Excellent Divorce Attorney

Sue handles the some of the most difficult divorce cases (including mine) with extraordinary capability. She is a wise counsel with years of experience in divorce proceedings. Sue is able to provide her clients with not only the insight but also the foresight needed to be both protective, efficient... and uniquely successful in challenging divorce negotiations. Sue's depth of knowledge and complete understanding in both financial and custodial issues makes her unique and superior in handling divorce issues. If your case requires litigation, Sue is highly skilled in court room situations. She maintains a high professional level while at the same time achieving the objectives of her clients. Sue dots her i's and crosses her t's in every situation. I would recommend Sue as an extraordinary divorce attorney whose intelligence, insights, experience and legal acumen provide a phenomenal resource when dealing with a divorce!

Handled my complicated divorce, custody and financial trials

Sue is a diamond in an ocean of sleaze. Divorce is ugly and you need a very smart, experienced lawyer. My ex and his lawyer fought dirty and lied about everything. They lied throughout the horrific custody trial and continued their terrible lies throughout the financial trial. Sue knew how to handle ...all their brutal mudslinging. She knows all the players in the system and understands the law very well. She has the street smarts and legal acuity to navigate through this very emotional, gut wrenching, torturous, complicated process. She told me from the beginning that it would be a marathon. And that she would fight for me. And she did. She worked really hard for me and my daughter. My ex was unrelenting for over 7 years and dragged me through trial after trial. He would never settle despite our efforts. Sue uncovered complicated legal and financial deceptions that most people would not have understood or taken the time to understand. She is a whip smart street fighter with a tireless fire to win and she delivers. She not only thoroughly understands the law, but she "gets" the legal game. She also cares for her clients. She puts her blood and sweat into her work. At the end of the day, she is a parent also and truly understood how heartbreaking this terrible process was for me.

Bad Advice, Watch your Pocketbook!

I hired Susan Moss together with her associate a few years ago to negotiate my divorce agreement including custody for our child and other matters. Had I known how weak the rules were that I and my (ex-)wife agreed on I would never have agreed to such a contract. But I wasn't warned by my attorneys...... My ex-wife has since violated our agreement continuously and -amazingly- I effectively can do nothing against her deliberate and completely arbitrary breaches of contract. I went to court recently to get an order against my wife on some of the most clear and basic rules of our agreement (minimum time per day my daughter gets with her father), I got this order and still the carry the costs (around $10.000) for my attorneys which I was allowed to hire in accordance with our agrement (and which my ex-wife is supposed to pay under these circumstances according to our agreement). In court Susan wasn't up to date with some of the current developments, email communication etc. and often didn't know certain rules we had negotiated in our agreement (which was a central part of my most recent law suit against my ex-wife). Good luck with this attorney!

This was not my client. I have never worked even worked on a divorce case. I believe this reviewer intended to post the review on a different attorney's Avvo profile.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
