Kris is extremely professional and a wealth of knowledge. I would not hesitate to hire Kris, he is as good as it gets.

I have been working with Mrs. Sarah Gerow and she has been amazing. I’ve also spoken to Mr. Mark a couple times and they are both very professional, patient, very understanding of my situation. I am updated on everything even calls me to inform me of the small to major updates. Mrs. Gerow does not rush me what so ever. Her communication is amazing. With inflation and everything being so expensive she doesn’t constant ask for me to put funds in my trust fund, but respectfully reminds me when I do forget. This goes to again point out she is very understanding of any situation. I can trust her with anything and everything without feeling judge or misunderstood. I also want to point out she is a “what do you want”, “this is what I think is best for you” and not a “I think we should do this or you should go with this and agree to that”, but as well has me fully aware of the possible good and bad outcomes. This firm is definitely not a what I’m used to hearing “some do it for the money and try to win”. This firm actually cares about their client, and clients money. Lastly, 100% military friendly/ knowledgeable. Both Mrs. Gerow and Mr.Mark have been able to answer all of my questions regarding the military without any hesitation or “let me get back to you on that”. - gratefully appreciated Ms. Correa

I am a family law attorney in Rochester, New York and have worked with Kris Hilscher on multiple cases. His knowledge of military benefits is second to none. Based on his involvement as an expert in my various matters, I am always confident that my clients are maximizing their entitlements or minimizing their exposure, depending on any given situation. Kris provides a host of services and can assist any practitioner in navigating the overly complex and ever-changing world of military benefits.

Mark, Kris, Donna and the rest of the Sullivan & Hilscher Family Law team are consummate professionals that always look out for their clients' best interests. They are experienced, organized, responsive, etc. I highly recommend them.

Wow! I am a family law lawyer and we consulted with this firm for expertise on military retirement questions. I received so much in-depth information in this meeting and am very impressed with the amount of detail. We have a great plan moving forward and covered lots of unique issues that were not apparent to an experienced practitioner.

Mark and his team are spectacular! I researched lawyers/firms who were proficient with Military Law, and Mark's name kept coming up. Once I met with him, I knew undoubtedly I was in the best hands to handle my case. In a nutshell - we won our case! As a widow of a military veteran, I highly recommend Mark and his firm should you need legal representation. 5 stars!

Mark will not talk to you without a $10,000 deposit. I was told, ad nauseam, how Mark wrote 3 books on military divorce and how he is the foremost attorney concerning military divorce. After taking my case, I was shuffled off to a different attorney. One who offended the judge, used "it's a witch-hunt" as a defense, and was stumped by the opposing attorney with one piece of paper. The only difference in my life from before the trial and after the trial is I have a bill of $30,000. After all that, my attorney said it was unfair of me to say we lost....we lost. When a friend of mine was going through a divorce and asked me what lawyer to use, I gave her the phone number of the opposing counsel.

Mark Sullivan is the nationwide expert on military benefits in divorce. His ability to analyze the issue, explain the law and provide assistance to the bench and bar is unprecedented. Joan Adams Esq., Buffalo , New York

Kris has been an exceptional lawyer guiding me through many aspects of my divorce process. During my selection process Kris quickly distinguished himself as someone who cared about coming to the best possible outcome based on the circumstances of the case and his personal moral and ethical values and believes. Kris has throughout the whole process fought for my best interests without ever compromising his ethical standards. He diligently pushed for a collaborative approach trying to achieve win/win scenarios for all involved. He tried his best to keep our divorce outside the courtroom and attempted to guide us to reach a mutually acceptable agreement. When eventually we ended up having to go to court, he came with clear and focused strategies for each court date. Kris was able to give me guidance based on his experience working with other families going through similar challenges, his knowledge of the court system and cases like ours, his deep knowledge of the law, and his experience in working with other stakeholders in family law. Kris has throughout the entire process been very professional while always understanding the human aspects of the challenges we were facing and has gone out of his way to accommodate my needs. With respect to all legal fees and billing, Kris has continuously informed me of benefits, risks, and costs of every aspect of our approach so I could make informed decisions. All billing by Kris and his team has been very fair and he has always been considerate of containing my costs where it was possible and made sense. I have a deep appreciations for Kris both on a personal and professional level. I would highly recommend Kris to anyone going through a separation and who doesn’t want to lose their sanity or integrity in the process.

Kris Hilscher is a fantastic example of what every attorney should be. He's strategic, brilliant, and cares deeply about the individual needs of each client, both during and after separation/divorce. His calm and collected demeanor, wisdom, and experience supported me in every way possible through my divorce.

Kris served me very well during my custody trial. He is very knowledgeable about the system, procedure and law. He's also a very strategic planner and the ultimate ethical professional. In the end, his level headed and reassuring demeanor proved very valuable in getting me justice for my family. I would unequivocally recommend Kris for anyone seeking legal representation in the often contentious realm of family law.
