Amazing Attorney!

I hired Valerie Bell to represent me last June. She was very knowledgeable and clearly experienced, but my favorite thing about her was that she was so understanding. Everything I talked to her about she understood why I was feeling that way and believed in me even if it was about an issue that wasn'...t worth bringing to court. In which case she would explain to me why it wasn't something we should bring to court. In the courtroom she was professional and very prepared and it really showed when we won the court case. She is the best attorney I have ever worked with, and if I need one in the future, she will be the only one on my list to call.

Extremely satisfied

Valerie Bell, was recommended to me by a friend of mine who went through a similar situation. It was the very first time I had to deal with a legal matter and I felt very intimidated and overwhelmed.as I had the complication of dealing with a total different lingo, not in my native language. Dur...ing my ordeal, Mrs Bell has been extremely helpful and understanding in explaining to me the the law and the details of my divorce. She has truly navigated me to a very good settlement and provided me with sensible advise without being pushy. I would also like to mentioned that she was always promptly available to answer all my questions and very receptive to my input. It has been real pleasure working with Mrs bell and I strongly recommend her

Recommendation

A divorce is a vulnerable time in life it's important to have someone guiding you though the legal process that is both trustworthy and knowledgeable. Valerie was excellent at representing my interest while being frank and honest about my options. Even when it came to billing she was respectful of ...my financial commitment and billed just for the time she spent on my case. And although I wouldn't want another reason in my life to work through a divorce; I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Valerie Bell.

RELIABLE EXCELLENT LAWYER

I highly recommend Valerie Bell for her excellent service in helping me with my divorce case. She was also very responsive and sympathetic in my situation. Ms. Bell not only possesses rich knowledge in her line of work, more importantly, she has such a kind heart. She is efficient, professional a...nd extremely responsive. Her assistant Melissa Wong is always on top of things. Ms. Bell always encouraged both parties to resolve conflicts with constructive approach which is beneficial for both parties, especially for the children involved. I highly recommend Ms. Bell as a lawyer.

incredible!!!!

I have actually already referred Valerie Bell to SEVERAL friends!!! I was referred to her from another attorney who was a friend and wanted the best possible legal support and advice for me during my divorce... Wow, did I get it!! Valerie is calm, wise, insightful and thougthful. She gave excell...ent and practical advice throughout the process and made what is possibly the most stressful event in one's life a million times better. She never provoked things to get worse; instead she gave me insight to make decisions that have served me (and more importantly, my child) for the long run. I recommend her without reservation. I recently referred her to one of my dearest friends and watched Valerie make everything all right for her as well. The legal process was as short as it could be and the outcome was really the best it could be. I cannot think of a better teammate during the horrible process of any family law issue. I trust Valerie Bell more than I can ever articulate.
