Law Firm of Temica N. Smith - Stockton, California

Bernardo S.

I was referred to Temica Smith back in 2018 by an attorney in a different case. I had a very tough case stacked against me. There were times I just wanted to quit. But she never gave up on me and guided me through my custody battle. She has been the best. Communication is key, and her and her staff have met that time and time again. She is very blunt . Which some may not like and think it's rude. I however appreciate that. Sometimes in the heat of custody battles you get carried away but Temica has always been honest with me. I went from not being able to see my daughter to due a petty mother. To now having my daughter full time. I can't thank Temica enough for everything she does and continues to do . There's never a dumb question , she will answer and guide you through your toughest times. Thank you Temica Smith!

I was told I'd be placed on a waiting list for a consultation, but it felt more like a polite brush-off than a genuine queue. If you're going to advertise availability for services, be upfront about wait times and capacity. This seemed more like cherry-picking clients than a fair or organized intake process. For a small operation, it’s hard to believe there’s an overwhelming "waiting list" of clients.
Communication from receptionist was vague, and misinformed, and I walked away feeling like my time wasn’t valued. Disappointed and moving on to someone who takes their business—and their potential clients—more seriously.

Temica Smith is truly passionate in what she does and it truly shows in her work. She takes her job as your attorney seriously, and is the best at what she does.

Update: Is this what you tell to all your clients who fire you. You never chose to stay on my case because I fired you. I was given supervised visits based on false allegations that my ex husband made against me. One thing I know for sure that no one respects you in that court. Please stop fooling people on the name of god. You have a daughter too, please stop ruining families and robbing people of their money. Eventually everything comes back.

Horrible person and a very horrible lawyer. I hired Miss Smith for my criminal case and family law case and both ended up getting screwed. I am in a worst possible situation as compared to how It was when Miss Temica took my case. Her staff has been extremely nice especially Amy. Some of the problems I have had in my case:
1) Filing a wrong motion making the judge angry.
2) Not preparing the client for mediation or any court hearing.
3) Not reviewing the documents before the court date.

P.S. Please do your research. Please don't fall for the positive review because they are not real. I have experienced it first hand.

In the end, the ultimate loss falls upon the people fighting for their families. Not every lawyer cares. Please do your research before hiring Miss Temica

Temica and her staff are amazing individuals. They helped me during a very difficult and challenging time with my two cases. Amy was extremely supportive and helpful through out the whole process. I can’t thank Temica enough for her time and dedication. Thank you!

Temica is absolutely worth the five stars. She helped me on somewhat of a last minute situation and was extremely helpful. Not only did she give me great legal advice, but also gave her useful opinion on a personal level. She is extremely welcoming and friendly. I was able to discuss things with her that were not necessarily the easiest to share, and not once did she make me feel judged or insecure, but rather built a strong trust and sense of comfort. Outside of the courtroom, Temica was very caring of my safety and decision making. Inside the courtroom, she was very collected and confident! I would highly recommend Temica to anyone, regardless of what it may be! Even setting up a consult to get a feel for what a great person and attorney she is would be worth your time!

I have nothing but good things to say about Mrs. Smith. She is by far the best Family law attorney we have come across. And just a short amount of time she has helped my husband get joint custody and actual continuous visits that he wasn't able to get before. Her and her staff are amazing and are there 24/7 to hear from you even if it's by email we have received an answer at all hours. She puts everything into making sure you get the best outcome for you and your child. And she is definitely not intimidated by anything or anyone in that courtroom when she goes to bat for you. Her fees are more than fair. I could go on and on about how amazing this woman is and I would absolutely recommend any and everyone to her. Thank you again Temica for everything you have done and continue to do for us we are Beyond blessed.

Temica Smith did an outstanding job while I had her as an attorney since last year 2019 up until this late year 2020. She was very professional! She truly cares about her clients and their well-being. When I was unsure about things with my situation she was very supportive towards me and let me think things through for quiet sometime. I went through a bad time in my life. But, she assured me that what I was doing was the right thing. Now, things in my life is a lot better. I’m grateful and thankful I had a wonderful attorney like Temica. I would DEFINITELY hire her again as an attorney in the future if needed!

thank you for all your support and time Temica!
