Ululani Gayle Akiona

A hard divorce is all the harder when the fight is over child custody too. It's harder still when you live across the state from the courthouse and your lawyer. That's the situation I found myself in when I contacted Akiona Law to represent me. The 5-star rating is what Akiona Law earned. Eve...n though we were unable to meet in person, the firm made it clear they were dedicated to my case and passionate about representing me. The quality of communication I had with the firm also helped put me at ease about the outcome of the case and the fact that I wasn't there in person. One of Avvo's questions is "Would you recommend this laywer?" I actually already have and will gladly do so again. The firm delivered more than I could have asked for, during such a trying time. If there were more stars, I would click on them too.

Ululani, Nathan Cliber, and their team helped me resolve a multitude of issues in my extremely hairy parentage case. During my initial interview, Ululani and Nathan both grasped the whole scenario within minutes, and retained said information down to every last detail. They never forgot anything thro...ughout my entire 2.5 year case. Both Ululani and Nathan are wonderful attorneys who are responsive to their clients needs and are willing to strongly advocate for them. Both are very quick, intelligent, and really fight for their clients. On top of that duo, their team is extraordinary and when things are difficult, they are all there to keep you on track with next steps and what to expect. Ululani and Nathan are very clear, remember everything, are extremely communicative, and never leave you confused or wondering what is going on. They even go so far as to CC you on emails with the opposing party; you are never out of the loop with them. There are no questions when you’re represented by Ululani and/or Nathan. They keep you informed and help you know what is in the best interest of your case. If that wasn’t enough, they go above and beyond, and are always very thorough. Both will straight shoot information, but in a tactful manner. In the midst of my really hairy custody case, it was Ululani and Nathan that really helped ease my fears and stress. Without their reassurance and knowledge, I would have been a wreck. It’s difficult to trust someone you don’t know to help make the best decisions for what will end up being your child’s (and yours) life. But with Ululani and Nathan, I trust them 100%. They both are fantastic, brilliant and very easy to work with. I highly recommend them. I was for sure very lucky to have them representing me.

I went to the Akiona Law Firm needing help with changing my parenting plan. My ex was threatening to move with our kids and I didn't know what my legal options were to stop this. After reviewing my information and talking with Ms. Akiona, I felt much better. She explained my rights to me and laid out... a plan of action. Through the entire process I was kept informed each step of the way. Ms. Akiona was easily reachable through email and phone whenever I had a question. Her paralegal was also very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining things to me. I feel that my case was handled in a timely manner and would return to Akiona Law should the need arise.

The first time I met with Lani I knew she was the right fit for my situation. After listening patiently to my story she was able to formulate a plan of action that would result in a profitable settlement through Mediation . Her knowledge, compassion & availability gave me the confidence I needed to... get through a very difficult time. I am very gratefull for the financial outcome we obtained as well as knowing Lani as a person and would highly recommend her legal counsel!

From the day I met her, Lani was incredibly respectful of my situation and my time. She listened to my situation, understood exactly where I was and what needed to be done, and was able to lay out a plan that we mutually agreed would be the best case scenario. Lani executed the plan flawlessly, kept ...me informed of the progress of my case, and provided situational awareness to me the entire time. Lani is very professional, educated and knowledgeable, both sympathetic and empathetic to my needs. I would (and have) recommend her to my family, friends and constituents.
