People seeking a divorce, child custody, child support, and other services can choose a family law firm where all lawyers are in the Top 5% in California.

Super Lawyers, a rating service that identifies outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas, selected Lewellen | Strebe | Hopper P.C. partners Kimberly Lewellen and Jason Hopper as Super Lawyers in the field of family law, highlighting them as among the Top 5% in the state. Partner Michael Strebe, senior attorney Theresita Perez, and senior counsel Laura Matsie Chickering received recognition as Rising Stars, a more elite selection of the Top 2.5% practicing in their field across the state.  

This is the third consecutive year that Kimberly Lewellen has been named a Super Lawyer; the first year for Jason Hopper, who was previously counted as a Rising Star for nine total years; and this is Michael Strebe’s sixth successive selection as a Rising Star.
