San Diego Divorce Lawyers, APC - San Diego, California

I honestly can’t recommend SDDL enough! From the very first call to the final resolution of my case, they were nothing but supportive, communicative, and genuinely kind. Going through child custody issues with an ex is never easy, but they made the whole process so much less stressful. Katy was always so welcoming when I called, even in a panic and neither Andrela or Puja were available to speak with me. What I appreciated most was how they always kept me in the loop. I never felt like I was guessing what was happening with my case—they explained everything in a way that made sense, answered all my questions (no matter how small I thought they were), and made sure I felt confident in every decision. It really felt like they had my back the whole time. Also, let’s talk about pricing—legal fees can be overwhelming, but their invoices were always super clear and straightforward. No hidden fees, no surprises, just honest and fair pricing, which I really appreciated. I could also see the work they did on my case, but didn't even bill for it, which I totally appreciated! They weren’t just doing their job—they truly wanted the best outcome for me and my family and supported me every step of the way. It made such a difference knowing I had a team that not only knew their stuff but also genuinely cared about what the outcome was. If you’re looking for a family law firm that’s professional, knowledgeable, and also just really great to work with, this is the one. You would never think that you would find a good attorney by searching online, but I’m so grateful I found them, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone who needs help.

If I could give less than 1 star I would. Do not choose these lawyers unless you like wasting money and achieving little to nothing. I felt like this firm was focused on billing, rather than legal representation. After nearly 3 months and over $10,000 in fees, they did little to nothing to move my case forward. I did not have an overly complicated case and was simply looking for a lawyer to walk me through this process. For over $10,000 they filed my initial divorce paperwork entered a stipulated agreement to temporary orders while my counterpart's attorney was able to do the same amount of work (even drafting the stipulated order) for $3,000. Even though I had provided my financial information for the required disclosures, they never filed them with the court or provided them to the other party. I ended up doing it myself after I fired them. The majority of their communications with me were about billing. The most stressful part of my divorce up until now was my interactions with this law firm, who was supposed to represent me. They lacked any sort of empathy towards me. For them, clients going through a divorce are not humans, but instead, an ATM.

My divorce was contentious and involved a restraining order and supervised visitation. San Diego Divorce Lawyers were the light at the end of the tunnel. Puja and Andrella were always very nice and answered all my questions quickly. Not only are they extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of family law, but they also took the time to explain the process and ensure that I understood it and felt comfortable with everything. They were proactive and anticipated issues before they arose, which proved to be very valuable during the divorce and child custody issues. The billing was very transparent and I felt it was very fair.

Not only was I extremely happy with the outcomes they were able to achieve, I felt like they truly cared about me and my daughter.

I've recommended Puja and Andrella to several friends and they have been as happy with San Diego Divorce Lawyers as I have been. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs a family law attorney.

I sincerely feel abused. I was recommended by family and friends to seek legal services by Puja and was reassured by staff that working with Andrella Gonzalez I would receive the same level of representation. The experience was nothing short of frustrating and put me in a worse position in every aspect. As a father with a strong case, I was simply looking for competent legal representation and someone who would listen and understand my situation. Unfortunately, that was not the case.
Throughout the process, I never met with Puja or Andrella in person or even had meaningful direct communication with either. Andrella, who “led” my case, was primarily focused on reminding me about payments rather than providing clear legal guidance or addressing my concerns. When I sought clarity about my legal standing or next steps, Andrella was dismissive and evasive—there was no effort to explain my case or strategize with me.
I provided all the necessary documentation, including discovery and exhibits, but felt like I was merely a financial transaction rather than a client in need of genuine legal support. The lack of empathy, professionalism, and attention to my needs was deeply disappointing.
Given my experience, I would strongly advise looking elsewhere for legal representation. Don't be swayed by polished reviews or LinkedIn accolades. There are better options out there for those truly seeking a lawyer who will advocate for their interests.

Looking for a divorce lawyer is not easy when you’re in the middle of navigating the actual divorce, where you’re going to live, what your kids are going to be doing, etc.

I feel so thankful that I ended up having a conversation with Andrella last year. From the get go she was being helpful, and the most professional lawyer I’ve met.

She was so great! She was able to get me almost exactly what I was wanting, and best of all my children are happy.
