Dissolution of marraige

My lawyer, Rachel Widmer, was an excellent legal representative during the process of my recent divorce! I would recommend her to anyone. She kept me informed throughout the process, skilled in negotiations, and responsive to my needs and communications​ at every step. As may occur in any divorce, un...expected circumstances may occur. Rachel Widmer was flexible and skilled. I am proud to review her as an excellent attorney!

Excellent Experience

My wife and I hired Rachel Widmer to handle our home closing. It was our first home and we had no idea what to expect or what was required. We appreciated that Rachel took the time to help us understand the process from start to finish; what she needed from us and when, as well as her role and respon...sibilities. There was sewer work that we’d agreed to contribute to while the homeowner still lived in the home prior to closing, Rachel recommended we utilize a second escrow account to facilitate that and handled it all flawlessly. I had the utmost confidence that whatever involved Rachel and her firm, it would be completed on time and would not disrupt the closing timelines. I have utilized Rachel’s services since for various consultations and also plan to work with her for estate planning. She offers very sound advice for what I believe are very reasonable costs and I would recommend her to anyone who required legal services.
