My divorce was extremely painful. It has been ugly, painful and relentless and I could not imagine any of my hard-fought triumphs without Valentina at my side. Valentina has a style of absolutely committed personal advocacy. She steps in my shoes. She helps you see what you care about and what you don't--and she constructs the strategic plan to get there. You are never alone. My child and my child's well-being are the most important elements in my life and in my divorce. Along every step, Valentina achieved outcomes that I could not have imagined and I feel that she cares about me and my child as if it were her own family. It gives tremendous peace of mind to be in such expert hands.

Valentina was very straightforward and truthful about the intricacies of my divorce case. I did not get the sense that she was dragging things on to run up the bill like many lawyers may do. She was certainly acting in my best interest and I highly appreciated that about her.
