⭐ Disappointing Experience I retained this law office to assist with finalizing my divorce and child support matter. While my case initially progressed smoothly, my experience changed after it was reassigned within the firm. Communication became limited, and I primarily interacted with staff rather than directly with the attorney responsible for my case. I raised concerns that I believed were important to the outcome and requested additional action; however, from my perspective, those issues were not pursued as I expected. At the court hearing, I believed the case was strongly supported by the information and documentation I had provided. However, I felt my case was not presented with the level of preparation I had anticipated, especially considering the fees charged. I was billed approximately $16,500 for about two and a half months of representation, and I expected clearer communication, stronger preparation, and more consistent advocacy. Legal matters like divorce and child support are extremely difficult for families and children involved. During such an important time, I was hoping for more guidance, preparation, and support throughout the process. Choosing the right attorney matters deeply, and I hope my experience helps others make a fully informed decision before moving forward.

Professional, gets the job done. She helped me with my divorce and got me what through everything even when I was feeling hopeless. Happy with the results.

Neda is a terrible attorney who should be disbarred for dishonesty. Personally dealing with her as Pro Per against my ex husband. She is so bad that my husband and I are going to team up (first time ever since the divorce) to give the California Bar Association all of our documents. We have been trying to settle and her office keeps avoiding it in order to rack up more money from my soon to be ex husband. We have emails from both sides asking her to put very specific wording in a stipulation to avoid future confusion and 3 times she has purposely wrote it wrong and continues to bill my ex husband for repeat services to send the same document. It’s seems as though I’m not the only one that says this reading recent reviews from others. Good thing we can come together for a good cause. There are plenty of better more honest, attorneys out there. Even her associate attorney knows she is dishonest. He was the one handling our case and working with us and she sent me an email saying she will be overseeing everything he does. Really lady that seems like trust issue to me. Anyway please avoid if you don’t want to pay and exuberance for terrible representation. Update: Thank you for blanket response. As stated in my review, I was pro per against my husband, that usually indicate opposing party. First, I would like to use that as an example to inform people of your inability to pay attention to detail. No need to re-inform the public of that. Secondly, I would like to inform everyone that there is BAR complaint that was filed and I will be happy to update the review, based on the outcome of that formal complaint.

Before consulting with Neda, I had met with other local attorneys. I chose to be represented by Neda because I felt that she was able to give a fair and honest assessment of my situation. Neda and her team made me feel comforted with compassion during difficult circumstances, and walked me through the process we endured step by step. I found Neda and her team to be competent and professional, and would highly recommend her for your family legal needs.

Unless you have a ton of money to waist go for it. $15k will get you a bunch off emails and a court date representing yourself because you have no more money to give them. Don’t use this firm!

Neda and her entire team were nothing professionals who surpass expectations and epitomize dedication to get the job done. Furthermore, I would recommend them if you have a case you need to win.

Neda is a good divorce attorney, but her staff is a revolving door. Unless you have very deep pockets she will only show up once. She leaves her staff of incompetent employees to cover your case. I employed her office for a little over a year with serious issues and got nowhere. Like I said Neda is a bulldog but her staff leaves a lot to be desired and I couldn’t afford their short comings for her office to finish my case.

Working with this firm was great and ideal for my situation. With the experience and background they have it was meant for me to be at this firm. I was fighting a custody battle in family court which resulted in a 50/50 agreement between me and the opposing party. What you want in a legal firm is to feel as if they care about your case and I can tell you they definitely do. Working with every portion of their firm was ideal and fast from Shane, Mr.Adame, Megan, Edward, and Neda Aguirre. They have knowledge of the court system, what local judges look for, evaluators, and other opposing tactics other firms may use to win in these situations. Please use this firm if you really want a group of people who will have your back during this hard time. They are reviews about the cost of this firm. It is money well spent and they are flexible.

I have been very pleased with Ms. Aguirre and her law office. I had 2 other lawyers for my divorce case prior to Ms. Aguirre and she excelled where they fell short. She and all of her staff are incredibly professional and I feel that they represented me in a way that addressed all of my concerns. They counseled well and managed my expectations in a way that made me feel heard and validated. I truly felt like they cared about my matter and their attention to detail and thoroughness was evidence of that. If you want representation that you can depend on and truly fight for you, then I could not recommend the Law Office of Neda Aguirre more.

Ms. Aguirre is the best family law attorney. From our first meeting she explained things to me in terms I could understand and was always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings. If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable family attorney at a reasonable price call Ms. Aguirre. Highly recommended.

Excellent service

I needed HELP with updating the stipulations so my children were able to move out of state with their mother. I needed to make sure there were reasonable but strict requirements to ensure the children would always be put first and their needs in education and mental health were stipulated. It wasn't easy since California makes everything MUCH more difficult but Neda and her team got me through it. Everything was accepted by court the first time and I feel like, despite the expenses and stress, that my children now stand a much better chance of having their needs met when they are 10 states away from me. Wouldn't have wanted to go through all of this without their help!

I received an outstanding service from Ms. Aguirre and her staff. Very professional in handling legal matters.

I sought Neda's firm for a civil matter and having had some experience with retaining attorneys for Family Law it was such a shock to finally be listened to, heard and understood. Her office staff are impeccably professional and responsive. Neda takes the center stage with confidence, intelligence and appropriate application of the law with careful navigation of the case. Balancing that with kindness, her genuine interest in her clients was such a refreshing change as she made me feel like a person instead of another request for order on her desk. I saw a great deal of humanity in her which I have seen lacking in other attorneys with whom I've worked with in my family law matter. I pray the day won't come but know it will someday when I have to deal with some finishing business on one family law matter we have left and definitely would call Neda again in a heartbeat to request her at the helm again. Highly recommend!

I really liked my experience with Neda and her whole office. She is the attorney you'll work with, but for the most part you'll work with the paralegals. I LOVED her paralegal, Edward. I loved him! He was very knowledgeable, thorough, understanding, had a kind and soothing voice to help with the times when the stress really kicks in, because we all know family law comes with a ton of anxiety and stress. Attorneys are NEVER cheap, but Neda was less per hour than all the others I had meetings with first. I had a lot that came along with my case, while it was still expensive, in the case of my legal fees, I think I came out ok. I also want to talk about how Neda seemed to really care about the kids involved more than the feelings of us parents. Not to say she doesn't care about us, but she makes it clear how bad she feels for the kids involved and how important it is to get what is best for them. That is really important, especially as I look back. While we absolutely want to win our cases, she will also be pretty upfront and almost blunt about what is best for the kids. In the long run, that will be what saves money, because she know what the judges will want and be looking for, so there won't be as much need to be in and out of court. While being matter of fact and blunt may seem like something we don't want in an attorney, it really is good because we typically are so wrapped up in hurt and anger during these types of cases, so we don't always look and the full picture to know what is best for our kids. She has a lot of experience in other areas of Law as well, so that will help if the parent you're going to court with has had past issues with the law.

Too expensive for the services rendered. The only reason why I had to get a lawyer was because my ex is impossible to deal with. My ex dragged the court process and I ended up paying more money due to this. Then instead of being more supportive of my needs and financial struggles, it felt as if my lawyer was more attentive to my ex’s needs and desires. It felt as if predisposed ideas were made and I should have received a more impartial hearing. I worked extra hard my whole life to provide a good life for my kids and her, but she never wanted to work, it was always me working. When I got fed up and decide to leave, the laws, the courts, even my lawyer (this one and the previous one) seem all to side with her. I need a break, I live paycheck to paycheck trying to survive, while she can cry and get what she wants. It is ridiculous and very unfair.

Long story short, I required Nedas legal services after dealing with a very long, difficult expensive, and bitter custody case. The Attorney I had working for me prior to Neda was great up to a certain point, but by the next phase of the Case, I needed a specific type of lawyer that utilized not only a different approach and tactics, but someone who is well respected among the Judges and other Attorneys. Yes, that kind of stuff will make a difference in your case. After the very first hearing with Neda as my Attorney, literally the case did a complete 180 in my favor, everything has been resolved and most importantly my family is UNITED and together. If this is your first time dealing with Divorce/Custody let me tell you this: Family Court Sucks, Its expensive, stressful, and a nightmare. Do your research on Attorneys, be prepared to spend A LOT, and if you can, really try to resolve your problems before they get to court. The Kids deserve Two parents who can get put their problems aside and get along. Thank you Neda and all her Staff! My Family absolutely appreciates all you have done to help us!

Ms. Aguirre and her team were extremely helpful with my case. They were very caring and also had my back when my ex’s lawyer was being sketchy. She takes her job very seriously and you can tell she loves what she does. I’m so grateful for her and her team.
