Michelle Paul was very helpful and so was her assistant Joe. They helped me get through my restraining order case and because of this the restraining order filed against me was dropped. If you are looking for an attorney to assist in your divorce or any type of domestic violence case then she is your go to person.

Michelle Paul was our attorney for our family law case and we found her to be the most hard-working, ethical and morally superior attorney. She worked diligently on our case which has been very high conflict. She has been in constant contact with us and we truly have felt like a team. Michelle has superb oral and written communication skills, in and out of court, and her integrity is unmatched.

Joe, Michelle's lead paralegal, contributed to our case, an incredible wealth of knowledge and experience. His dedication was invaluable and he provided our family safe and stable support.

Standing ovation for Michelle's Family Law Practice.
My wife and I gave Michelle and her legal team a very difficult task to accomplish. I am active duty military and was requesting physical custody of my two children from their mother and on top of that, the approval of the court to move them with my wife and I overseas. Since 2013 I have had 2 attorneys that could not reach the simple mark of fighting for physical custody for me even after all the evidence I had given them as ammunition to fight back. With Michelle and her team, the evidence I gave them was very limited. Seemed like we were going to swim against the current, and we did. Michelle and her team sat down with my wife and I to prepare. We could see their sense of genuine interest towards our case and their honest intention to fight tooth and nail against a very experienced attorney we were facing. Michelle and her Firm constantly showed the quality of amazing human beings they both are each time we sat down to discuss our case. Once the time came, Michelle put on her warrior helmet and stood our ground in front of the judge to fight for us, there's no doubt she is one of the toughest out there in the business. My wife and I were jaw dropped with the aggressiveness yet gentle way of her educated vocabulary to find holes on the opposing team and make them look like rookies in front of the judge. If you got some time to visit their office like my wife and I did, take the chance to do so. You won't regret it!!

Michelle Paul and her firm have been absolutely professional with me. They worked tirelessly to help me with my case. Michelle was determined not to back down when it came to getting me and my Daughter exactly what we were entitled to. Her knowledge of family law just blows me away. Her work ethic is absolutely impeccable! Michelle truly cared about my case and would call just to calm me down. What other attorney would do that? Never a disappointing moment with our representation!

I can’t thank Michelle Paul enough for helping me with my move away case. She is more than just a lawyer . She cares about her clients. She is quick to respond and always has your best interest. She is a real advocate and doesn’t charge you an arm and a leg. We had a open line of communication all the way through. She answered all my questions. I am so glad that I found her using google after reading her reviews. When I meant her at our consultation I knew she was the lawyer I needed to represent me. She even works on Saturdays!

She helped me with a move away case and custody battle. She is very knowledgeable about military law. I got everything I wanted. The move away was denied.

I would recommend Michelle Paul for any one that is looking for a good family law lawyer.

Thank you Michelle !

I spoke with Ms. Paul over the phone regarding a family situation. She was kind, caring, intelligent, knew the legal intricacies and was very willing to help me even though I was not officially her client yet. If/when I need a lawyer, she will be who I go to for help.

I normally do not write reviews but I just had to do one for Michelle Paul. My situation was complicated and trying to find the right attorney, who I could trust to have my best interest at heart was hard. I spoke with a couple of attorneys before I got to Michelle Paul and wished that I could have just found her first. I live in Kentucky and thought I needed an attorney from San Diego to deal with my current situation. The only way to contact her was via phone and email and anytime I had questions she was there. Even though she was not able to assist me with my case I loved that she took the time to listen, she tried to do the best she could and found other options for me and was there until the end. I did not feel like she was just out for the money, felt that she genuinely cared and is very professional. When you speak with her you can tell she knows her ins and outs unlike other attorneys that I spoke with. I would highly recommend her many times over. If I am in need of an attorney and am in the San Diego area, I would definitely look up Michelle Paul again. Thank you so much for all the help.

Michelle Paul is amazing. Divorce is not fun. It is hard, sad, crazy, and heartbreaking, but Michelle walked me through it with support, and compassion with my best interest in mind. Michelle is like the wise older sister reassuring, guiding, and reminding me that we can do hard things. She treated me with utmost respect and knows what she is doing. I highly recommend Michelle. She’s tough, will fight for you, and gets the job done.

Michelle was more than helpful throughout the entire process. She was accommodating, nourishing, and honest. There's no person I'd rather have to help me through my tough legal situation.

To All Who Seek Family Counsel Michelle Paul is the one!! First a big THANK YOU to you Michelle for being there for me throughout my divorce case. You were and ARE professional, knowledgeable, caring, very detailed-oriented and always with a smile. You took on my case with ease and ensured it was resovled in a timely manner. As a military officer, you stood by me and always explained the law in simple terms to me and that means alot to me. At the end of the day, I came out of family court VERY satisfied with my case. As my opening statement reads, anyone whether civilian or military, seeking GREAT legal counsel, Michelle is the one!! Again thank you Michelle for being MY attorney.

I couldn’t be more happy with the outcome of my case. My case was a high conflict case that last well over a year. Extremely stressful for me but Michelle did a lot to help me out that stress. I got everything that I asked for plus some. Through this process I made a friend. She’s amazing and I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Michelle and her team helped me get through a difficult divorce. She carried us through and allowed us to make payments when things got tough to keep our case going. She even did some pro-bono work for us so that we would not have to start from scratch with another attorney when we both moved out of San Diego. My husband could not afford his own attorney and she very ethically provided guidance to both of us to reach an amicable settlement. She acted on my behalf when I was willing to forgo alimony to wrap things up and acted in my best interests to secure it for me. You will not find a better team to handle your divorce. I hope I never have to go through this again, but if I do, Michelle will be my first call. I can't thank her enough!!

I can't say enough! Michelle gave me an understanding how a divorce works and then led me through the steps, and hearings involved to complete it. I was open with her, and she with me.
I gave her a present when were were finished. 8^)

Michelle is way more than just a lawyer, she truly has a passion for justice and fighting for what is right. She worked diligently on my divorce and child custody battle and I was awarded exactly what I wanted in a timely manner.

Michelle and her paralegal Joe make an outstanding team! They are both experts in all the current laws associated with active duty military cases.

You want them fighting for your rights!!!

Michelle is a great lawyer along with her team. Michelle is someone who I trusted with our military move away case and I would recommend to family and friends since she listens to your concerns and is always available to answer questions. She is trustworthy and demonstrates a genuine concern for your case. From my initial consultation, she took her time and never felt rushed. I had consulted with other attorneys but did not receive the same treatment and respect as I did with Michelle. She thoroughly explained the court process for our case since it became a very complex case and was with us through it all. I highly recommend Michelle and her team.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! Worked relentlessly to make sure that my family's best interest was at the top of her list. I honestly couldn't of made it without her and her legal team by my side.

I will Forever be grateful for the Support, Respect , Trust & Tenacity of both Michelle and Joe during one of the most difficult times in my life. The team Michelle Paul has is the best one could ask for during anything you are going through legally. I love them both for the things they did for me and the way they treated me like family. The Outcome was everything they had told me , No Suprises...GRATITUDE AND LOVE ALWAYS.....

It's been a long road, but I had a good driver. Couldn't have arrived here without my team!

I can't say thank you enough for the outstanding service I received. I'm active duty military stationed on the east coast and the Law Office of Michelle Paul made everything so easy and convenient for me and worked with me on my schedule. They go the extra mile and I'm so pleased with them. They made a difficult time much easier to handle.
