Customer's reviews

I am so grateful for the Lopez Law Firm PLLC. They were God sent after I had to find a new representation in the middle of my child support case. Mr. Lopez from the first call was kind, he allowed me to explain my situation and just had a calm to him which was not the previous experience I had with interviewing another lawyer. As a single mother who never dealt with the court system before Mr. Lopez always made be feel seen, valued, took time to explain the law verbiage to me and just made me feel safe. I trusted him with anything he recommended and really felt and saw him work form me. Thank you so much to the Lopez Law Firm PLLC team. I will definitely be recommending your services to my family, friends and community. I highly recommend his services!!! ~ Roselane D
I previously had a very difficult custody case and an unfair ruling by a biased judge. The previous judge disregarded that I had a history with 2 protective orders. I also live in another state which made it more difficult. Attorney Lopez advocated for me like no other. The other party was difficult and was able to drag out our case for a year and a half. Attorney Lopez keyed in on what mattered and debunked the other parties lies. He got the other party to lie about a lie! His delivery and approach in my case was savvy and direct. Needless to say, I was able to regain primary custody of my children and also gain parameters that will assist in the future. I highly recommend Attorney Lopez. He got my case on the right track and demonstrated an organized and aggressive stance on my behalf. ~ Kharel B
Lopez Law Firm exceeded my expectations in every way. During one of the most challenging times in my life, Attorney Lopez guided me through my divorce with compassion, professionalism, and a high level of responsiveness. While I had heard countless stories about attorneys being difficult to reach, my experience was the complete opposite—no matter how busy Attorney Lopez was, he always made time to answer my questions, explain my options, and provide clear, honest legal advice. His consistent communication and support made a tremendous difference during an incredibly stressful and emotional process. If you are seeking exceptional, trusted family law representation, especially in high-conflict cases, this firm is outstanding and worth every penny. ~ Giselle M
