Before filing for divorce, I spoke with about a dozen attorneys in the area. I felt like some said what they thought I wanted to hear, while others seemed almost disinterested. After narrowing it down to a few, I chose Michelle because I felt like she was an excellent listener, and gave me her unbiased thoughts instead of saying things to land a new client. My case was complex, not for the finances/assets, but because of a parental rights dispute. Michelle and her team gave me excellent representation. While I no doubt am bias because of our success, I'd like to think that even if we had been less successful, that I would still appreciate her efforts and high-quality work. Besides that, Michelle was great at managing someone (me) who was dealing with a difficult situation. She was kind and professional. Her communications were excellent; she responded quickly to my inquiries and promptly passed on information from the courts and opposing counsel. I myself am a licensed attorney, and while I am not an expert in family law, I felt that her work could not have been better. I think that there are many types of family law attorneys out there. There are some who will guide you and make decisions for you (with your consent) if you are not in a good state of mind to decide. There are others who will do what you ask even when that may not be in your best interest. Michelle is someone who will tell you what she thinks, and will discuss the options with you. She is willing to make recommendations as well, but ultimately, she will inform you as best she can then will leave it up to you to decide. That is exactly what I was looking for, and if it is what you need, you may want to consider talking to her. I could not recommend her more highly.

Michelle represented me in my divorce. I came to her scared and confused about what to do. Michelle is extremely knowledgeable about the law and helps ensure you are not only thinking about the now, the future for you and your children. She is a straight-shooter with empathy. What I appreciated the most was that Michelle made me aware of all possible scenarios (good and bad), brought solutions to the table, and walked me through what was in the best interest of me and my kids. There were times I was scared, and she educated me patiently. During this stressful time, I had someone looking out for me. Michelle doesn't treat you as a number. I can't recommend her enough if you want someone who I would consider an expert in the divorce/family law field who will treat you with compassion as well as consider you and your family's best long-term interest.
