Divorce - Someone to Trust

Hired for a divorce case. The best lawyer out there, Susan is the very responsive, understanding, and thorough in all aspects of your case. In a very difficult case Susan came through for me and my family, the kids were the focus as they should be. Any concerns or questions are explained as well a...s advice and options. She'd be a bulldog when she needed to be as well as caring and understanding. Very professional and treats you like you are her #1 priority, an amazing person. I would highly recommend Susan to address any situation. I will absolutely hire her for any future needs.

Susan was fantastic; very helpful, accessible, and responsive (even on weekends and after hours). Responded to all my questions and addressed all concerns. Would highly recommend.

Best for DUI

I hired Susan for a dui and refusal to submit to a chemical test. I was so worried about losing my job because my license would be suspended. Susan got me a hardship license so I could work so I didn’t lose my job. She was great and really helped me understand everything that was gonna happen. I’...m so thankful I got to keep my license even though I was dui. So thankful for her

Godsend

We first sat with Susan in Dec of 2016. We had called her on the weekend , & she had us in for a consultation immediately. We instantly knew we had the right lawyer. She always made us feel like a priority , and was available anytime. She was extremely understanding and very knowledgeable . We had... a long, hard battle, which Susan handled incredibly. She went above & beyond many, many times! She kept us in the loop , and helped us understand what was going on. Even though our case is now over , she still checks in here and there. She is an AMAZING person , and a kick a lawyer ! We will use her for ANY & all future needs . Highly recommended.

Best Divorce attorney ever

I hired Susan after being served divorce papers. From the moment I walked into her office, I knew I was in the right place. She was easy to talk to, easy to get in touch with and always had my and my kids best interests in mind. I got to stay in our home and my now x husband pays for the mortgage ...and child support. She was ruthless when needed to be, and always explained everything to me. If you need a divorce attorney, please call her.
