She has helped me so much with getting custody of my daughter and my divorce. She is very understanding and knows, very much, what she is doing. I know that it is very hard for a father to get custody of their child but if you need help doing that or need help with your divorce, she is definitely the person to talk to. She helped me get custody of my daughter and keep all my possessions from my divorce. She truly is a saint and I would definitely recommend and refer her to anyone that is going through a family court case. Shana Black truly is a saint.

Ms. Black got me 50-50 custody of my four year old daughter. I started off with a restraining order against me a year ago. The attorney I had before Mrs.Black told me to forget it, I would never get custody of my daughter. I hired Ms. Black and she fought and got the restraining order dismissed because my wife was lying. Then she got 40% custody for me and now 50%. I would recommend her to anyone.

I was a single mom of two, and needed representation on my custody/support/visitation case. Originally sent to DCSS, she was able to get more support, and set a visitation that would be effective for my kids as well as the non-custodial parent. She was very efficient, incredibly thorough and knowledgeable on Family Law, and aggressively passionate in the courtroom!

I highly recommend this attorney! She is very knowledgeable and she very quickly spots the weaknesses of the other side (my x!). The judge agreed with everything Ms. Black argued in my divorce, and the other attorney seemed bewildered. She has a great work ethic. She is a hard worker, very honest, reliable, and a fighter. She kept me informed throughout the case and got me everything she said she would. I am a very pleased client and if I ever need an attorney again, Ms. Black will be the first I call.

The matter went to court and it was a pleasure to watch Ms. Black demolish the opposing counsel. Every argument they brought up by citing irrelevant cases she countered by citing the correct law and relevant facts. My ex has tried to move out of the State of California twice and each time she was stopped.

Shana is an angel. About 2 years ago, the mother of my children decided to move my kids out of state. Needing a lawyer, a friend of mine recommended Shana. The first time I meet her, I instantly knew she was the right lawyer for me. After an almost two year battle, I have my kids living with me 80% of the time. She has a great, upbeat personality. She is very knowledgeable about the law, and will work really hard on winning your case. She kept in constant contact with me, and even worked late nights, early mornings and weekends. She seems to know a lot of judges and lawyers, and uses that to her advantage. She is very affordable too. I would definitely hire her again, and would not hesitate a bit on recommending her to friends/family; I only wish I had here during my original divorce. Thank you Shana, you are the best!

Shana is amazing both in and out of court. She made sure that all of my questions and concerns were addressed promptly and was quick to bring us to a win with custody of my son. I initially contacted her because I was in a place in my life full of fear and the unknown and had no idea how to go about filing for custody, a restraining order, or anything. She explained everything clearly, precisely, and was by my side every step of the way. Even years after, I can still contact her with questions regarding my case, as well as other legal issues and she always helps me out, even though I no longer am retaining her. I would absolutely recommend Shana to anyone for any sort of family law case, and if I ever ever needed anything in the future, she is the first and only person I would call.

Shana is an intelligent attorney who cares about the needs of families, and is fair and extremely knowledgeable on Family Law. During her representation of my case Shana was "realistic" about my case. She was confident and considerate about what my expectations where regarding custody of my daughter. The real success came after Shana won my case, and the relationship between my daughter & her father was restored despite my fears that he would treat her differently because of the results. In fact it strengthened because of the clear boundaries that were put in place during the hearing, and the transparency after it was over. Our family has truly healed with better communication between both parents and a common goal to raise our daughter in a loving environment. Since then when I have a family law concern that may arise, she is quick to respond whether by text or email. Due to the distance, I retained another attorney, through my employer thinking of saving money and I quickly learned what a huge mistake that was. Despite the disastrous outcome and poor service from the so-called Big Family Law Firm in my new residential area, Shana still was able to offer her professional opinion. Her superior family law counsel helped us accomplish our goals at our last hearing, and the success from that case was astounding!

When you need some good advice to wade through the legal swamp, Shana's the one! She will be there with you and make sure you have good standing against the tyranny of the court system. If you need someone who will fight for you, Ask for Shana!
