.

Thank you! What I thought was going to be the worst experience in my life actually ended on a good note. My husband and I were both ready to move on and Araceli helped us reach our goals.

Araceli Amaya was a great relief to me after I had spent useless time and money for a previous attorney who did little for me overall. Araceli was always quick to respond to my question, was thorough and, in the end, saved me over $5000.00 that the previous attorney would have, undoubtedly missed. ...I would highly recommend her as an honest representative in any divorce proceeding.
