I had low expectations due to a previous bad experience with an unresponsive and distracted attorney. Justin is extremely professional and honest. Each time I met with him by phone and in person, it was evident that he had recently reviewed my case. He was very clear from our first conversation in regards to what he felt would be a realistic outcome. He was always available to answer questions and clarify. I highly recommend.
I hired Mr. Arnold for an ongoing alimony case. At our first meeting, Justin was able to give me a good idea of what he could do for me. I was thoroughly impressed with his ability in the courtroom. Mr. Arnold researched all aspects of my case, executed his strategy perfectly and got the outcome I was hoping for. Justin doesn't waste clients time, listens and is very honest. I cannot thank Mr. Arnold and the Fernandez Law staff enough!

"Justin is a very impressive family law / divorce attorney. Justin sets himself apart with his intellect. Justin is very intelligent and approaches each of his cases in a very thoughtful and methodical way. Justin is a student of the law and takes great effort to understand the finer nuances of the law that are lost even some of the more experienced family law attorney.

"In order to understand how good of an attorney Justin Arnold is, you need to know a little about his boss, Cameron Fernandez.
I was first introduced to Justin by Cameron. In my opinion, Cameron is simply the finest family law attorney in the state. Unfortunately, Cameron is so uncommonly good at his profession, that he is simply unimpressed by virtually every other attorneys he meets. However, when Cameron introduced me to Justin Arnold, I was shocked to learn that Cameron was absolutely in love with Justin as an attorney. He told me that Justin was bright, conscientious, detail oriented, and that he could instill confidence in clients. I was stunned that Cameron had found an associate who met his extraordinarily high standards.
I have since come to learn for myself that Justin is in fact a uniquely diligent, conscientious, client-focused, detail oriented attorney. On top of that, he has a great personality that makes him a joy to work with. I highly recommend Justin."
