Karyn is an absolute saint! I obtained another lawyer when I was first served with divorce papers-needless to say he was absolutely horrible. A friend provided me with Karyn's contact information and I switched attorneys mid-way because she was that good. She is professional and truly listens. She fights for her clients! She is extremely responsive if you reach out to her with any type of question or concern-even on weekends/nights she responds. Her staff are also excellent regarding response time! I'm so sorry I didn't know about Karyn when I first obtained a lawyer. Having Karyn as my attorney was a game changer for me and I am so appreciative for all her hard work and efforts fighting for me. If you have concerns about this attorney-DON'T, retain her right away she is that good! She doesn't string you along to try and nickel and dime you! She wants what's best for her clients in the shortest amount of time! She truly was a godsent!! The BEST of the BEST!!! If it wasn't for Karyn I would've had a very different result and I'm thankful every day that I found her! She is the real deal!!!

Sometimes in life we can unfortunately come up against a moment that will impact us and our family greatly that we also have little to no control over and it is left in the hands of people we don't know in a courtroom; every parent's worst nightmare. These unknown moments leave us feeling helpless, hopeless, and in a constant state of anxiety and fear going up against the unknown. As people unaware of the courtroom process, our rights, and especially during and after the hands of abusive and controlling relationships ridiculed and threatened with constant accusations, lies, stories, false statements, gaslighting, slander, and fear, Karyn Villar brings you strength, hope, and the ability to feel like you can breathe again. She is honest, fair, straight forward, all while still somehow making you laugh and/or smile. Karyn gives you strength when you feel you don't have any, makes you open your eyes to see you no longer have to be afraid and cower, she makes you finally feel heard. She is human. Someone who is fierce in the courtroom yet you can speak as if you are speaking to a friend uncensored and comfortable while sharing your story, unjudged, and feeling protected. Karyn's in-depth knowledge of the law is unparalleled. I have witnessed numerous attorneys quote laws inaccurately to try to persuade the court and go against Karyn and she would immediately come back with the proper quoting of the law and how it pertained or did not pertain to what they were speaking of. “Though she be but little, she is fierce.” I would, have, and will always continue to recommend her services to anyone that needs an attorney. Although I myself have not needed her anymore, I have had many friends and family who have used her to this day and have felt the same as I. Listening to a friend's recent story, I felt compelled to share and write this review. Thank you from all of us.

As my bill was reaching the sky and I was being talked in circles it became very clear that this attorney is for someone other than her clients. Mostly she takes a man's side even it is against her client who is paying her. She gives misinformation and guides you to do things that will benefit the person who is ruining your life and clearly a monster before she does what is ethical and decent. I was constantly told what his rights were and what my rights were not. The part of the discussions that were my rights became blurry under her interpretation. In one minute you are given hope that justice will be done and in the next second you are being told the person lying cheating and stealing while ruining your life deserves everything. The Bar Association will not be pleased with this. Upon legal advice from someone who cares for their clients especially women and children she is giving incorrect information and withholding the law to benefit the person she should be defending you from.

Karyn Villar is an amazing matrimonial attorney. She provided me with excellent representation that lead to a fair an equitable divorce settlement; not an easy task when men tend to get the raw end of the deal. She is an excellent trial attorney as well as negotiator. Her intelligence and tenacity set her apart from her peers. She is well respected by judges and opposing attorneys. Her billing practices are very reasonable and she is cognizant to spend your money wisely to get the most of your legal dollar. Most importantly she puts the needs of the children involved above all else. Karyn saved my family, and allowed me to move on to a better life. I highly recommend Karyn Villar for any and all of your familial legal needs.

Karyn is very knowledgeable of the most current divorce laws. She’s very honest, will tell you what exactly what you’re entitled to without promising the world. She knows the Suffolk judicial system and I have found she and her staff are dedicated and committed to your case. Easy to get a hold of her and quick reply’s if not readily available. Would highly recommend.

I have been dealing for 6 years with a very uncooperative Ex-Girlfriend who I share a 8 year old child with. I can tell you that being a man at times in family court is tough. I have had many battles over the years just to spend more time with my little girl and have been mildly successful, that is until I met Karyn.
It was an ugly trial but at the end of the day, after the smoke had cleared I have true joint custody with triple the amount of time with my daughter than I originally had, including school holiday breaks.
I cannot thank this amazing women enough for what she has done for me and my family.
I would highly recommend this amazing woman!

I would highly recommed Karyn. She has successfully litigated several cases for me including matrimonial, custody and support. She knows the law and fights to get a just outcome. She was fearless during my hearing and did a thorough job with my testimony and cross examination. I am so thankful that I was referred to her 10 years ago. She is excellent!

Kareyn has been my attorney from the start. My separation, my trial, Children custody and 4 appeals from my ex on custody of the children. She will back down from no one and is a real fighter for her clients in a court room. By the help of Karyn I have custody of my 2 children. You need a fighter and a winner Karyn is your choice. I am forever graceful for her.

Karyn helped me through a rough divorce and custody battle -- she gave me the best advice at every step of the way. She knows the law in and out, is not intimidated and if your case is going to go to trial, then she's a great trial attorney -- she's honest, reliable, and will get the job done, the right way! She's terrific! Would absolutely recommend her.
