Dubroff, Easley & Lovell, LLP

"There are many positive things to list about Deborah Dubroff’s work as a family attorney. Ethical, intelligent, strategic, and responsive are the main one’s. First, some context. My case was not particularly complex, except for the continuous (over months) emotional roller coaster with so many questions and scenarios related to the outcome (s)of a divorce. There is money/asset division, a house, impact on a daughter, spousal support, the current legal framework, and demands being made by each party trying to maximize their situation going forward. I interviewed four attorneys before choosing Deborah. My criteria that I used: the person should be a woman, at least 20 years of experience, strong but not to pursue “war” as an immediate tactic. On the first working meeting (not our initial one), Deborah attentively and smartly put together both a strategic approach, the recommended steps to get there and the key tactics at hand. She does and did not waste time. Her immediate counseling was for me to go down the mediator route (avoid attorney to attorney litigation). And at the same time, Deborah suggested that I entertain using her as the “consultant attorney”. She basically recommended the more efficient and very cost affective approach. Engaging Deborah as my consultant to guide, advocate and review the materials from the ongoing mediation process worked out very, very well."

"I'm very happy that I hired Rebecca Lovell and the Dubroff firm to represent me in my divorce. Rebecca clearly understood the law and the Alameda County family court system. She listened carefully and was on top of all of the imporant facts and legal issues. She and her staff were also very responsive when I had questions. On top of all that, their billing was extremely reasonable. I'm grateful that my initial Google search led me to this law firm."

"During a very difficult period, Deborah and her team were a godsend. Strategic, patient, supportive and extremely knowledgeable, I was completely able to entrust Deborah to help me navigate my divorce. Her deep experience allowed her to quickly cut through the clutter so we could focus on what was important for me. This time was emotionally fraught and her ability to craft a clear and simple strategy that honed in on my needs and ultimate well-being was superlative. I could not have asked for more. Knowledge of the law is a given for one’s lawyer. Deborah’s big-picture, long-term perspective is a rarity and made all the difference. A few years out from the experience, I can say that our work together delivered excellent results. That she and her team are also kind and friendly is an added and much appreciated bonus. I’d definitely work with her again for any of my family law needs."

"If you need a divorce attorney, hire Deborah Dubroff. My divorce was a difficult time for my entire family, not unlike the death of a loved one. I was very fortunate to have an old family friend, a lawyer, refer me to Deborah Dubroff . The first time I met Deborah, I knew I was in good hands and I felt a wave of relief wash over me. My first impression of Deborah was that she was knowledgeable, a hard worker, ethical, respectful, professional, patient, nonjudgmental and empathic. During our first meeting Deborah went thru the entire process, told me how to make the best use of our time, kept me focused, reassured me that I was not going to lose custody of my children and that things were going to be ok. My impression has not changed. After our initial meeting Deborah requested information and forms to be filed out, which I sent her, appeared in court as required and throughout the divorce process provided me timely updates until my cases conclusion. I am eternally grateful to Deborah for getting me thru those dark days. Roger Freeman"

"I have sought counsel from Rebecca Lovell, while at Dubroff Family Law firm, on multiple occasions over several years and have had an outstanding experience each time. Seeking her counsel is undoubtedly one of the best investments I've ever made. What I have most appreciated from working with her is not only her knowledge and expertise, but her empathy, candor, and responsiveness. I would encourage and strongly recommend Rebecca to anyone who is in need of legal support."
