Helpful & Knowledgeable
It was hard to choose an attorney but we eventually went with Mayer & Young. So glad we did! Heather is such a knowledgeable attorney. She is extremely well-versed in family law and can break down complex matters into simple to understand terms. She has been so very helpful throughout our case. I’d recommend Mayer & Young to anyone dealing with a family law issue here in Sacramento or surrounding areas. She has saved me countless hours of paperwork and the hassle of having to work through my case on my own.

Highly Recommend
I am a State of California employee who hired Kristine Young to help me with my family law court proceedings and I thank them for everything they’ve done thus far. I was dreading the strenuous and grueling process, but Kristine and her staff were so professional and efficient, they helped the procedure go very smoothly. They were always courteous and attentive, making me feel that my case was the only one being handled by the firm… when in reality I was one of hundreds of clients. Given my experience, I would highly recommend Kristine Young.

Kristine has been an amazing lawyer!
My goal this year was try to get primary custody of my son. I walked in to Kristine’s office with so many questions and the idea that it would be nearly impossible since I was the father. Kristine really had the eagerness to help me get my son back. She is always quick to reply by phone or email and provides very straight forward answers. She was a great attorney and always kept my son’s best interest at heart. She really has a compassion for what she does. I gave 100% trust in her when it came to my custody issues. I have recommended her to several people and will continue to do so! She has brought my family back together and helped me provide a better life for my son I can not express how much that means to us as a family. Thank you Kristine!

First Class Law Firm!
I worked with Kristine Young on a family law case recently. It was my first dealing with the family law courts in Sacramento and Ms. Young clearly knew what she was doing and instantly put me at ease. She was professional in all her dealings with me, opposing counsel, and the court. She was tough when she needed to be and provided me with excellent advice on dealing with my situation. I would highly recommend her firm for your next family law case. I also had some interactions with Heather Mayer and she was very courteous and respectful as well. I also like that they work in an office with competent secretarial staff, who would quickly take care of minor details along the way. All in all, Mayer & Young is a first-class law firm!

My wife and I just recently got married and purchased a new home together. An estate plan and trust was on our list of items to do. We did not know where to start. We set up an appointment with Heather and just had to answer some questions. In about 2 weeks after our initial appointment we had already received an email from Heather notifying us that our documents were ready for review and signatures. We could not believe how quickly and easy the whole process was. We both sleep better at night knowing where our assets will go if something were to ever happen to us. If you have kids this is not something you should wait on doing. Thank you Heather for all your help. We still hand out your business cards and would recommend you to our friends and family.

Best attorney I’ve ever met!
Kristine Young has helped me with my custody case recently. She is very professional, and helped me and my family understand the process and put our minds at ease. She met with us in person and provided very sound advice, and was willing to work with us financially to make it happen. Kristine is very smart, focused, and driven to help her clients. She works well over email and phone, and is quick to respond to your inquiries. She also got a chance to represent us in court, and she was very confident, spoke clearly, and said what needed to be said to help the judge understand all circumstances. I would (and will) recommend anyone to her that is looking for an attorney. It has been my genuine pleasure working with her on our case.

Best Attorney Experience
Heather was absolutely fantastic with my custody case, the best attorney experience I have ever had… period. I would recommend her services to any single parent needing efficient and effective family law expertise and assistance. Heather accepted my case promptly. She answered my questions clearly. She was professional, polite and to the point when it was necessary. She got the job done and helped relieve some of the stress related to these often messy and difficult matters. THANK YOU HEATHER!

Kristine Young was wonderful!
She has a great sense of how the courts and judges like to hear things and what they like to see in writing. Her talking/writing skills and vocabulary are very professional and on point! She kept me on track with the important things and was up front about what should/should not be discussed. She did not beat around the bush and worked with me on how I wanted/needed to present my case. Thank you again, Kristine, for all you’ve done!

We worked with Heather Mayer of Mayer and Young, on our first estate plan. Not knowing what to expect, Heather was really easy to work with and answered all my questions. She explained the legal aspects in ways I would understand and made the whole process painless. She was very professional, detailed oriented, and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her, she was awesome!

Professional, Prompt, and Efficient
I have been putting off creating a living trust for years. Now, I don’t know why because Heather Mayer made it so easy. From start to finish, the trust was done in less than two weeks, and with only two meetings! Heather is extremely bright, efficient, organized, and prompt. She knows the laws, and any questions I asked were answered clearly and knowledgeably. A few days after we met, I received an email, and the trust was done, and ready for review. When I called or emailed, Heather responded, if not immediately, that same day. She is a top notch attorney, and I feel so lucky to have found her. You can be certain I give Heather nothing but the highest marks!

I only wish I had met and hired her years ago!
Ms. Young helped me with my family law case recently. She is very sharp, clever, and caring. I met with her initially, and was very nervous about the process. Her confidence and professionalism helped calm me down and get me through it. She was incredibly responsive throughout the process. When I had a question or concern, she got right back to me. It was weeks between my very first consultation with her and my next meeting, yet she recalled intimate details about my case. It left me with the feeling that she really cares about her clients. I only wish I had met and hired her years ago! I would recommend her, and already have to a personal friend who needs to finalize a divorce.

Kristine was my lawyer in handling my marriage settlement agreement, the entire process of a divorce is exhausting and emotionally draining. You hear so many stories of lawyers taking advantage of people and the situations they are in. I never ONCE felt that with Kristine or anyone else at her firm, they were professional, efficient and pleasant to work with!! She was knowledgeable and was able to get it all processed and executed a lot faster than I expected. I would highly recommend her, if you are searching for a lawyer, look no further. I promise you, you will not regret it! I know how trying this time must be for you if you are looking for a family law lawyer… make it a little easier for yourself and call her!

Let Heather do your living trust!
Heather was professional and wonderful to work with. She gave us great ideas to achieve what we really wanted in our trust. We had difficult family issues to resolve and she made it so easy and pleasant. Quick turnaround as well. I was dreading this process, but we were finished in an hour. Her fees we the most reasonable of any inquiries I made. We were really lucky to be referred to her.

Thank you Mayer & Young!
My wife and I were putting off taking care of
our Will and Living Trust for many years. Heather answered all our questions and was very thorough! She clearly explained the benefits and importance of having a Living Trust. We are so relieved we finally got it done with the help of her expertise.  I highly recommend this Firm to anyone who is looking for caring, knowledgeable professional lawyers.

Reassuring, Sympathetic, and Helpful
Their website bills Mayer & Young as strong advocates and compassionate attorneys. This is 100% true! Heather Mayer assisted me on two legal matters recently. One in particular was very stressful, but she put me at ease immediately. She was very reassuring, sympathetic to my case, and helpful. She was very frank with me about my options and what she thought I could achieve based on her prior experiences and knowledge of the law. It wasn’t always what I wanted to hear (you can’t have everything!), but it was the truth and it was what I needed to hear to proceed forward on the best path. They are professional, polite, helpful, and skilled.

Responses to my questions were quick and thorough. Their invoicing is also very transparent; everything you are billed for will be clearly marked and will match the actual amount of time spent on a particular item. There is no frivolous padding to charge you more like some law offices, and their rates are also exceptional, especially for the high quality legal assistance you will get. It was worth it for the peace of mind that I was able to get throughout the stressful process of a legal dispute. I would recommend Mayer & Young to anyone seeking Family Law help, or needing to establish a will or trust.

I can’t thank them enough!
I was so lucky to find Kristine Young of Mayer & Young to complete my divorce for and Heather Mayer to complete my living trust.  During the divorce, Kristine made me feel so comfortable and really held my hand through the whole process, making it so much easier for me.  I didn’t have a contested divorce but it was still a very difficult and emotional time.  Every question I asked Kristine had an answer for or she found it for me. i felt like I was well taken care of and all aspects of the divorce were handled professionally.  I always knew that Kristine had my back and my best interests at heart.
I was thrilled to be able to work with Heater Mayer of Mayer & Young  to put together my will and living trust.  This was another thing that seemed more scary than it actually was.  I had put it off for a long time since it seemed to scary to talk about death and health issues.  Heather made me feel very comfortable through the process and after going over the options with me we determined that a living trust was the best option for me. Heather walked me through the process making me feel very comfortable the whole time.  She is so positive and upbeat it makes it much easier to deal with a difficult situation.  Because of her experience with probate, she knows how to put together an estate planning portfolio that covers all of the bases and protects my assets and my family.  I feel so much more at peace now knowing my family is taken care of if something happens to me.
I would highly recommend Kristine Young to anyone who is going through a divorce and Heather Mayer for assistance with estate planning.  I can’t thank them enough for helping me get everything taken care of and with a smile! 🙂

Highly talented, Resourceful and Professional Lawyer
I recently retained the services of Kristine Young at Mayer & Young as my attorney to work my ongoing divorce.  She came in after it had been worked for 6 months and took over an extremely messed up situation left by the previous attorney.  Kristine came in, made sense of everything, created a plan to move forward, executed that plan and was ultimately successful.  This narrative does not tell you about the pain, heartache, toil and just plain aggravation Kristine had to fight through from my ex and her lawyer for us to eventually get the divorce judgement. I’ve never seen someone stay the course so well in never losing sight of the ultimate goal, as well as keeping me calm but yet taking it to the opposition when needed.  Never losing her professional demeanor no matter how pushed by the other side and their lunacy.  Always researching that we were using all possible avenues in law to achieve our goals.  I guess what I am trying to say is Kristine Young is a highly talented, resourceful and professional lawyer who will fight for you intelligently and treat you with kindness and dignity while able to explain the intricacies of family law in a clear and understandable way.  I would highly recommend her to you for your family court needs.

I’ve had the best experience with Ms. Kristine
She took my case on and was able to handle things for me that took 4 years to figure out. And with her help its only been a few months. There is a lot of compassion for their clients not just a dollar sign. I am answered fast with emails, patience with payments, and care with my case. I would recommend this law firm for anyone who is dealing with divorce and custody issues. They will handle your case with care and understanding. I thank Ms. Kristine Young for coming in my life at the right time.

Honest, Trustworthy Attorney
Kristine was absolutely wonderful in helping me complete a divorce that should have been easy but turned difficult.  She explained everything to me and what outcomes she expected at hearings.  She was very honest and that made me trust her even more.  After my divorce was final, she continued to “work my case” to ensure everything was completed.  I did not even know she was doing this, which was amazing!  Kristine has been such a help with my divorce that I plan on hiring her to complete my will/trust next.  I highly recommend Kristine if you are looking for an honest, trustworthy attorney.

High Ethical Standards
I have known Kristine and Heather for over a year and their high ethical standards are reflected in every aspect of their work. I recently visited with Heather who was able to take a delicate estate matter and work diligently towards a positive conclusion. I would highly recommend Heather for any probate matter and Kristine for any family law matter as I would not seek consultation elsewhere.

My husband and I used Heather Mayer with Mayer & Young to do our trust. We have been wanting to do this for a few years but kept putting it off for one reason or another. Heather made the process painless. She easily explained complicated legal terms to us in a way we could understand them. This helped us to make the best decisions in the preparation of the trust. When we had questions for Heather she quickly got back to us. In fact the turn around time for our trust was really quick. Not only was the trust done by someone with competence and integrity, it was affordable!
Thank you Heather! We will be recommending you to our friends and family.

Remarrying later in life, I recognized the need for a prenuptial agreement, and found Kristine through a legal service I belong to. She has done a great Job representing me in putting together my pre-nup. She is a great attorney I would recommend to all. She has gone above and beyond to help provide excellent service! I thank you here in this format for your help and services which has been much appreciated. She was timely and easy to work with. I did not feel rushed, and she was patience and informative providing immediate information which made me feel safe and at ease. I highly recommend this firm.

Kristine Cares About Justice
Kristine Young has helped me maintain stability and control in my confusing and entangled case where other lawyers have failed. She has managed this all by truly listening carefully and applying the law she knows VERY well. She is not only capable, but completely up front and honest in what to expect. Her sincerity, sensitivity and empathy has helped me cope with the stress family law inevitably brings. I won’t deny that I, like many others, have developed a disdain for most lawyers I’ve met, but Kristine is different. She truly cares about justice and I know it hurts her heart when she sees otherwise. We need more lawyers like her.

I can’t say enough good things!
Kristine handled my divorce for me. She walked me through the process, filled out all my paperwork, worked with my ex-husbands attorney and listened to me when I griped. A divorce can be a messy process however; I was kept informed every step of the way and knew exactly what was happening at all times.

Heather from Mayer and Young, was great.
She made a stressful situation pleasant. I now have a Will and Trust, which gives me a peace of mind if something were to happen to me. I had many questions which she always responded promptly. Thank you!!

Professional and Polite
Kristine was very professional and polite during this stressful time. Kristine makes sure to explain all charges on bill statements throughout the process so you know exactly what you are paying for, I never felt like I was dealing with a robot lawyer that was just trying to make a quick dollar. I would highly recommend her for anybody going through a tough divorce where things can change in a moment’s notice.

Glad I Hired Her
Kristine helped me in my recent dissolution case and I am very glad I hired her. She is very approachable no matter it was office visit, a phone call or emails. She is a busy lawyer but she always gets back to me within the same day, sometimes late in the evening. She answers all my questions promptly and clearly. She is very sharp and bright. She has no problem dealing with difficult issues and assured me that my rights are protected. I am glad I hired her to assist me.

Treated me with Respect
Mayer & Young handled my divorce as well as helped me to set up my trust. I can’t say enough good things about these ladies. They are “real”. They don’t come off as snobbish attorneys and treated me with respect. They laughed at my jokes and listened when I was griping about the ex-husband. I would recommend them to anyone in need of the services they provide.

I thank Ms. Kristine Young for coming in my life at the right time.

Jennifer

The Best Attorney in Sacramento
My husband and I did not recognize the importance of having a will until our first child was born. We realized we did not have a care taker legally lined up to take custody of our son should anything ever happen to us. With this in mind we wanted to find someone who could educate us on creating a will.

I can be quite the perfectionist so I called a long list of attorneys before I found Mayer & Young. We met with Heather Mayer and she was wonderful. She immediately put us at ease and answered my never-ending list of questions. Heather is articulate, experienced, and welcoming. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.

This place comes highly recommended!!!!
OK, you guessed it, we generally don’t trust attorneys.  Most have a bad reputation, and it’s a business that is not regulated, so skies the limit on charges and fees.  I even had a prepaid legal service, and that was worthless.  A close friend of mine recommended Heather Mayer at Mayer & Young for family law and estate planning.  OMG, first of all, Heather was like talking to a long time friend.  I bled all over her with my needs, then she calmly asked a few questions, was up front with the pros and cons with my situation, and provided ideas for moving forward.  No pressure!  I left her office feeling exceptionally great about my options, which are not the best, but I got sound advice that put me in a way better place.  I’ll be a client for life, just wish they did more than Family and Estate planning.

Heather Mayer of Mayer & Young helped my family with our estate planning and was thorough and compassionate when it came to my parents needs.
