Mr. Zitney was clear, sharp, and honest from day one. He didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear -- he walked me through potential outcomes, helped me assess whether pursuing certain paths made sense financially, and was upfront about the risks. That made it easier to stay focused and avoid costly mistakes. His courtroom presence was strong and respectful, and he was prepared for every twist. His team was also great -- fast, professional, and compassionate. If you're going through a messy property or divorce case and want someone who will fight smart -- not just hard -- this is the office you want on your side.

I had a previous attorney and ended up wasting nearly $15,000 from start to finish -- and by "finish," I mean the point where I finally had to let him go. He was a nice guy, but "nice" wasn't getting me results. I needed someone attentive, educated, aggressive, proactive -- someone who truly fights for their clients. That's exactly what I got with VANESSA GNEWKOW and her team. They were so on top of everything that at times they were stressing me out because I couldn't keep up with how proactive they were. That's the kind of attorney you want in your corner! Time is money. If you want to spend months going back and forth, wasting time and paying more money with the wrong attorney, keep scrolling. But if you're tired, frustrated, and ready to finally get through whatever situation you're dealing with and move on in life, call her office IMMEDIATELY and schedule a consultation. Make sure to tell her you read ANTHONY DEL TORO's review and you are ready to retain her immediately!!! Moral of the story: When you hire Vanessa Gnewkow, other attorneys will tuck their tails between their legs. I HIGHLY recommend Vanessa and her team. 5 stars all the way!!! Don't waste your time with anyone else!!!

In May of 2023 I retained Julianne Vandergrift to handle my divorce and custody case, with the…read moreexpectation of a competent and supportive advocate during a challenging time. Unfortunately, my experience fell short of these expectations. There was a lack of effective communication, timely updates, and diligent case management from Julianne and her office. On multiple occasions, I felt overlooked, misled, and lost throughout the process. Mediation was scheduled, and I reached out via email to seek guidance. I was scheduled for a telephone appointment with Julianne on Sunday afternoon, the day before the mediation, but no specific time was provided. I waited all day for the call and eventually emailed the office at 8:06 p.m. Julianne responded the following morning at 9:11 a.m., after the mediation had already concluded. The mediation itself was highly distressing; I left the session feeling as though I had done something wrong. The mediator remarked that I was too emotional and advised me to "get myself together," which only added to the frustration of an already difficult experience. I retained an attorney to help guide me through this tremendously difficult process, but I was left feeling overwhelmed, confused, and fearful. My initial court hearing was scheduled for mid-July 2023 but was postponed the Friday prior due to a family emergency involving Julianne. The rescheduled hearing did not take place until October 2023. I met with Julianne for the first and ONLY time at the October 2023 hearing. By February 2024, I had incurred over $10,000 in legal fees while still attempting to resolve my case, with monthly billing for services that were unclear. There were extended periods with no communication from the office. I was fighting for retirement accounts that, based on my understanding of California law, should be considered community property and divided equally in a long-term marriage. In mid-February 2024, I received a $3,000 invoice from the office. When I sought clarification and requested a call with Julianne, I was instead sent an email stating: "Unfortunately, we cannot begin working on responding to this until you have replenished your trust account in the amount of $3,000.00. Please be sure to speak to Diana, our billing specialist, at your earliest convenience. Once you have deposited the necessary amount, we will be in contact with you to ascertain the triable issues in your case in order to respond accordingly." My interaction with Diana from the billing department was particularly disheartening, as she was rude and unprofessional. Despite my concerns, I replenished the trust account, as the first status conference was scheduled for March 2024. However, I had no clear understanding of the purpose of the conference, and no explanation was provided. Furthermore, I was informed that Julianne would be on vacation and unavailable to attend Daniel her associate attended in her place. By late May 2024, after incurring $12,000 in legal fees, I found myself unable to continue paying Julianne for her services. I felt completely overwhelmed and taken advantage of, having to navigate my court case independently without prior knowledge of divorce, custody, or the associated legal complexities. While I recognize that legal matters can be intricate, the lack of professionalism, communication, and commitment I experienced only exacerbated an already stressful situation. I cannot recommend the Law Office of Julianne Vandergrift to others undergoing a divorce unless significant improvements are made in their services.

He is expensive, but you absolutely get what you pay for. The hardest thing is bedside manner. He's not gentle, he's not nice, he'll call you out straight to your face. But... he isn't gonna sugar-coat stuff. He'll firmly and bluntly tell you how it is, because it's what will help you make an informed decision about your case. He's also an excellent communicator - available by text or email. That was super helpful to assuage concerns I had about the case at odd hours. And he gets results.

From the very beginning, All American Law treated my case as if I were family, and that level of care made all the difference during such a stressful time. I am incredibly grateful to Christine James for taking on my case and helping guide me through such a difficult situation. From the start, I felt reassured knowing I had a firm behind me that genuinely cared about my family and my future. I especially want to thank Danielle Correa, who worked closely with me throughout the process and truly took my case on as if it were her own. Danielle was compassionate, responsive, strategic, and incredibly dedicated every step of the way. She took the time to understand every detail of my situation, answered my questions, and made sure I always felt informed and supported. When it came time for court, Danielle fought vigorously to ensure my voice was heard and successfully obtained orders that I am extremely happy and grateful for. Her professionalism, preparation, and advocacy in the courtroom were truly impressive and gave me confidence during an otherwise overwhelming process. What really sets this firm apart is how responsive and supportive they are. They make you feel like more than just another case, and you can tell they genuinely care about their clients and their families.
