If we could give Paula and Courtney 10 STARS, we would. We required something custody-related and required it in VERY short order, and Paula and Courtney turned our documents for the court around NEXT DAY. Not only were they knowledgeable, but they were friendly and courteous and respectful of our situation and our timeline. Gold star service, 100%, and we look forward to continuing our attorney-client relationship for any future family legal matters.Posted on Google
Amber RamirezGrateful for the guidance provided by Paula and Courtney throughout my divorce process. From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable about family law.

I’m grateful for their professionalism, dedication, and compassion during such an important time.

travis gilliamThere comes a moment when you need someone to speak for you. I ended up in a predicament where I felt completely overwhelmed and confused. Paula was the best decision I could’ve possibly made. I spoke with Courtney, her paralegal, when I initially called her legal practice. She was well-organized, professional, and able to quickly grasp the situation. Paula and Courtney persisted in asking insightful questions about my circumstances throughout the process, which would eventually result in a well-considered defense. I had to go to court after Paula helped me navigate the mediation, which regrettably did not settle the matter. With the documentation provided, Paula was able to generate a strategy for the hearing that was straightforward and organized. I greatly benefited from her professionalism and knowledge of courtroom procedures during the actual hearing. Paula was able to represent me professionally while maintaining my composure and mental clarity. She won my case thanks to her successful strategy. If you're searching for a qualified attorney, I suggest Paula lock Smyth.Posted on Google

Melissa MunozPaula and Courtney did an amazing job in helping me with my divorce! I found them through my job benefits and reading the reviews I went with them. They got me divorced so fast and didn't have to show up to court. I would recommend them to anyone!!!Posted on Google
Keri DPaula and her paralegal Courtney have been nothing short of incredible. They have walked with me through one of the most difficult and emotional times of my life with compassion, strength, and unwavering support. Paula is honest, knowledgeable, and has been a true advocate for myself and my kids. She never tells you just what you want to hear. She tells you what you need to hear, and she does it with care and clarity. Courtney has been equally amazing. She is always responsive, organized, and supportive. Together, they made me feel heard, informed, and genuinely cared for. I never felt like just another case to them. They took the time to understand my situation and went above and beyond to protect what mattered most. If you are looking for a family law team who will not only fight for you but truly care about your well being and future, I cannot recommend Paula and Courtney enough. I am forever grateful for what they have each done for me and my children.Posted on Google
Erika EscobedoGoing through a divorce process can be very hard. I want to thank Paula and Courtney for their thorough guidance and patience. If you are looking for an attorney I highly recommend contacting them. Thank you Paula and Courtney once again!Posted on Google
Vanessa GeorgeGoing through any transitional period can be hard, but Paula and Courtney made the divorce process smooth and easy (uncontested, with kids). I initially found Paula via a work benefit website, read her reviews, and spoke with her to discuss the process. She was clear, concise, and direct, which I appreciated. She and Courtney have been very quick and helpful with their replies to my questions. The experience has been efficient and pretty stress-free, which I greatly appreciate in an otherwise stressful time! Thanks ladies! ETA: Courtney was so sweet to call me after hours and update me that the decree had been signed. She knew I was anxiously awaiting the news, and I appreciate her taking that time to give me the news when she did. They've been great!
