Attorney Foster is a highly competent and experienced attorney that "gets it" from the client's perspective. She's direct and results driven, not interested in wasting your time and money. (The antithesis of lawyers who run out the clock speaking to issues of high emotion but little impart.)
In my divorce we faced a lot of nonsense from the other side and having an attorney that won't entertain that and brings none of their own helped me keep costs down and ultimately hold the line right where it should be.
Superior communication and understanding of family law.
I have been fortunate to have Erica "on my side" on two occasions. She is extremely responsive, has precise communication and does not attempt to "ad-lib" as many attorneys do. Not once did Erica loose sight of my goals as a single parent and she fought bravely for my twins and myself. She completely understood both the legal and emotional side of my high conflict divorce and I can report with confidence you will be happy with her abilities!

Custody Case
From my first initial call to The Law Offices of Erica M. Foster, then my consultation before our first appearance in court, it was nothing short of a complete and utterly professional experience. Right from the start Attorney Foster showed great confidence when I was in a place where I felt unsure about everything. I had a situation that was of a time sensitive matter and Attorney Foster made my family and I feel as though we were her only clients. Attorney Foster helped my family gain custody of our grandchildren while addressing all of our grandchildren’s needs and she coordinated agreements as needed for each situation that developed, which were fair and practical for all parties involved. This made very stressful situations less stressful and we able to focus on what was important which was the care of our grandchildren. As time went on I realized I had someone on my side who was giving so much dedication, commitment and support to all of our family’s needs and that started to make me feel invincible instead of vulnerable. Together Attorney Erica Foster and I spent years overcoming the many obstacles that my family and I had to endure to finally achieve what we set out to accomplish in the first place. The fees we paid were very reasonable for the amount of happiness and comfort she successfully brought to my family. Attorney Foster’s Firm is and was conveniently located and it is also accessible from all areas which made it very easy and comfortable each time we visited. Today I am very happy and proud to say Attorney Erica Foster feels more like a friend of the family. Attorney Erica Foster is one of the best! I highly recommend her firm to anyone in need of her services.

"Blessed"
A friend of mine hearing about my situation on divorcing my husband, suggest me to consider seeing his lawyer Erica Forster he mentioned how helpful she was to him, and he gives to me her number. That time l was lost l come from Europe and l have never been independent and l was told l don't deserve anything or for that matter if l perused divorce l will get nothing, l was hurt and lost and decided to call Erica Forster the first time l meet her and shared my story l felt "loved" and "respected" some times in life GOD provides the right person to help in times like this and to me Erica Foster was a "blessing" she helped and guided me step by step to understand the process and the problems I was about to face, and tell the truth l wasn't there to get anything l had no idea what meant to be divorced . But hearing her words saying to me that l was valued , loved and l have hope to grow and learn and make better choices, & I matter in this life, those words touched my heart, and give me hope. I TRUSTED ERICA FORSTER and thanked God that brought her in this world with her knowledge and love to be there for people like me. I might not be able to share everything in my writing but l tell from my heart that not only l divorced, but l got all my rights as woman that the law provides . I respect and admire Erica Foster and her wonderful work based on her knowledge and experience and love to help l know in my heart that she will be a blessing to everyone . I have a favorite word that says...
"Where God guides He provides"
ERICA was sand by God for me to give me help & hope ,and I am a testimony of her wonderful work and now l moved on with my life l have my own apartment and l will never forget her words when she said....
l matter and l will do well.
Thanks
Much love Etleva.

Attorney Foster handled my case with the utmost skill, care and professionalism. While divorce is never easy, Erica approached it with the highest level of empathy and explained everything in laypersons terms and always approached our meetings with patience. I would highly recommend her services.

Excellent Divorce and Separation Lawyer!
I came upon Erica from another individual and she was highly recommended. I'm glad I choose her. Right off the bat she understood everything I was looking to do and was very clear and knowledgeable. She made my case smooth and easy and always communicated back and forth. She was very patient, and is willing to work with you. I will definitely recommend her in the future to others.

Ive used Erica in the past and would not hesitate to recommend her.She is both knowledgable and very easy to understand. She defined the outlines of what my legal rights were and went right to work to protect them.
