I am thankful I found Bill Parks to help me through my divorce. He was responsive, provided incredible advice along the way, and guided me through the process in a professional manner.
At every stage of the process, I felt that he was truly working to get the process resolved versus tagging the clock for additional fees along the way, which was my biggest fear in finding an attorney. He is level headed and extremely knowledgeable about the process, and I would highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce.

In my initial consultation with Mr. Parks, I was thoroughly impressed. I immediately felt at ease due to his kind, respectful and supportive demeanor. After relaying to him a complicated situation, Mr. Park asked thoughtful questions and actively listened to the answers. In turn, when I asked questions, his answers were informative and thorough. I appreciated Mr. Park's candor and honest assessment of our situation. My fiancé and I have to decide if we are going to pursue a custody battle. One thing we are 100% certain of is Mr. Parks will be the one we choose to represent us.

Bill is a very knowledgeable and responsible family attorney. His skill set and experience help me to resolve my family and divorce case. I had a very complicated case as it related to many family issues and matters, such as restraining orders, child custody, property, etc. My previous family attorney did not handle my case properly at all and there a lot of documents were missing or did not do it properly. My case did not get any better or move a single step forward. I got stuck. I was really want to get the divorce done. I was in limbo. Luckily, I found Bill. He reviewed and knew how complicate

I reached out to Parks Law Group to handle pre wedding paperwork. From the first request consultation on Yelp, Bill was extremely helpful and responsive. Not only were his rates extremely fair for the type of work I was looking for, he was extremely transparent about the estimated number of hours as well as his schedule. Due to all the efforts of him and his team especially in the challenging COVID-19 era, we were able to get everything done promptly and professionally. Five stars all the way.

Bill Parks is the truth! I interviewed 20 lawyers when dealing with my complex custody case. I actually used a friend before the case got so ugly, we needed to call in the big guns...Bill ALWAYS showed up with integrity, called when he said, over-delivered what he promised! I was very nervous about this case at first, but he told me that I hired him for his strategy and expertise, and to trust his judgement... and when he gave me the responsive declaration back to read, I almost peed myself in excitement, relief, gratitude because I knew I was in good hands!! He was able to take my ideas and drive

Mr. Parks went above and beyond to help me with a decade old case that just wouldn't go away. He knows the system inside and out and he was able to navigate it to my advantage as it would be very very difficult for me to get resolution as fast as he did (in a matter of days, during pandemic). He was very professional and kept me well informed which resulted in easy interactions and transactions (I wouldn't take this for granted). I'd highly recommend him.

If you are shopping for a divorce attorney, you have my sincere sympathies. Its an awful process and was certainly one of the lowest points in my life. When looking for and attorney I was told to meet at least a few and find the right fit. I did that but after meeting the first two, I was disgusted. All I got was "we will go after them for this and that..." it was a process that seemed to be designed for them to make as much money as possible. Then I met Bill Parks and everything felt much better. Bill is a very calm person who instantly makes you feel like you are in the right hands. I think its

Bill Parks handled my divorce in 2016. I found him on Yelp, not really having an existing relationship with a lawyer in family law. In our initial consultation, Bill put me at ease and gave me a concise overview of the potential cost, timeframe, and legal logistics of getting divorced in California, a community property state. I walked out of the initial meeting feeling like I had found an excellent divorce lawyer, and I was not disappointed in the final result. Though it was an amicable divorce, Bill was still instrumental in negotiating a relatively painless settlement.

Looking for a divorce lawyer is daunting, and you're having to find one at a very tough time in your life. I can't tell you how lucky I felt to have found Bill Parks. He is intelligent, fair, compassionate, and always well prepared. Additionally, he works with Karen Buitrago, and no matter how unpleasant your case may get, you couldn't have a better team on your side. They are both genuinely good human beings, and will have your back. I'm glad the divorce is over, but I will actually miss Bill and Karen.

I've recently had an interesting divorce and after searching for a good lawyer for aid the only ones that truly helped and truly cared were Bill Parks and Karen Buitrago. It was a long process with several bumps and walls, but nonetheless, worn the aid if Karen, now everything has been taken care of and a new life can start. Karen's attention to detail and timely responses to my many lost questions were a godsend during a very difficult time. I made several mistakes, but with care and professionalism Karen tackled all of my problems. Bill also provided the very necessary aid in keeping

William Park is by far is the best person I have spoken with. I have a current custody case which has been stuck for over 6 years. I am in the search for someone who can take over. I have been reaching out many so call top ranking Lawyer on yelp. Most of them will not talk to you unless you pay them something, being a self-employ professional myself I understand that the professional knowledge is what we use to make our living. I also understand that a client in need would have to first trust you, and William Park earns my trust. Unlike other Lawyer, William spent about 30min on the phone with

I was going through a very difficult time in my life recently and Bill Parks made it as stress-free as he could. He was calm, explained all of my options, and did not pressure me in anyway. He gave me the facts and let me decide what was best for me.
Having met him and having worked with him, I can say my divorce was as pain-free as one can expect.
Do yourself a favor, pick Bill Parks (William Parks, Jr.) to represent you. You won't regret it!!!

Karen is a talented lawyer who has helped me with many Family law issues; custody problems, a restraining order, and the best ways to get through a divorce. She's the type of lawyer who tells you exactly what the law is, almost word for word, then breaks in down so you can actually have a conversation about it. When you call her, she picks up the phone! For such a busy lawyer, Karen always answers my calls and keeps it personal.
She's just a phone call or a text away. I know if I get an opinion/answer from Karen, I can trust and bank on what she says. She's clearly not a factory

Karen Buitrago and Bill Parks were a godsend. Faced with highly contentious family law issues with a lot at stake I needed the best legal team and I found it with Parks Law.Let me break down my legal process with them in hopes that it may shed some light on what to expect of them:
CANDOR: Bill and Karen were very upfront with their opinion of my case and did not blow smoke up my @$$ to win me as a client. Whether I wanted to hear things or not they kept it real, but they always substantiated their thoughts/suggestions with intelligent and well-informed arguments.FEES: Without exposing

We will be forever grateful to have found an attorney who possesses such a deep degree of integrity, professionalism, talent, knowledge, ~ and this is huge, kindness.
Our treacherous trek though a family law issue had us on edge. William kept us focused on just the facts, and presented a palatable plan. He kept us calm and confidant as he navigated us through the legal maze. The outcome was that all parties are satisfied. (Well, mostly us!)
What we will never forget is the feeling/knowing that he genuinely cared about our family.

F you are reading this in an effort to find a divorce attorney, I am sincerely sorry for you. Its an awful, awful thing for anyone to have to go through.
Despite my best efforts, I was forced into getting a divorce attorney and after meeting with several, whom I could only best define as being focussed on nothing but the money and more importantly what they would earn, I consulted Yelp and thank god I did. After reading the reviews for Parks Law Group I scheduled an appointment and from that moment on, as everything else around me seemingly either crumbled or tried to destroy me, I felt a little

Mr. Parks is the best divorce attorney you can find. He is honest, caring, knowledgeable, smart, helpful and friendly. He charges a very fair rate and he tries helping you whenever possible to save on attorney fees. He made my divorce case a lot less daunting, much less costly and smoother.
Trust me, divorce is depressing, sad and awful. In order to deal with all the legal channels you will need to find an honest, hardworking and smart divorce attorney who can advise and/or represent you in your divorce; someone like Mr. Parks.
Without Mr. Parks, I would have been stuck with my case for a long
