Strongly Recommend-Top notch

I have retained Amy on several occasions to represent me during amendments to my divorce agreement. She quickly resolved the disputes with minimal conflict. Not only is she highly professional and extremely competent, her level of compassion for my personal situation/circumstance really made a diffe...rence. She clearly understands the impact of divorce on families and is emotionally invested, going the distance with you. So she’s not just an alum from one of the best law schools in the country, Georgetown, but someone I can call a friend, confidant, and advisor. It doesn’t get any better than that! Feel free to call 774-721-6279 with any specific questions

Very thorough. Listens, collaborates.

I have worked with Amy, off and on, over many years. She has always been very thorough and has done an excellent job of representing me in custody, financial or other post-divorce related issues. Amy has been equally effective in the courtroom in front of the judge, or negotiating with other lawyers ...on the side. She provides sound advice and collaborates on a strategy. I would highly recommend Amy.

Hardworking Attorney

Amy is a very professional and hardworking attorney. She fights to help you. Amy will do what is necessary to get you to a reasonable outcome and settlement. Her knowledge of divorce law is outstanding. She had fought to help me keep some money that was inherited from my family and I was able t...o keep most of it. Amy was also able to keep the ridiculous wishes of my ex's lawyer from happening. She is able to deal with her very well, but professionally at the sam time. At times I was not so easy to deal with, but Amy remained very professional and handled me very well too. She was able to advise me well in some situations that were difficult with making a decision. Amy didn't fail to do anything for me. She was very thorough in everything she did. She was very good in keeping in touch with by email or a phone call. Sometimes when she was not in her office, she was good about making sure she got back to me. I cannot express how hard she works for you. Amy is definitely your greatest advocate for you when you are in a divorce and a rough time in your life. I was very satisfied with my outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Amy to anyone who needs her services to represent you in a divorce.

Amy Vaughn is Among the Best of the Best!!

Amy Vaughn came recommended by a friend. I had absolutely no idea where to even begin with the grueling divorce process but Amy explained every detail and guided me through step by step. She highly recommended the collaborative route, but unfortunately, my ex and his lawyer wanted nothing to do with... it. Mine was a very contentious and rather lengthy divorce, but Amy explained why it was so important to come to a resolution outside of the courtroom and she was always trying to save me money. Amy always treated me with dignity and respect at a time in my life when I was made to feel less than by my ex. The financial aspect of my divorce, specifically assets, was rather complicated, but Amy painstakingly covered every detail. If she wasn't sure on a specific aspect of the law, she would consult a colleague or financial expert. She even recommended a wonderful financial adviser to help me manage my finances once my divorce was final. Amy possesses a tremendous amount of experience, and it is clear to me that she is highly respected in the legal community. Amy's advice was spot on, and if chose not to follow it (which was rare), I always regretted it. In the end, we came to a fair resolution outside of the courtroom which the judge appreciated immensely. With her expertise, Amy did a fantastic job, successfully guiding me through the lowest moment of my life which has since allowed me to move forward toward a life full of peace and serenity. In a nutshell, I don't know where I would be today without her.

5 stars!

Ms. Vaughn is a professional knowledgeable attorney who I would highly recommend. Amy went above and beyond with personal care regarding my divorce. Her experience makes her valuable in negotiation, including proper financial settlements and custody arrangements. During a difficult time, Amy is a ...huge asset!
