Carolyn Jean Kalos

I am eternally grateful to Carolyn Kalos in helping me with my contentious divorce. Mediation had dragged on for a 3 year period. I decided to change to my own attorney and Carolyn had it done in 2 months. She read documents late into the night for me. She was ethical, level headed, extremely efficie...nt and very fair always. She always looked out for my interests and I am very, very grateful to her. I can’t recommend her enough.

Carolyn is an excellent divorce mediator who is always appropriately prepared in advance of a session and who quickly tunes into the key issues to help the parties negotiate an agreement that they can live with, and where children are involved, addresses all those issues as well. Carolyn is unbiased... and has an appropriate demeanor for these difficult conversations.

Carolyn was my personal consulting attorney while I went through mediation for my legal separation after 30 years of marriage. She provided both excellent legal advice and invaluable emotional support throughout the process. There were some unusual twists and turns which she helped me think through... in a creative way. She was a very strong advocate for me but also helped me maintain focus on my goal of reaching a separation agreement in a timely way with as little rancor as possible. She worked collaboratively with the mediator and my ex-husband's consulting attorney to expedite the process. I am very grateful to Carolyn and I highly, highly recommend her.

I wish I had met Carolyn years ago. My divorce was not acrimonious but it was daunting nonetheless. The mere prospect of having to have difficult conversations with my ex-husband, of navigating the byzantine paperwork made me procrastinate. It was such a relief to meet Carolyn and have our initial... conversation be so clear. The steps she laid out turned the mountain into a roadmap. Carolyn is also really very friendly, personable and professional. I am almost envious of anyone who comes across her at the very beginning of their case because they won't feel so daunted at the magnitude of the task ahead. I highly, highly recommend her.
