Posted by Michael | January 10, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent attorney!!

I couldn't be happier that I hired Allison Holzman to represent me in my divorce. In a time where there was a great deal of uncertainty and stress about what the future holds, Allison walked me through the divorce process, explained the reality of the situation, and told me what to expect. In the end... everything she told me held true and it played out exactly like she said it would. Although the process was stressful, she was a great ally to have and set me at ease every time I was worried. She was always there anytime I needed her and stays on point as not to rack up billable hours. I highly recommend Allison to anyone in need of a great attorney who will be transparent and fulfill everything they promise.

Excellent Experience, Every Step of the Way

Allison came highly recommended by a personal friend of mine, and I'm incredibly grateful for it. My case lasted months, and Allison proved to be invaluable throughout the entire process. From day 1, she took in every detail and went straight to work. The communication was hands down some of the best... I've dealt with, leaving no doubts regarding critical decisions throughout the case. I'm beyond thankful for having the chance to allow Allison to represent me in court, and would highly recommend her to anyone in a similar situation in the future.

Experienced and pragmatic

Allison handled my divorce and two subsequent mediations to resolve ongoing issues. She knows her job, keeps things reality-based and focused on results. She more than once told me that she was happy to listen to complaints about my ex- but that "we might be better served focusing on what we can get ...done"(!), which helped keep things on track. She understands how judges look at issues and fights your side aggressively. Highly recommended.

Dedicated Attorney

I retained Allison Holzman as my divorce attorney and she delivered! Divorce is not easy, but Allison was both professional and caring in guiding me through the process. She fought for me, spoke on my behalf, and was fair. She was always quick to respond to my questions. I didn’t feel like a client w...hen dealing with Allison, and I knew I could trust her to have my best interests at heart. She is very knowledgeable of family law and very reasonable. I can’t say enough about Allison Holzman. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through a divorce. It’s hard enough to go through a divorce, but Allison will have your back and fight for you.

Smart, Committed, Fabulous Lawyer

Allison is the lawyer you want in your court when navigating a divorce etc. She listens to what matters to you most and does everything possible to make that happen. Thanks to her we were able to create a divorce agreement in record time. And she managed to push my divorce agreement through sluggish ...court systems during COVID so the divorce could be finalized in time for me create embryos on my own. She also found a lawyer specializing in use of embryos after divorce to consult to inform our divorce agreement. Thanks to her I was able to have an amicable divorce in the swiftest time possible. And she’s so efficient! She doesn’t waste your time or money! She will be your fiercest advocate and go and above and beyond to serve you in your highest good. Hire her and you will be very glad you did!
