Karen S. Gersten

Attorney Karen Gersten is as equally compassionate as she is a master in the divorce and custody legal arena. She listened to me and always made me feel heard. And at the same time managed my expectations, kept me apprised of the status of my divorce, clearly navigated me through the legal system and..., most importantly, achieved exactly what I wanted as the outcome of my case. Karen is a class act and incredibly smart and intuitive. An absolute professional and obviously highly respected by her colleagues and courts. I highly recommend working with Karen. You will feel heard and will get what you are looking for in an attorney during a very intense and emotional time your life.

I hired Karen to help me file for changes to my previous child custody affidavit from a tough divorce several years back. At the time I went initially I did not have an Attorney and the child custody arrangement was very restrictive towards me and over the years became quite inaccurate as I have been... keeping my child for more and more time. Karen helped me file everything and obtain sole custody of my child and the cancellation of my required child support payments. Karen was very professional and extremely quick to respond at any point whenever I had questions or needed to get her advice and recommendations because the situation has been constantly changing recently. Karen is definitely someone I would recommend hiring, it was huge benefit to have her guidance and expertise throughout the progression of my case. The entire situation went much smoother than I ever could have expected or hoped for.

Karen is an absolute super hero. She is knowledgeable, EXTREMELY patient, understanding and above all a great person. She makes you feel as if you are her top priority. She does not back down from any challenge, and she sure had one with my divorce. When it felt like I was losing hope, she kept remin...ding me to be strong and to carry on. I don't know how she did it, but she was finally able to get my divorce final from a very abusive ex to not only myself, but my children. We are finally safe and at peace because of her, and we will forever be grateful.

Looking for a a heavy hitter Karen is your choice !!. Way to many good things to list about Karen. Went through child custody battle with my Ex. Ex was offering little to no time with our child had no choice but to get a lawyer and thank god I was recommended Karen. Karen does not buckle under press...ure she is a shark when it comes for fighting for you. She knows what she is doing very very well. Never felt uncomfortable with her fighting for me. She takes control of the room when she is in there and always had our sons best intrest in mind. Would use her again and again in a heart beat!!! Thank you so much Karen for having my son in my life

Talk about going into a mess and coming out clean on the other side. I went through a DIY divorce a few years back and when the ex came back asking for more I knew I needed help. Karen's name was recommended to me and was described as a "shark" (pretty sure I never told Karen that!). Karen was cal...m under pressure and had a quick response to every angle thrown at us. She shows genuine care for her clients and takes pride in her position. Not only did I come away better than expected financially, I now have more time with my kids and was able to save the kids from a long drawn out CPS evaluation. My sincerest thanks goes to Karen...
