San Diego Divorce Lawyers, APC

I found San Diego Divorce Lawyers through an online search. They were one of three firms I consulted with to find the best fit. I chose SDDL because I appreciated the manner in which they explained the process to me, they weren't pushy and they were cost effective. I wanted a female representative and was paired with Andrella Gonzalez who was such a great fit for me. I was stressed and nervous and needed someone who was empathetic, listened to my concerns and advocated for me at every turn. That was Andrella. She was thorough, trustworthy and highly competent. Her assistant Kirsten was equally as easy to work with and helpful. The team made a challenging endeavor as smooth as possible. I highly recommend them.

I hired Andrella Gonzales to help me resolve a long-standing issue with my ex-wife involving an old IRS tax bill from my divorce. Even though our divorce agreement clearly stated that the tax balance was to be split 50/50, the IRS pursed me alone for the full amount years later. To protect myself and my family from futher action, I ultimately paid the entire $31,000 balance. When I tried to settle the matter directly with my ex-wife, she refused to pay her share - which left me with no choice but to seek legal help.
From that moment I contacted San Diego Divorce Lawyers, and was put in touch with Andrella Gonzales, she was exceptional. She took the time to understand the situation in detail, laid out my options clearly, and guided me through each step with confidence and professionalism. Her communication was always timely, thorough, and reassuring.
Through the process, Andrella Gonzales advocated firmly on my behalf. When my ex-wife refused to cooperate, Andrella Gonzales prepared for court and ensured we were ready. At the very last minute - the day before our court appearance - my ex-wife finally offered a minimal repayment plan. With Andrella's counsel, I countered with a more reasonable agreement that did not include attorney fee penalties and required a fair monthly repayment. My ex-wife ultimately accepted the offer, and Andrella presented the stipulation to the judge, who approved it.
Thanks to Andrella's expertise and dedication, I was able to obtain a fair and enforceable resolution to an issue that had been hanging over me for years. I am incredibly grateful for her work. If you need an attorney who is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly committed to her clients, I highly recommend Andrella Gonzalez.

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.
