Susan Klueppel

I needed to get a 20+ year old Domestic Relations Order Modified before I could retire to provide financial security for my current wife. I went to a number of different lawyers as well as the Massachusetts Teachers Retirement Board to try and get an answer as to whether this was possible and, if so,... how to go about it. It seemed like I got a different answer with every inquiry I made, and none of them were definitive or optimistic. Once I contacted Susan, whom I had hired previously for divorce-related matters, she made the right contacts to determine how to proceed and got the matter resolved in relatively short order. As it turned out, the lawyer who Susan uses to write her Domestic Relations Orders is the same person who reviews and validates them for the Massachusetts Retirement System. When I came to Susan and told her that I had met with a number of different attorneys over a period of several years, trying unsuccessfully to get this matter resolved, it got her attention, especially when what I was looking to do seemed reasonable and fair to all concerned parties. She accepted the challenge with confidence that justice would prevail. That was not my experience with the other lawyers that I had consulted with on this matter. Most said that it was not very likely or, "a crap-shoot," at best, regardless of how reasonable my request was. Susan is not cheap, but she knows the law and is very good in dealing with the human dynamics of dealing with judicial personalities, and she likes a challenge.

Going through a divorce is such a stressful time and being divorced does not necessarily mean it is the end of the road in terms of legal fees and court appearances. There can be contempts and modifications when circumstances change and/or one party does not do what the court ordered. My experience w...ith Attorney Klueppel is and always has been a positive one. She always returns my calls and answers my questions. The thing I appreciate most about her is that she tells me the truth, not what I want to hear. Many attorneys will tell you what you "want" to hear to get your business and money. She has always told me what to expect as a "realistic" outcome in a court proceeding. I would highly recommend Attorney Klueppel based on her years of experience and integrity.

Attorney Klueppel represented me during my divorce this past August. It is a gruelling process, but when you have someone on your side, who you feel comfortable with, and have complete confidence in, it can make the process much more bearable. That's how I felt with Attorney Klueppel on my side. H...er experience and expertise were apparant from the early stages; i.e.; throughout the discovery process, drafting the divorce agreement, etc. to being in the Courthouse. She always answered my questions in a clear, concise, honest manner, she always listened to my concerns and gave me her utmost attention. I would highly recommend Attorney Klueppel for anyone looking for an attorney with integrity, wisdom and experience with a positive, and very pleasant demeanor.
