Client Testimonials

I turned to Nate Reyes to help salvage my parental case, and I'm incredibly grateful I did. From the start, he was direct, resourceful, and deeply knowledgeable. Nate didn't try to nickel and dime me--he focused on what really mattered and made sure I was taken care of. He not only handled the legal side with confidence and precision, but he also supported me through the emotional ups and downs that come with any family law case. He's the kind of attorney who genuinely cares and doesn't back down when things get tough. If you're looking for someone who will stand with you and fight for you with integrity, Nate is that attorney.

I chose to work with Melissa Bruett's office after reading positive reviews and seeing their website emphasize an understanding of the mental health impact of divorce--a perspective I truly valued as a therapist. Unfortunately, my experience did not reflect this and was not a positive one. I was initially told my divorce would likely be resolved in a couple of months and would most likely stay within or near the retainer fee. In reality, it took 4-5 months longer and ended up costing $2,000-$3,000 beyond the initial retainer. I had no children or significant shared assets--only a jointly owned home that was sold in January. I made an error in not communicating the sale date promptly, due to the chaos of the holidays and a major move, but the response I received was anything but empathetic. I was met with very little understanding and shame for not communicating this. Communication about the legal process was minimal, and the support I expected during such a vulnerable time was simply not there. After raising concerns, I was offered a $250 reduction, yet I continue to be billed for that amount months after the divorce finalized. I truly hope my experience was an exception, but I did not feel supported, informed, or cared for during a very difficult chapter in my life. I would recommend looking into other firms that better align with the compassionate, client-centered values they claim to offer.

Our family went through a very difficult time losing our family members a year a part. Jonathan Thornton was compassionate and empathetic throughout our ordeal. The two years were an extremely difficult time for us. Grief is work and Jonathan was open in recognizing how paralyzing a loss can be. Jonathan and his partners and staff were great at helping us with Estate Matters and the sale of our home, so we could move forward in life. He is a good person and kind and one of the best attorney's I have ever met. If you are in need of legal guidance, Brett, Reyes & Thornton LLC will not disappoint. Thank you, Jonathan.

We received a recommendation for Bruett, Reyes, and Thornton. Jonathan Thornton did our will and trust. He spent an hour on the phone explaining EVERYTHING to us. We contacted other folks that really shrugged us off after 5 minutes. I feel very confident in his ability and his guidance. Met everyone in the office. They are young, dedicated lawyers. I highly recommend them. I am so happy that we got the opportunity to meet and work with him!
