Karen S. Gersten

My divorce has finally ended. Attorney Gersten’s representation, guidance, and ability to walk me through this process was top notch. I had a very contentious divorce, my ex tried to have me put in prison on false accusations. Attorney Gersten was right there on the phone with the detectives keeping ...me free. In the end we accomplished all my goals in the divorce and feel like the judge truly saw my side of events. Karen’s closing was a perfect summary of how I had been wronged by my wife and my love of my daughter, the other victim in this case. I nearly cried in court. Her staff has always been there to answer questions and give reassurance that my voice was going to be heard. Every case is different, I can’t predict an outcome in yours, but Karen Gersten is going to relentlessly pursue your best interests.

Karen has represented me in divorce and post-divorce matters over a five-year period. From the beginning of the process when I was confused and lost, she showed me a path forward. Through all the tedious, numerous court appearances and battles along the way to negotiating a reasonable resolution, Kar...en has consistently represented my best interests, knowing when to fight for me, when to challenge me and when to look for a resolution. I trust her judgment and her “no non-sense” advice. She has credibility with the Court, and she knows how to get things done. She is well prepared for court appearances. She is cool-headed, detail oriented and she can think on her feet. She replies promptly when I need her attention. Her office staff is pleasant, professional, helpful, and effective. I'm grateful for having her in my corner. She’ll be my attorney as long as I have to be a client!

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...

Prior to consulting with Attorney Karen Gersten, I had been cleaning out my desk and came across an old sticky note with her phone number. I had been referred to Karen two years earlier by a professional acquaintance of mine who works closely with attorneys and who knew I was considering a divorce. ... Her advice was to “go see Karen” but the note never made it to my priority list! I had become so overwhelmed and discouraged with the legal process, having interviewed with two attorneys who did not have the scope of knowledge I was expecting, that I put my divorce on hold. I decided to call Karen. She promptly returned my call and rearranged her calendar to see me on short notice. It was the best decision I could have made. Her immense knowledge and expertise on family matters and the legal process gave me the confidence I needed to pursue my divorce. I have two angels, the one who directed me to find that old sticky note, and Attorney Gersten, who put my best interest first and gave me the advice that I needed to hear. Oftentimes during a divorce, a time of extreme emotional upheaval, you are looking for someone to sympathize and tell you what you want to hear. While having compassion for my situation, Karen did not offer false hope. Rather, she made it a point to be forthright about the legal process and what I could expect. As soon as you meet Karen, you recognize her immense integrity, honesty, and expertise. She is extremely wise, empathetic, well informed, and trustworthy. I feel Karen has the best interest of her client at the forefront. Before I met her, I was fearful of the legal process regarding divorce. After meeting Karen, I feel safe and I trust her completely. Thank you Attorney Gersten. You are an angel and a gem!
