I hired Laila to represent me in my divorce after twenty-seven years of marriage. I feel that, with Laila as my attorney, I received excellent legal representation. Her expertise in divorce law and professionalism are top notch. She iss very knowledgeable and helped me through many difficult situations that arose during my divorce case. She and her skilled team were very prompt with their correspondence and kept me updated throughout the entirety of my case. I strongly recommend Laila to anyone seeking a highly competent divorce attorney!

I can't speak highly enough about my experience with Pervaiz & Harley. Ms. Pervaiz is sharp, savvy, knowledgeable, straight to the point, and easy to talk to and work with. She made this process as pain-free as possible. I really like that this firm uses a web portal for sharing documentation and messaging. The portal was simple to use and Ms. Pervaiz was always responsive; it made communication so fast and easy. A great way to bring the legal profession into the modern era.

Couldn't ask for a better outcome.

Gretchen Taylor did a wonderful job communicating with me, she is professional, and well organized. Gretchen Taylor would be a exceptional choice for your legal defense.

In 2017, I unexpectedly found myself working with Chidinma Harley on my divorce. She was highly knowledgeable, realistic, honest, and also compassionate. She was patient as I worked through both my legal issues, as well as my pain and confusion of the whole situation. She enabled me to focus on what really mattered, and was good at strategically planning what happens next, a range of ALL available options, and guidance on what are the most effective options to chose from. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in a difficult legal situation. You will be treated like a person, and you will be given excellent legal advice.

Hired Attorney Pervaiz earlier this year to handle a legal matter and had a pleasant experience. They were very professional, diligent and responsive throughout the process. I highly recommend them for any legal services you need.

I hired attorney Laila Raheen, to represent me in my recent divorce and I am pleased with my selection of Ms. Raheen and Livesay & Myers. My first meeting with Ms. Raheen was in the office and it put my mind at ease, and confirmed that I was making the right decision by proceeding with the divorce. She is extremely professional and explained the process to me in a very straightforward way. Most of the paperwork required was sent and received via email and communication was responsive, intelligent, and helpful. I also worked with paralegal, Ms. Taryn Arp, who was very organized and kept the process moving forward. Once all paperwork was in, the process moved extremely quickly. I was expecting to receive a court date months after submitting paperwork, but instead I received an email very soon after stating my divorce had been finalized. I was quite pleasantly surprised at how simple and fast it was completed. Now, it could be that because we are in a pandemic, and my case was simple (childfree and assets already separated) that it was accelerated, I am not sure. Another benefit was that the costs were reasonable, and invoices were itemized in 10-minute increments, so the process was open and transparent (you will not be overcharged). In all, I would highly recommend Laila Raheen to anyone looking for a fair, professional, responsive, and efficient attorney with expert guidance.

Laila Raheen represented me during my divorce, and did a fantastic job of it. I started with another lawyer at the same firm, and when she departed I was lucky enough to have my case transferred to Ms. Raheen. She took great care to understand my situation and my desire to work out a reasonable settlement without being adversarial. She was always available when I needed to communicate with her, and explained things in detail when I needed to understand them clearly. She negotiated skillfully with my wife's lawyer, who attempted to bully and bluff on too many occasions, and by her hard work we were able to settle without going to court, resulting in an agreement that was to my advantage, without being harsh or unfair to my now ex-wife. At all times, I felt like she was working for my best interests, in comparison to my wife's lawyer, who often seemed to be steering his client in such a way as to maximize his billable hours. In addition to doing a great job, Ms. Raheen was very pleasant, personable, and easy to work with. In all this, she was ably assisted by her associate Jenny Huchler, and her paralegal Taryn Arp, both of whom were dedicated, skilled, and always on top of things. In fact, I was very impressed by the culture of the firm (Livesay & Myers), since all the attorneys I met there seemed to support each other in their work and take the responsibility of mentoring junior associates very seriously. I would wholeheartedly recommend Laila and her firm for any work that needs doing.

I retained Ms. Raheen in 2019 to assist me with my separation and divorce. Ms. Raheen was extremely professional in every way. Her advice and advocacy were exceptional. I always felt that she and her staff kept me up-to-date and well informed. In a meeting with opposing counsel and my soon-to-be ex-husband, Ms. Raheen was a fierce defender of my rights and tirelessly worked on my behalf to negotiate a fair and just settlement. I would highly recommend her services to anyone needing a knowledgeable attorney.
