Xinying and her team were on the ball from day one. Not once did I feel lost or in doubt. I received updates on a weekly and sometimes daily schedule. I felt confident through the entire process that I had a winning combo on my side. Xinying is genuine and efficient. Just as I was mentally preparing myself for a tedious chore, it was over. Case resolved! I highly recommend Ms. Valerian to anyone in need of a great attorney without hesitation.
-Eddie, client
I'm so glad I was referred to Xinying, by a close friend. From the get-go, she was a great communicator, listened intently to my situation and how it was impacting me. She provided guidance on how to approach the situation, communicating in a style that I understood (not legal speak), and giving concrete actions, so that I can take the best action for me. I greatly appreciate her guidance. Thank you, Xinying!

Dominic is an excellent lawyer. He has a pleasant demeanor, is a quick thinker and knows the law in that he can think outside the box with assurity , without being abrupt. He has respect for others in his field which is very apparent. In our professional dealings with Dominic, he has proven to gain our complete confidence.
-Client
In consulting with Dominic on a very small matter, to my pleasant surprise, he didn't try to incorporate extensive attorney fees. It was short and sweet! I can count on one hand the number of lawyers that would forgo fees in the light of proper legal advice in litigation matters. Dominic, you rock!
