Denise Ho is a Senior Trial Attorney at Reel Fathers Rights in Irvine, California, where her practice focuses on representing men and fathers in California Family Courts.

She is admitted in all four federal judicial districts in California and is fluent in English and Vietnamese.

About Denise Ho

Denise Ho represents fathers at every stage of a family law case. She handles divorce, child custody and visitation, child support, spousal support, property division, paternity, and domestic violence restraining orders, and she takes on post judgment litigation when an order has to be enforced or changed after judgment. Much of her work involves complex and high asset dissolution, where the fight is over what the marital estate actually contains and what a party truly earns.

Denise was admitted to the State Bar of California in 2014. Her background spans family law, civil litigation, business disputes, and complex financial matters, which is a useful combination in family court, where a custody schedule, a support order, and the characterization of a business can all turn on the same set of records. She has handled contested proceedings, evidentiary hearings, and trials, and she works on financial disputes involving business interests, real estate, property characterization, and income determination.

Denise treats family law as what it is for the client, among the most personal and difficult matters a person goes through. Emotions, priorities, and circumstances shift over the course of a case, and she expects that. She listens, she tells clients plainly where they stand, and she gives them the information they need to make their own decisions about their children and their finances rather than deciding for them.

She believes a fair settlement usually serves a father better than a fight for its own sake, and she will say so. When the other side will not deal reasonably, she is prepared to try the case, and her litigation background is what she draws on to build the strategy. Denise is also admitted in all four federal judicial districts in California and is fluent in English and Vietnamese, which matters for fathers in Orange County who would rather discuss their case in their first language. She works from the Irvine office, one of eleven Reel Fathers Rights offices throughout California.
