Ty Supancic is an amazing attorney and a fabulous human being. I've referred a number of clients to him. He has graciously and generously provided counsel regardless of their circumstances. What has impressed me and my clients is his ability to quickly tune into their needs; he listens deeply and actively. If you or someone you know is in need of a family law attorney, I strongly recommend Ty Supancic: a professional of high integrity and great skill. read more

What an absolutely amazing experience working with the law collaborative. I referred many people over the years and have known the family who owns and operates this company for years and years. My family probably saved close to $1 million over the years staying out of court, using their profoundly intelligent methodology of Collaborative Law. Really, nobody does it better. If an attorney even mentions litigation, or you can sense that they're stirring up problems between you and your potential ex, dump them. Other lawyers have the opportunity to take 50 to 60% of the families wealth by simply going to court unnecessarily. Don't mess around with other firms, go with Ty and Patricia at the law collaborative! read more

Divorce sucks, plain and simple, but everyone here helps to make it as peaceful and easy as possible. I can't believe I'm saying that I had a lovely divorce experience, but I did. We did. They helped us navigate all of the paperwork and scary legal things, and we were able to concentrate on healing, and moving on. I truly cannot thank all of you enough, for your time and patience, you helped us both on what is traditionally a wretched path, with ease. Thank You read more

Ron is an excellent listener, perhaps the most important quality of a personal attorney. He allowed me to share my story uninterrupted, giving me ample time to explain my situation. He asked clarifying questions, rather than jump to premature conclusions. Upon our first meeting, I felt fully heard and cared for. When it comes to family law, Ron knows his stuff. His years of experience comes through in his direct, yet practical approach. He doesn't waste time with hypotheticals and "maybes." Rather, he knows what works and leads with confidence. Ron ultimate wants to help clients reach a mutually respectful agreement, especially when children are involved. His approach and priorities truly embody "the best interests of children." Ron never expressed or encouraged hostility on my behalf. Rather, he espoused a dignified approach. read more

The best decision of my life! I was completely lost until I found The Law Collaborative. Mr. Ron Suparnic has been my biggest supporter! I was completely lost in a custody battle. Mr. Suparnic's years of experience and education surpass any other attorney I consulted with. His compassion made me feel heard and supported. I highly recommend if you want professional consistent intelligent representation that's truly has your best interest at heart. He knows the law and you will to. He leaves no stone unturned and his mind is so sharp, the advice and suggestions are limitless. read more

Do not be fooled by their claims of being a "collaborative" approach to divorce. Ron Supancic knew I was in a position to be a good financial gain for his practice. He did everything possible to create as many billable hours as he could. I was completely taken advantage of. He is no different than any other attorney who wants to make your situation as difficult and costly as he can make it. There's nothing worse than to be in a dire situation and led to believe he will help you through it honestly and economically, only to be robbed blind. Also see Avvo.com and look him up. It makes mention of some DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS against him. I'm not surprised. read more

I'm so grateful to have gone with Ty Supancic at The Law Collaborative office. He and his staff made my divorce go as smoothly and efficient as possible. He explained and talked me through some difficult dicisions with ease and patience. I will be forever grateful, I highly recommend him!! Thanks again for making such a difficult experience as easy as possible. read more

Ron helped me more than words can express. He was a kind, generous listener from the beginning, and helped me plot a road map for my family law issue. His vast experience is obvious from each deliberate word and he referred me to experts that were at the top of their field. I owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude and will count meeting with him as one of the most fortunate in my challenging saga. Thanks so much! read more

My ex husband and I hired Ty to dissolve our marriage a couple of years ago. It was a painful time in my life but I'm absolutely happy with my choice to have sought out Ty's services. He made everything easy and straightforward and always responded promptly to my emails (I ask a lot of questions). I hope no one I love goes through a divorce since it's one of the most awful experiences of my life, but if they do I would absolutely recommend Ty. read more

Ty helped me through a very challenging separation and divorce. He was aware of, and kept me alert to so many details other divorce attorney's I've hired (and fired) simply didn't even think of. That made all the difference. I really felt like I had a true professional had my back the whole time, who also cared about my outcome as much as I did, and that's extremely rare. read more

Ty is amazing! What an awesome concept to mediate. Less stress and a feeling of being able to have a private divorce with dignity and mutual respect. He is changing the concept of "divorce" being an adversarial, horrible experience. Props! And Patricia and Karla are super friendly. Definite plus. read more

This is a very professional law office. I highly recommend lawyer, Ty Supancic, and the staff. Karla, the paralegal, was also wonderful. I went through a divorce. He made some wonderful recommendations that help myself and my ex-husband through the mediation process. He can definitely help you save money. It was the least expensive divorce. I am very grateful my work recommended him and his law office through the EAP program (employee assistance program) as one of the least expensive options. Thank you, thank you. I am very grateful. read more

I hired Ty do some estate planning/trust setup for me and he was great. I didn't know the first thing about it but he laid the process out clearly and gave me some suggestions based on what I told him about myself and family. Everything was filed and mailed fast, which is all I can ask (although I will say that this is the only time I've ever needed estate planning so I don't really have a frame of reference). I only paid him to set up the estate but since then he has still been very responsive to my questions. He also sent out a few pre-emptive emails about upcoming legal changes that might effect me. Much appreciated. read more

This is the way divorces should be done. There is no reason that two rational people shouldn't handle it this way. Much less stress and expense (one lawyer instead of two, and not doing it the old "adversarial" way cuts way down on billed hours). Ty Supancic is very knowledgable and is a genuinely nice guy. Five stars! read more

Ty Supancic was an amazing attorney for my son during his custody hearings. Ty explained everything and generally cared for my son. Ty was very easy to get a hold of, and answered our emails usually the same day. I'm grateful and highly recommend him. Thanks Ty for being there for my son during this difficult time. read more

Yep! Five stars and "Woohoo! As good as it gets" as per Yelp's five-star rating system. Referred by a friend to The Law Collaborative for legal advice, Ty Supancic was as kind and receptive to my plight as anyone could be, and I would refer him and the firm to anyone in need of great, honest and seasoned advice. Thank you, Ty! I really appreciate it! read more

I am a Grief Recovery coach. I attended The Law Collaborative Los Angeles free Divorce Workshop that is on the 2nd Saturday of every month to evaluate their service and sincerity, and I was impressed. Attorney Ron Supancic shared a wealth of very useful information for anyone considering and going through a divorce. Information that I did not learn from my attorneys when I was going through a divorce myself. Even better, Ron was also able to present the vast information without making it confusing or boring to a layperson such as me. Last but definitely not least, Ron was very sincere in his willingness to help us who are facing the pain of divorce. I could tell how compassionate and empathetic he is and how he strives to support you not only legally but emotionally by providing resources and referrals to the matter of the heart. Divorce is never fun nor easy, but as a Grief Coach, I could tell that attorney Ron Supancic really does his best to make it at least painful as possible for you. read more

I went to the Divorce workshop and it was very helpful. I mean it was what I needed both legally and emotionally! I would like to thank this law center. read more

Do not be fooled by their claims of being a "collaborative" approach to divorce. Ron Supancic knew I was in a position to be a good financial gain for his practice. He did everything possible to create as many billable hours as he could. He caused many problems between my spouse and I. I was completely taken advantage of. He is no different than any other attorney who wants to make your situation as difficult and costly as he can make it. There's nothing worse than to be in a dire situation and led to believe he will help you through it honestly and economically, only to be robbed blind. Working with him added major insult to injury. I spent $35,000. And got NOWHERE. When I asked them to stop, they quickly sent out numerous letters to my husbands attorney to create another $5,000. Of billable hours In a single week! Then claimed I hadn't signed the legal letter stating they were no longer to represent me soon enough to avoid the extra $5,000. It was more than disgusting! I too, went to the divorce workshop. That's how they lure you in. Do not expect the magnanimous treatment to continue! Make sure you have atleast $50k to throw away on your divorce if you use their services. read more

Great guys to to get in contact with for legal advice, straight to the point, intelligent, great listeners, and have your back until the end. read more

Ronald Supancic led the two hour seminar and it was outstanding. He spoke well and demonstrated a genuine interest to impart the information the class members were searching for in addition to providing it in an interesting historical context. A friend referred me to the seminar and I had high expectations for it based on her experience but the seminar exceeded my expectations. I'm grateful to know about Collaborative Law and I feel great about the direction I'll travel as a result of the seminar. read more

Ty is a great mediator and I recommended him to friends who were also going through a divorce. He and his team are fair and compassionate.

I've recently had the pleasure of having had a phone conversation with Ron Supancic, one of the principals. I had a great experience, a very informative, none pressure discussion that left me with some very positive feelings. I was introduced to their web site, and gained a great deal of positive information. I would highly recommend working with Ron. Steven Steinberg read more

HOLD ON TO YOUR WALLET! 1.0 star Posted by Cheryl February 12, 2018 I had decided not to hire this attorney Ronald Supancic, however after he returned my called he swayed me with the notion that he once acted as a "protem" family law judge. I was desperate and convinced myself to pay his extremely high hourly rate thinking I was hiring someone with that type of experience. How disappointed was I when I realized that he couldn't or wouldn't apply that experience to my case. I felt that he did a lot of BIG TALK--NO ACTION!!! I felt he tried to piece me out to his high priced associates to get a slice of the pie, seeing as the first thing he asked me to do was to disclose all my assets. I felt like he prolonged my case intentionally. At the end of nearly a very costly year, I was no closer to any resolutions. I did experience what I deemed to be a lack of integrity from this person that had my life in their hands. A 1-star rating is too high for this attorney. My advise is to clutch your wallet and head in another direction! This review is from a person who hired this attorney. read more

Avoid this guy. He will take your money for not doing anything and then will drop you without warning. There are far better alternatives out there. read more

I am very unhappy. I got stuck on honey they spread in their advertisement on the website talking about "Flat Fee Divorce Packages" But unfortunately it doesn't work like that. They are trying to make as much $$$ as possible. Thy quote you a price which triples at the end. You pay for every single call (even if it takes 30 seconds) minimum 12 minutes of the lawyers time= $70.I spent over $2,000 mainly for preparing forms and at the end I had to leave because the charges were never-ending. They were so angry that they gave me my forms that I paid them to do back stamped and written all over with a permanent marker so I am enable to use them. They even refused to e-mail me blank forms in order for me to rewrite them myself and wished me good luck. Ty shared with me that the common practice used to be to find out how much $$$ the client has and take it all dividing it between the two attorneys . I believe that this practice is still going on. read more

I was referred to The Law Collaborative (TLC) by a colleague. I grew even more interested in working with the firm when I learned its mission is to help clients pursue the most peaceful and cost-effective solutions for separation, divorce, and nullity matters. TLC promotes negotiation and mediation over expensive court battles. From the first time I met Ty Supancic I was impressed by his intelligence, honesty, kindness, and good-natured personality. After we discussed and evaluated my options, I chose to pursue a nullity. A divorce would have been an easier and cheaper route for me to take. However, divorces only allow one to state "irreconcilable differences" as the reasons for the death of the marriage. Since this was not an accurate depiction of the facts, I decided to file for a nullity. From the start I was advised that obtaining a nullity would be a challenge. A nullity enables one to outline the chronology of events and list the specific causes (and explain why one party is at fault) for the end of the marriage, and thus allows one to present a more comprehensive case to the court. However, judges still very rarely grant them. It was clear to me that we were facing an uphill battle. However, I felt confident that I was in good hands with Ty as my representative and advocate. I worked closely with him for months gathering and reviewing the evidence for inclusion in my case, and assisting with the development of the legal documents. Ty is an extremely gifted writer, so this actually made the process enjoyable for me. He was able to consistently and accurately reflect my perspectives in his prose. Ty was also highly responsive to me during all of our communications about the case. I would receive replies to my emails within minutes sometimes, and he always made time to take my telephone calls. He answered at length every question I ever posed, and even took the time to explain larger legal concepts to me. In addition, Ty went to extraordinary lengths to accommodate my schedule for the few times we needed to meet in person. He even spent five hours with me finalizing the court documents and organizing the evidence for the nullity the day before the law office needed to be packed and moved to a new location. He never once tried to rush me or act like he had anywhere else to be but there working on my case. I am pleased to say we obtained the nullity shortly after filing our legal documents in court! The partners in the law firm said it was the first time in their collective 60 plus years of practicing law that they had ever seen a nullity granted so swiftly and based on the strength of the legal documents alone. Customarily a "prove-up" hearing is required with witnesses called to provide testimony. Here is an excerpt from a thank you letter I wrote to Ty following our legal victory: "I am so overwhelmed with gratitude that words are not sufficient to show my appreciation for your work at this moment. So, I will simply say again that I have been tremendously blessed to have you represent me and advocate for me in this nullity. Ty, your unsurpassed intelligence, legal skills, work ethic, sense of humor, unwavering kindness, and cheerful personality truly brought out the best in me. I developed great confidence in your abilities, and this allowed me to focus on the sometimes emotionally difficult process. Equally important to me was feeling encouraged and supported by you every step of the way. Your positive outlook kept me from becoming undermined by doubt, or entertaining any fear that I was "wasting" time and money on my pursuit of what I knew were worthy goals. You worked tirelessly and patiently with me for months during this labor-intensive process." Ty is highly recommended. read more

First of all folks don't do mediation. If you're getting divorced get real attorneys not someone who isn't good enough to be a REAL attorney. You need someone looking out for you and someone in the middle is not. Now to Ty, first he is anything but impartial he took sides in our mediation many times and inserted himself into decisions he should not have and talked my ex out of things already decided. Secondly he screwed up our paperwork so that now I have to retain a REAL attorney at my own cost to fix support issues. When I called him to make good on that and fix it for us since we paid him 5000 dollars he refused and stop talking to us. Don't be taken in by this guy. I should have known better by the first thing he told us when we sat down. A story about how in his divorce he refused to stand next to his ex during his daughters graduation so his daughter had to choose to go to one parent or the other when she came off stage. Any MAN that would do that to his child is not someone you want handling your case. I beg you all to retain REAL competent attorneys who will advocate for you. This guy is just a scammer that will charge you and not do what you asked all the while not being impartial. read more

Divorce can be a very painful process. It sure was for me. And despite the fact that I coach men through this kind of process for a living, I still found myself in a surreal world that took me to new depths of emotion. Anger, disbelief, betrayal. I found myself feeling things I had never felt before. I found myself considering actions that were completely out of character. I had desperate times. Through it all, Ty had the ability to keep me focused on the goal while we dealt with the legal machinations of my ex and her attorney. Ty knows his business and he knows people. That's an essential combination for this type of thankless work. How does one keep an open heart for his client while witnessing litigious behaviors that are downright unethical and possibly illegal? How does an attorney keep his client calm and on track when his livelihood, retirement funds and relationships with his children are seemingly being threatened at every turn? Well, all I can say is that Ty did all of that for me. That's why I've referred him to many of the men I coach who, unfortunately, have found themselves at the end of a relationship. Mediation is the way to go. And if you and your partner can work together, it's a blessing. For mediation, Ty's your man. But if talking across the kitchen table is not going to work for you and your partner, or, if worse, you have to prepare for a potential court battle, Ty is still your man. He's seen it all, he'll care about you throughout the process, and he'll help you to remember what's most important as you make your way through this challenging passage. Thanks, Ty. read more

This attorney defrauded my now ex-wife into thinking he would act as a mediator whereas he actually only represented her during our divorce. Not only that but he asked for a $5,000 retainer upfront (an outrageous fee for a so-called "mediation") while most of the work was done by paralegals. His office was slow to respond, fast to bill. The previous review describes this attorney as kind, intelligent, honest. I would describe him as rather paternalistic, full of himself, and too often off topic. read more
