I couldn't be more pleased with the result
I filed for divorce after 20 years of marriage. I hired Lass Law to represent me and couldn't be more pleased with the result. Amy gave me confidence immediately in our first interaction, and I felt very supported as she and her team addressed all of my questions. What I appreciated most was that she and her staff are settlement-based, meaning they want to get to settlement as quickly as possible. They do not try to drag things out, and they propose strategies and reasonable tradeoffs to get through the process as seamlessly as possible.
I highly recommend Lass Law if you are contemplating a divorce and are looking for a firm that will work at your speed to come to an amicable solution. Amy operates with high ethical standards and is an energetic partner through the process.

They Had My Back 100 Percent
I am on the tail end of what proved to be the most challenging experience of my life. I divorced a man intent on destroying me financially and emotionally, and if it weren’t for Lass Law he may have succeeded. I went through three other law firms before finding Amy Lass and Mekyla Robinson and soon realized I had FINALLY found the grit and competency I had searched for to get this done. First of all, they are responsive like no other firm I experienced. Emails ALWAYS get answered… same day. With previous attorneys, emails seemed to fall into a black hole. Mekyla was my main point of contact, and she always handled the issues my ex created with efficiency, competence, and professionalism. Her writing skills are EXCEPTIONAL. The supplemental declaration and briefing Mekyla prepared were flawless documents, persuasive and factual, and far exceeded anything prepared for me by previous attorneys. Her mediation brief painted such an accurate picture for the judge of all that had transpired, which made me feel heard and so validated. Both Amy and Mekyla had my back 100 percent of the time. Unlike my experience with other firms, I finally felt protected, which I desperately needed after feeling unsafe for so many years. Most importantly, they got this high-conflict divorce successfully settled in mediation! I thought for sure we would have to go to trial, but they were fantastic and saved me about a year of stress and thousands of dollars!! I highly recommend this team!!
Kristi Holliday

Distinctive Excellence and Professionalism
After a recommendation from another exceptional attorney, I entrusted Amy Lass and her team with the four most important things for me in my divorce case. She delivered on all of them, with distinctive excellence and professionalism. I would trust her and her team again in the things that matter most to me, without hesitation.
Timothy Anderson
A big THANK YOU to Amy Lass and crew
A big THANK YOU to Amy Lass and crew for efficiently gathering the loose ends and driving to an agreement in my divorce that dragged on far too long prior to retaining Lass Law. Highly recommend!

The Entire Team at Lass Law Is Above Reproach
The entire team at Lass Law is above reproach. I had the pleasure of working with Mekyla Robinson, who was able to successfully deliver everything I asked for, thereby protecting myself and my children. She is professional, compassionate, and a fighter. I have impossibly high expectations, and she exceeded them. I am grateful for Mekyla and everyone at Lass Law, and I enthusiastically recommend them for your legal needs.
Kimberly Garnier
Incredibly Grateful for Lass Law
I’m incredibly grateful for Lass Law and especially Associate Attorney Mekyla Robinson.
Back in January, when everything felt urgent and overwhelming, they stepped in immediately. Their quick action and steady guidance helped stabilize the situation and, most importantly, kept my daughter and me together. They worked diligently to make sure she was brought back home to me and that her stability was protected during a very stressful time.
Throughout this process, I’ve felt supported, prepared, and informed. Mekyla is calm, professional, and highly strategic in court. She advocates firmly while keeping the focus where it belongs, that being on the best interests of the child. I never felt like just another case; I felt heard and genuinely represented.
I’m incredibly thankful and blessed for the work they’ve done and the way they’ve handled one of the most high-stakes chapters of my life.
Giovanni Fernandez
An Exceptional Litigator
Amy Lass is an exceptional litigator. She is sharp, emotionally astute, confident, strategic, and incredibly well-prepared in court. She understands how to present a case clearly and persuasively, and she anticipates opposing arguments several steps ahead. She has killer resources at her disposal in the family law community and will connect you with whichever experts and consultants you need to prepare your case. Watching her advocate was both reassuring and impressive.
Just as important, Amy and her team are always there for you. Someone will return your call, answer your questions, and make sure you feel supported throughout the process. That level of responsiveness and professionalism truly sets her apart.
I’m deeply grateful for her advocacy and highly recommend her to anyone facing complex family law litigation.
Michelle Powers
One of the best decisions I made
Working with Lass Law was one of the best decisions I made during what could have been an incredibly stressful time. From the very first consultation, the entire team was professional, compassionate, and genuinely invested in my well-being and outcome.
A special shoutout to Brooke, their Director of Operations and Certified Divorce Coach, who is absolutely exceptional. She kept everything running smoothly, was always warm and responsive, and made me feel welcome and cared for every step of the way. It's clear she takes real pride in making sure clients have the best possible experience.
Mekyla, Sarah, and Beth each brought their own expertise and care to the process, and it showed at every turn. They took the time to truly understand my situation and explained every step in plain language. I never felt confused or left in the dark. They were thorough, communicative, and always kept my long-term goals at the forefront.
What truly sets Lass Law apart is that even Amy, as the owner and lead attorney, was personally involved and always there when it mattered most. It says a lot about the culture she has built that she remains so hands-on and accessible to her clients, rather than simply delegating everything to her team.
The combination of legal expertise, warmth, and dedication across the entire team made all the difference. I walked away feeling heard, supported, and exceptionally well-represented.
I would highly recommend Lass Law to anyone navigating family law matters. From Brooke keeping everything on track to Mekyla, Sarah, Beth, and Amy leading with skill and compassion, this is a team that truly cares.

Lass Law Is Amazing
Lass Law is amazing. I’m a lawyer, and Amy is one of the best family law attorneys in the state, let alone San Diego. Jessica, her associate, was always on top of everything, and I never really even had to think about it, which was a massive help in navigating what is already a very stressful process. When I did have questions, they were answered quickly and thoroughly.
I have referred a significant number of people to Amy and Jess and always hear nothing but positive things. They are truly one of the best family law firms in the state.
Thanks, guys, for everything.
Liam Perry
Lass Law Is Outstanding
I cannot say enough positive things about Lass Law and their exceptional team. Amy and her entire staff, especially Brooke, exemplify professionalism at the highest level. They are consistently punctual, detail-oriented, and highly responsive, which makes a meaningful difference in complex legal matters.
What truly sets Lass Law apart is their resolution-oriented approach and their ability to collaborate effectively, even in high-conflict cases. Amy demonstrates a balance of strategic thinking, calm leadership, and practical problem-solving. She keeps the focus on outcomes rather than escalation and ensures communication remains clear, purposeful, and centered on achieving the best possible result.
Equally important, Lass Law operates with integrity. They do not take advantage of clients. While they are a higher-end firm, you truly get what you pay for: experience, efficiency, and honesty. Amy is direct and refreshingly candid. She sets realistic expectations, cuts through emotion, and provides grounded, straightforward guidance so clients can make informed decisions without false promises.
If you are looking for a law firm that is professional, ethical, and results-driven, especially in high-conflict situations, Lass Law is outstanding.

I can't recommend Lass Law highly enough
I can’t recommend Lass Law highly enough. From day one the team was efficient, clear, and completely no-nonsense—exactly what you need when everything else feels chaotic. Amy is brilliant, razor-sharp on the law, and honest in a way that actually empowers you: she’ll tell you the risks straight up and won’t let you spend money on fluff. Brooke was my coach through the painful parts—a calming, perceptive guide who helped me make hard decisions. And Mekyla jumped in at the end and instantly made me feel supported. The law isn't her only expertise; she’s calm, compassionate, and thorough.
They delivered results and did it with integrity. I’m thrilled Lass Law settled my case—waking up the next morning and not calling Lass Law felt like freedom. If you want smart, honest representation without the drama, this is the team to hire.

An uncontested divorce occurs when both parties agree on all terms, including property division, child custody, and support, making the process relatively quicker and less costly.
What if my spouse does not want a divorce?
If your spouse does not want a divorce, you can still file. The court will likely have a hearing, but a divorce can be granted even without mutual agreement if the marriage is irretrievably broken.
How is child custody determined in a divorce?
Child custody is determined based on the child's best interests, considering factors like the child's age, health, emotional ties, the parents' lifestyle, and the child's preference, if they're old enough.
Can I change my name during the divorce process?
Yes, you can request a name change as part of the divorce process. The court will include it in the final divorce decree, making your name change official.
