Rigney (Jon) & Cepeda (Julie) continue their winning tradition! Over 25 years ago Jon supported our family thru the roughest times. With compassion and gentle guidance he showed how to make a stand. Again in 2024 Julie took the lead this time and consistently met every challenge, this time for my elderly mother Dolores. Because of this, she’ll be able to remain in her home and live in dignity well into her 80’s! Thank you again Jon, Julie and Allyson(Office correspondent)!!

Divorce is difficult at any time but after a 23-year marriage it can feel like the foundation you have built a life on is crumbling all around you. This is a time when confusion is high, grief, anger, and fear can take over, and yet it is the time when you need to be thinking clearly and making smart choices to ensure the divorce process does not derail your life anymore or prevent you from taking care of your children. Finding the right divorce attorney is so important, it is worth your time to do your due diligence on who you are partnering with to ensure you are being represented in a way that will help you the most in recovering and thriving after the divorce process is over. I would like to thank Jon and Jessica for their support, solid advice, and providing reassurance as curveballs were thrown from every direction. Jon is a seasoned professional that has deep roots in the San Diego legal community so his experience will help guide you on the best path forward. I was fortunate to find Jon and I hope that you consider talking to Jon before you decide your next move.

Jon helped me with my custody case. He is a very seasoned lawyer. He always seemed prepared for all possible outcomes, and was ready to take them on. Jon gets straight to the facts, and has an assertive nature. He is definitely someone you want on your side. Everyone I came into contact with at his office was friendly and professional. I always felt like I was in good hands; personally and professionally.

Jon Rigney represented us in a child custody case. His office was completely professional, realistic, and honest in dealing with us. Jon has a great understanding of the San Diego court system, the military, and the emotional pressure that going through a custody battle can provide. We would recommend Jon to our closest of friends as his is an upstanding attorney that has the best interest of the child at heart.

I am absolutely stunned by the professionalism of this firm! They return calls and emails in a very timely manner. Julie Cepeda was my lawyer through my divorce case a few years ago and my more recent move away case. She has been mentored by Jon, the head attorney, and it shows how well he has done with guiding Julie. Julie is truly the best at hand. She is VERY knowledgable, and she is very real. The confidence in herself and work helped drive my cases from start to finish. She was there for me every step of the way and had no issue explaining the process. I am more than thankful for her. I highly recommend Julie Cepeda as a go to family lawyer!!!
