Karen S. Gersten

As soon as I met Karen, I knew I was in good hands with my divorce. Our divorce was not dramatic in any way. I originally agreed to divorce through mediation and hired Karen to simply file for divorce and review the documents our mediator was going to supply. but suffered from a complete lack of ...organization and follow through by our mediator and us as we avoided difficult conversations. Our mediator totally dropped the ball and under a tight deadline, Karen helped my ex and I finalize our plan. Although she was my lawyer, which she kept very clear at all times, she jumped in and helped my ex and I reach an amicable agreement. She was all business, funny, kind and kept the issues very clear. I would want her in my corner at all times. She has a tremendous amount of force and influence and although I never had to ask her to use these qualities, I know that if I was not being supported by the agreements I was making, she would go to bat for me. And she would win. Although our circumstances for meeting were not great, I absolutely enjoyed working with Karen.

I chose Attorney Karen Gersten because of her experience with Divorces involving Special Needs children. Karen is not your typical lawyer; she always puts her client's first and treats you as if you were her only client. My divorce was extremely contentious and involved 2 children under the age of 1...0 (one special needs and the other typical). Karen immediately got a Guardian Ad Litem (GAL) on board to represent the children and what was in their best interests. Karen always had my back and when things got emotional, she kept me focused and strong. Without her expertise, support, compassion and dedication to me and my kids, I would have never survived. I'm currently on my own with my 2 amazing children and financially stable. I felt confident with Karen and all the recommendations she made. She made sure to review things with me to make certain I understood. Karen was in constant communication with me whether by phone or email before making any decisions involving my divorce case. I would highly recommend Attorney Karen Gersten to anyone thinking about divorce or even ready to file. She has an amazingly competent and talented staff as well, which is extremely important. Karen is highly respected among other colleagues, Attorneys and Judges. I can't stress this enough, Karen is not your typical lawyer........she has a heart and puts her client's and their children first. You want Attorney Karen Gersten on your team! Denise

Karen represented me in a highly contentious and emotional divorce. She is a brilliant attorney who also takes the time to understand the facts at hand. She was very reasonable and realistic in trying to bring my case to a settlement agreement; however, when it became clear that settlement was not ...possible or in my best interest, she expertly got me through a court trial. Her professionalism and experience made me feel confident that no matter what the outcome, I had the best legal representation that I could ask for.

She is a tribute to her profession - caring but strong. I recommend her highly.
