Atousa Saei

Oh man... .where do I even start? Atousa and her team saved my life. Before hiring them, I was paying alimony, facing possibly losing my son, and already googling ways to live out of my car because I felt so lost - financially & legally. Her law firm whipped my case into shape almost immediatel...y. After our first day in court, alimony was cancelled, my ex had to start paying me child support AND pay me back for the alimony I was wrongfully ordered to pay. They are extremely ethical and kept me on the right path even on days where I was feeling defeated and vindictive. Their honesty and straightforwardness kept me on track and focusing on my ultimate goal of keeping my son safe and having as much custody as possible. They aren't all about "attacking the ex". A couple of them are mothers as well and they understood that the most important thing was my son and ultimately keeping the peace with his dad. I've had a lot of money issues over the last 3 years since my divorce started and they've always worked with me and suggested routes for me to save money in legal fees. (READ: saving money on legal fees, meant less money for them; yet they ALWAYS gave me these types of suggestions). My case got the attention it deserved. I never had to follow up with them to make sure they were still working on my case. I never felt like they forgot about me or I wasn't important enough for them to deal with. Every step of the way, I've felt like I've been going through this with friends by my side (shout-out to Nisha!) who really cared about my outcome. I cannot recommend them enough. Do yourself a favor and go with the Law Offices of Atousa Saei. Because as they say "nobody wins in a divorce" but with Atousa & Nisha - I sure feel like I did! ;)

Obviously when one chooses to leave a 'life' partner and start the divorce process the anxiety is intense. Choosing a lawyer is the first stressful part of that long process. The right choice of that lawyer, your guide through this experience, will dictate your sanity on many levels. Lucky for me I m...ade the perfect choice of lawyer in Atousa Saei. Firstly she is a wonderful, sweet, kind, generous and compassionate human being. She is also extremely knowledgable, thorough and 100% honest. Not only was she a sage guide on the law itself but also she would make a great psychiatrist as well as she was able to read the mental state of my ex partner like a book and as a result use that insight in the settlement process. But above all, Atousa saw me as a human being going through an emotionally taxing experience and treated me like one. On no occasion did I feel like just a client that was being kept open just to be billed (like so many horror stories I have heard). In fact with Atousa it was the opposite. She moved quickly and efficiently through the settlement process to keep my costs to a minimum. If you are unfortunate enough to split with your 'life' partner then your choice of 'divorce' partner is so important. You could choose no better than Atousa! I could not possibly recommend her highly enough!

WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Before moving over to Atousa, I spent over 5 months with my first attorney that instead of pro-actively creating my Paternity case, was constantly in reaction to Opposing Council driving the case. I finally decided to upgrade from that first attorney, researched online an...d found 5 highly rated attorneys that specialized in Family Law. I called them all and 3 of them were quick to respond, and super impressive on the phone. So I set appointments with them all. Atousa being one of them. The other 2 attorneys were extremely impressive, but Atousa was so many levels above them. She completely blew them away! She was so impressive during our meeting and we came up with a 'pro-active' strategy that would completely put us in the driver's seat for my case. I was sold and Atousa took over and immediately. Within a few days the tides of my case had turned and within a few weeks we were in a meeting with Opposing Council to settle the case. Lesson learned: first attorney had cheaper hourly rate, but his inability to drive my case cost me so much more time, stress and money than if I would have gone with Atousa from the very beginning. I really wish I knew about Atousa from the beginning, but I'm beyond content that I found her before the end!! Thank you Atousa, you are the absolute best!!!

Atousa Saei recently helped a friend of mine with her divorce and since she's a little shy, I am writing this review on her behalf. My friend was going through a NASTY high asset divorce and had the most expensive Century City lawyers representing her. She was getting no where with these lawyers but... continued to recieve a big fat bill every month. Then she was referred to Ms. Saei by a friend that used her services in a child custody matter. Once she got on board, the cost of the litigation became 1/2 the amount and the results were coming in twice as fast. Ultimately the pressure of the case made her husband fold because Ms. Saei discovered his over seas assets and there was a full settlement!!!

My divorce was a very emotional time for me and my (then) spouse was a major bully, wanting to simply walk away from the marriage with everything and leave me with nothing. Atousa and her team were absolute champs when it came to defending my case. Her assistant patiently listened and encouraged me w...hile I took inventory of what was mine and what was my spouses, all while having an emotional breakdown. The first "offer" my spouse made, Atousa told me to get up because we were leaving due to the absolutely ridiculous and offensive offer. The divorce process lasted for more than a year and although it was exhausting, Atousa firmly believed we could get justice, and she was right. My spouse had withheld information and although we couldn't prove some of it, he didn't know that and got scared. A few months before our actual court date to let the judge decide, we met and Atousa made an offer with a "take it or we'll see you in court" approach and by the end of the meeting, we walked away with what we asked for. Atousa made sure to include most of her attorney fees in the offer so I didn't have much to pay by the end. She was so professional but also felt like a real friend during the entire ordeal. I was very lucky to find Atousa and would recommend her in a heart beat for anyone seeking representation in a divorce. She's got your back!
