Divorce can be messy, challenging, and financially and emotionally draining. I was fortunate enough to have Shay representing me through it all. Unlike the previous lawyer I had hired, who was hostile, condescending, and dismissive of my concerns, Shay took the time to listen to my needs. She was not only patient, kind, and professional, she showed compassion. She always took the time to explain everything in detail and made sure I felt supported and understood. Because she was aware of my financial constraints, she made sure that whatever step we took was financially feasible for me. She provided genuine guidance; it wasn’t just about her making money. Once Shay took over my case, the long, drawn-out process quickly came to an end. Because of Shay’s dedication and empathy as well as the fact that she’s really good at what she does, she made a difficult time much more manageable. I wish I had hired her from the very beginning. I highly recommend Shay to everyone!

Interviewing various lawyers in December 2019, I met with Shay and was surprised at how young she looked. She’s the age of my daughters and I wondered would she be capable of handling my divorce which would involve several million dollars of property and division of other assets. Did she have enough experience? Another concern of mine was that, even though I would be hiring her for her knowledge of the legal system, I wanted to actively share the bottom line decisions on how certain things would be handled. She agreed to work with me, and my divorce papers were filed in February
of 2020. This event in my life proved to be one of the most stressful dragged out events ever! Shay never buckled. January 2024 my divorce was finally resolved! She was there working with me for four very long years dealing with such a difficult advisory… I don’t think many people would have had the drive to see this through. The times when I wanted to fly off the handle, she would give me Calm and appropriate advice as to my next move. She even explained that certain things would be much more expensive thus disproving the idea that ALL attorneys are just about the money. She of course, needs to make a living, but the amount of work she did and the manner which it was done , she was worth every penny of it and then some! I kept my faith in her, and she never let me down. She guided me in the right directions all the way through, and she was very easy to work with. I actually consider her a friend at this point and she not only helped me monetarily get through this divorce, she truly was there emotionally. So don’t let her youth lead you to believe that she doesn’t have the courage, compassion, and knowledge to represent anyone in need of legal assistance.

Highly recommend The Law Offices of George M. Sanders. I worked directly with Mr. Sanders and he was extremely knowledgeable and very professional. He had my best interest in mind the entire time and made sure he wasn't wasting my time or money. Under the circumstances, I felt like I was in good hands with Mr. Sanders.

If I could give Shay a 10 Star Review I would because that's what she deserves.
I hired Shay after I already had an attorney (with another firm) for over a year that was not doing anything on my case. I have 3 little girls and I was fighting my ex-husband in court for relocation and child support. After being in court for over a year and nothing being done in my case, I hired Shay and finally things got moving. In less than a year I was able to come up with an agreement with my ex-husband (with Shay's help) and finish my court case. Shay is Definitely one of the best attorneys for family law out there. If you are looking, do not look any further. Shay is the girl for you. Thank you Shay!!! I am very very happy with your work and dedication.

After entering into a marriage completely foolishly, Shay helped me walk out relatively unscathed. When the other party turned violent and abusive - she assisted with getting an emergency order of protection and subsequently a plenary order of protection, helping me feel safe and stopping harassment of my family. Shay helped calm me down when I was receiving vile threats and made sure we acted immediately. She also has knowledge and experience with opposing counsel that was beneficial, and I could clearly see her prowess in the court room over our competition. Should need arise in the future I would definitely utilize Shay again as my representation. She is very professional but also has great bedside manner. I specifically wanted to work with a female attorney and was glad that I chose her.

The team at this firm is not only knowledgeable, but also caring and compassionate. They know family and they know and understand the law and will fight for you and while into consideration the delicate needs of the child(ren) and unique situations and complications that being married (divorced) with children can have. Shay Fromanek is the best! I some know what else to say. It was a hard process but I never felt alone or abandoned . Shay will stay in communication and make sure you understand every bit of the process.
I’m grateful for the way she represented me in this case!

Shay handled my case along with Joshua Haid. I can't say enough how much I appreciate their team. Shay is super professional, communicative and supporting. She helped me to navigate through all ups and downs of my hard case. I wholeheartedly recommend Shay to any woman going through a difficult divorce. She is incredible.

Shay was excellent. She worked hard and was understanding and helpful during this especially difficult time period. Most importantly though, the outcome of my case is exactly what I wanted and what was best for my children. I highly recommend Women's Divorce & Family Law Group.

I received a reference for Shay Formanek from a friend after I parted ways with my fathers son. After speaking with Shay, I looked no further to find an attorney that could assist me with filing child support and an allocation agreement. I was unfamiliar with the legal process. Shay explained the law, outlined in clear language the steps of the process and expectations from start to resolution of my case. She was reassuring, articulate, knowledgable and extremely effective! Shay made this process much easier and gave me peace of mind in a stressful but successful outcome. Thank you, Shay for being kind, empathetic and TOUGH! Please look no further if you are searching for an outstanding Family Law and Divorce attorney.

Shay was fantastic, my divorce case was long, emotionally and financially taxing, and simply a grind. Shay saw me through the case the entire way so I had no concerns or questions going through any point. Not only was Shay compassionate about the case, but she showed me and my situation a type of care I would expect from a friend, and it made a huge difference; it helped me work through the emotional portion that comes along with this sort of case. Additionally, Shay made sure to utilize the resources I had to make it stretch the furthest, and was fair with regard to costs.

My divorce was complicated, stressful, painful, emotional. Shay was not only my attorney but was also a rock to me. I have a son with special needs and she took this into accord from the get go. Shay fought for me and never sugar coated anything. She was honest. She told things like they were. Shay always explained the process to me of any court appearances I had to make. She would let me know what to expect and what the possible outcome would be (this helped me greatly as I have a diagnosis of anxiety). Shay also went thru any and all of my emails and concerns with a fine tooth comb--addressing all questions. Although I am relieved and thankful that this chapter of my life is behind me, I truly miss her :)

Shay is a very diligent and dedicated attorney. She and her law firm also have high ethics compared to the tactics my spouse's law firm used. She is patient and explains the divorce process well. I highly recommend Shay.
