Highly recommend

Ms Depalo is very knowledgeable as well as compassionate. She walked me through my separation step by step and made sure that there were no questions unanswered. I highly trust that she has my best interest at heart. I recommend Ms Depalo and her staff.

Appointment Feedback

As a long-term client of Ms. DePalo's, I have found her to be an exponentially trusted, professional, and diligent legal representative. Specifically, I recently contacted her to handle a legal matter which was completed with timely feedback and detailed expertise. Not only is her staff knowledgeab...le, but they are also friendly, understanding, patient, and expeditious - qualities necessary when helping a client. Anne-Louise DePalo is a discerning and adroit lawyer who is honest and candid with her advisement and she demonstrates a level of empathy and geniality throughout an appointment. Based on my experiences with Anne-Louise DePalo, I will continue to utilize her legal skills for my future needs, and I will also highly recommend her services to anyone needing them.

Highly Recommend

After months and months of trying to maneuver the family court system myself I retained the help on Ms. DePalo and it was the best thing I ever did for myself and my children. Ms. DePalo and her staff were attentive, responsive, and genuinely cared about my case and my situation. Ms. DePalo succes...sfully obtained my post-divorce judgment modification with favorable results despite the other party trying to drag it out and create delays which would have resulted in more costs and pain to my children and me. Her knowledge of the law and her ability to successfully negotiate was a tremendous relief. All of the results I was hoping for were obtained and then some. I would highly recommend Anne-Louise DePalo and her staff to anyone looking for successful results and I can’t thank her enough.

review

I met Anne Louise Depalo in 2006 when i needed her services from her law firm for my divorce and joint custody of my children. Due to her expertise and knowledge of the law i got joint custody of my children and very pleased on how my divorce was settled. I have had a need to go back to her during ...the last several years ,each time sitting with Anne Louise is like being with a friend in which she has always made me feel comfortable because she could smile and laugh easily which would put me at ease. I trust her judgement and know because of her knowledge my issues will be handled in the best possible way. For this reason I highly recommend Anne Louise to anyone and everyone i know. Anne Louise is an excellent lawyer and has created a staff that are friendly and knowledgable to compliment her firm.
