Great Attorney

I hired Susan to represent me for a divorce last year just before Christmas. She was extremely responsive and very supportive and was able to get my husband to give up his craziness and to settle our case. We signed divorce papers a about 2 months ago and we are waiting for the final divorce to come... through. I was very happy with her services amd spent a fraction of what my friends paid to their divorce attorneys. My husband and I have a fair deal and we now get along. Susan knows when to fight and how to calm down situations. If it wasn’t for her, my children’s college funds would have been spent on attorney fees.

Outstanding Legal Services

When you meet Susan Kassel, you will immediately sense her professionalism and knowledge of the law. I retained her for two matrimonial cases over the years and both cases were settled quickly and fairly. Most importantly, I believe that she understands the emotional strain of divorce better than ...anyone. She always returned phone calls promptly and the legal fees were fair and affordable. I give her my recommendation !

Attorney You Can Trust Your Life With

Susan represented me in my divorce. I was worried, nervous, anxious, and downright scared. Divorce is one of the worst things that can happen in your lifetime. When it came to the first four way, I felt like no showing. Five minutes with Susan, her presence was calming, I knew she would fight for... me and not needlessly make me spend money, she would also gave me the right advice and not just what I wanted to hear. All of a sudden things changed. She was prepared and has a great way of dealing with the otherside. I can’t thank her enough.

Knowledgeable Attorney

Susan has been the family attorney for 20 years. She did two divorces for me, a prenuptial, 2 real estate closings and most recently a trust for my family. I like working with her because she knows a lot about all types of law. She mainly does divorces and family law but also does other things bec...ause divorce and family spills into so many other areas. She is very responsive and her staff is super helpful and knowledgeable as well. Her fees are fair as well. She has always treated me fairly. My children now use her too.

Can’t thank her enough!!

I had been in an ongoing custody/visitation nightmare for almost 3 years when I was referred to Susan by a co-worker. I'd already fired 2 lawyers and was at the end of my rope. My ex was putting my child thru hell and using the court system to do so. I was helpless. I was devastated b/c my child was ...the victim. When I met Susan I was wary as I had been screwed over twice before. I listened and by the end of our consult I knew I was in the right place! She made me feel at ease and that everything would be all right. Susan promised me that she would be the only person handling my case and she would answer every phone call and have my back no matter what. My previous attorneys were part of a firm and I'd often get a lawyer who had no idea who I even was! Susan kept her promise! I had her cell # and she even called me back when I had and issue with my ex during a holiday! She was a pit bull and NEVER backed down. She fought for me and my son as if we were family. Her fees were the same as every other good lawyer and my sons welfare was worth every cent! She was SMART and got the job done! I would recommend her to anyone just like she was recommended to me! I promise, you will not be disappointed.
