FIVE STAR REPRESENTATION 6/08/209

Don’t look any further for an attorney. I have been divorced for many years and over the years I have been back in court over support issues, medical & dental coverage for our only daughter. Over that time I have hired expensive well thought of attorneys who came highly recommended Who just didn’t ...produce good Results. Attorney Alison Silber was A Game Changer! She is smart very well prepared and is personally involved in your case from start to Finish. Attorney Silber is no drama, caring and attentive and fearlessly Advocates for her clients . Attorney Silber responds very quickly to emails, she prepares her cases herself which assures you the Client a MUCH better outcome in court because she knows your Case. She brings a calm to the process which was very effective but she’s a fighter too. She ADVOCATES AND WINS for her clients. I had a totally different experience being represented by Attorney Alison Silber In June 2019. Her fee structure is very reasonable and fair for a Solid representation she definitely didn’t over charge or charge for work not done. Attorney Silber is Bar None a Five Star attorney from start to Finish. I meet attorney Silber at her office in Longmeadow. She listened, took notes and got right to work. She’s very smart, brings calm to the process, she is completely honest and knows the LaW. Take her advice, let her guide you and you will Win. I take great pleasure in writing this Review and strongly recommended that anyone in need of a good family attorney Look No Further then Attorney Alison Silber. Sincerely, Tracy M

On Point, Detailed and Well Prepared

I interviewed 3 attorneys to find one to help me with my separation/mediation/divorce. After the initial one hour consultation, I got the feeling that Attorney Silber would best represent my interests in this challenging process. She did not disappoint! Alison had a no nonsense approach, helped ...me identify where we would best succeed in negotiations and which battles weren't worth fighting. She was very cognizant of my budget through the whole process and would let me know which tasks were worth her time and identify the other tasks that I would benefit tackling. When it came time to meet with my spouse's attorney and our mediator to try and finalize a stalled separation agreement negotiation, it was Alison that shepherded the group to the finish line. She had us signed, sealed and delivered to file a joint petition that day. I was glad the smartest attorney in the room was working on my behalf!

Great mediator

Alison was very thorough in our divorce mediation. She made sure that she heard and understood both parties and remained 100% neutral.

The worst

I hired Alison a couple of years ago for a divorce case. She proved to be the worst choice ever. She wanted to avoid going to trial at all costs even if that meant telling me to agree on a terrible settlement. After 2 years, I am now suffering from that settlement agreement. She just can't deal with ...conflict. She is NOT a lawyer who can defend her client against an opponent at all. I realize now that I could have just stayed home and never went to court and I would get the same outcome instead of paying her so much money. Or even better, I should have FIRED Alison once I started noticing she would throw me under the bus, which is exactly what she did.
