I contacted Julia, when my ex had just threatened divorce. I'm so grateful that I took the time to call, get the info I needed and feel some peace. I had hoped that I would never need to call back. However, when he pulled the trigger, I was on it and Julia was ready to go. She gave me a very realistic honest picture of what to expect, as best that anyone can do, not knowing how my ex and the Opposing team would show up. In Mediation, Julia was unflappable!! The OC was yelling and screaming (when we they had to interact) and Julia was calm and cool. When his team tried to pull punches, she was right there was an answer and proposing things for my defense. for example, when my Ex wanted to divide the upfront alimony into two payments - 6 months apart, within nanoseconds, she agreed "with interest and here's that interest amount as of today". Wow, that alone yielded me an additional $11K in my settlement. She was timely in her replies and her legal assistant was amazing to work with. We had TWO long days of mediation, and she was incredible throughout the entire time! I'm oh so grateful!

Julia is literally a Godsend-- I was at my breaking point facing criminal contempt charges on a short-term (7 year) no children divorce proceedings -- 6 years of depositions and 19 Request for Production of Documents (no privacy ever- had to provide my credit card and bank statements every 4 months) I was beaten down and severely depressed not to mention the financial stress of 6 years of contentious divorce hearings and two trials and an appeal later-- Julia came into my life to defend me on the Criminal Contempt charges- yes, I was facing 6 months- to 1 year in jail for not being able to make money during COVID and pay the Temp Support Order which had not been in place for 6 years.. What is Temporary about that? I was very frustrated and lacked confidence in the legal process, courts and lawyers when Julia asked me to trust her. This was easier said than done as I had heard those same words from four (4) previous attorneys who all made my case worse-- not better. Julia held my hand and allowed me to cry and be frustrated while continuing to move forward cleaning up the mess that was created by previous counsel and a court system that was not caught up to dealing with a Pandemic. 14 months after meeting Julia-- she had cleaned up the mess and officially ended the 6 plus years and Malicious prosecution from my Ex Wife's attorney who only saw Dollars in his eyes when he saw me. I have the luxury now of looking back in hindsight and ask myself often how much different the last 6 years would have been had I known and hired Julia from the start? Dont make the mistake I made - use this review as a "teachable moment" and take advantage of the hundreds of thousands of dollars that could have went to my retirement instead of opposing counsel's pocket.

I am so grateful that I hired Julia Best Chase! She truly took care of my needs during a difficult divorce. Her experience and brilliant mind leads her to think outside of the box for each situation as needed. And more than that, she has a tremendous heart for her clients! This is what she did more me. Thank you Julia. You are a Godsend.

I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you, Ms. Julia! After your office took over my case, I began to feel secure and confident, for the first time. I truly appreciate all the help, support, and guidance, I received from you, Stephanie, and all of your staff members who helped me reach the finish line. I am so relieved after 7 years of expensive and brutal litigation, my case is finally over. For the first 5 years, I had different attorneys representing my case and I lost a lot during that time. It wasn't until after you took over my case, that I was able to protect the most important aspects of my life, my son, and the finances that I have to start a new journey. Your experience and advice are exceptional! I cannot thank you enough for your wonderful support and help!

Julia is great. She helped me walk through a hard, confusing, frustrating process that I wanted no part of. However she explained the process well, walked through step by step, listened to complaints, frustrations, crazy questions and was very available, patient, calm (when I was not), and fair. I pray you don't have to go through this process, however, if regrettably you do, Julia will work for you in a professional, courteous, timely, constructive way.

Julia did an excellent job on my divorce case. It was not an easy case. The father was being quite difficult. I hired her after I had hired a different lawyer, and I needed to change lawyers. She accepted me. And my divorce was ugly! She did a good job :)

It was difficult going through my case during COVID but all in all she was awesome during mediation and lead me through the whole process with ease.

I appreciated Julia’s direct and candid responses. Her ‘no nonsense’, professional and honest approach was refreshing. She was accessible and provided just enough’hand holding’ when I needed it. She was patient in explaining the legal step-by-step process of divorce and did a fabulous job of explaining the various legal jargon in a man on the street way!

Julia is very straight forward, honest and fierce. She handled my case with professional courtesy, superb knowledge and confidence. She worked around my erratic work schedule and kept me informed all the way. Her office staff is efficient and compassionate. I felt comfortable that my best interest was at the forefront at all times. Thank you Julia and team for giving me my life back and an outlook to a brilliant future.

Julia Chase Best helped me through a very difficult time in my life. When I first came to her I was indecisive on what course of action and what alternatives were available to protect my assets and earnings as well as my marriage. She suggested a post nuptial that would establish guidelines while we worked on our problems. Unfortunately, after 5 years, I came back to seek a final divorce. She not only walked me through the many steps of the divorce, but she also provided a moral compass, when my feelings got in the way of progress. She was patient and made herself available when I needed guidance or a listening ear as I processed the failed marriage. Her expertise and knowledge of the complex legal issues helped me to see the bigger picture and kept me calm during the many steps needed to accomplish my goals. She was not only my legal counsel, she became my trusted confidant. I am eternally grateful.

Choosing Julia was the best decision after getting served my injunction. I was overwhelmed with what could happen if this wasn't dismissed and her compassion for my situation is something you can't buy. Most importantly, she is an experienced, organized, dedicated, honest, and meticulous lawyer. Julia explained the entire processes of trial and prepared me well for the big day. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer!

Julia was so skilled in her expertise in helping my ex wife and I come to a fair and acceptul resolution of our marriage . She performed an in depth financial analysis to quide us on what would be fair . She reviewed our original draft line by line to make sure there were no errors or loopeholes . Finally her advice helped us resolve the dissolution of our marriage in record time while not sacrificing attention to detail . I highly recommend her helping you throw a difficult time .
