"As a fellow attorney, I would highly recommend Puja and her team at San Diego Divorce Lawyers. She is so thoughtful and caring about her clients, and highly experienced at what she does. If a client needs a referral for a family law or divorce matter, she is always top of mind."

"There's something to be said when I ask two of my good attorney friends who they would recommend and without hesitation, mentioned SDDL. My ex and I had a plan on how to amicably end our marriage, but I realized over the course of a year that she had no interest in an equal resolution. Even worse, she didn't center our two young children. I retained SDDL late in the process and they were able to quickly get up to speed and push back. I was thoroughly impressed by everyone there and more importantly, the care and empathy they showed. We also discussed long term strategies beyond the dissolution. If you want a law firm who puts people first, contact them."

"I had a wonderful experience with San Diego Divorce Lawyers. From the very beginning, the team was kind, understanding, and patient with me throughout such a difficult process. They took the time to explain every step in detail, which gave me confidence and peace of mind during an uncertain time. What I appreciated most was how approachable and supportive they were. I never felt rushed or overlooked. I actually found them online and decided to take a chance, and I am so grateful I did. The level of professionalism and compassion they showed made all the difference, and I highly recommend them to anyone needing guidance and care through a divorce."

"From the very first phone call discussing my case and how they can help, SDDL have been exceptional in how thorough they handle things. They show they care, they break everything down, and are very honest about the next steps. I have gone through really hard court hearings during my divorce and custody battle. I knew this time, I couldn't do it alone. Marco took the time to really evaluate my case while showing professionalism and heart for my own situation. Every scheduled meeting, call or email was on time. I appreciate the time this team took to meet and coordinate what would be best for me moving forward. I am beyond thankful for Luis who communicated additionally, so that we were all on the same page. They delivered a trust I thought was lost after my many years going through this. This team is knowledgable and deeply care. I cannot recommend them enough!!"

"I honestly can’t recommend SDDL enough! From the very first call to the final resolution of my case, they were nothing but supportive, communicative, and genuinely kind. Going through child custody issues with an ex is never easy, but they made the whole process so much less stressful. Katy was always so welcoming when I called, even in a panic and neither Andrela or Puja were available to speak with me. What I appreciated most was how they always kept me in the loop. I never felt like I was guessing what was happening with my case—they explained everything in a way that made sense, answered all my questions (no matter how small I thought they were), and made sure I felt confident in every decision. It really felt like they had my back the whole time. Also, let’s talk about pricing—legal fees can be overwhelming, but their invoices were always super clear and straightforward. No hidden fees, no surprises, just honest and fair pricing, which I really appreciated. I could also see the work they did on my case, but didn't even bill for it, which I totally appreciated! They weren’t just doing their job—they truly wanted the best outcome for me and my family and supported me every step of the way. It made such a difference knowing I had a team that not only knew their stuff but also genuinely cared about what the outcome was. If you’re looking for a family law firm that’s professional, knowledgeable, and also just really great to work with, this is the one. You would never think that you would find a good attorney by searching online, but I’m so grateful I found them, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone who needs help."
