Leanne, and her team helped me finalize my divorce. They were very responsive, courteous and…read moreprofessional. I trusted them fully to fill in the documents, and file on behalf of us. The whole procedure was easy, and much more affordable than hiring a lawyer, which we had to do in the beginning. I cannot thank her enough for saving us with time and money. I also reached her later afterwards for advice regarding property division. She helped me even though our earlier business finalized. I recommend her team strongly.

She is very kind and professional and honest. A lot of help for me. Highly recommendedread more

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.

My divorce was not simple and it was not easy. Morris helped me get through the process both…read moreprofessionally and emotionally. When I was ready to actually file, Morris had the paperwork prepared, signed and filed with the court the next day. He kept good track of dates when replies were due and thankfully kept the process as low key as possible. Morris helped me not only keep custody of my son, but was able to prove my ex was not reporting his full income to the courts. In the end I am receiving the proper amount child support and have full custody of my son. I couldn't have gotten through this process without the help of this man. He is very professional, polite, caring and above all honest. After the divorce was final, I needed to move out of state. Morris helped me file the proper custody paperwork with the court and negotiated terms with my ex. It wasn't easy but Morris made it easier.

The intake was quick and easy, then billing was straight forward. Payment can be made online. His professionalism and knowledge of the law was impeccable. Santa Clara court system cannot deny his tenacity and friendliness, they speak in very high regards.

Mr. Rios played a big roll in defending me and he speaks Spanish. Communication was easy by phone, in person , email , text . Before you speak to another criminal lawyers, I highly recommend talking to him immediately. Remember don't speak to law enforcement before speaking to a lawyer (YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT , DON'T LET LAW ENFORCEMENT TRICK YOU PLUS DON'T LET THEM IN YOUR HOUSE WITHOUT A SEARCH WARRANT , GO OUTSIDE LOCK YOUR DOOR & STAY SILENT AND STATE "I LIKE TO SPEAK TO A LAWYER BEFORE ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS" ) This can be a key from damaging your case.

#Trauma #Broke More…read moretraumatic than the divorce itself. Promised a swift reasonable cost at beginning. Then changed lawyers with much higher hourly rate. Nickel and dimes you for all small administrative happenings at the max lawyer hourly rate instead of utilizing support staff at a more fair hourly rate. Seemingly rounds up on time spent on simple email communications among everything else. Therefore sum of said charges was extremely expensive, contrary to promise of being quick and reasonable. My first lawyer said, "Due to the simple nature of the divorce, I may even get some of my initial retainer payment back. Took incredibly long time to dissolve marriage. Quietly discontinued counsel once marriage dissolved, instead of ensuring all financial equalization goes smoothly and all is finalized. Straight ignored any attempted correspondence after dissolution of marriage, related to delayed spousal support and equalization of finances. Im currently handling the still unresolved (3 years!) equalization of finances myself with my Ex spouses legal counsel who did not bounce as her attorney, before all concluded. Extremely pompous and arrogant. Unable to summarize and help me through the hurdles of disclosures, the MSA etc the entire way through. One of the worst experiences of my entire life, and by far the most expensive. Hire a mediation attorney and save your hard earned dough and your peace of mind.

This is kind of an emotional review, but I do need to do this review because of this wonderful…read moreyoung attorney; Jess Smith at the law office of Hoover-Krepelka, LLP. I had a 45 year marriage that was coming to an end. I was a mess. My first attorney was so terrible that she was late 20 minutes to a court hearing and was completely unprepared to present me. She did not apologize to the judge or me for the delay. Needless to say, I let her go. My next attorney I hired; the office had a staff exodus en-mass. My 3rd attorney issue was straightened out and hired Jess Smith at H & K. I was hesitant because she was such a young attorney; the same age as my daughter. This young woman saved me in so many ways. I will never be able to thank her enough for her emotional support and listening to some of my requests. I'm sure they were not normal but what is in this situation. She was on top of every document, request, response which were vast in numbers. Because California is a no fault state for divorces I feel it can be very lopsided if one has not pursued a traditional career. I had taken care of financials, home and child raising. As a woman who gave up her career as a graphic artist. I raised our daughter to become a wonderful doctor. I wore about 50 other hats to help my husband, daughter, household to succeed. Unfortunately they don't issue college degrees or adjust pay for this service. Jess Smith helped me navigate the legal labyrinth with some of the best representation that a woman in my situation could have. I really do think she performed miracles. She provided encouragement & the strength to fight for everything that I am entitled to, and perhaps more since I was 65 years old and had been with this man since I was 21 years old. Conveniently he was laid off so he did not have to provide spousal support. Jess as a young attorney; I think had a lot to do with what she helped me to achieve since she was so fresh and had set no boundaries yet. I think this career choice can be a very difficult and I hope this young attorney realizes just how much she'll helps people like me. Jess Smith went toe to toe with the opposing seasoned attorney and actually showed much more skill at times. There were many times where she had to remind the opposing attorney about deadlines and responses times. I will be forever grateful to this young lady who is so brilliantly smart and helped me by representing my best interest and got me so much more than I would have ever hoped for. Keep in mind that I thought cat food was going to be on the menu in my retirement & I do not own a cat. Not only is she a fine & talented attorney, but also a terrific human being that cares about her clients. I hope I come even close to describing how much this attorney helped me. I will always remember her and be forever grateful & and wish her the very best.
