John is a solid attorney that won't steer you in the wrong direction. He's helped me with getting my will prepared by giving me advice that is well worth while.

He is a great help .I have a very dysfunctional family. I just called him .and again great help.

I have been working with Elaine Stypula since 2015. She has helped me navigate through multiple parenting time motions. Elaine is excellent at keeping everyone focused on the things that matter and helping separate emotions when needed. She has also been aggressive when needed.

Elaine is very reliable and efficient. Her no-nonsense approach won’t waste your time or money. She is honest, caring and knowledgeable. When going through difficult times it is nice to not be taken advantage of. I Highly recommend Elaine.

She was very informative accessible reliable compassionate and understanding

she was very informative accessible reliable and patient. I truly appreciated her availability, direction and advice even after she was released as my lawyer.

I would highly recommend Elaine. She is very patient with her clients. She has excellent communication and is careful of her time to not cost you too much. My divorce was an emotionally charged process and Elaine was able to navigate it with ease. She is very honest and will be straight forward with you.

I called Elaine (amongst other attorneys) when I had questions about the online divorce process. I was frustrated and more than ready for our marriage to be over. She was so kind hearted, informative and ready to help me! She explained what could go wrong with that process and I knew I needed to hire her for the best outcome. She communicated with me every step of the way and was dedicated to helping me get the process completed swiftly and without drama. She answered every question without judgement. I felt confident knowing she was my representation. My ex also felt at ease with Elaine which helped the process move along much quicker. I will tell anyone who needs a divorce lawyer to call her.

I first worked with Karen Stewart in 2010 to update my mother-in-law's trust. She expertly and kindly walked mom (then 80) and the family through the process then and on a couple subsequent occasions when mom wanted to make updates. Of course, creating a trust is one thing but carrying it out when the person dies is quite another. When mom died in 2021, we turned again to Karen to guide us through the many steps involved in executing the trust. From very beginning, Karen was with us every step of the way - interpreting the trust, delineation of duties, quantifying assets, posting, securing an "EIN,", setting up a bank account, accounting, house sale, filing taxes, and on and on. Our family all agree that Karen was instrumental in everything going so smoothly. I have enthusiastically recommended Karen L. Stewart to people I know who want to create or amend their trust. Also, after having worked with mom's trust after her passing, I would recommend creating a trust vs. not doing so. Its existence certainly helped us avoid various issues that could be problematic. Furthermore, as I was Trustee, Karen guided me with great legal oversight and execution to minimize any future liability that could arise related to my role as Trustee. I highly recommend and endorse Karen L. Stewart for estate planning, trust creation and probate related matters.

It was a pleasure working with Elaine. Although a divorce is a difficult situation, she made the process smooth and manageable. I would highly recommend her!

When my husband deserted me and filed for divorce after decades of marriage, I felt devastated and didn't know where to turn. After some random Googling, I called Elaine based on her reviews. Believe me, they are all well-deserved. From the first consultation on Elaine gave me sound advice and encouragement. She was very responsive whenever I reached out or had a question. She explained every step of legal separation, mediation, and the division of assets. I really felt like I had an advocate in the process. Because of Elaine I received a far better settlement than if I had tried to just settle with my husband. She was also kind and compassionate, which I appreciated greatly. If you need professional, thorough, and dedicated legal help with your divorce, Elaine is the best.

I was in a custody case for parenting rights for my daughter. I had no idea what was going with any of the legal things. Elaine helped me quite a bit to make sense and assured me that we would get what we wanted! Worked with me on paying her and wasn't that expensive either! I highly recommend and will recommend to anyone who uses her!
