A great attorney!

After a long marriage, Alysia was recommended to me as the best divorce lawyer in the Hudson Valley. I found her to be very frank, practical and always looking out for my best interests. I was quite happy with the settlement we reached with my Ex and how Alysia handled the whole process. She's got ...an extraordinary tax and finance skillset, which is essential for complex and higher net worth clients, but is able to simply break things down for us laymen. Her support staff is very responsive and dependable and it feels like you're working with a real team. She's also been very good with responding and guiding me on follow-up questions I've had through the years.

Divorce

Alysia provided exceptional legal services throughout my divorce process in a strategic, solution-oriented, and supportive manner. With twenty five-plus years of experience she has the wisdom and sophistication to understand how to litigate for her clients with zealous advocacy, while recognizing the... benefit of resolving disputes to save her clients the expense, burden, and emotional drain of proceeding with litigation. And if your case turns out to be litigious, as mine did, she has superior skills to fight and win. In a nutshell, she is competent, knowledgeable of all aspects of family law, professional and not someone you want representing your adversary.

Dissatisfied

My spouse and i agreed to try her "collaborative " divorce and prior had agreed on most issues going into a meeting she got overly aggressive and nasty that my spouse ripped up our agreement and walked out. Now i am faced with expensive litigation and a spouse who rufuses to even speak with me regard...ing any issue. It appears she has her own agenda and purposely inflammed the situation

Left hanging

I contacted this attorney to handle and upcoming matter I had, paid for the consultation in which I was told she would be able to take my case. Her office never returned phone calls and then she went on vacation. When she returned after still waiting to hear about how she was going to handle my cas...e that was in roughly 2 weeks, I was told by a secretary that she would call me back that day. She did not, then the next day, i heard from another secretary telling me that unfortunately because she was too busy, she wouldn't be able to take on my case as she wouldn't have time to prepare. Time to prepare? I contacted her months ago and was simply waiting for the retainer amount so that I could legally have files transferred to her office. It was unprofessional to leave a message of this nature on a voice mail and to not evaluate her calendar and responsibilities before agreeing to take on a new client.

The best, attorney, confident and life couch ever!

Alysia is an excellent attorney with incredible legal expertise and professionalism. She is wonderful and compassionate as she works through the difficulty of separation, divorce and child custody. She doesn't forget any aspect of the situation and uses the facts to get the best results for you. ... She is upfront and honest so I always knew where I stood during the long and dreadful process. She spent a lot of time "listening" to me and helped me not only legally, but also supporting me emotionally. I could have never made it through the divorce and custody issues without her.
