A consummate professional who guided me through a difficult divorce

Navigating a high-conflict divorce after 22 years of marriage was overwhelming. From our first consultation, Belinda Hanson’s 35 years of experience in family law were evident. She combined her deep legal knowledge, particularly in mediation—which aligns with her recent Lawyer of the Year recognition—with genuine compassion. Belinda and her team at Hanson Crawford Crum expertly managed complex asset division and a challenging custody schedule. Her strategic guidance from her San Mateo office was always clear, pragmatic, and focused on a stable future. The outcome was fair and allowed me to move forward with dignity. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone facing a serious family law matter.
