Coombs & Dunlap LLP - Napa (CA)

5 /5 Jen Cantrell: I hired Caryn Hreha from Coombs & Dunlap to help me with my child custody case. She is very fair and reasonable. She helps you understand the court system and what outcomes are possible. She’s very smart and compassionate, which is exactly what you need in a lawyer. I always felt better after talking to her, even if it was for a few minutes. She had the best interest at heart for my child, and the outcome was more than I could ever hope for. I definitely will be using this law firm in the future, if I need to.

5 /5 Geoffrey Petersen: Words cannot express the gratitude and blessings that we received from Leslie Juris. Leslie went above and beyond for my wife and I. Leslie was a referral from a friend of ours who is an attorney but does not deal with family law. Leslie did what a past attorney told me was impossible. Leslie is professional, precise, and humble. Leslie will deliver and exceed any and all expectations!

1 /5 Catherine R: I had a professor from school who is a lawyer and one day said something like not all lawyers are professional or are meant to practice law. When a lawyer says “I have never lost a case” I say be careful. I had insurance so I didn’t need to pay for the fees. At the end I lost my case.The whole experience was very odd. I feel like I should of have listened to my gut and fire the attorney however I felt stuck and wanted to believe it’ll be all right. There were days I felt the attorney did not have enough experience in the subject of my issue. There was even a point where I wanted to drop the case because I felt like I was losing. The attorney must have felt offended because she immediately said she had never lost a case. That day I left myself down. I should of stood up and walked away from this law firm. She always couldn’t give me a clear answer to my concerns. She was very distant like almost trying to avoid me. I don’t think she even knew what to do she was leaving it up to me most of the time. I mean that’s why you hire an attorney to help you get through this process and give you advice based off their expertise. Overall , I feel like they just took my case for the money. They did not invest enough research, and time. The other party I’m sure they had a good time watching us how unprepared we were.

5 /5 Christine Tomberg: Jennifer Byram has been our family’s attorney and helped my parents with their trust will and estate planning and proved to be very knowledgeable, caring and supportive through difficult decisions and circumstances that required sensitivity, an intuitive nature and diplomacy. She is also valuable in helping and understanding law as it relates to elderly clients and their special needs and unique circumstances. I highly recommend Jennifer Byram with the utmost trust and respect.

1 /5 Disney Gal: I am just really bummed in my situation . Can I ask a question to you folks ? If your case is about to settle don’t you think if any more fees you may have before settling your case it should be told to you up front ? I paidthem15,0000 dollars at the end of 12,500 before I settled and then ended up owing another 2500 plus? I feel a lawyer you hire should tell you other fees you may owe before settling your court case . Like hey you only have 900 left of your retainer and you’re gonna owe another 2500 on top of that before we settle just so you understand before taking a deal for your divorce ok ? Don’t you think that would be proper etiquette because if I was someone’s lawyer specifically who’s When filing for disability and even if I wasn’t I’d tell them so they know and don’t get blindsided by more fees when all is said and done I got no money out of my settlement because she didn’t tell me my other fees .Very upsetting wouldn’t have settled my case whatsoever period if they had told me I had so much more money in fees owed to the firm. Caryn Hreha isn’t really ready to be a divorce attorney she needs more help preparing properly for her clients . Choose another person way too much money and not enough done . Then she will cut you off and not be your lawyer when you explain your upset with how the end of your case was handled, not proper etiquette whatsoever . Not ok .
