In one of the darkest times of my life, Carla was definitely the light I needed. She was there for me 110% and fought for me and my best interests during the whole divorce process. Most of all, she understood the love I have for my Daughter and the importance of having and keeping a relationship with her as my ex-wife was trying her hardest to hinder it. She was recommended to me from a fellow active duty military member...

Prior to contacting Hartley Lamas Et Al. I had consulted 5-6 other attorneys in Ventura County. At each consultation I learned the attorney’s fees and how said fees were calculated but I learned little to nothing about anything else so after each consultation I left feeling confused, defeated and hopeless... Carla Hartley was my saving grace. From the second my call was answered by HL staff, I felt a sense of relief. I was treated with kindness and understanding and...

I was struggling for years representing myself trying to gain all parental rights of my daughter, until I met Bob, Debbie and Carla and that's when they saved my family. Using these wonderful attorneys was the best decision and investment I could have ever made. I gained all parental rights, and my husband who had been raising my daughter since she was a baby was finally able to adopt her and be the dad she deserved to have. I don't...

Carla is my attorney. Today she made a miracle happen. After fighting my family law case for 4 years with my former attorney, paying 30K and getting nowhere, she was able to settle my case. I was referred to her by another local attorney who did not want to take on my case. Carla made me feel comfortable and confident that she knew and understood all of the minutiae of family law. Carla and all of her staff are exceptionally...

I wanted to take the time to post this review because the hardest part of any legal action is finding an attorney who is honest, reputable, talented and concerned about their clients welfare.

I had met with several attorney's before I chose Carla. With other attorney's...

I've found my lawyer for the next 18 years. When I searched for top lawyers in Ventura, Yelp did not disappoint. This firm is incredible. In five years of being in the system (and 3 other lawyers) I've never experienced the level of professionalism and communication that I have here. They are a well oiled machine. When I called for a consult I was very clear that I was looking for someone that was aggressive and would collaborate and hear...

This is an excellent firm with incredibly helpful and caring staff.

Very professional staff. To them the clients are actual people, not just an opportunity to make money. This is a highly ethical firm.

Great experience with a seasoned staff

I needed an exceptional attorney to obtain a move away order, handle revision of custody issues and ongoing financial support.  Carla Hartley is the best attorney - I trust her judgement, legal expertise, integrity and proven ability to get the job done.  There were extenuating circumstances in my case.  The case was not straight forward and there was significant opposition to accomplishing the end result, but Carla perseveres.  She advises, and if you follow that advice, justice will prevail.

Patricia was amazing, although me and my wife decided to reconcile our differences. I think patricia has the drive and the motivation to fight and get justice for her clients. And what impressed me the most was her concern for our kids that they had what they needed from both of their parents.

Bob Maxwell, with the firm Hartley Lamas Et Al. handled my divorce. If you want an attorney who will give 110% to your case, this is the attorney for you. He is such an honest, compassionate man and could not have done a better job of keeping me informed as to where my case stood all along the way. In fact, everyone I worked with at Hartley Lamas Et Al. was very professional and on top of their game. This...

Carla Hartley took care of my daughters divorce. The friendly environment helped my daughter feel at ease. Carla worked with my daughters schedule and made sure she understood everything that needed to be done regarding her divorce. Her compassionate spirit was evident as she walked my daughter through her divorce. She got things done quickly and efficiently. I highly recommended going to this law. You will not be disappointed.

From the moment I communicated with this law firm they provided me with the information I needed to keep my family safe. Going through a divorce can be scary and nerve-racking; however, Carla and her associates reassured me every step of the way. The hardest part in this situation is I, just like everyone else, at first expected this process to go quick and smoothly. Yet, through all the curve-balls thrown at us from the other side, this firm stood...

This firm is outstanding.
