Honest

I went to Susan for a consultation and she was very honest to tell me I don't need to hire a lawyer for my divorce as cut and dry it was with my ex. I would be spending more money than I'd be getting. Very honest!!!

Worth every penny!

I recently took my ex to court who was trying to stop me from seeing my daughter. i checked out 3 different lawyers who all told me "you have a get out of jail free card, walk away" and then i met susan, she sat down listened to me, was compassionate handled everything, went the extra mile and got me... everything i asked for. Joint custody, more time with my daughter, daily phone calls and more. This woman is amazing! she made it feel like my mother was there fighting for me. She is worth every penny! She my lawyer for life now <3

Detailed, Caring and EXCELLENT Service

I had a very difficult case where I had already burned through two attorneys who were unable to get me custody of my children and complete my divorce. Susan was able to rapidly work out an agreement and not let it just malinger on like my previous experiences. She was also considerate of my financial... situation unlike all of the other lawyers I had spoken to. I highly recommend her if you want complete and caring service with an in depth knowledge of the law. EXCELLENT!

Uncontested Divorce

I was scared about filing for divorce from my husband after only 5 years of marriage. I heard nothing but horror stories from people about how expensive and how they got screwed by their attorney's. I finally got the nerve to make appointments with a couple of attorneys and out of all of them she w...as the only one that made me feel comfortable and didn't try to pressure me into anything. I finally decided to more fowarded with my life and retained her services 2 months later for divorce. She helped me so much through the worst time of my life by just answering my questions, being upfront and honest with me and walking me through the whole process. I can't thank her enough for everything she did for me.

Can't Thank Her Enough!

After talking to a few other attorneys, I hired Susan to represent me in my divorce and custody dispute. I was reluctant to go with her because she was the cheapest out of all the other attorneys I met with, but I'm so glad I did. I am 100% positive no one else would have done such a great job with m...y case as Susan and her staff. Her work is quality, her staff is reliable and her character is honorable. There is no better feeling than working with someone you can trust and from my experience I will trust her with any future cases or questions.
