Veronica A. Freitas

I hired Veronica to represent me in a very messy and difficult CIR lawsuit that had been brought against me. Veronica and her team were amazing. They took care of every detail, kept track of all filing deadlines and what was needed from me and when, which took a lot of the stress and pressure off of me. She represented me completely at all hearings and had excellent rapport with the judges. She truly fought for me and I know she and her team are the reason everything turned out so well for me. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing legal representation.

Veronica was recommended to me through a close friend, at a time when I was at my lowest. I'd just been assaulted by my husband of nearly 20 years, who was/is a complete textbook covert narcissist. As soon as we met for the consultation I just knew I was in good hands and that Veronica would fight the good fight for me in my divorce. It was a grueling 12+ months but through the whole thing Veronica never lost sight of our goals and in the end I got what was fair and just. I truly believe I would not have gotten the outcome we did had I hired another attorney.

I was recommended Veronica and her firm by a friend of the family. My soon to be ex-husband is a very challenging person to work with and my number 1 goal through the entire process was to do what is fair and what is right. I appreciate that Veronica and her firm helped to support me in those desires while protecting me from being bullied by my ex. They helped me not only navigate through the divorce and mediation process, but also helped with communications with the ex when he was less than appropriate on numerous occasions. They helped remind me that the boundaries I had set around my children were not only fair, they were just and that he needed to respect those boundaries. I also used Fierce to describe this group because while my case was settled it mediation, it was clear they knew when and where to be fierce and that is what you want when someone is advocating for your rights and the rights of your children. Should this have gone to trial, I have no doubt that Veronica and her team would have been nothing short of phenomenal. I worked a lot with Amy in dealing with various correspondence with my ex and she was truly amazing. While I feel for anyone reading this review in need of a lawyer, I could not recommend Veronica and her team more.

Veronica Freitas and her team went above and beyond to fight for me in a custody case to insure my son resided with me, his Mom. She is an excellent listener, articulate, thoughtful, and compassionate. Her paralegal, Amy, touched base with me daily and helped me navigate through an extremely emotional & stressful case. She made sure I had all of the valuable & necessary information needed to win my case. When the opposing lawyer attempted to bend the laws in their favor, she was quick to point out the inadequacies in their argument and poked many holes in their case. As a result, the case was dismissed. Veronica and her team continue to check on me and my son and our safety even though the case has ended. What a blessing to have this thoughtful, astute, and powerful force on my side. I am eternally grateful to have found her during one of the most difficult, stressful, & gut wrenching times in my life. I highly recommend VFreitas law if you want to feel properly guided & protected!

I really enjoyed working with Veronica. Her team is smart, quick, intelligent, and very supportive. I trusted her and her team with the well-being of myself and my 2 boys. I can strongly recommend her to your family. I could always call with a question or concern. Emails were responded to with thoughtful and smart answers. This team is about getting the job done, and done well. Thank you Veronica, Amy, and team for the work you did for me!

Veronica’s initial legal consultation was uncomfortable for me because I wanted to get out of a damaged marriage as quickly as possible, but I now regret not taking the steps she suggested. She was patient with me the entire time and her counsel was professional and what anyone could use when you’re undergoing stress and can’t think as clearly as she evidently does for her clients. I’d highly recommend her over who I ended up with, unfortunately. Go with Veronica without a doubt.

As a father, I was trapped for 3 years in family law hell. Having spent hundreds of thousands of dollars with incompetent buffoons, I felt defeated and lost. They created such a mess for me and my two children and things just kept going from bad to worse. It was by mere chance on a Saturday afternoon that I discovered Veronica and her team. It was the best thing that ever happened to me. Within months of having onboarded Veronica's crew, my judge recused herself, I was granted sole custody of my two small children and I now reside in a different state. All of that versus the "you're asking for the impossible" from the big firm law attorneys. What I've learned: - Veronica's team is the best you are ever going to get - Her fees are incredibly reasonable - Hate, nonsense and rhetoric from bozo attorneys on the other side simply can't match the knowledge, expertise and ability to cut to the heart of the matter from Veronica's team. So what's the bottom line? Look, it's simple: If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... Veronica's A-Team.

Thank You for handling my divorce / Case. You told me not to worry and that I was in good hands and your words became true. I appreciate the amazing professionalism of the whole team. Michael is not only an outstanding lawyer but was such a quality and nice person to work with. Even though you handle issues of tremendous gravity on a daily basis, everyone was so compassionate and caring and helpful. I felt your service was amazing, demonstrated a high level of professional integrity, and was reasonable and fair. My experience with you, Michael, Amy, Beth, Christopher , Valerie, and Silinda was outstanding -- I hope to not ever go through the experience again but you and everyone associated with V. Fretas law will be at the top of my list of recommendations when and if my friends find themselves in similar situations. Again, I just want to say -- Thank You ,

Veronica is smart, efficient and isn't intimidated. She and her office are professional and supportive. She came on late in my case, when my former attorney was intimated by my X's lawyer. Veronica didn't skip a beat and didn't even need extensions. She knows the law inside and out, and is an excellent trial attorney. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to feel protected and well represented. She doesn't sugar coat things. Time and money aren't wasted when you deal with her. She will have your back and fight for you.

Calling and emailing other attorneys to only hear sorry I don't have enough time to take your case. (Sound familiar?). Quick note I only had 2 weeks before my first case and Veronica was the only attorney that was able to squeeze me in. Well I was fortunate enough to have two attorneys in my search that mentioned Veroinca Freitas!!! Let me tell you that making that call to Veronica was the best thing I have done for my child. Compasionate, Caring, Thoughtful and most of all Understanding. Is she aggressive? YES! Does she put her clients first? YES! Does she get results? Most Definitely YES! But I think it is also very important to mention that Veronica does not do it alone. Veronica has an awesome team that backs her up and are very involved with everything that goes on in your case. "The Team" as I call them are all highly motivated super heros that go above and beyond. Veronica can only come up with a solid arguments for your case with the information you give her and her team exploits all avenues by asking the right questions and finding the right material to build the arguments for your case. Is it frustrating at times? YES! but let me be the first to assure you that it is all worth it. My frustration is not from Veronica and her team, my frustration is from apposing counsel asking for silly and questionable material. Veronica and her team are there to walk you through the legal mess. Believe me I thought I was going to be able to defend myself. NO FREAKING WAY! without Veronica and her team to help guide me through the legal maze, I would have lost everything. I would have been feeling defeated and I would have lost visitation rights to my child. But that did not happen and I am greatful for Veronica and her team. They all continue to impress me and have been nothing short of AWESOME!

I must have done something good to have been blessed with Veronica and her team. They are a wonderful team and, against tough odds, we won the custody case and I can continue to be a father, and the primary parent, to my kids. Veronica is brilliant, compassionate, professional, efficient, and direct. Also, she is a sight to see in the courtroom. If you have the unfortunate experience of going to trial, you’ll be extremely happy that Veronica is on your side and not the opposing counsel. If you can avoid going to court, Veronica will not allow you to get a raw deal. In addition to Veronica, her whole team is kind, thoughtful, engaged, and knows me. They are responsive, calm, warm, and tough. It has been a joy for me to have their support through this most difficult experience of my life. I learned so much from both Veronica and Amy and I’ve come out a better person for the experience.

Over three years ago, I was blessed to retain Veronica as my family law attorney. She and her amazing staff have been invaluable walking alongside me during a challenging situation. I was blind sided by ex-husband's decision to leave our marriage of 17+ years. He forced me to sign an agreement that demanded my kids and I to move across the county, limited my cusody and provided no financial support. From the moment of my consultaion with Veronica, she had an accurate read on my situation and advised me on what to expect from the court system and my ex-husband. Her recommendations were not what I wanted to hear at the time, but her presentation was compassionate and professional. Veronica helped me to take control of my situation. My case was complicated by my ex-husband's unusual behavior, abusive use of conflict and consistent disregard to follow court orders. In the past 36 months, Veronica has appeared in family court > 30 times on my behalf. She is articulate, prepared and effective. I am always grateful for her calm and professional manner as well as her ability to advoacte on behalf on my children and me. She has walked me through the steps of getting bench warrants issued, court orders copied, protection orders issued and many other legal processes that are foreign to me. On numerous occasions, other parties in the courtroom have asked me for my attorny's contact information as they are impressed with her abilities and interested in hiring such a well spoken, calm and effective attorney. Veronica and her staff respond quickly and thouroughly to emails. I had several frightening situations where my children were not able to be located while in their dad's custody or domestic violence situtiaons. Veronica repsonded to me after hours, on weekends and even while away on vacation so that she could advise me on how to handle the situation. This practice is small but it is an advantage as Veronica is intimately involved in my case and her lead paralegal, Amy, is the one person working wtih me for all motions and paperwork. Amy often remembers important details that I have forgotten during such a stressful time. Both Veronica and Amy write well. After reading so many declarations from my ex-husband's multiple councils, I appreciate the consise, professional, truthful and well written declarations that are produced on my behalf. Veronica and Amy are always senstive to my children. When calling they make sure I am able to speak freely without little ears hearing uncomfortable conversations. I was able to observe Veronica work well and cooperate with a variety of opposing councils as my ex husband had >19 attorneys (family law and criminal) represent him during the past 3 years. Veronica worked with my ex husband during many of his pro se stints, as well. She was patient and despite his challenging behaviors, kept my kids and me as her priority. Billing is well documented and fair. I have consistently felt that she has under billed me for emails/ conversations. Veronica is a very stong advocate who is well respected, knowledgable, hard working, compassionalte and committed to her clients. Her support staff is personable, kind, professional and eager to help. Sadly, I have endured a long divorce process, however; Veroncia has done a wonderful job advocating for my kids and me. I recommend her with my whole heart.

I hired Veronica Freitas to represent me after my ex objected to the relocation of our children. Veronica and her staff were everything I wanted when dealing with this stressful situation: responsive, knowledgeable, understanding, and efficient. She explained the process and the possible outcomes, prepared key documents in a timely manner, and kept me informed throughout the process. With her expertise and guidance, I avoided a costly trial and was able to relocate my children. I wish I would have known of her sooner so I could have hired her as my divorce lawyer! I highly recommend Veronica and her staff.

Veronica helped me through a very rough and complicated divorce. Due to the difficult nature of my divorce, Veronica stayed in constant contact with me throughout the divorce and always enumerated multiple options throughout the process. She helped me get temporary orders in place to negate previously bad judgments on my part regarding the divorce as well as allow me to see my child as my ex was preventing me from visits. She managed to avoid a trial which I was certain would happen given her ex's previous actions. I cannot recommend her enough as I would not be in the state I am now without her. I am now having amazing visits with my child again and all is well.

Veronica went above and beyond what I expected out of an attorney. She was smart and aggressive when it came to fighting my messy child custody case. She always made me feel comfortable and informed of my options. Most importantly I felt confident she was going to fight for my ideal outcome which she did and now my case is settled. I also feel like she didn't charge an arm and a leg for her services which was an added bonus. I would 100% use her services in the future.
