I can't say enough about how amazing Amy Lass has been through my divorce process. She made me feel like I really had a good friend on my side. Extremely professional and always had fair and good advice.
You always hear people say that the lawyers are the only ones that win in a divorce but this wasn't the case with Amy. She was always quick to respond, straight to the point and was continually respectful and aware of the time we were spending on things so we weren't running the clock when we didn't need to. If you're looking for a Family Law Attorney, I highly recommend Amy and her team. I can't imagine anyone better. Caring, respectful and professional are the words that come to mind as it relates to her.
Hiring Amy Lass is the best thing I ever did regarding custody of my kids!!! She is a mother herself so she completely understood my needs and wants. She's hard nosed and doesn't let other lawyers push her around. If you tell her what you want she fights for it as if they are her kids!!...If I need to get a hold of them they always pick up the phone. During a very stressful and sad time, Amy gave me something to look forward to!!
Amy Lass is the person to hire when you want a complicated divorce to find its best ending. She is realistic, professional, efficient, and creative -- especially when faced with the other party in the case delaying every stage of the process. Highly respected by local judges, her briefs clearly led the way to closure so my family can move on. So grateful for her help!
No one wants to be in the difficult position of getting a divorce but Amy and her team made the process so much easier! After calling her office for help, she quickly went to work & got all of my paperwork filed with the courts extremely quickly. From start to finish, she made this complicated process simple and as painless as possible. Amy is professional, efficient and empathetic. I would highly recommend her and her team to anyone in a similar position; in fact, I already told my friend to contact her team about his divorce. Life is hard enough as it is -- make it a little bit easier and less complicated by hiring and having Amy and her team on your side.
Amy Lass is great to work with! She provided good guidance through my child support request and was fantastic in negotiating. We had a fairly amicable situation, but it was complicated. She looked at it from every angle and was able to negotiate on my behalf for a fair outcome. Frankly I was grateful to be sitting next to her while the attorneys discussed each item and used law terms that were above my understanding...I knew she was fighting for me and had my absolute best interest at heart. I would highly recommend her services in an amicable or contentious divorce.
If you are looking for the BEST family law attorney in San Diego, look no further. Amy Lass is the BEST! Amy went above and beyond to bring closure to a long and messy custody battle. She does a great job of explaining all of the complex legal information in a way that was easy to process and understand. She was not only respected by the Judges and staff at the North County Court, San Diego but Amy is held in high regard by the opposing counsel in court as well. I would not hesitate to use Amy to represent me in the future.
Family court is very scary, and the process can feel overwhelming. Amy Lass and Sarah Newhouse... have been the best support. Amy is direct and clear and she is in your corner. She is responsive and helps you navigate these very dark waters with a natural lightness. She takes her work seriously and it is clear her clients are important to her. It is obvious that to her it is much more than a job - she cares... and when you are fighting for your children, what you want and need so badly is someone who knows the system to care. Highly recommend.
Amy Lass and her team took over my case from another firm after several months of spinning wheels and little movement and immediately shined a hope filled light into what felt like a pretty dismal situation. The opposing counsel was well known for bullying tactics and fee raising strategies and Amy knew exactly how to handle her and get us on a smart path forward. Amy has a highly effective team who jumped in and got the job done right and fast. They are amazing! Within a few short months we got to mediation and settled! Overall, the service I received...was stellar! Yes, that means top 1% - better than outstanding!

We understand that seeking legal representation can raise various questions. Below are some of the most frequently asked questions we get.
Legal custody refers to the authority to make major decisions about a child’s life, such as education, healthcare, and religious upbringing. Physical custody determines where the child lives and who is responsible for their day-to-day care. Both can be shared (joint custody) or awarded to one parent (sole custody), depending on what the court deems to be in the child’s best interests.
Child support is calculated based on state-specific guidelines that consider factors such as each parent’s income, the number of children, custody arrangements, and the child’s specific needs. Courts may also factor in healthcare costs, childcare expenses, and educational needs when determining the payment amount.
Yes, in many states, grandparents can petition for visitation rights. The court will evaluate the nature of the relationship, the child’s best interests, and whether visitation will provide emotional and psychological benefits to the child. However, parental rights typically take precedence.
To modify a custody or support order, you must file a petition with the court that issued the original order. You’ll need to demonstrate a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, relocation, or changes in the child’s needs, to justify the modification.
Distribution laws. Community property states divide marital assets equally, while equitable distribution states divide assets fairly but not necessarily equally, based on factors like each spouse’s contributions, earning potential, and financial needs.
