Very passive and not as effective as I would have hoped. After months of working with her and thousands spent for her expertise I feel as though I may have been better off alone or hiring someone else. Not much has been done to further my case.

Attorney Karen Velez is a compassionate, helpful lawyer.  She is an angel. It is unbelievable that even now I get emotional thinking about how much she helped me. My experience was that I met with her about a divorce case.  My husband and I have a child and I was done with the marriage. As a mom I was struggling with getting divorced because my child is close to her dad.  Karen met with me at her office and then spoke to me a number of times about my case.  I signed the retainer agreement and moved forward with the divorce.  I told Karen that I wanted the divorce filed and asked that it be done as soon as possible so I could start 2020 out with the process almost over.  Karen drafted the documents for my case and then we spoke one day to discuss the financial affidavit and financial documents necessary for the case because she was ready to file the paperwork with the court.  I then had my second child and as I spoke to Karen to discuss the financial documents needed for the case, I was sad and also discussed my personal situation with her. Karen listened and heard my frustration and counseled me to pause the divorce.  She said that it sounded like I wanted to give my marriage another chance and actually gave me ideas.  Real ideas on how to take a couple of weeks and discuss the problems and situation with my husband.  That night I sent Karen a text letting her know that I was so grateful that she is a mom, and human being first.  It was incredible.  She is a lawyer with a heart! Most people would not believe that a lawyer would meet with a client, sign the client, take the money and work the case,but then tell the client to hold off on that case.  Whoever heard of a lawyer having a heart?  Ultimately, I decided not to get divorced. I would recommend her to anyone! Call her.   She’s a lawyer you can trust!  

I highly recommend Karen. I went to a local lawyer that does not handle family law cases that recommended her to me. I met with Karen on a child custody matter and had lots of questions and concerns. You want a lawyer that listens to your fears and questions and addresses them. Karen is the kind of lawyer that listens, answers your questions & puts your mind at ease. She was also available to answer calls at 7 at night and meet on a Saturday at her office if that is when you can meet. She was excellent in court. Karen is a great lawyer. I recommend her to friends and to anyone with a custody, divorce, time sharing, child support, legal matter.

Karen was recommended by several people whose opinion about a lawyer's expertise highly value. What impressed me most was them saying that she helped them produce the kind of outcomes that amazed them. One of them was facing a very difficult divorce and the other a business challenge. I had a consultation with Karen and found her to be all that I would like from a lawyer. She was compassionate and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.
