  • Yanique Otto was very professional and provided me with pertinent information concerning my situation. Even though she did not have to represent me- her knowledge and expertise left me with an unremarkable impression. I appreciate her counsel that she did provide me. She will give you the counsel that you need in settling any divorce matters. If I can give more stars I would. Thank you for all do...

    The Otto Law Group is so much more than a law firm. They go above and beyond to make sure all the needs on your case are met. If you ever have Ms. Otto’s Assistant, Ms. Adeola help you, you’re in for a blessing. She’s well mannered, understanding and is very patient. My experience with her has really changed my outlook on law firms. I would highly recommend this place, they’re very professional but also cater to your needs and are willing to work with you.

  • Attorney Otto is extremely knowledgeable and caring! She took the time to explain things to me that were beyond the scope of what I was paying her for. I didn’t expect that, so I appreciate it greatly. I highly recommend her and her team to my family and friends for legal matters. - Thank you attorney O.

    The Otto Law Group represented me in a car accident case in 2014 and recovered the full policy amount available for all of us. I’ve recommended my other friends and family members to her, and without fail, she delivers good results, every time. I’m very happy to have her as my attorney and would recommend her highly to anyone who has been injured in an accident.
