Anne M. says, "I called Clear Path for assistance with the DHCS Discovery, and I was very confused; I had only two days left before the deadline. Chelsea took my case and started working on it immediately. She is very Professional, competent, and very knowledgeable with her work. She made me feel very comfortable, explaining the requirements for quality work, and I was sold. She went above and beyond, delivering high-quality work on time. I submitted before the deadline. Thank you so much, Clear Path, for all that you do to help us without a legal background. The document's format and language are on point. Thank you, Lovely Clear Path Team. You came through for me when I needed help. Keep up the good work. I will always recommend you to my friends and family, and anyone else I come across who needs legal help."See more

Stephanie says, "I really appreciate this service. I didn't have the time/mental bandwidth to figure out the court document process for a divorce myself, so I looked up LDA services.I contacted several LDA's and was shocked at the cost - theirs were comparable with a lawyer's starting retainer - and was happy to find Fast Divorce.You communicate through Clio, a secure platform for lawyers/LDA services, and you sign everything via Docusign. I really appreciated this as my friend is using an LDA and she has to go into the woman's office to sign each document.They were collaborative with questions/document editing and always responded in 24-48 hours with questions. They explained the process as we went through with what to expect and timelines.Highly recommend for anyone who is going through an amicable divorce and doesn't want to take the route of lawyer or mediator!"See more

Asia B. says, "Attorney Perez and Paralegal Heather is the epitome of quality, professionalism and diligence. I am so pleased that I was able to find Attorney Perez, not only was she punctual, but there was never a point in time where I had to wonder what was going on with my case or what was the best option to go forward with. She is super affordable for the level of services that she gives which exceeds excellence. She allowed a space for me to ask any questions that I had no matter how small or large they may have been, I am completely thankful to have her on my team and working on my case. If I know anyone who has a need for the type of legal services that she provides, I will definitely be recommending her hands-down. Her office is in San Diego, but she handled my case here in Riverside and did not miss a beat on anything. I am confident that no matter where you are in southern California this attorney can meet and exceeded your needs. You are in great hands with Attorney Perez, and rest, assured if she says that she will do something her and her paralegal, Heather will deliver !"See more

Established in 2010, I bring over 15 years of legal experience and a Juris Doctor (JD) degree to my role as a Legal Document Assistant. My extensive background includes working in substantive positions as a trial paralegal for law firms in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego. I have had the privilege of being trained by top attorneys in various areas of law, including family law, litigation, and estate planning. I have developed a comprehensive system to help self-represented clients navigate their cases effectively. In specific instances, I refer clients to limited scope attorneys who can provide specialized expertise at critical points, ensuring comprehensive legal support and collaboration. This approach ensures that clients receive necessary legal strategy and advice without incurring the high costs of full-time attorney representation. My system is designed to give self-represented parties a fair chance of success in their matters. My extensive background as a trial paralegal in large and small law firms across California ensures precise and reliable document preparation. Please note that as a Legal Document Assistant, I cannot represent you in court or provide legal advice, as per California Business and Professions Code Section 6400.See more
