Karen S. Gersten

I was referred to Karen Gersten by a friend whose ex-husband had retained her as his attorney. From the minute I stepped into Karen's office for my initial consult, I knew I was in good hands. She is extremely professional, detailed, knowledgeable, hardworking, and honest. My divorce was very cont...entious with an alcoholic spouse and three young children involved. Although the divorce took over a year to finally settle, Karen was able to successfully navigate me through many difficult and emotionally charged situations. She also helped me to avoid a nasty and expensive trial in court. Karen paid careful attention to every detail of my case from start to finish and ensured the well being of my children and I throughout the process. From filing pendente lite orders in the beginning stages (for temporary alimony and child support during the divorce process), to negotiating an effective co-parenting/custody plan, to reaching an extremely favorable settlement on my behalf, I could not have asked for a better outcome. Furthermore, Karen's paralegal Blake and her office staff were extremely responsive and helpful. It is clear that Karen is well respected by judges and other attorneys in the legal system. She is able to remain calm and poised even in the most stressful situations, which was very reassuring. I will refer Karen to anyone I know facing a divorce in the future. The cost of her services is well worth the peace of mind that you will receive the best outcome possible. Thank you 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
