Expertise, Grace, Sharp & Strong

Alyssa was my prenup lawyer and I am deeply grateful to have had her in my corner throughout the process. I interviewed 8 different lawyers before picking Alyssa, and I am so glad I chose her. There’s no one else I would’ve wanted by my side through it all. What I anticipated would be straightfor...ward proved to be far more emotional and challenging than I thought, and her guidance, empathy, and professionalism made it so much easier. I truly felt supported, and I am so appreciative of the care she brought to her work. Her expertise, grace, thoughtfulness, and calm approach brought such reassurance and clarity for me at every step. Thank you again for everything - to the entire team at Rower, LLC! I am forever grateful for you all!

Excellent Experience

Alyssa and her team were extremely professional in my time working with them. I can't imagine divorce is easy for anybody, but throughout the negotiation process they were calm, attentive, and always eager to be of service. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Best matrimony attorneys one could hope for!

Alyssa and her team are absolutely incredible! Not only are they exceedingly savvy on matrimony law but they do an incredible job supporting their clients through a challenging and emotional process. I couldn’t give a higher recommendation!

Truly exceptional

Alyssa Rower and her team at Rower LLC were truly exceptional throughout one of the most difficult experiences of my life. Alyssa’s deep expertise and strategic thinking were clear from the beginning, but what really set her apart was her unwavering commitment to her clients. She went above and beyon...d to ensure that I felt heard, supported, and empowered at every step of the process. Her thoughtful guidance, combined with her willingness to always be available and provide reassurance, made a world of difference during an emotional and complex time. Alyssa and her team consistently exceeded my expectations, demonstrating remarkable attention to detail, responsiveness, and a genuine dedication to my best outcome. I cannot recommend Alyssa and Rower LLC highly enough!

Superlative guidance

Life gets complicated and things don’t go according to plan. Most of us know to expect this. But what I, personally, never expected was that my divorce lawyer would remain a trusted advisor years after my divorce. Alyssa Rower has been by my side for over a decade, helping me navigate issues from the... unexpected death of my former spouse to employment change considerations and financial management complexities. Alyssa has provided her personal insight in all domains, and has connected me to talented experts in areas outside of her primary field. She is responsive, reassuring, and an incredible ally for women and families navigating tumultuous situations. Whenever I’m faced with a critical decision, I check in with Alyssa for an objective opinion I know I can trust. I’m fortunate to have met Alyssa years ago and grateful for her ongoing counsel.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I'm a matrimonial attorney-mediator and a long-time colleague of Alyssa's. That I chose to hire her to handle my own divorce says more than I could do justice to in this review! Alyssa has all the qualities one would want in the attorney handling their matrimonial matter. She's whip-smart and extremely organized; nothing escapes her. She's an incredible advocate for her clients, and a wonderful colleague to have on the opposing side of a case. She's a leader within our professional community, and she operates at the highest level of integrity always. I would - I did - hire her in a heartbeat!"
