Listening is such an undersung skill in the legal profession. Ditto helping the client not feel like an idiot. Amy has both skills in spades. They're a nice complement to her legal acumen. When I work with Amy, she patiently walks me through my options in language I understand. And I always feel she's acting in my best interest.

I had a difficult family law case. Amy was organized and patient with me when I took a while to get all of the info she needed. She kept me on task and our result was better than expected. Highly recommended.

I have trusted Amy to handle my child custody situation since 2008. She is always available to answer any questions I have and gives great unbiased advice. She got me through a very stressful time in my life. She is a great family law attorney!

Our divorce was not contentious so it was not a difficult case. I was most impressed that Amy recognized this and tried to streamline the required procedures to minimize costs. I was quite happy with the result.

I don’t usually write reviews and I don’t think reviews are appropriate until you have had the full experience. I've had the full experience. I’m an older guy. Amy was the second attorney I hired in my painful divorce, but she was a keeper. I hired Amy after a bad family court decision that was followed by a conversation with my previous attorney which left me feeling isolated and dumbfounded. This bad decision put me way behind the 8-ball and created more stress than I could handle. This was a nasty divorce of a long marriage and it ended up going to trial and almost getting appealed. I also had to endure numerous false accusations of domestic violence, stealing community property, perjury, and other false statements from my ex. I’m not going to beat around the bush. The bottom was the worst time of my life but I’m clear of that now. After some time to reflect, I am very fortunate Amy took my case and helped me dig out from the hole I was in. It was a long, and at the time, painful process. With her consistent strategy, integrity, leadership and teamwork over a period of several years it all paid off. She didn't always say what I wanted to hear but her advice was always in my best interest. Among other things (probably too specific to post publicly), she was even able to help me get financial relief when my ex refused to return property. I wish I had been with Amy from the start. I can’t thank her enough for being a key part in the larger process of turning my life around. She deserves more than five stars.

Amy was recommended by a friend of a friend, and I’m so grateful she took my case. Though it’s been a long battle, she has remained dedicated to helping us and has been available for urgent needs when they arise. Amy is tough in the courtroom yet still remains ethical. I so appreciate her work for us. Could not recommend her more highly!

Going into my divorce, I was worried that the process would be stressful and confusing. Hiring Amy as my divorce attorney turned out to be the best choice that I could've made during the entire process. Amy was knowledgeable, efficient in her communications, and most importantly, empathetic towards me. She was very understanding, and patiently walked me through any questions that I had. Amy helped me finish the divorce with a settlement that I was satisfied with, and made the entire process much less stressful for me. I would definitely recommend hiring her for any divorce-related cases.

Ms Franklin Bihary handled my divorce proceedings in 2015, and I cannot speak highly enough of her. She was always professional and very responsive to my emails and phone calls. She always kept me in touch with progress and developments. It is totally due to Ms Franklin Bihary that I was awarded a generous financial settlement, a workable parenting plan, and a favorable asset allocation. I was particularly impressed that she dealt with some contentious issues with patience and firmness, and was a strong negotiator. I am very much indebted to her, for making a stressful process as painless as possible. I highly recommend her as a divorce lawyer.

I had been working on my own without an attorney when I found out my ex had gotten an attorney without telling me as a way to get the upper hand. Upon engaging Amy, she quickly assessed my situation and immediately knew where risk was. She was thorough and pragmatic and always working toward a long-term solution that put the kids first, something I very much value. Additionally, divorce is extremely emotional so having someone compassionate that you can count on in your corner is critical. I very much appreciated Amy's complete responsiveness and the fact that she collaborated with me every step of the way. I truly felt like I had a partner during the worst time of my life and would highly recommend her.

Amy has the knowledge to handle your case in the best possible manner. She will inform you of your rights and be responsive to all your questions. She will keep you informed of all pertinent information regarding your case. She will fight for your rights.

I very much appreciated Amy's help with my case. She was attentive and listened carefully to all aspects that I told her and made me feel like she had all the time in the world to help me. She communicated very clearly and professionally and always helped me understand all that was happening and what my options were. I felt like she had a full understanding of my case and was able to represent it competently in court.

Best family law attorney I have ever used. She is knowledgeable, able to work with difficult passive-aggressive personalities. She gets the job done and she gets excellent results for her clients.
