These comments were made by fellow attorneys during the annual nomination process.
“Amber Shemesh is a talented, knowledgable attorney who helps her clients get great results without having to resort to dumb tactics that just run up attorney's fees. She knows how to negotiate based on the law and reality to get great results for her clients without having to go to court, but she does well if she has to go to court. She understands the real best way to practice family law and doesn't play into the nonsense or the drama. She gets to the point and gets cases resolved in a healthy way. She's a very good attorney and great to work with. I always know when she's on the other side that we'll get the case settled and it will cost less money for both of our clients - which is a great thing! Top notch attorney.”
