Stephanie worked really hard for us even when we had difficulty from the other party and she kept us informed on what step in the process we were in. When the big day came for the final hearing she even put the effort to make my son a big part of it. I recommend her to anyone who needs a family law attorney!

Austin was beyond amazing during the arduous process of custody modification. Austin was always very quick to respond and answer the million questions I had through each step. I am thankful for Austin and his team's work! I got the best result I could have gotten, and modifications are not an easy task.

Austin was fantastic in our custody case. He truly cares for his clients and is very focused on doing the best thing for the children involved. I appreciated that he was realistic in the goals we set for our case. He was also able to point us in the right direction for a counselor for our daughter and a Guardian ad Litem. Because of him, we had a dream team of professionals all working toward the goal of keeping our kiddo safe, supported, and providing the best future possible.

Austin is the best family law practitioner in town imho. The staff at the office are lovely: very professional, friendly and responsive. Austin is very knowledgeable about his area of practice, takes the time to ensure that clients understand their options, and really goes to bat for them. Billing is very clear and uncomplicated. I felt very supported throughout my court case(s) and would ask him to be my lawyer again in a heartbeat if I ever found myself in a legal situation again. Would give him 10 stars if I could!

I believe certain people come into your life for a reason, and Cynthia Lazar certainly is one of my people. Divorce can be a painful and gut-wrenching process. Cynthia was there for me every step of the way. She is reliable, thorough and provided the best legal advice and service I could have asked for, while keeping both my costs and best interests in mind. Her expertise and approach are second to none! Cynthia Lazar has my highest possible recommendation!

Cynthia is friendly, easy to work with, thorough and was fair to both sides during our divorce mediation. She was able to accommodate us with a “pay as you go” payment plan, which made things easier financially during this difficult time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone seeking an amicable divorce through mediation.

I hired Jackie for my divorce and child custody case, and I am so glad that I did. She is the best of the best. From our very first meeting, Jackie was extremely approachable, understanding, compassionate, and so reassuring. My case became extremely difficult and messy and Jackie was always there to guide me and answer any questions I had. She was very responsive to calls and emails. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, organized, thorough, honest, and always prepared. I trusted her to only communicate when necessary - she didn’t want to waste my time or my money. I felt heard and supported through every step of the process. I felt like she truly cared about the best interests of my child and me and fought to get the best possible outcome for us.
I hired Jackie again post judgment for additional child custody issues, and again, she did not disappoint. Jackie is simply a rockstar. She went above and beyond both times that I needed her, and I will forever be grateful for the huge role she played during such a difficult and challenging time of my life. I truly feel as if I could not have gotten through my divorce and child custody case, and received the outcome that I did, without Jackie by my side. Not only is she an amazing attorney, but she’s a wonderful person. I would highly recommend her to any of my loved ones. I would 1,000% use her again as my attorney in the future if necessary - I honestly wouldn’t want to be represented by anyone but her. Thank you, Jackie!

Jackie was able to help me though a difficult time in my life. She separated my emotions from the fact that I needed to take care of my own interests. We started the process before the pandemic and were able to work through the many hurdles it presented. I would highly recommend her.

Divorce is clearly a journey that I never thought I would end up on. At first, I was clearly in shock, and in desperate need of a guide and someone to support me on this journey. Katie, and the entire firm of Hertz Sager, were supportive, empathetic, and collaborative in the entire process.

Katie Sager was absolutely fantastic handling my case. I hired Hertz/Sager to take over my prior counsel. Katie was outstanding and professional from start to finish. Katie took the time to truly understand my case and every nuance around my situation (always taking the extra step in diligence). Additionally, she was always clear explaining every aspect of the process and creative around strategic solutions. Her support and depth of knowledge prepared me for every possible scenario. While I felt extremely comfortable and confident knowing I was very protected, I was incredibly appreciative of the humane/respectful nature, while maintain firm positions on our side. While going through depositions, there is no better counsel I could ask for. I would highly recommend Katie and her results-driven firm to anyone looking for a genuine and knowledgeable team.

I hired attorney Sager to handle my divorce. She was successful getting the judge to agree to the prenuptial agreement and to prevent having to disclose finances which were not included in the prenup. She carefully worded the marital agreement that my ex wife and I finally signed. The whole process took only a few months.

I hired Clark, Lowery and Lumpkin to assist with a very contentious divorce. Naomi took the lead on my case and her expertise and calm demeanor made me immediately feel like I was in great hands. The divorce proceedings took longer than anticipated, but Naomi provided timely updates and was by my side throughout the entire process. Although it was a tough experience, I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. Naomi is simply the best out there!

She made a constant effort to make sure that I stayed up to date on everything going on & was always prompt with answering questions. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Naomi stepped up during a critical time in my case when my counsel had to take emergency leave. This was not planned, but she made it seamless by stepping in with confidence and grace to get prepared and go before the court. She put my worries to rest quickly and I knew I could trust her to do everything she could. And she did not let me down. It’s great to work with a team that can adjust in this uncertain world to represent you with excellence! Naomi, Cherese and Zeelita are the dream team!

I initially consulted with Ashley because I got turned away at the courthouse for not having filled out the correct form. The whole process was so confusing to me, and Ashley did a great job in explaining how it works. I decided to hire her to file my divorce for me, and I'm so grateful! She was extremely professional and kind, as well as very flexible with her schedule to make it easy for me to meet with her. I am so appreciative that she handled all the paperwork and court processes for me, as well as explained how to fill out forms in such a patient and easy to understand way. I had a pretty simple divorce all things considered, but she's great at what she does and knows how to get things done quickly!

My experience as a client hasn't been anything other than a growing experience. For that I have Ashley to think. Navigating through the court system is not only tricky, but frustrating, amongst many other feelings, and Ashley made sure to not only guide me, but with patience teach me the ways around it as well. I highly recommend Ashley Wahl, not only for her experience and knowledge, but for her human quality which comes in handy when you need someone, not only to vent those frustrating feelings, but to help sort and understand those complicated laws.

I am extremely pleased with the services I received from Dwayne. I required a Trust and Will for my Estate Plan. Dwayne was knowledgeable and professional from the first consultation to the closing. He did an amazing job overviewing and explaining my Trust options. When I had additional questions, he was patient and provided detailed explanations. The entire process was completed within weeks. If I require an estate lawyer in the future, I will be using Dwayne again. I would highly recommend him for any Estate Planning services needed.

Meg was recommended to me and handled my contentious protracted divorce. She was extremely responsive and had a special ability to "calm" the emotions and stay focused on the case issues. I felt well supported by her, and she answered all my questions. She hung in there as an advocate no matter how hard it got or how obstructive my ex-husband was. With her help and support I am happily divorced. I appreciated and benefitted from her skills and wisdom. She was definitely in my corner through it all. With her advocating hard for me the case did settle.

After my 24 year marriage came crashing down around me I had no idea where to turn or what to do next. As a man, about the only thing that I knew was that I wanted to hire a female attorney with a lot of experience. A friend of mine recommended that I reach out to Meg Oliver to have her guide me through the divorce process. I am so glad that I did. Meg is a unique blend of experience, great communication skills and patience. In the end Meg Oliver negotiated a fair agreement with me ex-wife's lawyer. I was pleased with the outcome and highly recommend Meg to represent you in your divorce.

I had met several family law attorneys in the past through the Montgomery County Bar Association, and 2 years later when my (ex-)husband and I decided to get divorced, she was top of mind. Before contacting her, I did still do my due diligence, researching her credentials and online reviews, including on avvo.com – an online directory of attorneys.
Dorothy had a 10/10 Avvo rating, which is based not only on client reviews, but also on recognition from the legal community, years of experience, and leadership activities. It’s not easy to get a 10/10 rating, so off I went to request a complimentary consultation from Dorothy.
After meeting and hiring Dorothy, the divorce proceeded smoothly. Dorothy did everything, from drafting the settlement agreement, making any necessary revisions, drafting and filing the “complaint” with the court, setting the court date, and then representing me at the hearing. She was always responsive, professional, and clearly an expert, and throughout the entire process. I had no doubt that I was in good hands, and I have no doubt that you will be too. I highly recommend Dorothy Fait for any of your family law needs.

Dorothy R Fait was my lawyer in an extremely difficult divorce involving child custody. She advised me throughout the process without any issues; very responsive and responsible professional. All my questions and urgent requests were answered immediately, she never made me wait - which is a very important factor in high conflict cases. She paid a lot of attention to details and brought out important facts in the argument, without getting into petty exchanges.
She protected mine and my children's interest, and thanks to her I have an exceptionally detailed settlement agreement and a court order that covers all aspects of our life to prevent any possible issues.
Aside from that, she is a great person - she is courteous in the courtroom, firm with the opposing party, empathic and understanding.

I retained Dorothy R Fait for a very contentious divorce and child custody battle after beginning the process with a different attorney. Dorothy and her team always made me feel like their most important client from the thorough initial meeting all the way through the divorce settlement and beyond that to ensure the divorce decree was carried out correctly. Dorothy and her team showed their mastery of the law and the best way to navigate through several difficult issues with opposing counsel. Dorothy consistently showed her expertise in and out of the courtroom. Regardless of the forum, Dorothy is unfazed, focused and handled the defense flawlessly with a favorable outcome on every front. Throughout the proceeding months from custody trial to the divorce settlement, Dorothy and her team held firm to a successful strategy against an extremely uncooperative and bitter opposing counsel that made everything as difficult as possible in every way. Dorothy and her team always display professionalism that you can proud of and have the peace of mind that the best team is representing you.
Hire Dorothy, it will be the best decision you'll make.

Phillip was not the first attorney I contracted, but I am grateful I hired him when I did.

I hired Phil McCurdy to represent me after Firing my previous attorney, two years into a lawsuit. My previous attorney acted in a way that would make you think he was working for the other side. A friend recommended Phil to me and I wish that I asked that friend for his recommendation in the beginning. Phil was able to provide some light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. If you’re looking for an attorney, who will care, will be your advocate, and is just an overall refreshingly genuine human being; look no further, you want Phil McCurdy in your corner!

Mulligan Law has been nothing short of a pure blessing to my entire family. Mrs.Annie showed compassion and kindness throughout my process. I didn’t have to call and get information on my case. She was in constant control and the communication was amazing. I was referred to her by a coworker and I am very happy and pleased with the work she did and her staff. She was affordable and worked with my schedule throughout the process. All the mediations I had to attend were set up with ease and I didn’t feel pressured with making decisions. All my meetings were informative, she was always prepared and helpful with all the questions and concerns I had. Her professionalism was unmatched!! I am thankful I had her by my side. I got everything I needed and wanted. If you’re looking for an attorney who will fight for your rights to the end , look no further!!!! Call Annie.
Best Lawyer I’ve ever had. Thank you and your staff for all the hard work, late evenings, early morning meetings, court appointments, mediations put together to provide the best possible outcome for my family.

I got in touch with Attorney Ray based on his reviews and that little voice inside us all. I had a very ugly divorce that most other attorneys were afraid to take on, Attorney Ray went to work and got my ugly divorce done in short order, against a tough opposing attorney. Attorney Ray is the real deal. He is professional, to the point, very knowledgeable, and doesn't mince words, if you are looking for sugar coating he isn't your guy. But if you want an "A" game attorney, he's at another level compared to others I have worked with. His fees are more than fair, and Attorney Ray really cares. If you want it done right, see Attorney Donald Ray.

The entire staff at Marrison Family Law is top notch! Having been a client for 2.5 years during my DV divorce and custody case, I can say with out a doubt that I made the best choice in law firm. You can tell that every client matters to the owner Pat Marrison and the firm. Mark Bosworth and his paralegal Shannon have been nothing short of outstanding through the entire process- and I did not have an easy divorce case. They handled every aspect of the case with professionalism, support and are both extremely knowledgeable and well versed in the process of family law cases. I was awarded full custody of my children and Mark and his team fought to make sure that was the outcome. I cannot recommend them enough! When you are going through a hard situation and need someone strong by your side, Marrison Family Law is the best choice!

A friend referred me to Dominic J. Perrino and told me that he was helping her navigate a contentious adversary who was negatively affecting her children and was causing great distress for her whole family. She told me that Mr. Perrino was compassionate, highly efficient, helped her with the documentation, and listened carefully to her needs.
I had spent several months contacting about 42 divorce lawyers in the Colorado Springs area, but I finally decided to go with Marrison Family Law because of my friend’s recommendation.
Mr. Perrino did not disappoint — far from it, and he came up with strategies for me that solved seemingly impossible problems, saved me tens of thousands of dollars, and was able to assist me in negotiating a divorce settlement that made the difference between walking away with enough to start my life over or ending up in a protracted fight and financially catastrophic outcome which is the likely fate I was facing.
My paralegal, Rene, has given me appropriate, focused attention, responded quickly and efficiently to every inquiry I’ve made, at the same time that she and my lawyer have worked very hard to keep my fees to a minimum.
As a result, I was able to get through this extremely painful and harrowing process in roughly 100 days with competent, caring support. I have full confidence that they are fully invested in my success and truly care about my well-being.
A professional staff member at Marrison Family Law answers the phone every single time I have called during business hours. They respond to my e-mail communications usually within the same day or no later than the next business day. They are consistently professional, courteous, and efficient.
I am eternally grateful to Dominic, Rene, the support staff, and Ms. Marrison for providing a level of personalized and professional service that I would never have been able to find at a big-name law firm. Also, unlike other practices I have researched, they do not have a policy of intentionally aggravating emotions in order to create conflict between the parties so that they can increase their charges. Quite the opposite, they were completely cooperative to my insistence that I maintain a stance of peace during the divorce process. They made sure that I didn’t incur any unnecessary charges so my total divorce costs were about a third of what I expected — and I am fantastically happy about that. I must also give credit where credit is due; this outcome heavily depended upon the cooperation of the other party to a peaceful process.
Everyone has a unique situation and experience with their divorce, so your experience might be different but I highly recommend Marrison Family Law because they are truly focused on my success, are cost-conscientious, and they were able to provide efficient, personalized, creative strategies for problem solving.
Finally, and most importantly, I believe that my friend’s referral to Mr. Perrino was Divinely directed. Thanks be to God for His provision, protection, and guidance!
Blessings,
An eternally grateful client

Our family has been dealing with a very contentious, complex, divorce and custody situation. Shannon doesn’t practice in our geographic area but she agreed to consult with our lawyer. Shannon Stein was professional, knowledgeable, kind, and thorough. She was available to answer questions and was always quick with her responses.

I had the privilege of working with Shannon for legal advice during my divorce proceedings, and I couldn't be more pleased with her services. While I didn't require full representation in court, I leaned on her expertise and guidance heavily, and I was consistently impressed.
Shannon demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism and efficiency throughout our interactions. One thing that stood out was her responsiveness; she was always quick to address my questions and concerns, providing clarity and peace of mind during a challenging time. It was evident that she had a deep understanding of family law, and her ability to explain complex legal matters in a way that was easy to comprehend was greatly appreciated.
What truly set Shannon apart was her impeccable organization and attention to detail. She had her act together from the start, ensuring that every document and piece of advice was on point. This level of diligence not only saved me time but also instilled confidence in her abilities.
I wholeheartedly recommend Shannon to anyone seeking legal counsel during divorce or family law matters. Her expertise, responsiveness, and professionalism made a significant difference in my experience, and I am grateful for her support during this challenging period in my life. Thank you, Shannon, for your outstanding service and guidance.

I interviewed several lawyers and all were great, however what set Shana apart from the rest is she understood my case and fears and showed she wanted to help me protect my children. She knew that my children were my priority and she never lost sight of that.
Together we accomplished my goal at 110%. Her team she has behind her is responsive and very well orginized and never delayed a filing or delivery of documents to me and communicated the opposing sides responses to me immediatly.
I filded just before covid lock down of 12/2019 so this took a bit longer than she had said it would--court being shut down, this was not something she could foresee, regardless we still worked on bulding our case and getting all documents shared--she used the time of shut down to orginize and stratigize my case.
When I felt like it wasnt going well, she assured me of the process and that we were on target.
Trust her and the process!! It might take a bit longer than you want--but when there are children and assets involved it takes a lawyer who is calm and expirenced--Thats Shana!!

Shana is a compassionate and a very professional attorney. She helped me navigate my divorce as well as a lawsuit later on. Shana is very objective, straight forward and makes the whole process very smooth. She made sure the process moved along fast, explained the process well to make sure I have a full understanding of my rights. She is not rushing to lawsuits, and has a very calming and soothing personality, which make the client very comfortable in a middle of chaos.
I highly recommend her.

Shana Vitek ad. her team represented me in finalizing my divorce. Due to Covid, the Cook County courts appearances were all conducted via Zoom.
Shana was diligent, thorough, and persistent in getting through the frustrating process of working with the court system via Zoom Calls. The presiding judge was unreasonable, rude, and quick to set unnecessary continuances. Thankfully, Shana and her team remained focused and resilient and were able to finalize my divorce. I would strongly recommend using Shana Vitek if you are considering a divorce.

Christine was the attorney I wish I had from the beginning. She is everything you would expect from a great attorney: professional, respectful, responsive, informative, and direct. She also really cared, and invested herself in the case, which is not something I can say about previous attorneys I’ve had.
After getting nowhere for years, I finally got a huge win in parenting time thanks to Christine. She really helped navigate the messiness of the case and made sure I understood everything she presented. She helped keep me focused on the big picture despite the emotional roller coaster the whole process can be. I highly recommend her and will absolutely hire her again if necessary.

Christine Thielo is not only an amazing attorney but an amazing person as well. I felt as though she genuinely cared for my situation and worked hard to get me the best possible outcome, which she did! She represented me in my DV and child custody case and I couldn’t have asked for better. I came to her with quite a bit of history and just one month prior to my next court date. She put the time and effort to review and become completely familiar with my entire case in order to adequately represent me, which she did a great job doing. She explains very thoroughly every option that is available to you and is very honest with each outcome. She is experienced, knowledgeable, professional, and tough! She stands her ground and is not intimidated by anyone or anything. She, or her assistant Linda who is also amazing, gets back to you almost immediately. She went above and beyond my expectations, I can’t describe how grateful and thankful I am for her hard work and dedication.

I originally tried to contact a different lawyer to handle my case. When they didn't respond in a timely fashion I found Ms. Peacock. I am very happy things turned out that way. I was beyond impressed with her knowledge of the law and how it applied to me. My case was unique but her expertise and knowledge made it a little more routine than difficult. I was very happy with how she worked to got me the results I wanted. If you need any kind of family law representation do not hesitate to retain Angela Peacock.

Angela Peacock was wonderful to work with! I did not know much about the legal process relating to the divorce, but Angela took the stress off of my shoulders and made everything easy for me. She was very quick to listen and to respond, we were ahead of all of our deadlines. Both Angela and her paralegal were so kind and empathetic. Thankfully, my case was pretty straightforward, and the judge signed off on our divorce settlement quickly, thanks to Angela putting everything together for us. I would highly recommend Angela if you are searching for an attorney to help you navigate the divorce process. She knew the answers to all of my questions, is very detailed-oriented, hardworking, does not waste your time or your retainer and she's extremely confident. I'm so thankful for her help! I wish you the best and all the success, Angela!

Quiero recomendar al Abogado Ángel Leal y su grupo de trabajo por hacer una maravillosa gestión en mi proceso migratorio, ya que fui víctima de estafa por otro grupo de abogados, el cual me hicieron perder mi estatus legal aquí dentro de los EEUU, con un alto índice de probabilidades de que fuera deportado, pero gracias a Ángel y su equipo tan profesional pudieron solventar mi situación y lograron regresarme mi estatus demostrando que realmente fui víctima. De verdad lo recomiendo como uno de los mejores abogados que puede haber.

I worked with Traci on establishing paternity and requesting 100% physical custody of my 3 year old daughter. Her mother has been battling severe mental illness and is not capable of parenting at the moment. Traci was incredible to work with. Top notch communication, always responded quickly to any questions I had. Worked with Tara as well during the final hearing and Tara was well prepared and knew all of the facts like the back of her hand. I would 100% recommend Traci Koster and her team. I couldn't envision the process having gone any better. Don't mess around with something so important. Call Koster Legal and you won't be disappointed.

I am so glad I chose Traci and her team to represent me. Table stakes in a divorce is competency in the law. The difference maker for me is Traci's approach -- she is calm, she is fair, and she brings those qualities and approach to all parties in the process -- me, opposing counsel and by proxy, my ex. The impact of that to the journey was huge. Traci and her team calmly guided me through the most disruptive event in my life. Grateful.

Divorce is death. Coping with death can be very stressful. This happened to me. Thankfully, and providentially, I was introduced to family law attorney, Traci Koster, to help guide me through this very difficult time. She was exactly what I needed. Tough, authentic, realistic, sympathetic, detailed but simentanesouly able to look at the wholistic picture; reminding me of the end game - she was great! She, by far, sets a standard for other attorneys to follow, especially in regard to leading in integrity. She fought for me when I did not feel like fighting any longer. As a result of her diligence, she won what I wanted and even obtained far more than I could have ask for at the end of my divorce. My children and I will forever be grateful for Traci's unmatched advocacy!

First of all, I want to shout out a huge THANK YOU to Mr. Joshua Barreda and his wonderful staff for all of their support and professionalism! Josh, the day finally came for us and it was worth every tear and all the ups and downs of this extremely life changing case!
Mr. Barreda took our case on behalf of my daughter and our precious, innocent grandson. Upon our first consultation, Josh took the challenge of this unique , and complex case . We had been advised prior by family court attorneys that this case could not be done and we would have very little chance of winning.
My grandson needed an advocate on his behalf to keep him safe, physically and emotionally, from an absent parent that abandoned him since birth, due to the arrest and criminal charges and a lengthy and prolonged 6 yr criminal trial with his co-defendant.
We filed a private severance case and due to the other party's excuse/ argument, it set the case as a precedence. If won by opposing party, it would have altered past and future cases for the worst, including adoptions.
During the lengthy trial we united and prevailed as a family in prayer and support and Josh stood strong by our side during this difficult time. He was amazing and we knew he would do everything he could. Josh, did an excellent job in providing exceptional and applicable case text to support the written argument as well as applying it to tear down the defendants defense arguments. Many false allegations and weak excuses by the defendant were brought to light by Mr. Barreda. Josh, took the matter to heart and he knew the seriousness of this matter and the injustice. He dug deep in the final days and used his knowledge and skills along with his tenacity to WIN on behalf of our family! I can say that we truly believe he saved their lives!
Words cannot express our gratitude. We are so truly grateful to God for sending us Mr. Barreda. I would also like to say this, for those that are fighting against the odds and protecting your children (we were told by many the verdict we received was equivalent to obtaining a death sentence) nothing is impossible!
Mr. Barreda and his law firm obtained that victory. They believed with us and put it into action on behalf of our family! When others told us it was too late and impossible, Josh, had a different opinion and was fearless and bold enough to take it and advocate for the innocents. He knew the law and was aggressive when needed. Needless to say, I highly, highly recommend Barreda Law! We put our most precious things in his hands , our children!

Divorce is the hardest possible thing I've dealt with especially involving kids. I had taste buds taken off my mouth not wanting to eat due to this matter of divorce to crying that my now ex-wife would let me see my kids.
I left her so she had an avenue which is making my life hard through attorneys to get back. Long story story short I hired a cheap attorney versus not having one worst mistake ever... Hired Andrea she gets to the point divorced in record time. She doesn't play games and plays devils advocate as she knows the system. Best thing she advised to me is that she said to me with ease. "Your the same person going through a divorce with a different last name" She's a 10 Star. Me and my ex wife next to me. She turned a 14 month battle and converted in 90 days.

The Reid Law Group worked with me during the most difficult time of my life. The were compassionate from the start. The best part is their empathy is matched with their wisdom (which is invaluable during this process) and knowledge. I have worked with lawyers in my professional life but never have I had a entire team support and guide me the way Andrea and her team did. They were there every step of the way. If you want a strong advocate who will create a strategy that helps you achieve your individual goals... there is no one better. They understand that clients may have different desired outcomes and they work with you to help you meet these goals. Everything is explained thoroughly but ultimately they want what is best for your situation. I truly feel blessed that a friend (a-highly respected family law attorney) recommended her to me. Thank you for leading me to the best outcome for me in a remarkably trying situation. Forever thankful!

From my first phone conversation with Tiffany I knew I was going to hire her. She is straight to the point and absolutely amazing at her job.
It took less than 6 months from the time I hired her for my divorce to be finalized. She was exceptionally helpful since I am stationed overseas and was able to handle everything for me. She was always able to answer my questions and make sure I understood the whole process.
