Since I have worked with several attorneys in Southern California, I have no hesitation in recommending this law firm. My initial consultation with Shannon was so informative and she was 100% honest with me about where my high conflict custody case stood and where it needed to go. I am very grateful to my attorney, Steven Brumer and team, for their exceptional attention to detail, informativeness, and dedication to my case. Ultimately, Steven was able to secure the best possible resolution for my case, all without requiring me to go to trial. My child's best interests were always at the forefront of his decisions and he provided me with guidance and advice I can continue to use throughout this journey of parenting. If there is one thing I've learned over the years, it's that you really get what you pay for with attorneys. I 100% recommend Steven for any custody case.

It's not easy to combine pragmatism with something as personal as family law. Maria Spear has a unique ability to clearly and quickly distill empirical truth from the excess information and emotion that tend to muddy the waters of family and custody litigation. Unfortunately, it took an an extensive trial and error process to find this group. Heine is quoted saying "Experience is a good school. But the fees are high." As someone who is not big on online reviews, I'm writing this in thought of the next person who experiences the pains and uncertainty of this process: there is no substitute for excellent legal counsel when your family affairs' are in jeopardy. Cage & Mills is an excellent firm.

I can't even put into words how amazing Jaime and her team were to me. I'm in tears writing this because I will forever be so thankful for their help. They worked hard on my case and were always keeping me informed on any changes or details of my case. They genuinely really do care about their clients and it's shows! It's always scary trying to find someone you can trust with your case but Jaime, Karen and the rest of the team made me feel secure about letting them handle my case.

My attorney was extremely knowledgeable and explained every detail of my case. I loved my experience with Vanessa Gomez and her team

Jaime and her team were the best ever!! Given the nature of this very traumatic and confusing experience, Jaime and her team explained every detail so you could make sense of it all. They made very feel safe, throughout all the uncertainty. They were always available to answer a question and or pull you off the ledge! My divorce worked out exactly as they planned. If you need a lawyer then do yourself a big favor and have Jaime Cage and her team totally look after you! It will be the smartest decision you will ever make. Thank You Jaime and team.

It is not easy to leave a review regarding such a personal matter, but I know that when it comes to issues of vital importance, everyone wants to find the best to help them. I feel compelled to share my experience on finding the right family law attorney during one of the most painful times of my life because I didn't have many friends who went through an acrimonious divorce and child custody fight. Through incredible luck, I found Avi Levy at Cage & Miles.My case was emotionally charged, legally complex, and at times felt overwhelming. The opposing counselor wanted to bury me, not with facts but with the overwhelming cost of defending myself. Avi navigated the legal landscape with remarkable skill and brought a level of compassion, clarity, and professionalism that made me feel protected and empowered throughout the process.What truly sets Avi apart is his ability to think two steps ahead. He anticipated the next move at every turn--not just reacting to what was in front of us, but planning several moves in advance. He kept me from overreacting and counseled me to stay strategic. He made a massive difference in my case, especially when emotions were high and the stakes were even higher.In court and at depositions, Avi is relentless in the best possible way. He is composed, focused, and incredibly effective--even when facing aggressive and unyielding opposing counsel. He never backed down and never stopped fighting for me. He knew exactly when to push, when to hold back, and how to present the facts so the judge would hear my perspective.I was always impressed when Avi arrived at court with a full recollection of my case, with no details missing. His highly adept team also tracked many back and forths and countless documents accurately.From the beginning, Avi believed my position was winable even though other attorneys were less optimistic. He took the time to explain the process and ensured everyone on his team gave me adequate time to prepare, respond, and obtain the support I needed. They were never slow to follow up and always stayed on schedule. Their communication was always clear, and their replies to my questions were on point.We prevailed on every significant issue in my case. Without a doubt, Avi's expertise, tenacity, and unwavering dedication made that possible. He is strategic, sharp, confident, and incredibly well respected in the courtroom. He was present, available, attentive, and on top of every filing deadline, court appearance, and negotiation. He was always prepared, professional, and persuasive; his excellent reputation worked to my advantage.If you're going through a divorce or custody battle and need someone who will fight righteously for you, hire Avi Levy. I am so grateful that he was in my corner.

Excellent, professional service.

Hi - I am eternally grateful for Traci Hoppes and her team at Cage & Miles - on the contrary of being a divorce attorney, she has saved our marriage. Traci is a CFLS (Certified Family Law Specialist) with an abundance of experience and expertise in her field of practice. She is also gifted with her experience and understanding of addiction and how to navigate these troubled waters. She has saved my young children from harm's way, and this is not a debt in which I can repay. Traci has forced my wife to look at herself and made her accountable for her actions, this in turn has brought about her sobriety and her joining AA. She is two years sober now and still working on herself. I am proud of her and her continued sobriety. Thank you again, Traci all the best to you!

I was referred to Cage & Miles by a friend, and went in for a consultation with Jaime Cage. I knew right away it was a good fit. Jaime listened carefully, answered all my questions, and was very helpful and supportive. Throughout the whole process, she and her support staff were always there if I had a question or concern. I really appreciate all the did for me! I would highly recommend Jaime Cage

I could not recommend Cage & Miles enough. I was involved in a tough custody case, Christina Alkire and Brenda Rozynek were there for me every step of the way.

I consulted with Mehry Mohseni regarding a difficult situation that my elderly father is involved in. She took the time to read the details of the situation, listened to my questions and provided a great deal of helpful information. I found her to be very knowledgeable, and we will definitely be choosing her to represent my dad should he decide to move forward. The first attorney I consulted with didn't even take the time to read my summary of the situation, and gave me misinformation! I am very grateful to Mehry for helping us figure out how to proceed.

I hired Avi Levy for a post-judgment enforcement matter after my ex refused to follow through with key parts of our divorce judgment. The issues were complicated--property division tied up in foreign assets and tax obligations that weren't straightforward at all. I needed an attorney who could handle both the emotional intensity and the legal complexity of the situation. Avi was exactly that person. He took the time to understand every detail, including the difficult financial and cross-border tax elements that most lawyers would shy away from. Avi didn't flinch. He was clear, strategic, and incredibly thorough in building my case. It was obvious early on that he knew how to navigate complex issues and present them in a way the court could follow. Avi fought hard for me--especially in court. Opposing counsel was aggressive and dismissive, but Avi held the line. He was composed, prepared, and persuasive. He didn't let anything slide, and I knew I had someone in my corner who was just as invested in getting justice as I was. What I appreciated most was that Avi never made false promises. He was honest about what was realistic, but he never used that as an excuse to give up. He pushed forward, stayed focused, and got me the best possible outcome under very tough circumstances. If you're dealing with a complex post-judgment case, Avi is the attorney you want. He's smart, relentless, and knows how to handle even the messiest situations with skill and integrity. I truly can't thank him enough.

VANESSA and TANIA are awesome. First time being in a custody battle and they were able to answer all my questions and give me a piece of mind. When my court day came VANESSA was able to get me exactly what she had said she could get me when it came to custody. She went into that court room and argued my case with confidence. I walked out on my very first court day with my case resolved and exactly with the outcome I wanted. She’s awesome and will definitely refer her. Her and Tania work wonderful together and are very easy to get a hold of and respond quickly.

Jaime & Shannon did a great job for me. I always felt like I knew what was going on with my case and like they listened to what I wanted. A few times I was pretty upset about my case and Jaime explained everything to me so I could understand and calm down. It's amazing how much they know off of the top of their heads. They are great attorneys and people, and I would recommmend them to anyone else in a heart beat.

My lawyer, Tracey Hoppes was incredibly empathetic, responsive, and caring in such a busy time for her, and always made me feel like a priority.

Our experience with Steven Brummer was excellent. We were working through a stressful situation but Steven and his team were so helpful and completely put us at ease. Everything was well explained and we knew we were in good hands. Thank you Steven.

Divorce is a messy business and not always pleasant. Shannon Miles was very knowledgable and matter of fact (which I really appreciated). Her team at Cage & Miles were easy to work with, professional, thorough, and cared about providing a good experience for their clients. I appreciate all of their hard work and follow up to get my divorce finalized. I would recommend them if you need a good lawyer.

My review is for my experience with John Sylvester. John is a top tier attorney all around. He is an excellent advocate and has in depth knowledge of family law issues. He is also excellent in court--very persuasive, well-prepared, organized, and detailed oriented. He is kind, professional, and fair with billing. He was honest with me when I was faced with a hard litigation decision and never took advantage of me for additional fees. I highly recommend John if you need an attorney who is honest and compassionate, well-versed in the law, and excels in the courtroom.

Great firm. They have been over the top exceptional! I have a "high conflict" case and Jaime has been amazing with every tantrum my ex throws our way. They are also knowledgeable about personality disorders which are helpful in my case. Jaime and Shannon take the time to explain the divorce process and help make a smooth transition for you and your family.

Deanne Arthur is like a quiet tiger in the storm--calm, strategic, and relentless. She was my second attorney in a complex case involving international law, and she cut through the noise, closed loopholes I hadn't even considered, and kept the court focused on facts and not family law politics. If you need a lawyer who stays steady under pressure and fights smart, she's the one.

I can’t recommend Avi Levy enough. He represented me during an extremely difficult and toxic divorce and was a constant source of strength and professionalism. Thanks to his expertise and commitment, I was awarded full legal and physical custody of my children, which was my greatest priority. Throughout the process, Avi was always available to answer my questions, guide me through every step, and ensure I felt supported. I knew I was in excellent hands, and his skill and dedication truly made a difference during one of the hardest times in my life. If you need someone who will fight for you and put your needs first, Avi is the one to trust.

I would give 1000 stars if I could! Jillian Duggan-Herd is the BEST! She and her firm handled my child custody matter with determination, fierceness and FOUGHT for me and my kids. The empathy for her clients is top notch and the knowledge she and the staff have was unmatched in the courtroom. I retained her firm twice and will do so again if need be. I had retained 2 lawyers prior to her and I wish I found Jillian sooner!!! Her firm is the ONLY one I trust. Thank you Jillian!!!

They are very good company to deal with the family law, I had Mehry Mohseni and Stephanie they did an awesome job. They will let you know what is going on in your case, help you how the court works and put you in the picture when you go inside the court what you expect to happen. They will prepare you for your court day very well.I’ll recommend them to anyone going through these kind of problems they will do their best for you.

Amazing experience with the entire group of ppl here for a process that isn’t always the best circumstances . They worked super hard and I alwys felt like I was their top priority. Thank you so much!!

I was represented by Jaime and Mehry. I moved and decided to get a lawyer in SD county instead of keeping my lawyers from IE. The best decision ever!!!! They are very professional and respond very quickly. They are very confident in court and thats what you need. I seen lawyers who are lost for words or fumble. They are fierce!! Thank you so much for all your help. Keeping my family safe and getting my restraining order renewed for another 5 years. This is very difficult task to do. I am keeping them in retainer just in case.....

I was involved in a highly complex and exhaustive family law case over the last couple years. Jillian Dugan-Herd was my 2nd attorney and thanks to her it's finally over! She is honest, fair, intelligent, professional, kind, unbelievably fierce and highly respected not only by the judge but also her colleagues (I saw that 1st hand). She's quite simply a bad-ass. Other attorneys were coming out of the attorney room telling me how hard she was fighting for me. I was humbled by and grateful for her intense dedication to my case and her incredible ability to argue on my behalf. She never gave up! I was wholly represented and no words will ever fully express my gratitude! My case was not an easy one and the results she got me were fair but also life changing. I know I would not have gotten the results I got with any other attorney. Listen to her, she will not steer you in the wrong direction. She has your & your children's best interest at heart.

Cage & Miles provided the best service for my divorce. Not only did counsel, Jillian- Duggan Herd help me with a very difficult ex-husband, she was successful in navigating his narcassitic tactics. The support LaTosha, Robert, and Andrea are proficient in what they do. I can express my gratitude for having such a knowleable and understanding team. Defiantly recommend Cage & Miles for your legal needs.

I cannot say enough good things about Maria and Cinthia and the firm! After a terrible experience with another firm who constantly had me working with different people, never following up with me, and dragging my case out for over a year, costing me so much money, I was discouraged to say the least. I came here where they listened to me, always got back to me quickly, and charged me fairly! Thanks to Maria listening to me and working with me, she got my case settled and got me everything I wanted within a few months of me switching to her as my lawyer. This firm helped me feel like I got my life back and they were such a blessing. They always communicated efficiently and I couldn't recommend a better firm!

My ex is a total asshole, I can't thank Cage & Miles enough for putting him in his place and helping me and my daughter get out of a really bad situation. Use Cage & Miles if your husband thinks he can take advantage of you!

My experience with Cage and Miles has been exceptional. Going through an incredibly difficult life change has been considerably easier knowing and experiencing the benefit of having legal representation that I can trust. Shannon, Jaime, and the entire staff have been outstanding. I highly recommend seeking help from Cage and Miles!!!

Fantastic experience with the firm. I was represented by Jamie Learakos and she did an amazing job which resulted in outcome beyond what I expected in my family case. She is very thorough and was extremely professional in helping me understand the process and expectations from start to finish. Highly recommend.

I utilized Steven Brumer at Cage and Miles to navigate me through a very difficult divorce. Steven was both highly knowledgeable and professional and made certain that I was well informed throughout the process. I would definitely recommend his services.

I had Naomi Fribourg handle my case through Cage and Miles firm. Naomi did an excellent job representing me. Naomi was there for any questions I had. I am satisfied with the outcome. I will highly recommend Naomi for anyone. Carlos Lopez

Jaime is amazing! She was a referral from a friend and she took care of my needs during my divorce. What was amazing was that her consultation was free and never felt pushed to use services. As everyone knows divorce is tough enough and feel Jaime was sensitive to that. As a Christian I am always looking for kind and good people. Jaime is not only been so kind but as a Christian she made it easy and less scary for me. I can only say I was blessed to have her as my attorney. Even if your not Christian, kind people is important to this service. I highly recommend this office to everyone. Carrol

Steven Brumer is an excellent communicator and a very efficient attorney. His expertise and experience enable quick results and resolution.

If you're considering Cage & Miles and have the opportunity to work with John Sylvester, proceed with Confidence! John is a fantastic lawyer. I recently had an issue that required 4 lawyers across 2 states and John was by far the best of all of them. Not only is his knowledge of the law and the court's procedural processes unparalleled but his level of detail, "bedside manner," and investment of time to make sure you're prepared and updated make him a delight to work with. I cannot recommend John and the Cage & Miles team highly enough to do him/them justice for the experience and effort they'll bring to your case. My recommendation: proceed with confidence!

I am highly appreciative of Ms. Duggan-Herd's representation in my child custody case. With thoroughness and empathy, she tackled negotiations that were overwhelming and upsetting. Thank you, Jillian, for your work!

We worked with Steven Brumer on a case recently and throughout the process he was attentive and quick to respond to any of our questions. Highly recommend this firm!

I would like to take this opportunity to share with you what a skilled, professional and valued partner you have in Jillian. Jillian has been my attorney throughout the last 6 years and has helped me through one of the most challenging times of my life. From a legal standpoint, Jillian is absolutely amazing. Her depth of knowledge of family law, written and verbal communication skills and ability to navigate a variety of legal situations are unmatched. She has the unique ability to be objective, aggressive and unyielding, yet still maintain a pleasant professionalism that endears other attorneys, courtroom staff and judges to her as well. I have personally witnessed this each time we have been in court together. However, all of that is not even what makes Jillian so great. Jillian is an authentically caring individual. She incorporates a true personal side to what she does. She sees the human side to her client, what they are going through and the impact it has on their lives. She has counseled me through personal aspects of my case many times throughout the past 6 years. I have never left a conversation with Jillian in which I did not feel uplifted, encouraged and completely supported, despite whatever was going on legally with my case. In addition, she has been genuine in her desires for the best outcomes for me and my children. Jillian's involvement in my case has changed the trajectory of not just my life but more importantly the lives of my two children. The positive impact of which, cannot be measured.

Maria and Cinthia are an amazing team. They were very helpful in processing my divorce. Explaining all the details and filling out the paperwork. I highly recommend them.

I appreciate all of the ladies that work in this office! They helped me get through such a disastrous divorce and horrible life event! Hopefully I will never have to experience this again,but I thank Cage and Miles for being a trustworthy team that I was always able to count on through the process.

Strongly recommend Liz Brown and the Cage & Miles law firm. Liz was professional, responsive, and tactically attentive to the primary issues at hand. She allowed the court to remain focused on the facts of my case and not get derailed. Thanks to the help by Liz and her firm, my family's needs came first and I never worried about a thing. You're in great hands with Liz Brown and Cage & Miles.

After calling around to several firms, I went with my gut feeling and trusted Cage & Miles with my divorce. I was pleasantly surprised by their professionalism and ability to explain my case to me in a clear and concise manner, taking steps to ensure my complete understanding of the process. They handled my divorce along with what I would have considered complex financial issues surrounding it with ease and certainty. I put my trust in Cage & Miles, was rewarded, and would recommend them to anyone requiring an attorney with expertise in family law. I wouldn't want anyone else representing me in my next divorce, but let's hope it doesn't come to that!

2 years ago, I found myself in a place that I thought would never-ever happen to me. I was in a ugly divorce. I was referred to Traci Hoppes, and as soon I spoke to Traci, I knew I was in good professional legal hands. Traci and her legal team took all my worries away with a better than expected outcome of a ugly situation. If you're in a similar position I'd definitely without a doubt recommend you hire Cage & Miles to handle your legal concerns. Thanks Traci

Very professional and helpful. Shannon was there around the clock to answer all of my questions. I would definitely recommend her.

What a great experience with Steve Brumer, he walked through the steps from start to finish at the initial meeting. He was very detailed and knowledgeable throughout the months we met. He came through with flying colors and no surprises came up. Highly recommended to all.

I had a post judgment child custody situation arise when my ex moved 70 miles away with our son, lied about her new address, enrolled him in school, and started calling the new guy my son's dad. Tess went to trial for me and used her skills to win my case handily. I would recommend Tess to anyone in need of a divorce lawyer.

I went to cage and miles after I was referred to them by a friend who's family member had used their services. My wife had filed for a divorce and wanted full custody, and was calling me an unfit parent and denying me even supervised visits. Going to cage and miles I had hesitation they possibly wouldn't be able to help me, but they're great at what they do and helped me get custody of my children I knew i deserved. Thank you very much Jaime Cage I recommend her to anyone needing a very good divorce lawyer.
