My Savior

In an ongoing(9yr.) Battle with an extremely difficult ex, Colleen has been my support system 100%. She is reasonable, strong and truly an advocate for me. She not only provides legal advice, she also provides emotional support at a time that is extremely draining. Her knowledge of the law is without... question and has dealt with my "ProSe ex" professionally yet sternly with his unrelenting superfluous demands. I could never have gotten through this mess without her support and guidance. Colleen ALWAYS has the time to provide legal advice and support. When this present legal situation is over, I hope I never need her services again-but if I do, I am in good hands! Colleen-you rock and you help those of us being beat down by unreasonable, mentally unstable narcissists. My divorce was absolutely devastating and you helped me through it, INTACT. Thank you is just not enough!

Rockstar!!!

This woman is amazing!! Not only was she a fantastic lawyer, she became a friend! Colleen is no nonsense and gets straight to the point. I needed guidance in the worst way and she never once failed to do so! She is honest, caring, realistic and extremely good at what she does! From our first consulta...tion to the day my divorce was final she was always in my corner. No question I threw her way was ever dumb or ignored. I have already referred her to friends!

Collen Collins is the absoute best!!

If you need a lawyer, I recommend you hire Colleen NOW! She is an excellent and very skilled lawyer. Knowledgeable is not even enough to describe how well she knows the law. She knows how to get thing done. She handled my divorce beyond my satisfaction and was able to keep me calm throughout the proc...ess when I would lose myself in just wanting it done. She is more than a great lawyer, she is a genuine, tell it like it is, woman. She knows what she is doing and would serve your needs well. So look no further and call her now. Just do it! I promise you will not be disappointed.

You want her in your corner!!!!

Colleen met with me initially to go over my case. She was an excellent listener and gave helpful feedback during that initial consultation. There was no pressure to hire her whatsoever but I could see after our meeting that she was clearly someone who I wanted in MY corner. Throughout the process of ...my divorce, she always made me feel like I was a priority even though I know she was handling MANY others cases at the same time. She always took my calls when she was able to or called back at her first opportunity. She was incredibly thorough and detail oriented throughout the whole process and always had my best interest at heart. She is a fierce advocate for her clients and takes their best interest personally. In addition to her excellent performance as a litigator, she is also a wonderful human being and so much fun to be around. She put me at ease on the most stressful days and always kept me informed every step of the way...sometimes responding to emails in the middle of the night. I can’t even count how many times I said to myself or others how thankful I was that she was representing ME and not my ex. I would NOT want to go up against her in a case. She is a force to be reckoned with wrapped in an unassuming and petite little package. If you hire Colleen, you won’t regret it!

I Highly Recommend Colleen!

From the first appointment that I had with Colleen, she explained things to me in a way I could understand and that made me feel comfortable. Even though I was slow getting the divorce process started, she was patient with me and allowed me to go at my own pace. Every question or concern that I had..., she answered for me in a way that made me feel confident in what I was doing. She definitely worked hard to do the very best she could for me in my divorce settlement. I would highly recommend Colleen.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I did an extensive search on AVVO and narrowed it down to Colleen and another attorney. After speaking with Colleen, I knew she was the right attorney. We worked together on a family matter and she did the heavy lifting. She made 16 different requests for relief from the Court and got 15 of them! If you are a client who needs family law help OR another attorney, pick up the phone now before your opponent does. She's the real deal."
