Meakins Law

I can't recommend Brook Meakins enough as a divorce attorney. From the start, she was incredibly supportive and reassuring, always providing clear and realistic expectations. During the overwhelming and stressful early stages, Brook made everything much more comforting. She eased my stress and made me feel like I would get through it. Going through a divorce during Covid was tough, but Brook's excellent communication made everything smoother. Her team took on most of the work, lifting a huge burden off my shoulders. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate divorce attorney, I highly recommend Meakins Law.

I've had nothing but wonderful experiences with Brook Meakins. She has helped me through some of the toughest times of my life. In addition to being kind and understanding, she is incredibly professional and excellent at what she does. She guided me through each step of the process and made me feel safe every step of the way. I will continue to use her services whenever I can.

I found Meakins Law to help guide me through my divorce and I’m so pleased with the services I received. I felt very overwhelmed and frustrated but had so much stress taken off when I started working with David to help me finish my case. Everyone I dealt with at Meakins Law was very communicative, transparent, and took away any intimidating feelings I had (especially during an emotionally difficult time!) I would highly recommend David/ Meakins Law to anyone in the Oakland- Berkeley area who needs a trusting divorce lawyer.

I have to say that Meakins Law is an excellent firm. Both Brook and all of her staff exemplify professionalism, responsiveness and a commitment to meet their clients' needs. I always felt that supporting and meeting my goals was their first priority and could not have asked for better representation in my divorce and the subsequent matters related to spousal support and custody that have come up over the last few years since my divorce.

I have visited Meakins Law in person and interacted with Brook Meakins and her kind, professional, and supportive staff on several occasions. I have consistently found Brook and her team to be wise, supportive, and compassionate. Her office is beautiful and well situated in Berkeley. I trust Brook and her organization to provide helpful legal guidance while handling sensitive and personal information professionally. If you or someone you know is looking for a Divorce Attorney I would strongly recommend Meakins Law!

As an attorney myself, I know what it looks like to see an attorney advocate effectively. Brook exemplifies what it means to be an advocate. Throughout my entire divorce process, Brook frequently checked in with me via email or phone. She worked diligently to write emails, submit letters, and file requests on my behalf. And perhaps most importantly, she expressed understanding, guidance, and encouragement along the way while also being honest and clear about potential risks and difficulties. Even after the divorce proceedings concluded, Brook took the time to check back in to make sure I was comfortable with how the case was resolved and to inquire if there was anything else she could do. I cannot recommend her more highly.

One of the highest rated and experienced teams in the East Bay area. People on reddit pointed me to Meakins, and they were right. The team cares and are so responsive and wonderful. I could not have wished for a better experience. They handled all of the paperwork with ease, and their representation in court was phenomenal. They made a stressful situation feel so smooth and manageable. Thank you Meakins!
