Karen S. Gersten

Karen represented me in a high conflict/domestic violence/child custody/divorce case. I agree with all the comments I read on this webpage. She is always well prepared and a step ahead of the opponent. She always made sure that I was safe and was very honest about what the right approach for my circu...mstances was. What I also felt was very important, is that she is well respected by the judges and other (good) lawyers. Thank you, Karen !

Just today, Karen stopped my ex-husband's latest attempt to drag me back into court to again try to stop alimony. I told her about the paperwork I was served and she asked me for two documents that she sent to his attorney with an awesome letter that same day. A week later, the motions were withdrawn.... She handled my divorce 13 years ago and a string of subsequent dealings with my ex both in and out of court. She was recommended by women whom she had represented. I found her to be .on top of every detail. Her knowledge, experience, confidence, prompt responses, and support during contentious times is what kept my sane. I was impressed with her court room presence and marveled at how every document was at her fingertips (in triplicate). I can't image a better attorney.

I hired Karen to help me with a contentious divorce after interviewing several attorneys. It was a difficult year personally but I knew Karen was in control of the legal issues. Above all, Karen has integrity and remains composed even during difficult negotiations. As opposed to my former spouses ...counsel, Karen was heads and shoulders above all of his attorneys. Because Karen was prepared every time we had court, depositions or needed to negotiate I ended up in a far better financial situation than I had even hoped for. I am so grateful to Karen and her entire team including Blake and Kerry who made sure we didn't miss a detail. They are not only top-notch professionals but have become friends. Now, I have my life and sanity back with some runway to start over. Priceless and affordable. Thank you Karen!

I started my Journey I’m sure like most soon to be divorcees. Unsure of what to expect, worried about the end result, and frankly scared about my future. Karen’s calming mannerism, confidence and her knowledge and understanding how the process works gave me great relief and support. Her constant a...ssurance she had everything under control allowed me the peace of mind to focus on my kids and help them through the process. She never wavered from what was most important to me and the end result was much better than I ever expected. Her ability to understand all the detail and negotiate in my favor has given me my life back. Karen truly navigated an incredibly complicated and challenging divorce with amazing skills, integrity and professionalism. Not only did she represent me better than I could have imaging, she became my friend. I would high recommend Karen for any family matter. Amazing!

My experience was amazing. My wife blindsided me with a divorce filing. Karen worked extensively on my case and helped make it a very smooth process. Contacting her was a breeze and she was always available when I needed her with questions/concerns/just to vent. She doesn't take crap from anyon...e and maneuvers through the process very effectively and efficiently. Without Karen, I probably would have lost the shirt off my back. She is very dedicated to her clients while maintaining a balanced home life for her family. She's not afraid to tell you she has prior family engagements and her work will not get in the way of that. This balanced work/home life was very beneficial for me as I have a young child whom I dedicate my every opportunity to. As an added note, her paralegal Blake was just as amazing at answering questions and staying on top of needed information and schedules.
