Hired Attorney Ruth Lavada Vernier

Ruth Vernier was my 3rd attorney over the last 8 1/2 years. From my first meeting with Ruth, I knew she had a deep care and passion for her clients. She and Brooke did an awesome job representing me and the best interest of my children. Tara Mora was also great in answering my questions and gathering information to prep for trial. Ruth was recommended by one of my previous attorneys whom I trusted would direct me to what I needed in my case. She said I would not be disappointed. I can honestly say, I was not. Today, I finally have closure and peace.

THE BEST!As a single father trying to get custody of my son, I had my doubts. So I only wanted the best, and that's when I found Ruth! With the help of Ruth and her team I was able to get custody of my son! Everybody was so helpful and professional, they answered all my questions and kept my mind as ease through the whole process. I couldn't have asked for a better team to represent me.if you are a father and are debating whether to attempt to get custody of your children just call Ruth, trust me it was the best decision I ever made!

High level of trust. Consistently provided me with information related to divorce process, path forward, updates, and general guidance. Made an otherwise very difficult life choice relatively painless. Was able to focus on welfare of children and practical concerns as oppose to the administrative requirements of divorce throughout the process. Would recommend law firm to friends and family

I'm not one to typically write reviews but I have used various different attorney offices for family court and by far vernier and associates did more and kept updated with what was going and put me at ease. I've never trusted a law firm more than them and would definitely use them again and would recommend them to any one who asks.

Vernier & Associates is an outstanding law firm that truly cares about their clients. I mainly worked with Ms. C. Tenille Duncan and Ms. Rachel Springer and I cannot express how grateful I am for their hard work and dedication. They listen to you in a compassionate manner, and they are very knowledgeable and focused. Also, Ms. Shannon Davis, the receptionist, is always so pleasant and helpful. I highly recommend Vernier & Associates.

Mrs Ruth Vernier and Mrs C. Tenille Duncan were the third family lawyers in my terrible case. My ex husband filed a lawsuit against me wanting full custody. He used very devious ways. Previous lawyers could not help me. Ruth and Tenille won my case amazingly and did everything in the best way. I cannot say enough great things about Ruth and Tenille I am forever grateful ! Thank you for all you did, including answering each and every one of my many emails! You made a difficult process much easier to get through. Thanks for all your hard work and time spent clarifying my questions and concerns.
