I cannot recommend Danielle strongly enough. If you are looking for an attorney who listens to you,…read morefights for you, and has a favorable reputation with the courts, then you should certainly trust her with your case. Her communication is timely, efficient, and effective. Danielle is more than fair in her billing practices and she knows when and how to push in the courtroom. The Judge in my case had nothing but complimentary sentiments toward her and it is evident that her competence has impressed many. I do not give my highest recommendation lightly, especially in such a contentious arena as the legal system. Also, I was not incentivized in any way for writing this review. Do yourself a favor and invest in your future by hiring Danielle Linker for your case.

We had already had a 3111 court ordered evaluation with recommendation not in the best interest of our son.

If you have a chance to meet with Danielle, you too will feel and know her confidence!

I retained Rebecca in 2022 for a DVRO that my ex husband had tried to file on me Rebecca subpoenaed…read morethe Norco sheriff and used all my evidence that my ex husband's false R/O was a complete lie! I walked out of court with full custody and my ex was on supervised visits and he got a R/O against him!! That was a huge win because I was terrified!! Then that's when my ex husband's games really started! My ex then said I was crazy and on drugs and had me do a 730 evaluation and even tho he failed the evaluation? The dirty doctor gave him 50/50 custody? Then my poor son was living a nightmare!! My ex didn't stop with his lies and false accusations and poor Rebecca stayed by my side through all of this it was a nightmare for both of us! Repeated false CPS reports that just turned around and bit my ex in the butt! Evidence for miles and go to court? You have one judge that listens to everything? And a judge who can careless? My ex tested dirty not once but twice with CPS and came back inconclusive every single time? And the judges did absolutely nothing? He broke in my house we filed a R/O once again? And the judge just threw it out! Oh believe me it was like going through hell I was stressed out ! I have been accused of everything bad under the sun!! It's also exhausting and scary! His family also barged in my house and attacked me? Rebecca fought very hard for me from start to finish over 3.5 yrs where she was completely over my case but she didn't give up.. At the end of the day I walked away from everything but got full sole legal custody of my son and moved 2200 miles away. To me that was the biggest win. I am finally free and so is my son I knew it was all about money and the house and Rebecca made it happen. The court system is terrible and I don't wish that on my worst enemy!! My ex had money and used the court system as a further way of abuse and Rebecca saved my A$$ ! If it was not for Rebecca I would have lost everything!! It was the divorce from hell!! Instead of moving on like adults do? He wanted to see me suffer and used the court system to do it. And now he got fired rite before his second child support payment.. But that's KARMA maybe if he focused on himself instead of focusing on trying to ruin me things would be different.. I am going to miss Rebecca and Lisa but I'm glad this is finally done.

We cannot thank Rebecca enough for the incredible work she did on my husband's custody and child…read moresupport case. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond our expectations and handled a very difficult situation with professionalism, strategy, and determination. The other party was hiding multiple sources of income and failing to disclose important financial information. Rebecca worked tirelessly to uncover the truth and clearly present the evidence to the court. Thanks to her thorough preparation and strong advocacy, the court was able to see through the misinformation. As a result, our child support payments were adjusted well beyond what we had hoped for. Rebecca truly fights for what is fair and right for her clients. We also want to recognize her amazing team from Lisa to Jason, who helped Rebecca execute everything seamlessly. Their communication, organization, and support throughout the process made a stressful situation much more manageable. If you are looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, dedicated, and will stand up for you, I highly recommend Rebecca and her team. Thank you again for your hard work and support, we are incredibly grateful.

What stood out the most was how much she genuinely cared--not just about the case, but about doing what was right for our daughters. It never felt like it was about money; it always felt like it was about family, fairness, and protecting what mattered most. Christina's professionalism, compassion, and dedication made a very difficult process so much easier to navigate. If you're looking for an attorney who truly puts your family's best interests first, I highly recommend Christina Godbey. She exceeded every expectation and I will always be grateful for her guidance and support.

I know results vary from case to case, however I was very pleased with the end result which resulted in my full legal and full physical custody of my 1 year old son.

We reached out to her by email and she responded to us expeditiously with a lot of great information we were able to work with right away. After hearing about our situation, she provided us sensible counsel with regards to our legal options and the family law procedures we should take. Laurel is very honest, trust-worthy, empathetic and knowledgeable in her field. We were extremely lucky to have found her and grateful that she represented us. Two days after we retained Laurel and her law office, we were able to get the proper, signed consent forms from the dissenting party.

Our family went through an unimaginable nightmare that I wouldn't wish on anyone. My sister's…read moreex-boyfriend came home one night drunk and violently attacked her and our entire family. He was arrested, but days later he posted bail and was set free. We believed we had an airtight case: over 20 photos showing the injuries, a video of him admitting guilt, and statements from the children confirming the abuse. We thought the truth would prevail without the need for an attorney. We were wrong. Just three days before our family court hearing, he maliciously filed a false CPS report claiming my sister abused the children. CPS showed up without a professional sign language interpreter, despite my sister's deafness, and I had to step in to interpret. The children clearly told CPS they felt unsafe with their father and confirmed the abuse. Even though CPS wrote this in their report, in court his attorney twisted the facts, claimed I manipulated the conversation, and had the report thrown out on a technicality. Within five minutes, the judge shockingly awarded full custody to the abuser, who still had pending felony charges. In the following weeks, CPS reopened the case and we watched helplessly as the children were interrogated under their father's influence. It was the most unjust and painful experience of our lives. That's when we hired Christopher Hernandez in Riverside, thinking legal representation would save us. Unfortunately, Christopher failed us at every turn. We paid nearly $15,000 for constant frustration. He rarely answered calls, forcing me to call multiple times a day just to get any response. He juggled too many cases at once and admitted to it. Worst of all, when it came to court, he repeatedly forgot the facts of our case--facts I had thoroughly gone over with him many times. Every time we appeared before a judge, the opposing attorney ran circles around him, leaving us devastated and without real representation. It was clear he never truly cared about our family or the outcome. In what felt like our final attempt to save the children, we contacted the office at Laurel Buchanan. From the moment we spoke, Laurel's intelligence, professionalism, and genuine care were evident. She listened carefully as I explained the entire case and, within minutes, repeated back every critical detail with precision. Unlike the first attorney, she immediately identified where the court and CPS had failed and laid out a real legal strategy. Laurel showed us laws and protocols the previous attorney never even mentioned. She made it clear we had a legal path to reverse this injustice. Laurel and Wendy fought for us like no one else. Her knowledge of family law was unmatched, and she approached the case with both sharp legal skill and sincere compassion. She battled a dishonest opposing attorney and a flawed system with tireless dedication. Thanks to her and Wendy, we won. The custody order was reversed, and the children were returned to my sister. It was such an emotional victory that my sister cried--and Laurel, who had poured her heart into our case, shed tears with us. Laurel Buchanan didn't treat us like just another file; she treated us like family and fought for us as if it were her own loved ones in danger. She changed our lives. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone who needs an advocate against a broken system or a manipulative opposing party. She is brilliant, fierce, and compassionate--the very definition of what an attorney should be. Thank you Laurel, here I am a year later writing this review and I am still left for words for everything you did for us. When we thought it was almost over for us, you came to save and change our life's forever. We are forever thankful with you and Wendy, and the team. Thank you.

I had another attorney prior to Bratton and Razo. I felt he was a great guy, but Bill Bratton and…read moreMike Razo were vigilant getting an agreement for me and were successful not long after I hired them. I like the way Bill understood the emotional aspect of a very difficult divorce (12 years) and taking my feelings into consideration but talking me off the cliff and getting me back to the issue which was a divorce agreement. I would highly recommend Bratton and Razo. During the process I watched several other attorneys in the court room. I felt Bill and Mike had more integrity and definitely more authenticity. The only thing I would change if I had to do it over again is I would hire Bratton and Razo the day after I separated.

She is a young mother who had just had her child taken away, so this was already an incredibly stressful and emotional time for us. We paid $200 for a one-hour consultation, while most other family law offices we contacted offered free consultations. Unfortunately, that hour was not used wisely. He started off talking about food and other random topics during time we were literally paying for. When we finally got into the details of her case -- including serious allegations of abuse -- instead of listening and offering guidance, he spent the majority of the consultation attacking her. He repeatedly told her that everything she did was wrong and made it feel like he was siding with the opposing party during her own consultation. At one point, he even told her to "grow up." You do not tell a young mother in distress to grow up when her child has just been taken away. It was insensitive, arrogant, and completely lacking empathy. He made the situation sound hopeless, saying it could be an uphill battle that might take up to two years. We left feeling defeated and discouraged. Thankfully, we chose to retain another attorney who offered a free consultation, charged about half the retainer, treated her with compassion, and stood by her side from day one. That attorney won our case at the first full hearing. Everything Bratton implied would be a major issue never even came up. This review reflects our experience during the consultation only. We did not move forward with his services, and we are grateful we didn't. If you are looking for a family law attorney who listens, shows empathy, and truly advocates for you during one of the hardest moments of your life, this was not our experience here.
