The best in the world I promise you that everything I wanted I got. You she is so sweet and responds very quickly to messages and emails. Thank you Mellisa for all the help
Mel Sobel was a beacon of strength in one of the most difficult times in the life of our family. She was not only able to provide what I would consider some of the most knowledgeable legal advice, but she was able to understand the nuances that come with a divorce of over 35 years. She dealt with a very difficult opposing attorney with fines and grace. I cannot say enough of how wonderful she is.
Melissa represented me through a challenging divorce, and I'm very thankful that she was my attorney. She handled every curveball my ex- threw at us with skill and finesse, and demonstrated an innate ability to see (and thus prepare for) what might be coming our way. Beyond her legal experience and expertise, and perhaps more importantly, is Melissa's capacity to relate on human terms. Divorce is a scary thing, and it's very difficult to know what to expect when you haven't been through it before. Melissa did an outstanding job of preparing me for the more emotional side of the process, and was a comforting voice during the most stressful phases of my case. She listens very well, and has the empathy to understand how disruptive the divorce process can be to normal life. The last thing you want to worry about in a difficult family court case is the competence of your attorney; with Melissa, I always felt prepared and confident. I highly recommend her!
Ms. Smart helped me to navigate through a contentious and gratuitously lengthy divorce. I needed an advocate who would protect my child and protect my assets. From the initial consultation through the final judgment, Ms. Smart treated my case as though it were her own experience. She set realistic expectations with me about possible outcomes and made a diligent effort to have a solution or game plan for each possible outcome. I felt prepared every step of the way. The outcome was ultimately the best possible one. I credit that to Ms. Smart’s excellent strategy, prowess in the courtroom, and her unfailing commitment to the best interest of my child. For this I am very grateful. I unwaveringly recommend Ms. Smart.
Melissa was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the situation to me and was very honest about the possible outcome for my particular situation. She answered all my questions and was prompt on her email replies. Melissa displayed a calm, assertive demeanor that made me feel confident in her ability to represent my case.I'm very grateful for all her time and knowledge of out of state court orders and how they are heard in the California court system.

She was not only able to provide what I would consider some of the most knowledgeable legal advice, but she was able to understand the nuances that come with a divorce of over 35 years. She dealt with a very difficult opposing attorney with fines and grace. I cannot say enough of how wonderful she is.
Melissa represented me through a challenging divorce, and I'm very thankful that she was my attorney. She handled every curveball my ex- threw at us with skill and finesse, and demonstrated an innate ability to see (and thus prepare for) what might be coming our way. Beyond her legal experience and expertise, and perhaps more importantly, is Melissa's capacity to relate on human terms. Divorce is a scary thing, and it's very difficult to know what to expect when you haven't been through it before. Melissa did an outstanding job of preparing me for the more emotional side of the process, and was a comforting voice during the most stressful phases of my case. She listens very well, and has the empathy to understand how disruptive the divorce process can be to normal life. The last thing you want to worry about in a difficult family court case is the competence of your attorney; with Melissa, I always felt prepared and confident. I highly recommend her!
Ms. Smart helped me to navigate through a contentious and gratuitously lengthy divorce. I needed an advocate who would protect my child and protect my assets. From the initial consultation through the final judgment, Ms. Smart treated my case as though it were her own experience. She set realistic expectations with me about possible outcomes and made a diligent effort to have a solution or game plan for each possible outcome. I felt prepared every step of the way. The outcome was ultimately the best possible one. I credit that to Ms. Smart’s excellent strategy, prowess in the courtroom, and her unfailing commitment to the best interest of my child. For this I am very grateful. I unwaveringly recommend Ms. Smart.
Melissa was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the situation to me and was very honest about the possible outcome for my particular situation. She answered all my questions and was prompt on her email replies. Melissa displayed a calm, assertive demeanor that made me feel confident in her ability to represent my case.I'm very grateful for all her time and knowledge of out of state court orders and how they are heard in the California court system.
The best in the world I promise you that everything I wanted I got. You she is so sweet and responds very quickly to messages and emails. Thank you Mellisa for all the help
