Derek G Medina

Mr. Medina represented me well in my case regarding custody and my parenting plan revision. I am a single non-custodial father that just wanted fair and equitable time with my kids. Their mother and I were working off an outdated parenting plan that had many holes in it. Derek was very good at helping promote fair change that was adopted into the new plan. We went to trial over differences due to the kids moving further away and Mr. Medina fought to minimize my pick-up travel distance. When the kids mother refused visitation after parenting plan revision, Derek ensured contempt was charged and i have had no visitation no-shows since. He is aggressive in court and knows how to put it all together to give proper representation. If provided good documentation by his clients, I am confident Mr. Medina can help you to reach a fair outcome that is in the best interest of your children.

Over the course of many years, I have required legal counsel in different states where I have resided. Therefore, I feel qualified in commenting on the quality of the legal services I have received from Mr. Derek Medina. I was, and still am, totally impressed with Mr. Derek Medina’s commitment to providing his clients with outstanding services (the best I have ever received). Mr. Medina’s responsiveness has been the most prompt that I have experienced from ANY legal counsel. Another trait of Mr. Medina’s that I feel is important to mention is his sincerity and focus about alleviating or solving his client’s issues. I am completely satisfied with the legal services I have received from Mr. Medina. Through his patient efforts, a very stressful and vexing, long-term problem was resolved. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Mr. Derek Medina as legal counsel.

Unlike the other lawyers I've had, Medina kept me informed on the status of my case, and what to expect on upcoming court proceedings.

I made the mistake of hiring Derek Medena. He was terrible, my 1st hearing, nothing got accomplished. I should have cut my losses right there when all he did was stutter away, and literally helped the other party. (He did apologize for that) During the second hearing he told me to show up at the courthouse and after waiting there for over 45 minutes for him he wasn't there. When I called he stated to come to his office, where he did not defend me whatsoever. When the ruling came the feed on his phone cut out and could not understand the ruling. He stated that he will finalize it within 2 weeks. When the two weeks was approaching I called his office to find out the final ruling, and where I sit, and ask why didn't he defend me or bring up any of the issues when the other party just had to lie there way thru the hearing. I was told by his staff that they were out of town and that he has other more important clients. When I stated that had I known that his staff would not be in town and that my case wouldn't be taken seriously, I would have went to another lawyer that had staff and cared about my case. I got hung up on and told not not to contact his office again.
