Sara Neumann, Elizabeth Harrington and the entire team at Neumann Family Law are extraordinary. Their commitment to meticulous case preparation is only matched by an impressive display of tenacity and determination. Moreover, Sara's unwavering courtroom confidence and case law knowledge were invaluable throughout the process. Thank you for everything Sara......!!!

Mercedes E. Castro, Esq. is exceptional! I have never met such a highly trained and effective divorce attorney. I found her to be bright, engaging, dedicated, and clever. She always had my best interest in mind. Mercedes was the ace up my sleeve.

Jennifer is truly a warrior angel on earth. This woman will fight your case with all her might as if it was her own life she’s fighting for. She is passionate, feisty and exceptional at her job. This is more than a career, it is her life mission and purpose. She is a sweetheart and a wonderful person that truly cares. You can count on her at the most difficult time of your life! She is a successful lawyer/attorney and I foresee a bright future full of victories for her just like she had for our family today! God bless this lady!

I can’t say enough about my gratitude and appreciation for Jennifer, Tara and their support team for their tireless efforts. Without going into details, I had almost given up I would ever be able to legally find a way to protect my son and be awarded custody. I had been through several lawyers, too many thousands of dollars to count, and years and years of in and out of court that not only was costly but emotionally exhausting to no avail. I think it’s paramount to find a lawyer team that not only understands family law, but is compassionately and aggressively invested in your case. A team that is experienced in dealing with the opposing party that is an expert at faking their way through court and accustomed to being able to deceive everyone, even their own family members. If you are dealing with this type of person in a child custody battle, THIS is the expert team you need. If you don’t find a lawyer that understands these types of people and family law, unfortunately chances are like I experienced that lawyer will not understand the games, manipulation and tireless strategies the other parent will use to make you look like the problem. All the while your child or children are suffering. You may spend time, money, and years of frustration and chances are you won’t come out being able to protect your kids in court. You need an expert team on your side.
These types of people that you may be being forced to coparent with are too good at conning the system and others. Jennifer and Tara you are amazing. You have protected my son, changed my life, and we are now finally after so many years on the road to healing. Jen, you didn’t give up and didn’t let me! I can’t thank you enough.

Jennifer M. Murdock was my attorney at Neumann Family Law. She was a true blessing to me. Jennifer handled all my concerns and business-related divorce matters. Jennifer is a very compassionate family law attorney, and she truly understood my needs and concerns during that very difficult time in my life. I am disabled and she totally took her time with me and handle me with care which really helped me while under tremendous stress. She advised me truthfully and assisted me when I found myself stressed out and going through high anxiety and frustration. She demonstrated patience and understanding which sure helped me relax. Jennifer went far and beyond on my behalf to represent me and defend my domestic community property assets. Jennifer did a lot for me even though at times I appeared to be pushy and anxious. She always remained calm. She understood what I was going through and always provided support. Her door was always open, and she was always ready to listen and provide feedback. Jennifer explained in detail everything she was doing for me and any costs that it would incur and gave me every opportunity to approve or disapprove before work was completed, and I was charged. Jennifer understood that I was living on a fixed income therefore she did whatever she could to cut the cost and advise me of some better ways of handling certain situations to save me money. Towards the end of my divorce Jennifer appeared a few times in court on my behalf and had the judge sign off on my orders which led to me getting my divorce settlement payouts a lot faster. I truly recommend Jennifer and her law firm based on what they have done for me. Like I said, she was truly Heaven sent.

Kathy is wonderful she handled an amicable divorce she was detailed, kept us on track and fair with both my wife and myself. There are always people behind the scenes and Cassidy stands out as a champion. Very pleasant but also a task master to keep things going.

Tara Yelman best attorney I could ever have asked for. She got things done quickly. She listened when I explained the situation, knew exactly what had to be done. Tara’s experience and expertise is the best I have ever seen (I have hired 4 other attorneys in the last 10 years). I only wish she was still the one working with me now. She was my attorney when I lived in California, I have since moved to Oregon otherwise I would be hiring her immediately. Even from Oregon she has gone above and beyond to try to help me within her legal limits.
In California she did exactly what needed to be done to get the correct information instead of just trusting it in the hands of others. She got evidence ! Which is what you need. She fought for myself and my family. Please move to Oregon and practice law here !

I went through a "very challenging" divorce with 4 children that kept me in court for a decade on and off. I used another firm with two different lawyers and was able to measure how effective they were as compared with Sara @ Yelman. Without hesitation, I can say Sara and her team were twice as effective at half the cost.

I cannot begin to express the complexity of my situation, but it was challenging given the circumstances. Unfortunately I became fairly experienced at the process, language and arguments used in my cases over the past 10 years. I've seen the quality of the arguments made on my behalf and Sara always had clear thoughts and rational behavior with opposing counsel and the court. The team at Yelman did great work.

Most important in this process is the cost. Clients are often driven apart by their lawyers, which benefits only the firms involved. Trust me -- I experienced this before Yelman, as did my ex. Sara did not inflame for the benefit of further court actions (and therefore fees). She protected me as a client but was always rational about the options presented to me concerning my decisions. Moving to Yelman over the past 4 years was the best financial choice I made over this extraordinarily challenging phase of my life. I am so grateful for their representation and guidance, and I highly recommend them for complex family law representation.
