A Kind Hearted Pitbull!

Going into my divorce process I knew I would need someone who was not only aggressive but super intelligent. I got both with Melissa. She has immensely helped me through my divorce process and are now onto the custody battle which I am very confident in because of Melissa. Thorough, thoughtful, and p...assionate. What else could you ask for from an attorney?

A Brilliant Attorney

Melissa Studin Young was an amazing attorney. I went through a year and a half long custody battle and Melissa and Jill Stone got me through it. Melissa was extremely thorough and rarely did I have to ask a question when she was done explaining something to me. She had wonderful presence in front of ...the judge and she was extremely confident. Melissa fought and fought for my case to get settled so it would not have to go to trial and got me exactly what was best for my son and I. She thought of everything possible when coming to an agreement and made sure we would be covered. I never had an issue, and never had to wait long for her to get back to me. She was so knowledgeable in the law and was respected by everyone in the court room. I would highly recommend Melissa Studin Young to anyone who needed a lawyer.

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.
