I wouldn't have made it through everything without her!

Geri represented me and my family through a difficult divorce, post judgement motions, custody trial, ex's termination of parental rights, and step-parent adoption. Her expertise and knowledge was absolutely outstanding. She always went above and beyond the legal advice and provided compassion duri...ng such an upsetting event. I would have never made it through all of the legal events without her. She always returned her calls in a timely manner, discussed each point of concern in detail, and provided me with all the information I needed to make informed decisions. She also put my daughter's best interest before all else. I would absolutely recommend her!

Geri Landeau Squire

I interviewed five lawyers before I hired Geri as it is such an emotional and difficult journey. Most other lawyers used my vulnerability for their gain or said what they thought I wanted to hear and then gave the bulk of the work to an associate. Geri is intelligent, compassionate and gets the job... done as painlessly as possible.It is such a difficult time and it is important that you are confident in your attorney's ability to help you make the right decision for your circumstances.

Professional review of Geri Landau Squire, Matrimonial Law Attorney

I was very impressed with Geri’s work, a true knowledgeable Matrimonial Law Attorney. She foremost listen in very details to my case (Complaint for Divorce), then explained the process point by point and drew up the outlines of her approach. She went out her way to deliver everything as promised i...n an extreme timely fashion (like over night). She got the certified paper work lined up in getting an immediate Docket No. and a certified Temporary Restraint Order served onto the judge’s desk for an immediate review and implementation. Geri was very successful in doing so. I highly recommend Geri Landau Squire to anyone.
