    Over the past three years, I worked with Gina and Dean, and I want to sincerely thank them for all…read moretheir help with my case. Before finding Gina, I did my own research and contacted several lawyers. Two of them told me I didn't have a case, and I felt they didn't truly take the time to listen or understand what was going on. I eventually found Gina's law firm on Yelp, where she had great reviews, and decided to give her a call. From the very beginning, Gina was personable, attentive, and truly listened to my situation. She set up a follow up appointment so we could go over everything in detail, and after reviewing my case, she assured me that I had a strong case. Throughout the three years I worked with Gina and Dean, I never had any issues. They consistently followed up with me, guided me in the right direction, and provided great advice every step of the way. I highly recommend giving Gina the opportunity to help you if you're looking for a lawyer.

    I am truly blown away by Attorney Gina Szeto-Wong's professionalism, dedication, and passion. From…read morethe very beginning, she has gone above and beyond in handling my case. She took the time to thoroughly explain the possible outcomes, walked me through each step, and offered thoughtful, strategic advice on what would be in my best interest. After speaking with more than ten different law firms, Gina stood out--not only for her legal expertise but also for her genuine care. This is the only firm where I truly felt that the client's well-being came first. Gina made me feel heard, respected, and supported every step of the way. I wholeheartedly recommend Gina to anyone in need of legal representation. I trust her professionalism, knowledge, and sincere commitment to her clients.

    I'm incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I received from this Angelo J. Lagorio during…read morea very difficult time in my life. When I first reached out, I was in a fragile state navigating a divorce involving domestic violence. Even though he wasn't able to take my case, he generously offered a free consultation where he not only helped validate my overall approach, but also showed genuine compassion and understanding. What stood out was his willingness to go a step further--he helped me sanity-check the lawyer I was planning to hire, which gave me much-needed confidence in my next steps. Six months later, when I found myself struggling with a lack of responsiveness from my attorney and growing concerned about delays, I reached out again to see possible options and if switching lawyer would be necessary. Once again, he was incredibly generous with his time. He didn't just listen--he provided clear, practical strategies that helped me re-engage my lawyer effectively. As a result, my case moved forward and was ultimately resolved within two months. One time, I was so stuck, Angelo called me immediately when he saw my message without any charges. I also really appreciated how thoughtful and efficient he was in preparing for the consultations. The information he requested ahead of time ensured that our conversations were focused and made the best possible use of investment made. His professionalism, empathy, and willingness to help--even without taking on the case--truly set him apart. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate family law attorney.

    Great quality and timely and efficient! I'd recommend him for others interested in his services!read more

She always remained transparent about the difficult divorce process, detailed what options I had, and always maintained professionalism. I worked with them in 2019-2020 during my initial filing and required their support again this past year for follow-up issues. I cannot fully express how grateful I am to have had their support during those most trying times, but thank you.

This form notifies the court that your new attorney is now representing you, often replacing self-representation (in pro per) or a prior attorney. There is no court filing fee required for submitting the Substitution of Attorney form. This is a standard statewide rule for superior courts handling family law matters like divorce. https://selfhelp.courts.ca.gov/substitution-attorney 2) We met for 5m just to sign 1 paper that he is now representing me. 500 usd for 5 min. 3) Next time we met was only to hand him a check and let him know that he is no longer needed. Handling of check was charged another 500 usd as considered as a meeting with the client (obviously). While he may partially technically be right in terms of meetings only, think again if you like to have this kind of ethics follow you during your case and weather something like this should cost 1,500 USD.

    This is my first review on online in my life. If you read this review, you have the most…read moremiserable/endurable time. You feel like you lost your way. I am sorry. Before Kathleen, I had hired 17 years' experience (native English) lawyer, and the divorce process and life had been getting messed up. I was not sure if I had extreme stress because of divorce, lawyer, ex-spouse or me. I lost my control after 6-7 months later and decided to change the lawyer to Kathleen Dong who my friend of friends (they are lawyers too in the different subject) recommended. After that, I was able to breath and focus on my job and life. I let Kathleen led me to close the case. Kathleen stopped me what I wanted(desired) based on the current law. however, she was very flexible to decide to get the deal, effectively leverage timing, gave me advice in impacted short words and considered what I needed for my life after the divorce while she processed my divorce cases. She had not hesitated to respond to protect me and prevent any indirect insult from my spouse's lawyer. I felt comfortable to trust her. I am not sure that Kathleen is a good lawyer or right lawyer to others, but she is good to me. And, it is a true that Kathleen and her team help/support me to close the divorce within 3months after she accepted my case. Thanks again.

From start to finish, Kathleen provided expert legal guidance, but also genuine care and empathy. She took the time to listen, ensured I felt heard, and treated me as a person, not just a client. Even when the process felt overwhelming, her steady support gave me the courage to persevere through the toughest moments. Her legal expertise, combined with her thoughtful guidance, made a difficult process more manageable. Thanks to her dedication, we were finally able to resolve the case. If you're facing a challenging legal journey, I highly recommend the Law Office of Kathleen K. Dong--they don't just represent you, they truly stand beside you with compassion and professionalism.

Once the agreement was drafted, there was a California specific addendum needed on the documents for us to get them notarized. The team quickly added it and corrected the document within the hour. I was able to get a comprehensive prenuptial agreement not only drafted and reviewed, but finalized and notarized within a reasonable amount of time. The attorneys, law clerks, and administrative managers were so kind every step of the way. Thank you all!

    I'm not sure how they are getting 5 star ratings, but it definitely fooled me when I hired them…read moreback in May of last year. Let me be clear, the negative reviews seem much more realistic as I experienced identical stuff with them. Long story short, they did nothing for me after I took them as representation and made payment. When I mean nothing, I mean literally anything outside of filing normal paperwork, they simply didn't do. Want a suggestion? Get ready to pay them thousands for a quick meeting. Writing an email to them? Better hope they don't need to go to the bathroom in between because you will pay for that time. Another reviewer states it perfectly : "there team was working on my case, which means everyone needed to be aware of the status, and I was paying each of them". This times a million is so accurate!! Every month I would get a new bill with charges I couldn't make sense of, and half of those charges were one team member discussing with another about my case... like seriously?? In the end, I think I payed close to $15k for the 8 months I had them!! 15k!! And mind you, we never went to court or anything. It was literally just email replies and filing paperwork. I told them from the beginning I was trying to be conservative with funds and wanted to end this asap, and they asked for a $4k retainer acting like that would be all I need. They weren't upfront about future costs or options I could make. How in world did I have to replenish another $11k in addition is beyond me. Straight up scammed by thieves. **edit : one thing I wanted to clarify, their rates look somewhat reasonable, well at least for Palo Alto region standards.. hence why I was suckered. But it's not the rate that's the issue per se, rather, it's how they charge you each month based off these rates (see above note on how they charge discussions between team members). My previous lawyer (worst move ever leaving them for this one) charged me 1/4th of what they did, and we actually went to court. This firm will make you suffer with endless costs and charge you thousands each month when there is NO movement in your case.
