Skilled and compassionate guidance through a complex divorce

Helen Cayton at Minyard Morris provided exceptional counsel during my difficult divorce. Her 17 years of general practice experience, particularly her recognized expertise in family law, were invaluable in navigating property division and custody matters. She was thorough, explaining the nuances of California law clearly, and her Chapman University background was evident in her sharp legal reasoning. I always felt she was a strong advocate. While communication response times could occasionally be a day or two, her strategic advice was always worth the wait. I highly recommend her for anyone needing a dedicated and knowledgeable attorney in Newport Beach.
