highly skilled

I had the pleasure of working with Atty Chernus during an extended and challenging custody battle and litigation. From the beginning, Atty Chernus demonstrated an exceptional blend of compassion and ruthless professionalism, which made all the difference in my case. Navigating through this highly str...essful period, I was constantly reassured by Atty Chernus's deep understanding of family law and her ability to dismantle the arguments of the opposing counsel, who was both unethical and high-conflict. Her strategic approach and thorough preparation were evident in every court appearance and filing, turning the tide in our favor. What sets Atty Chernus apart is her genuine compassion for her clients. Despite the often overwhelming nature of family law cases, she consistently went out of her way to provide the support and understanding that I desperately needed. Her empathy and dedication were not just comforting but also empowering, giving me the strength to face the challenges head-on. I am incredibly grateful for Atty Chernus's unwavering support and expert legal guidance. She not only protected my interests but also ensured that justice was served. I highly recommend Atty Chernus to anyone in need of a skilled, compassionate, and fiercely professional family law attorney.

I cannot say enough good things

I was recommended to Liz by a friend for a divorce I was going through, and as the title says, I cannot say enough good things. My ex's lawyer was leveling some pretty high level nonsense against me that could have made my case turn out very poorly. Liz did an absolutely amazing job of handling my ca...se. She obtained a settlement much better than I would have obtained otherwise and I am extremely happy with how everything turned out. She is very easy to work with, is professional, and is also caring. She is not just a "professional attorney," but she understands the personal side of things as well and is caring. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. My ex's attorney was charging double what Liz was, but Liz out lawyered him hands down. She is extremely competent, professional, and is always on your side. Her rates are reasonable, and she is a true professional and always there to help. Again, I cannot say enough good things. It is a no-brainer to hire her.

Custody case

I hired Amy Huff and her colleagues to help me gain full custody of my son last year. Elizabeth was my main point of contact from Amy’s team and she worked very hard to prepare a well thought out and solid case to present to the courts for me. I was very impressed with the effort and even more satisf...ied with the outcome. Amy and Liz brought me confidence and peace of mind In this stressful point in my life. I could tell that Liz genuinely cared about my case and was working very hard to ensure a good outcome. I appreciate all the hard work and effort that was put into my case and I would retain her service again if ever necessary.
