Amaral Law Inc. - Stockton, CA

Phone consultation with T. Amaral then hired her because I was lead to believe she would really fight for my rights, property and in the children's best interest which is to remain in home, keep kids stable and make sure I get all my separate property (Inheritance & Gifts ETC) received when My Dad passed away that I kept detailed records of including tracing all the money from it's origins, keeping the money separate from joint assets as this was extremely Important. I meet Tamran Amaral in person at my first court appearance which was scheduled for custody/visitation. I am disabled and have difficulties. I arrived few minutes late of which I notified her office. when I arrived I had difficulty identifying her and what was going on (Very Confused) I came with a Friend as my source of Support and eye witness (He is a PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR). I have been the children's primary caretaker since 2014 and Currently have Primary physical custody. Mom abandoned the family residence leaving me with all my disabilities completely in charge of take care of our children and home. Tamran approached me after Talking with Judge (I previously emailed picture of myself prior to court date because, remember I NEVER MEET Tamran in person until NOW BUT HIRED HER ANYWAY AND YES I NOW REALIZE MY MISTAKE) She was very aggressive when she approach me and did not communicate with me on what was going on so I was in total confusion! Her website is misleading in my opinion. The Mediator whom NEVER identified herself for some unknown reasons decided to use our attorney's to mediate Custody & Visitation (At OUR expense) and proceeded to decide on what she thought was appropriate visitation for my wife and every time I opened my mouth to either suggest something or voice my concerns or say anything she kept taking more and more time away from me. I was told that the only reason The Mediator didn't give my wife full custody is because my wife works and commutes. The entire mediation session was geared to my wife. I was SO Confused and My attorney did nothing to help! They used my inability to work due to disabilities against me and to justify giving my wife all available time she wanted. They were making up visitation schedules that were NOT in line with kids Sever Allergies, health concerns, school or activity schedules they were disagreeing on EVERYTHING I was trying to saying and my own attorney didn't effectively communicate with me on what was happening and NOT defending me. She was arguing against me in every way in front of everyone. Family Court is extremely stressful so much so that my friend said, He was so stressed and he is not even part of the proceedings (Totally Neutral) I agreed! Disclaimer: This review is supported by my own personal experiences of events and treatment by Tamran Amaral and I also have eye Eyewitness (Private Investigator) to further support this review. I also wanted to say way more but was drastically limited. Tamran Amaral is a professional and as such I expect a certain level of professionalism since I am the client. If I gets loud or there is Chaos happening by me or the events of family court stress then I would expect my professional attorney to take control of the situation by closing the door to give us privacy ETC. what did Tamran do? She left with My wife's Attorney for almost 2 hrs without explanation (Odd ?) She came back with a different attitude against me and said, "NO Wonder why your wife is divorcing you" commented about changing locks, wanted to give Tax write off to Wife regardless of who has primary custody, Persistently telling me that I will have to sell the home, that defer sale was not going to happen, no concern over children's health or anything else that would justify defer sale. she didn't even want to try. Said, Wife deserves proceeds from sale. Tamran made sure she was yelling louder w/ doors wide open so everybody could hear what was going on(embarrassing & Belittling to me)

I cannot recommend Mrs. Amaral highly enough. I would give 10 stars if I could. The Amaral law team was diligent and thorough, and truly made me feel they cared about my situation as much as I did. They helped put me at ease (as much as was possible) throughout an ugly custody trial. Trust this law office to care about your situation and be fierce advocates for your children.

I reached out to possibly retain this law firm's services. I provided a brief description of the details of our situation. I received a call back from someone named Jessica. She asked me for some more details of my case and after my first couple sentences she cut me off and put me on an extended hold. I waited, and when she came back on the line, she did not allow me to provide any additional details and just wanted to schedule an appointment 2 months out and collect payment. I found this extremely unprofessional and off-putting. So my initial impression of this law group was a strong indication that I should not use their services.

She will go to bat for you and every penny of your expense will be worth retaining her. She works harder that anyone I have delt with.

Tamran was amazing. Super knowledgeable, reasonable, and cares. Everything that we won in court was above and beyond my expectations. My first attorney was decent, my 2nd one was iffy, Tamran and her team were pretty much perfect. I can't say enough good things. Hoping she never retires, she's a VERY good family attorney.

I have been using Tamran and Nikki since 2015 for my custody needs. Any chance my wife and I get to tell people about them, we do! We have recommended their services to our family, friends, and even coworkers for custody and divorce needs. Those that have used them also are immediately satisfied with the results. I often describe Tamran as a sly Pitbull in the courtroom. She is amazing with words and gracefully gets the job done. The last time I needed their services was 2018 for an emergency full custody order. It was extremely nerve-racking but as usual Tamran and Nikki both were there supporting me and answering every email/phone call/text rapidly. Thanks to their guidance and skillset, my daughter is still safe with me. They truly care about the wants/needs of their clients and I feel as though they put themselves in your shoes which is why they are able to do such an outstanding job. Amaral Law is by far the best Family Law office in the Central Valley.

Tamran handled my extremely complicated, out of state custody case with a no nonsense attitude that was extremely impressive in trial. She did not once forget even the smallest detail related to my case and was brilliant to watch in the court room. I felt confident walking into trial with her and knew she would not let me down. After many days in trial, she was able to obtain everything I had originally requested. My children are now home with me; safe and happy. We will never forget Tamran and will continue to use her whenever we need any family law help.

Tamran is a wonderful attorney. I would highly recommend her. She helped my children and I go through a very difficult time in our lives. She is compassionate and very knowledgeable of the law. She always went above and beyond. I was very please with the outcome of my case.

I have been represented by Tamran for a few years now in an extremely complex and protracted family law matter. I am very grateful for her strong representation and continued vigilance in my case. Having previously worked in civil litigation law, I was extremely pleased to see that she was very knowledgeable in family law as it was completely foreign to me. It was humbling as it became evident that I really needed her help and she was there for me. I would highly recommend her to anybody that needs help and expertise in family law.
