My first lawyer left private practice, and my second lawyer was impossible to work with and I had to fire her for incompetence. So I was nervous. It's true: DeAnn is no-nonsense, fast talking and direct. Some people on Yelp fault her for that. I think those are assets and strengths. If she was too fast for me, or I didn't understand, I asked her to explain it to me. And she did. Everytime. She was my champion. She educated me. She explained my options. She pushed me to stand up for myself and not let my ex boss me around. She was ALWAYS responsive within 1 business day. She made time for my zoom calls. She sent me articles with highlighted/annotated notes to explain case law and precedent. She spent time filling in the gaps that my 2nd lawyer should have explained. DeAnn was my savior in this divorce process! Additionally, she brought up points my first lawyers overlooked, which helped me claim about $100K more of community property that I otherwise wouldn't have known about, and would have left with my ex. She saw me through to the end and has still been helpful afterwards. I highly recommend her! Thanks DeAnn!!

Nory went above and beyond to explain everything to me in terms that I could easily understand. She was always and continues to be very responsive to questions and explaining the process. During a week-long Trial to establish that I was the parent, Nory was highly prepared, and the Judge and the responding party knew that Nory meant business. We successfully won the case due to Nory's amazing knowledge, hard work, and attentiveness to details. Nory is a very trustworthy individual. She was always up-front with the standings of the case and the different possibilities that could occur; there were no false promises. I had always previously been wary of lawyers due to unrealistic or unattainable outcomes. However, Nory has by far exceeded my expectations and made the process as easy as it could be despite the complications of the case. Nory is a very hardworking, passionate, and knowledgeable lawyer, and I highly recommend her. She is a one of a kind individual.

I HIGHLY recommend Rudolfo Herrera! He goes above and beyond your average family lawyer. Here is…read moreour experience working together; Mr. Herrera was my second divorce lawyer after spending thousands of dollars with another lawyer. The problem with divorce is that a lot of lawyers take advantage of you and then they take all of your money! He was referred to me by a lawyer at the other firm and within very little time he was able to close my divorce and he was able to save me lots of money. He has also done some small favors for me along the way which is truly astounding since no one in this industry will do this. In conclusion, I have and continue to refer Rudolfo to both my clients, friends and family! Give him a call, after one phone call you will see what I mean. Thank you, Michael Petrovich, San Diego

Thanks to Kathy and her team at Minella Law Group, I came through it feeling triumphant and at peace. They successfully presented my case and achieved an outcome that awarded me the fullest extent of what the law allowed under my circumstances. Yes, divorce can be expensive, but the financial and emotional peace I gained was worth the investment. One of the biggest lessons I learned is that the attorney you choose matters, and I am incredibly grateful I chose Minella Law Group. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone going through a difficult divorce.

I chose this law group because of the reviews on yelp but it ended up being the worst decision I've…read moreever made in my life. I expected transparency, communication, and professionalism, and unfortunately I did not receive any of those things. This was one of the most vulnerable and stressful times in my life and I felt taken advantage of rather than supported. I was left financially drained with no outcome, and ultimately had to drop them before my case even made it to court because they did not advocate for me AT ALL. There were also other MAJOR issues with this law group that I am not comfortable sharing publicly due to the personal nature of the case but I'm sharing this in hopes of preventing someone else from going through the same experience.

Gisela Acevedo is, without exaggeration, one of the best family law attorneys you could have in…read moreyour corner. After working with other attorneys in the past, I can confidently say the difference was night and day. From the very beginning, Gisela and her team operated with a level of professionalism, urgency, and precision that immediately put me at ease. My case required a quick turnaround, and they moved quickly but never carelessly. Every detail was handled thoughtfully and with intention. What truly sets Gisela apart is how deeply she listens and how strategically she approaches each case. She didn't just hear me she understood me. She consistently kept my child's best interests and my own at the center of every decision, while also helping establish strong, healthy boundaries that will serve us long-term. She provided clear options, honest guidance, and practical strategies that made me feel informed, prepared, and confident every step of the way. I never felt dismissed, rushed, or confused, I felt supported and genuinely represented. Family law matters are incredibly personal and stressful, but having Gisela in my corner gave me real peace of mind during an important chapter of my life. She is worth every single penny and absolutely delivers when it matters most. If you want an attorney who is sharp, responsive, strategic, and truly invested in her clients, I cannot recommend Gisela and her team enough.
