TESTIMONIALS


  • Anonymous
    Teresa was highly recommended by a friend to assist with my divorce and parenting plan. What I thought was going to be a simple process, turned quickly into a nightmare. Teresa and her staff were right there every step of the way. They were always available when I needed them and kept me updated at all times. Teresa and her staff always remained extremely professional but firm when dealing with a very difficult, unruly and unprofessional opposing attorney. They all spent a tremendous amount of time and energy to push our case to the finish line. There are no words to describe how how amazing and empowering these women have been. There is not enough thanks to go around for support they provided me. They helped me realize my strengths as not only a mom but as a woman, I didn't know I had. They all helped me become so much stronger and push myself thru this very brutal journey. They kept me going when I did not believe I could. If you are looking for a strong, firm, but compassionate, and caring no non-sense attorney/firm you have chosen the right one. I appreciate these women more than they know.

    I am sincerely grateful to the team at The Law Office of Teresa McNamara for their support in my recent divorce trial. I needed to be heard and understood. Mrs. McNamara did that for me, and then followed the path that was right for me. Mrs. McNamara fought for me while maintaining a respectful posture towards opposing counsel. This opened the door for compromise on areas where it made sense, saving needless litigation. Mrs. McNamara knew my checkbook was not open ended and did her best to be wise with her time and not exploit me while I was in a crisis. Mrs. McNamara’s team was very responsive. Emails and messages were returned promptly and thoughtfully. And after we finally crossed the finish line, they were still on it as we wrapped up final details. It’s not just about the perceived win or loss, but it’s also important to feel supported along the way. Mrs. McNamara cared personally about me and the outcome of my case. I now have a fresh start.

    Going through a divorce is a difficult process for anyone. Teresa McNamara and her staff helped make the process as easy and quick as possible. I had already been through two other family law attorneys, over a two-year period, who had no sense of urgency to get my divorce completed. After my first meeting with Teresa, she was filing for child support and moving quickly to get to a final resolution. Teresa and her paralegal, Kourtney, were always available to answer questions and concerns. Teresa has a no-nonsense approach and is clear and realistic in her legal advice. I always felt that she had my best interest at heart. I highly recommend Teresa McNamara for your family law attorney.

    Teresa and her great team helped me navigate a very difficult time in my life. I thought divorce would be manageable, but I was wrong. Plenty of lawyers know the law. Few know how to balance the law with the practicalities that their clients face, and are able to balance the fight with what is best for their client to resolve the dispute. As a trial lawyer myself, I can say with confidence that my decision to retain Teresa was the best decision I could have made for myself, my son and also my ex-wife. I could not recommend anyone more highly.

They truly cared about my situation and wanted only the best outcome for my daughter and I. I needed somone I could trust at a very difficult time and they were there. Thank you Teresa and Kourtney for giving me my life back.

    Teresa is without a doubt one of the best family law attorneys I have met. She has been able to walk me through some very difficult child support and visitation issues. I was referred to Teresa by a colleague after my original family law attorney allowed the family court to walk all over me. Teresa took on my case and explained all my options after she researched the issues at hand. I truly appreciate how thorough she is and how she can get answers to questions quickly. She also has a gift of walking me through issues and not letting the noise get in the way. I highly recommend Teresa!

    I was referred to Teresa McNamara, by a friend, to help me with my divorce. Teresa helped me every step of the way. She was patient, professional and understanding. She took the time to explain every form, order and stipulation, and was straightforward in dealing with any issues that came up. She assessed every angle of the situation in order for me to get the best possible settlement. Teresa was not only a professional with me but also with all of her correspondence to the opposing counsel. I have already recommended her to another friend who is in need of her services. I highly recommend her across the boards.

    I was fortunate to be referred to Teresa from a close friend. Teresa was very open to explaining the steps, requirements and situations that may arise in my divorce proceedings. She is very knowledgeable about not only the process, but legal strategies that will assist you in getting the best possible outcome for settlement. She takes the time to explain every document, and procedural step with the courts. Without her guidance I truly don’t know how I would have achieved the financial results attained in my settlement. Teresa’s professionalism, knowledge, and compassion for what I was enduring was very appreciated. I highly recommend Teresa if you are considering hiring legal counsel.

    Teresa McNamara was recommended to me by a Los Angeles County Attorney as the ONLY Orange County family law attorney that he would recommend to me for assistance in a post-dissolution matter. Ms. McNamara did not disappoint! In court, she was highly professional and knowledgeable. She came prepared and secured the order I was seeking. Her fees were reasonable and I highly recommend her to anyone needing assistance in family law matters.
