Karen S. Gersten

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!

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

I was so fortunate to have been recommended to Karen Gersten to represent me in my recent divorce proceedings. Karen is an exceptionally intelligent and prudent attorney who protected my every interest and offered superb advice and guidance. I trusted her judgement explicitly. Karen respected th...at trust and provided outstanding legal representation. Anyone who has divorced knows what an unsettling, emotional and uncertain process it is. Karen was sensitive and compassionate yet didn’t let the emotional aspect of divorce drive decisions. I depended heavily on her expertise to lead me through difficult financial negotiations which she did with superior competence and confidence. I simply cannot stress enough how skillful and intuitive Karen is with an extraordinary capacity for detail. In my observations, it was evident that Karen is afforded the utmost respect of her colleagues, judges and attorneys alike. Additionally, Karen’s office offers efficient, reliable, and professional services. Finally, I will forever be grateful to Karen for guiding me through this difficult time with dignity and kindness. I highly recommend Attorney Karen Gersten and urge anyone seeking an attorney to give Karen his or her closest consideration. She's exceptional .
