This Judge does not know real estate law. She overruled a demurrer to a real estate commission complaint without the RPA. How could any commission agreement be valid without the RPA? She also advised PLA of arbitration, after PL...Read More07/17/2023 07:58 PMContact reviewer

A great judge. Wish she was in downtown Los Angeles so that more litigants could experience what it is like to have a fair, unbiased, hardworking and knowledgeable judge preside over a civil case.02/24/2019 02:49 PMContact reviewer

Very sharp, even-tempered. Reads all the details of the case and takes copious notes, follows every nuance of the case. She is, truly, a legal eagle, but you won't see it easily - comes across as a soft and polite lecturer. Yes...Read More10/13/2017 02:32 AMContact reviewer

Polite but that is misleading as she was pathetically pro-prosecution. Glad she moved on.12/04/2015 05:36 PMContact reviewer
37332Criminal Defense LawyerNo RatingDisgusting creature. She is extremely depressed and it shows in her courtroom manner. She should retire and clean up her horse's crap. At least she would be accomplishing something.09/02/2015 01:50 AMContact reviewer
37073Criminal Defense LawyerNo RatingAnother "lefist Calif. Judge." Share your wealth is her belief while she probably eats cavier for breakfast. What is wrong with this state is judges such as this. Do it her way or you get zip. Stay clear of this tryanbt08/23/2015 02:26 PMContact reviewer
24778Criminal Defense LawyerNo RatingShe is a miserable person in general. She knew that I had been cheated by the other side, but insisted that I take a big loss money-wise. She thought that I should get something, but not much. Not only was I ripped off by the othe...Read More01/04/2014 09:38 PMContact reviewer

Excellent judge. Read the papers closely and was very well prepared. Had the courage to ask hard questions and seemed to have good intuition about what was really happening in the case. Courteous to all, but not moved by flatte...Read More03/16/2008 12:56 AMContact reviewer
