  Humane Legal Warriors Veronica came billed by her referrals as “a real bulldog” though occasionally hard to reach due to high demand. In consultation she quickly grasped my situation with a few pointed questions. In court, where opposing counsel showboated or exaggerated, Veronica was calm, matter-of-fact, almost conversational. This was unnerving at first, but after our first couple rulings (favorable), I saw the other attorneys’ performances as aimed at clients, not the judges. Veronica doesn’t perform or exaggerate; She deals in facts that matter to the court, and delivers. When opposing counsel misrepresented events or twisted my statements, Veronica was quick to object sharply. I did not find her hard to reach: She seems to monitor e-mail at all hours, replying on weekends and holidays when necessary. Amy, her Chief Managing Paralegal, is fantastic - Sharp, tough, efficient, quick to recognize strategic value of details, and empathetic when needed (I needed a lot of reassurance). Divorce is awful enough, but the opacity and pace of the legal system is terrifying when family and financial matters seem to hinge on every ruling. Amy did a great job of keeping events in context of the law and our strategy, advising me on what to expect, and preparing me for each next step. She was responsive even when clearly managing a heavy case load. Working closely with her, I found myself fascinated by the process, and as another reviewer relates, at times even enjoying it. Both of them can be abrupt, perhaps an occupational hazard which I found intimidating, but came to recognize as ultimately in my best interest by not wasting time on what wasn’t material or legally advantageous. Both could also quickly switch tone when I made clear my nerves were frayed. Their small adjustments and spontaneous offerings of compassionate perspective helped me trust they were honoring their fiduciary role, and actually cared about the outcome for me and my family, not just for their scorecard. As my case unfolded, that trust was rewarded with results. Despite the opposing party hiring a big firm and spending over twice what I paid in legal fees, the court ruled decidedly in my favor at nearly every hearing, and we settled with a very reasonable financial division. Most importantly, what Veronica, Amy, and their team secured for me is beyond valuation: A fair custody arrangement, and the legal protection throughout a very contentious divorce to enable me to live my life and enjoy some of the best family moments I’ve had in years. I feel unbelievably fortunate to have had Veronica, Amy, and their team represent and guide me through an otherwise very trying ordeal.

  The Attorney Who Makes You Feel Unbeatable I had never worked with an attorney before and I was honestly terrified. From our very first consultation, Veronica gave me something I didn’t even realize I needed... calm, clarity, and real confidence that I would be taken care of no matter what. She has this rare combination of calm presence and direct confidence. She understands how judges think and react. Talking to her feels like a rehearsal for court... she walks you through scenarios so clearly that you start to feel grounded and prepared instead of scared. For the first time, I genuinely believed that if I had to go to court, I would win. Veronica is solid, transparent, direct, and absolutely no BS. If you are doing something stupid, she will tell you. And that’s exactly what I wanted... no filters, no sugarcoating, no wasted time. Just truth and strategy. Her team works around the clock... and so does she. She answered my emails in minutes, not hours. She held my hand through every single step of the process. She deeply respects your time and your emotional bandwidth. Nothing is done “just because.” Everything has purpose. After the first mediation, something I never expected happened... I actually started to enjoy the process of moving through the divorce. That says everything. It was truly an honor and a privilege to be Veronica’s client. Her team is a dream team. I could not have asked for better support.

I am deeply appreciative to have such remarkable individuals supporting me during this challenging period. They are undeniably the best!

  I hired Ms. Freitas for a complicated divorce case from a 30-year marriage after seeing positive Google reviews. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. I later read that she review gates, and from my experience, it appears this may be true. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Ms. Freitas for complex divorce cases. She doesn’t listen, is unprepared and sticks to her agenda, not what is best for her client. Her communication was inconsistent. Important emails were not read before calls, and I often received multiple, confusing responses from different team members. I spoke with Veronica twice; the initial consultation 1.5 years before and a useless phone call 2 days prior to mediation where she berated and lectured me instead of discussing my concerns. Veronica’s preparation for mediation was lacking. I had to review materials myself with the mediator, as Ms. Freitas had not read the opposing counsel’s documents. Billing was unclear and included charges from unidentified staff. When I raised concerns, Veronica became defensive, stating she was cheaper than most attorneys and I should be grateful.

  V. Freitas is a smart attorney who's very good at her job. She and her associates helped me in my divorce case and I couldn't be more pleased with the advice, level of attention and the results. She did not sugar coat things and helped me see how things would go in reality. She helped me pick the best route which at the end cost me less and got me the best results I could ask for. I talked to several attorneys before choosing V. Freitas Law and looking back I think I could have paid much more and I can't imagine getting better results.
