Teresa has been very professional, insightful, and right on in her legal advice. She has maintained her calm in the center of a very adversarial and hostile divorce. I would recommend her without hesitation.

Extremely knowlegable,and when in doubt about a situation will consult with attorneys outside of her field to present you with all your options. I sleep a lot better knowing she represents me.

Teresa was able to sort through my incoherent babbling, my kids fears, their father's constant posturing and legal maneuvering, years of legal documents and a very emotionally charged situation and get the results the kids (and I) needed and wanted - which is to say, no more flying across the country to spend 4 weeks of their summer in less than safe and enjoyable circumstances. The kids spent all year worrying about their summer visit - literally from the time they returned they started worrying about the next visit. (And so did I.) I did not want them to stop seeing their father, but after several years of anxiety, bad stories, etc. felt it was time for him to come here to see them. They also were done wasting holidays with him, as he didn't actually celebrate the holidays, and meanwhile they were missing celebrating with the family, so they wanted to stop holiday visits as well. Teresa was able to talk to all of us in a meaningful way, understanding what we wanted, were afraid of, didn't want and assuring us constantly that we were not being unreasonable and in fact, that we had put up with way more than we needed to, that the law provides protection for the kids when visiting the other parent. (Previous lawyer had assured me there was nothing to be done about the situation.) I can't explain how hard I, in particular, was to work with, but Teresa was able to parse through my turmoil and determine what was going on, what needed to be done, guide me though the steps I had to take, guide the kids through their parts, and of course, prepare a valid legal defense that ultimately was agreed upon. She totally supported us, she exhibited a very clear understanding of the law and post divorce situations. She and her team were also responsive, reliable, intelligient, professional and very skillful with us and with the opposing counsel. We have had several years of peace with their new visitation plan, thanks to Teresa. She truly gave us our lives back. I have talked to her recently on a new unrelated matter and she was very helpful with that. I have recommended her to other women going through difficult divorces the past few years and they have been very happy with her. She will fight for your rights.

Teresa not only successfully navigated a very ugly and twisted divorce over a 12 month period, but she provided expert advice and counsel for the next 6 years when my ex spouse continued to attack my reputation in every conceivable way. She won every time we went before a judge - and I can't remember how many times that was. I hope I have no need of her in the future but I would call upon her in an instant.
