I worked with Amy and Allan during my divorce mediation. They responded to all inquiries and concerns promptly. They were both present during all of our meetings, outlined the process clearly, and were efficient in drafting all necessary paperwork. They even walked us through what we could expect in court and it made what could have been a very uneasy experience very manageable. I feel like I have a trusted contact for future legal matters. They are a great team and I would recommend them to anyone!
Amy and Allen were very friendly and professional! They helped me through a very difficult time in my life! As tough as it was, they both made me feel comfortable though out the entire process.
I highly recommend their services!!
Thank you again!!

Mediation is a great way to resolve issues in a cost effective and timely manner while preserving family relationships. My partner and I provide a co-mediation gender balanced mediation model for divorce and elder matters and we do so in a caring, yet realistic and forward looking manner.

Highly recommend this professional
There is no question that divorce is a traumatic life event, even under the best of circumstances. Being able to rely on Amy & Allan's experience and guidance through this process allowed us to create a in-depth, equitable and flexible agreement that maintains a strong mutual respect for one another. I would highly recommend Baron Law to anyone considering mediation. This husband & wife team are professional, caring, comprehensive, and take the long view for creating a new relationship. They helped put process and expectations around a situation filled with anxiety. Sometimes your happily ever after turns out to be different than what you imagined but being able to turn to professionals like Amy & Allan to help find the best solution for all parties involved was absolutely invaluable.

Outstanding Divorce Mediation
Thank you Amy for allowing us to move through the divorce process smoothly and efficiently. Your mediation was outstanding and I could not have imagined a better experience. We just had our court hearing and it took about one minute for the judge to approve our divorce agreement. You made this painful process so much less difficult.
Your team approach, both very professional and caring, led us through each step of the divorce agreement in a logical and systematic way that made me feel well-guided. you asked the right questions and knew exactly how to proceed from A to Z. You even had tips for the filing process and for court day, which were very helpful.
I appreciated the fact that it took only four sessions total for the agreement to be ready and signed. Your flat fee also seemed quite reasonable and easy to deal with. Appointments were easy to make and you were regularly in touch with us via email. You had notes for us after each session and you had a clear communication policy involving both parties so that no one would feel left out at any point.
I already recommended you to a friend and she did not hesitate to contact you. Your help is precious and I hope you know how grateful we are to have found you. Please continue doing just what you do. THANK YOU.

Divorce Mediation
Amy Beth Baron was extremely helpful throughout our divorce mediation process - everything from accommodating schedules due to work, to explaining the paperwork, to the general divorce process. She was caring, but highly professional during every meeting and with each correspondence. Divorce is a stressful experience, but she helped to make it easier through her knowledge and experience. Payments for services rendered were made very clear and there were no surprise extra fees or bills at a later date. Rates are extremely fair. I would highly recommend Amy and Baron Law & Mediation.

Gratitude
Dear Amy and Allen,
We had our court hearing yesterday and the divorce is final. Such an interesting mix of powerful emotions.
I wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your gifts of clear, direct honesty, sweet support, skillful managing, and breadth of knowledge during our time together. You are an amazing team!
It was because of these offerings that the full focus of my energy was not needed for the details of the proceedings (with everything in place, our short time in court went very smoothly). I was able to notice the emotions which arose and process them in a direct, healing way.
I will always hold your caring very dearly.
I wish you both much happiness along your way...............with many, many thanks.............donna

Very smooth, very easy ...
Working with Amy & Alan was wonderful, in what can be a very hard process. They were both informative, up front, and honest. We were so prepared for filing, that we were able to get in front of a judge the DAY we filed at the courthouse - and that is ONLY because of the guidance Amy & Alan gave us. I felt 100% in capable, competent hands.

My experience with Baron Law and Mediation
Amy Beth & Allan are knowledgeable, flexible and are a personable team of attorneys. My divorce was at times confusing & frustrating due to underhanded & non-responsive tactics from my ex-wife’s attorney; they helped me understand what was reasonable and realistic (& most importantly what was legal) and they responded to these tactics with professionalism and integrity. Amy Beth’s compassion & sensibility coupled with Allan’s financial planning knowledge was an effective combination in coming to a final agreement that will work for both me & my ex-wife now & in the future. I highly recommend them.

A wonderful team!
The baron's are an amazing team! They have a special gift of mediation and they navigated my ex- husband and I through a sticky divorce agreement in which both parties left feeling good about. We spent a fraction of the time and cost we would have if we each used our own attorneys. The combination of a husband and wife team let all parties feel represented. I truly would recommend them for their services.

Mediation
Baron Law and Mediation efficiently and effectively lead us through the mediation process. When beginning the process there was a great deal of nervousness and apprehension, but thier style and professionalism allowed us to complete the process with all the necessary documentation for a divorce filing in a very short time period, and with no surprises. They were very responsive to an accelerated time line, and they made a stressful process, a great deal easier.

I could not ask for more
Amy Beth and her Lawyer/husband were the best attorneys I have ever known. Clearly compentent and skilled, yet compassionate as they worked on aspects of my divorce. They communicated with me in a matter I could understand. I did not feel rushed into making a decision. I will use them again.

Great Elder / Special Needs Law Attorney
I highly recommend Amy Beth Baron as your Special Needs Attorney. She helped us set up a supplemental needs trust for our daughter. Amy was compassionate, knowledgeable and thorough. She exceeded our expectations and we now feel our daughter will be taken care of.

Top of the line!
Attorney Amy Beth Baron assisted from beginning to end with a recent mediation process. Having come from a nursing background, I found Attorney Amy Beth Baron to be an extremely compassionate, understanding and trustworthy attorney, which is difficult to find in many other attorneys. Her common sense and calming presence will serve to be of benefit to all her clients. I would highly recommend Attorney Baron.
