Kristy Lee Arellano

I had an excellent experience working with Kristy Arellano during my divorce. She was highly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the entire process. Kristy communicated clearly, responded promptly, and ensured that I understood all aspects of my case. Her legal guidance gave me con...fidence and peace of mind during a very challenging time. What distinguishes her is her strong commitment to her clients. Even under difficult personal circumstances, she remained dedicated and made sure my case continued to move forward without unnecessary delays. I am very grateful for her support and representation. I would strongly recommend Kristy Arellano to anyone seeking a skilled and compassionate attorney.

Ms Arrellano took on my annulment case while I was dealing with another criminal infraction against my spouse. She was very understanding, compassionate and sympathetic to my legal needs and very interested of my personal well being., I was a hot mess, a wreck both physically and emotionally. We got ...the judge to finalize and grant us the annulment on 1/3/25. What a great way to start the New Year! I would recommend Ms. Arrellano to anyone needing legal assistance, she is a rock star in my eyes and a blessing to me. Thank you, again Kristy!

I consulted Kristy Arellano, in May of 2022. Hired her and paid her by July of 2022. I presented her with all documentation and history about my case. I had already filed for my divorce on my own all I needed her help with was getting my divorce finalized and my children back into my custody full tim...e. I contacted her waiting for her to get back to me on what other information she needed for the case. She didn’t respond. She put my kids on hold for 19 months. 19 months I had to pay a huge amount in temporary child support, I kept asking her to help me get it reduced since it’s more than 60% of my income. She didn’t care. We finally went to court after hiring her 19 months before. She finally looking into my income and the child support situation and she was shocked the day of court over the amount I was paying and my actual income. 19 months of unnecessary stress because she didn’t want to help me. She spoke to my husband’s attorney about everything and he said that they’re keep the child support amount going and I’m allowed 50/50 custody. I’m sorry, but I thought she was my attorney, that’s not in my best interest. I looked at her in shock after she relayed the information and said my income amount needs to be fix and the amount I pay is ahead by 5 years or more with them being in my care and my parents care with them allegedly being full custody by my husband. She didn’t know how to answer that. She looked very confused. I presented her again with my earnings report and she didn’t want to ask for anything to be reviewed since the beginning of the temporary order was filed. I’m out thousands of dollars. After the court hearing had been rescheduled I knew I had to do something because she was t going to fight for me or my children. At this rate I’d loose my children and still have to pay 60% of my earnings and still be stuck with nothing but the marital debt. I made a review that evening. The following morning, Kristy finally did something for my case, she WITHDREW! After 19 months of not filing anything for me she WITHDREW! Now I had to hire a new attorney and pay thousands more because she FAILED to do what I HIRED her for. She never reviewed anything for my case, she wasn’t prepared nor did she review my evidence or give me a voice. I had to stay married longer and suffer because she couldn’t do what I hired her for. Don’t waste your money. Go somewhere else.

I have custody of my children because of Ms. Arellano. I had been going through my divorce for two years, with a previous attorney who really felt like he knew nothing about my family but would bill me constantly. When I met Ms. Arellano, I knew she was different. She remembered every detail of my... case and felt like a friend. In court, she was razor sharp and proved my husband to be a liar. My kids are so happy now. Thank you for everything.

Me, a mother seeking divorce and looking to overturn a temporary custody order that was in place for 6 months. We, Ms. Arellano and I were assigned a judge in our case who rarely ever goes against pre-existing orders. Well with Ms. Arellano's knowledge of exactly which points to raise, which points t...o leave alone, and her guidance on how to approach testimony, I was able not only to be granted 50/50 custody as we had hoped in vain that this judge would grant, but a complete reversal of the order. The judge overturned an existing order in place for 6 months!!! Kristy Arellano is no joke....highly recommended. Thank you!!!
