I interviewed several attorneys before choosing Elinor Hitt to represent me in my divorce. From the interview throughout the process I was impressed by her professionalism and attention to detail combined with a caring attitude. Communication among her team was seamless. I can’t speak highly enough about her and would recommend her to anyone seeking a divorce attorney.

From start to finish my experience with Warner Bates was extraordinary. The whole team worked seamlessly together so I was never lost between paralegal, and attorneys. They communicated all relevant aspects of my case to each other so didn’t have to retell my story and reask my questions each time I reached out to them. They guided my through gathering documents and prepared me for what to expect at my hearing. I never felt alone. Very knowledgeable and experienced, and absolute professionals at all times. They made a very difficult experience as easy as they possibly could.

I can't say enough good things about Charlie Crowe! He did a wonderful job representing me through my divorce. He was caring, always available if needed, and very thorough.

Elinor Hitt and her team was fantastic to work with. She is calm, thorough, tough and left no stone unturned. She was aggressive with what I wanted and knew how to get it in mediation. Elinor was a great ally to have in my corner through the toughest time in my life. The staff returned calls and emails quickly and prepared documents in the same fashion. I couldn't have made a better choice. I do not hesitate to recommend her.

Warner Bates was highly recommended to me by another retired family law attorney a few years ago. I worked with Elinor Hitt then, whose knowledge, professionalism, cool head, and sincere desire to help our family through a trying time was exactly what we needed. More recently, when we could no longer resolve our differences as a couple, she and Allison Kessler helped us navigate a fair negotiation for our divorce. This team used my retainer wisely, provided great advice, and helped me keep my cool so that our family could start a fresh foot forward, with as little animosity as possible and without devastating legal debt. I have, and will continue to recommend Elinor Hitt and Allison Kessler. They are knowledgeable, compassionate, cool-headed- and will keep your family's best interest in mind.

Our daughter recently completed the navigation of a particularly acrimonious divorce. Fortunately for our Family we had a steady helmsman at the tiller of our boat. Elinor Hitt, J.D. and her legal team were superb! Specifically, Elinor brings to the legal war room an adherence to the five Ps; Prior Preparation Prevents Poor Performance. Couple that with confidence, competency and credibility and you have a warrior on your side in a legal battle. We had an excellent outcome in our particular case thanks to the skill sets and absolute professionalism of Elinor and her Team. Should you have a need for a great divorce attorney the first call I would make is to Elinor Hitt of the Offices of Warner Bates

I worked with Elinor Hitt during my separation and divorce. She was very understanding of my wants and needs and worked by my side to ensure it was all done! It honestly felt like I was working with a friend throughout the whole process which made what is a difficult time, easier to navigate through.

Charles Crowe has done a wonderful job of representing me during my divorce proceedings. He was both thorough and caring as we were managing a difficult personal event in my life. After my divorce was finalized I was put in a position to have to do the parenting plan over again (to my favor) and he guided the process as opposing counsel drug their feet and stalled the proceedings. The end result was I am the primary parent to our son and I thank Charlie for getting this to a happy conclusion for me and my son. Sean Flinn

I am so appreciative to Jim McGinnis for his expert handling of my divorce. During this trying and difficult time, Jim was supportive, encouraging, optimistic yet realistic, calming, intuitive, and compassionate, and offered wise and well-thought out council and advice. My outcome was better than I could have anticipated, and I believe fair to all parties. Jim is particularly resourceful and well-connected when it came to involving other needed area experts, and anyone I dealt with at the Warner Bates firm, and any other experts Jim recommended were all competent, pleasant, professional, and understanding. I could not recommend Jim and his firm more highly.

Charles Crowe is simply the best divorce attorney anyone could expect. I had a great experience to work out my divorce issues with Charles. He is caring,understanding and patient. I strongly recommend him to be your divorce attorney.

Charlie is awesome! I hired him to represent me in a divorce after a bad experience with my previous attorney. Charlie has a pragmatic approach and was a straight shooter from day one. He helped me identify things that were important to me in my case and also things that I could let go of. He counseled me through one of the toughest times in my life and I don't hesitate to recommend him.
