Suzanne Lockwood Hayes's Peer Endorsements

Suzanne Lockwood Hayes is one of the best domestic relations specialists I have known in Michigan. She earns the highest ranking in ethical conduct, client advocacy, knowledge of the law, and ability to solve problems in these difficult, emotionally charged matters. She is smart, insightful, available to her clients, hard working and a skilled communicator. With a direct, cheerful but businesslike demeanor, it is easy to understand why she has the respect of the lawyers she opposes and the judges before whom she practices. There are too many lawyers in the family law specialty area who adopt dramatic and histrionic personas in an effort to impress their clients. Too many also prolong the pretrial or presettlement phase of a divorce because it increases attorney fees. Suzanne Lockwood Hayes does neither. I recommend her without reservation.

I endorse this lawyer's work. You will find Ms Lockwood eager to assist you and competent to handle your family law matter. I have known her for twenty five years. She has the respect of fellow attorneys and judges as well. Her clients find that she is prepared; she is conscientious and she is successful. She has a wonderful sense of humor as well. She is a dedicated member of the community having served as school board president and Women's Festival Chair. She is a proud Mom of two college-age children and a good friend.
