My ex-husband is the…read morecontrolling tech-backed money type; calling me at 9:30pm to strike a deal without lawyers kinda guy. When interviewing, I asked if they had experience supporting people with trauma and they said that it was "Trisha's specialty." This divorce wasn't the only thing going on in my life, I was managing the sudden death of a family member and a health scare at the time. The staff was receptive and courteous in the beginning but after a couple months there was a misstep by their office about filing paperwork. It felt like they had more clients than they could handle. It set off some miscommunication in email and that was the sudden end of it. The conversation was handed over to Jennifer and she was quickly defensive and dismissive. Her emails were harsh. She notified my ex's lawyer that she wasn't going to be representing me anymore and I started fielding his calls again. I'm sure trauma and abuse come up in a lot of cases for them. It's a tough line of work. I just don't think it really clicked for them how much I was going through at the time. I had very limited interactions with Jennifer up until the termination and the treatment I got was not trauma informed. If you have a lot going on like I did, I wouldn't go with this office. It's not a compassionate place.

The level of appreciation I have for Jenn McCabe and her team of associates is hard to put into…read morewords. The court system could really be described as a foreign land. One that is unfamiliar and structured in such a way that it's almost impossible to navigate on your own. So if you find yourself having to enter into this system with a deeply emotional or traumatic situation on hand the pressure to have a wider perspective on how that system works is essential! That's where Jenn McCabe came in and completely changed the trajectory of my case the moment she took it on. She goes above and beyond to do whatever she needs to do to give you the best fighting chance in court. Before I had Jenn I had so much anxiety entering the court room. After having her as my advocate she represented me in court better then I could have ever done and I finally got the justice I deserved. This brought down my anxiety and kept me safe knowing someone else I could trust was representing me and presenting my case the best way possible. I've had an ongoing custody battle for over 2 years now and after hiring Jenn and her team I was able to attain full custody of my son and child support. Bottom line if you're looking for a highly competent, experienced and hardworking lawyer you can be assured that Jenn will meet all your expectations and more. I am beyond grateful for her guidance and level of professionalism. She's the real deal and very pleasant to work with, down to earth and passionate in what she does. All my gratitude to Jenn and her team again I couldn't have done it without them!

Update: I received…read moreMarizen's private message and her request to edit or remove my review--this request was notably left off her public comment as noted in the screenshot attached. Since the 2 stars (which equates to the "[service] could've been better") were due to the unprofessionalism and inattentiveness shown (not due to her being an LDA), I have no reason to change my rating or delete my review. TL;DR: Marizen is NOT a lawyer. She is a Legal Document Assistant that cannot provide you with legal advice. She is a significantly affordable option for a Living Trust but she is unprofessional and has poor attention to detail-- key characteristics that are paramount to detailing an important document. Details: I left a Living Trust inquiry via her site and Marizen emailed me back within 1 day to "text" her back for a scheduled over-the-phone consult. Upon speaking with Marizen it was clear she did not take the time to review the few questions I had sent her in my initial inquiry as she was confused as to what the consult would primarily be regarding. Her rates were significantly less than what other competing services were offering which raised an orange flag for me. Upon further research, I realized Marizen was NOT a lawyer, but rather a "Legal Document Assistant (LDA)." According to the CA Attorney General, LDAs cannot give legal advice. This was my first encounter with an LDA, which allowed me the opportunity to do the necessary research to make a more educated investment. Had Marizen gotten back to me with the necessary next steps and questionnaire as she had promised (it's been over 1.5 weeks), I may have considered her as a possible option to complete my Living Trust needs. But if you are looking for a more affordable option, perhaps Marizen is a good fit for you.

Greg spoke with the D.A. and got them not to bring it up. so I was pulled over for my tire passing the passing the pedestrian walk way. I was at my friends house earlier that day and probably had about half a bottle of wine. but I walked around walmart and just filled my carts (2) with items and made them get me a T.V . when I got up to pay, my husband text me its 12:00am on a Sunday and your still not home. Plus I knew I didn't need the items and T.V. so when they ringing up my two carts full of items and a 70 inch T.V. I told them abruptly I had to go. I don't want anything. I do believe walmart called the police because the first thing the cops said was wear are you coming from and did you still anything? I said no. than they asked if i had been drinking today. I said yes. they did a breathalyzer and at first it was a .10 two minutes later it was .08. The officer insisted. I am a female and the males searched me and even took my breast enhancements out. They searched my car and I Xanax, kolonopin, clonidine suboxone and Zoloft. The cops insisted I get a blood test. but they knew that would be higher. it was almost double the legal limit..14. He got me out of almost all the fines and all i ha to do was a 12 hour class. He is going to expunge it off my record after the 6 week. I would recommend Greg Carter to all my family and friends. if you are in trouble call Greg Carter. He does more than criminal, family law and dui. If you want the best of the best here he is!
