Borton Petrini, LLP

I normally don’t write reviews, but I feel it’s important to share my experience. I came to this firm hoping for guidance and genuine help with my custody case, but I walked away feeling more like a number than a client. There were key things that could’ve been brought up in court — things both the Minor’s Counsel and Co-Parenting Therapy mentioned — that were never discussed or presented by my attorney even after reading the papers and the reason why we went back to court. Throughout my case, communication was poor. Several of my emails went unanswered, and when I asked about it, I was told it was to “save me money and to trust them.” Yet, I was still billed large amounts for things that felt unnecessary — including simple custody orders that were basically a copy and paste. At one point, I was even handed another client’s paperwork on my court day, which made me feel uncomfortable and uneasy. To make things worse, the judge ordered certain forms to be completed back in October, and I later found out from Minor’s Counsel that those forms were never filled out by my attorney. After spending close to $20,000 (and I’m still paying it off), I honestly feel like the system — and especially this firm — cares more about billing hours than truly helping families. For a father doing everything possible to be there for his kids, this was an incredibly disappointing experience. I wish my money and effort could’ve gone toward my children, not wasted on legal work that didn’t move my case forward. I could’ve saved an extra 5000 and just requested Minors Council instead of hiring an attorney. After three years of fighting for my daughter, I finally just gave up on attorneys and I am now trying to trust and hope that things work out.

Claudia and Staci are the best! They helped me with my case and things turned out in my favor. They had a wonderful communication and are very kind. Hard-working and persistence is what you want and it is what they are! I could not be more grateful. I highly recommend this business!

I wanna thank Tirzah Umana for going above and beyond To help us with our Consultation

After calling one month ago, DM'ing their Instagram one month ago, and emailing the firm this week, I have yet to hear back. The lack of communication is appalling.

After 2 years of battling for a divorce, I finally agreed to a settlement based on erroneous information I received from my lawyer Tamie Cummins. I lost thousands due to her mistake. And there are no attorneys that will take malpractice suits against other attorneys. Attention to detail is lacking. I gave 2 stars because I think the divorce process in CA is broken—which isn’t her fault.

A complete disappoint in an easy divorce matter. Poor communication. Do you research don't waste your time or money.

THIS LAW FIRM IS THE BEST IN THE VALLEY...

I felt as though my attorney and the staff cared and worked hard to get me the results I needed for my case.

Staff is very kind and welcome, the place is very nice and clean , immediately I fell like I am in good hands with professional staff . I came here asking recommendations, and my experience for now was really good. The fee for 30 min consultation was $ 150, it worth every penny.

I lost my Hawaii home to a landslide caused by a broken city Sewage pipe. I sued the city and loss the case. Loss everything, moved to California and filed bankruptcy. I found Borton Petrini, LLP and they saved my life. Literally. There were various possibilities for my outcome and these people with their diligent work got me the very best possible outcome. After all the incompetent people I dealt with during my situation in Hawaii. These people at Borton Petrini, LLP restored my faith in humanity. Oh and Monique Pulido deserves a raise. She is amazing.

So thankful for Jessica Dorn and her paralegal, Karen Curtis. I am so appreciative of all their work. They are very professional and kind. I was very nervous to have to get an attorney, but they made the process very easy and welcoming. I will always recommend Jessica Dorn! Thank you all so much!

Great firm!! Monique Pullido was our paralegal and saw us all the way through. She made sure we had everything organized from start to finish. We did not have to clear anything once the 7 years was up either. We recommend them to family and friends. Thank you again for all your support and help!!!!
