Best lawyer on the west coast! If you need to feel safe, heard, protected, or informed on anything…read more Call. Just do it. It's worth it. They also work with you. Just trust. My daughter and I are safe now. Thank you again Tim.

I do not typically leave negative reviews, but based on my experience I cannot recommend this firm…read more After an initial consultation and payment of a very large flat fee, communication significantly declined. My case was primarily handled by another attorney (Jessica Hernandez) after intake/consultation/interview with (David Maletta). I experienced repeated delays and unreturned calls and emails. There were also many instances where the legal strategy discussed and agreed upon during meetings and documented in follow up emails were simply not followed. I raised these concerns several times with firm leadership in writing and during calls. While I was repeatedly told the issues would be addressed, I did not see changes in communication, responsiveness, or case handling. The overall experience became extremely stressful ans frustrating, especially considering the amount of money paid versus the level of attention and follow-through I expected. They then asked for more money. Ultimately, I made the decision to hire different counsel. After changing firms, my matter was resolved within a few months, for less money and in a way that aligned exactly with the strategy I believed should have been pursued from the beginning. Every legal matter is different, but based on my personal experience, I would strongly encourage potential clients to carefully evaluate fee structures, communication expectations, and who will actually be handling their case day-to-day before retaining this firm. I would never recommend this firm to anyone for any issue large or small. An attorney I would highly recommend is Chris Doran, Esq. (he/him) Doran Justice, PLLC 3550 N.

I had an unfortunate experience with a previous divorce lawyer and found myself looking for a new…read moreone to help take on my case, which was over a year old, pushing two, at that point. From the first consultation with Stuart and his team, I felt at ease and they helped me with the mess that my previous lawyer had left in my lap. I had some special circumstances regarding my divorce, but Stuart stepped up and made everything very easy to handle. He and his team were very communicative, worked hard to get my case settled, and ultimately were great sources of peace during a rough period of my life. Despite having moved out of state after I separated, Stuart made sure everything was taken care of and that I was made aware of court dates well ahead of time, also ensuring they'd be online so I wouldn't need to fly back. I highly recommend this team, as they made an already stressful situation that much easier to handle thanks to their professionalism.

I expected representation. What I received was proximity without protection…read more I hired Stuart Peterson during a vulnerable stage of a family court case, expecting guidance, advocacy, and clear direction. Instead, I found myself navigating critical safety concerns largely on my own. When I asked for assistance with filing an Order of Protection, I was told that "wasn't what I hired him for." That moment revealed something I did not expect to discover in a lawyer: an unwavering belief in the limits of his role, even when a child's safety was central to the case. Throughout my engagement, important evidence I provided was not presented, court preparation was minimal, and communication about procedures was unclear. I repeatedly found myself unsure of what had been filed, what had been argued, or what to expect in hearings that determined my child's day-to-day reality. What made this even more disorienting was the tone of some of the commentary I received. Rather than focusing on legal strategy or documented concerns, discussions veered into personal territory -- including remarks about hormones and "rabbit holes" -- which felt dismissive during an already stressful time. Financially, I was billed for work that did not translate into courtroom action, clarity, or preparation. The imbalance between cost and tangible representation left me asking a question no parent should have to ask while paying for counsel: "Am I actually being represented?" I'm sharing this so other parents understand what I wish I had known: a lawyer can be physically present and yet functionally absent. Family court is not theoretical. It involves children, safety, and irreversible outcomes. Clients deserve a legal advocate who sees the gravity of that -- not someone who treats concerns as detours. I cannot recommend this firm based on my experience.
