PLBK, LLP

If you're looking for a top-notch divorce lawyer in San Diego, Amanda’s the one you want by your side. She helped me through a really tough time with a mix of professionalism, compassion, and serious determination. Her understanding of family law is incredible-she saw potential issues before they even came up and always had a smart plan ready to go. Amanda’s also super responsive. Whether I had a late-night question or needed something filed last minute, she was always on it and made me feel like I wasn’t alone in the process. She’s firm when she needs to be and doesn’t back down from what’s fair, but she’s also honest and grounded. No fluff, no false promises, just straight-up results. What really stood out to me was how fair she was. Amanda didn’t just fight for me; she fought for what was right. She helped me reach a resolution that felt balanced and respectful, which meant a lot during such an emotional time. If you’re in San Diego and need a divorce lawyer who knows her stuff, communicates well, stands her ground, and keeps it real, Amanda’s your person. I couldn’t be more grateful.

Amanda Khiterman is absolutely amazing! She stayed with me for years through my custody journey. Her documents are always professional and very well written. Very impressive! She gets to the point and shows receipts. I feel she was always honest with me. She didn't sugar coat, and would let me know if she wasn't sure what the outcome of a situation would be. She kept me very well informed and she is very knowledgable. I have the utmost confidance in her. When we met, I was timid about everything due to my past experiences. She really helped me gain confidence in myself and my voice. Most importantly, she protected me and my child. I have never recommended an attorney before, but Amanda 100% is worth calling.

I’ve worked with Amanda Khiterman twice now. And I am very grateful for the work she has done. She’s passionate, professional, knowledgeable and most importantly caring. She treats me and my daughter as if we’re family and always has my best interests at heart. Thanks to Amanda I’ve had more opportunities to stay in my daughter’s life. If anyone is looking for a family lawyer that will treat your case as their own, then I would fully recommend and endorse Amanda.

Chris Banuelos is like a guardian angel to my family (and multiple of my friends as well). We’ve all had great success in our cases with him. More importantly, not only is he incredibly skilled, but he actually cares about his clients. He was extremely knowledgeable about complex financial matters, military benefits and more. Highly recommend. While I hope I never have a need for his services again, I feel safe knowing he’s just a phone call away.

I was paying my former spouse over a 5 year period with no end in sight, and I contacted PBLK and Amanda Khiterman and her team stepped in and took my case. Amanda discovered I was overpaying my former spouse and seen how unfair my judgement was. Mrs. Khiterman was able to prove this in court and got me a light at the end of the tunnel. The fees were fair considering what my attorney had to work with. I am so thankful to Amanda and her team. Thank you!!!!

I am writing this review as today was the final judgment in my divorce case. I am officially divorced! Thank You to Mr. Mark Patterson. hands down the best Attorney. Mr. Mark as I like to call him is professional, always on time, and knows family law inside and out. When I was looking for an attorney in December of 2021, with my hearing a week out, I interviewed several law firms and not one attorney was willing to take my case with a week’s notice. I called PLBK Law Firm and Mark Patterson returned my call. I didn’t hesitate to retain Mr. Mark as he called with a plan to tackle the first of many hearings in my divorce case. Three years worth to be exact, because of Mr. Mark I walked away from court appearances with tears of joy not once but each and every time. His organizational skills and knowledge of the law is superior and is the reason why I RECEIVED EVERYTHING I WANTED. I highly recommend Mark Patterson

MARK IS THE BEST!!!!! I was in a horrible situation where it looked like I would get completely screwed. I realized about 2 weeks before my court date I could no longer handle this myself and needed an attorney desperately. I interviewed about 10 attorneys and not 1 of them would give me any information or look over my paperwork until I put them on retainer. When I contacted Mark, he never even mentioned the retainer until he spoke to me and got a good feeling about my case and then once he understood it and reviewed my paperwork then he mentioned it. Mark is down to earth, understanding, and most of all he truly cares. He completely changed my life and my kid's life for the better. He's well versed in family matters and it is like watching a movie when he's representing you the way he speaks and carries himself. Its poetry in motion. I can't thank Mark enough.
