Kelly Therrien is a great choice for a divorce attorney

I worked with Kelly and her team through my recent divorce. Kelly was a recommendation from a family lawyer and she willingly took my case knowing that court would be outside of her travel area. From the very start her team was very responsive, responding to any questions I had quickly, and explained... the process to me every step of the way. Anyone who has gone through divorce knows it is very emotional and difficult for all involved. Kelly was very empathetic and respectful, but also factual and honest. Her team is amazing and would highly recommend them. Thank you Kelly and team!

Highly Recommend

I am so grateful for Attorney Therrien and her whole firm. Her support and expertise during a very challenging family court matter made all the difference. She came highly recommended from other attorneys in the area who did not feel they had the right experience to handle such a complex case. I’m so... glad they pointed me towards Attorney Therrien. She is realistic, knowledgeable, tactful, and incredibly fierce. My family put our trust in her and were not disappointed.

Supports Dad no matter what

Kelly charge huge bills. She only support Dad’s. She don’t hesitate to lie in court. Makes every effort to separate Mom and baby. Highly misuse her power to get the result that she want. Holds grudge if you stop her payments and ruins you completely.

There are times that I am called upon to act as a GAL and do not represent either party. During those times, sometimes one party is not happy with the recommendations but at all times I undertake to be reasonable, accurate, honest and do what I believe to be in the best interests of my wards.

Highly Recommend

Attorney Therrien and her team jumped into handling my case with only a few weeks notice to a hearing that was scheduled. They were all extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. Attorney Therrien was incredible in the courtroom at the hearing. I didn’t have to say anything she knew exactly w...hat needed to be asked or brought up. She helped me remain calm in the face of extreme stress. I would recommend Attorney Therrien for any family court related legal issues. I can’t thank her and her team enough for all they did to help me successfully through a very difficult time.

Gary

I would just like to thank Kelly and her staff, in a divorce that had the potential to get very nasty Kelly brilliantly ended my divorce checking almost every box for what I asked her for in our consultation. Kelly’s confidence in her abilities to understand the law and what your realistic expectatio...ns should be were absolutely on point. If you hire her you just need to listen to her and take her advice, she knows what she’s doing. The recommendation for Kelly actually came from a family friend who’s an extremely well known divorce attorney. Her exact words were “if you want the best you should hire Kelly, I dread anytime I have to go up against her in court.” Simply put hands down Kelly saved me in this divorce when my first attorney failed and my ex wife’s attorney steam rolled me before hiring Kelly. Honestly I can not say enough good things about this brilliant attorney and the overwhelming amount of calm her knowledge of the law and divorce will bring you in one of the most anxiety ridden times of your life. Another point I found to really like about Therrien laws office is the way Kelly hires her staff, any time I called and Kelly wasn’t available her knowledgeable paralegals never had a problem answering my questions and making sure they handled every concern I had. And this for me made Kelly’s business, I had to come last minute to fill out a ton of documents and had my German shepherd puppy with me. Not only did Kelly explain in detail every document and make corrections but literally played with my 90lb German shepherd pup and keep her busy while I was going over all the documents. This attorney goes above and beyond on the rest.
