I needed her help regards to my divorce .You will find ourself poring out your soul, and I am not one to let on about my private life. I make my mistakes but prefer to learn from it and move on. She never rushes, keeps you informed and updated. She works long hours and I can attest to that by the emails that she wrote and sent in the early morning hours. She has a very calm way about her that will calm you down. If you need help, at least see her and find out for yourself. I would have given her 10 stars if I could. Valerie S.

If you are looking for an honest, caring, understanding family law attorney, who is also…read moreprofessional, knowledgeable, and willing to go to bat for you, look no further than Paula Robinson. Paula has worked with me through my divorce (amicable) and custody (not so amicable). Throughout the entire process Paula acted as not only good legal council, but as a support for me. She made sure I understood the legal process, recommended top notch professionals for me to const with, and most importantly, Paula told it to me straight. Sometimes the truth is hard to hear but she never shied away from being true, real, and honest. I don't know if I would have made it out of the challenging process (at least it was challenging in my case) with my sanity without Paula. She is a tremendous resource and I can not recommend her services, and her, more.

Anytime you ask about filing something, she reminds you how expensive it is and how much it will cost. She strikes me as ready to take your retainer but lazy when it comes down to representing you. There are better attorneys in Monterey who don't take nearly two weeks to reply to your emails.

I've always found her to be thoughtful and insightful regarding the best way to approach cases. Even some extremely complex cases which attorneys sometimes have a hard time figuring out have been very well handled by Sheri's office. I have always felt she advocates strongly for her clients and communicates well with them. She does not tend to make a lot of noise, but keeps her focus on the important issues in the case which ends with the best result.

To start, I have generally had an awful time with divorce lawyers. Carolyn was my fourth hire…read more Never once did I find a lawyer that had the bedside manner, the legal smarts, the organization (including regular billing cycles and consistent/timely communication), the will to fight for you and have your back -- basic things that one wants/needs in a lawyer and Carolyn was no exception. Why lawyers think it is okay to ignore clients and let calls and emails go unanswered just floors me. When I brought up the issue, Carolyn said that my mistake was in not copying Melissa, her assistant. But the issue still persisted even when I copied her. Surprisingly, what Carolyn confessed was that she wants to work with clients where the children will feel the direct impact of her service in a positive way. She wants to be in the courtroom. This is admirable, but everything else, (and most of family law is the infuriating back and forth negotiating and mind numbing calculation and modifications) she puts off as a low priority. When I asked her to explain legal terms to me, either she did not want to or she did not know how to. She made me feel like I was stupid and stubborn and foolish for not taking her advice. She did not refute false information that my ex submitted in legal documents. She overcharged me. Had I not kept meticulous records of my calls and emails with her, I would have missed her overcharging me by $8000. Bananas! Ultimately, she did not have my back. Does Carolyn know the law and understand the family court and differing styles of the judges? I guess so. But that's it. She is cold. She is impatient. She may lack feeling at this stage of her career. I truly regret hiring her.
