5 STAR DIVORCE ATTORNEY REVIEW

Karen is the BEST matrimonial attorney. I've had a nightmare of an experience dealing with this entire process until her. She was my third attorney I used. My divorce was going on over 2 years and nothing was accomplished. Upon a month after retaining her she already had a 4 way set up to discuss... financials. She's very knowledgeable and I felt like she really fought for me which I haven't felt like I've had this entire process until her. She is the only one I'd ever recommend to anyone who wants a timely, thorough divorce finished within a reasonable amount of time. Her office and staff (specifically Genienne) are always very attentive and professional and always got back to me and followed up on my questions and concerns. I cannot say enough positive things about Karen and her office staff. They made this nightmare divorce much more bare able to deal with.

Great Firm Great Attorney

My husband and I have both hired Karen to represent us at different times. From child support issues to custody, Karen has come through for both of us every time. Whether she is defending us or filing petitions for us, she is reliable, very knowledgeable and you know she is in your corner. I would hi...ghly recommend hiring Karen to anyone who unfortunately finds themselves dealing with family court issues.

Highly Recommend

I retained Karen McGuire as my attorney to represent me in a divorce action following the breakdown of mediation between myself and my former spouse. Personally, there was much on the line as I was housing and caring for my three teen and young adult children, one of whom was beginning his first yea...r of college. I had obtained my nursing license during the course of my marriage and was unsure of how the valuation of same would affect my financial outcome. My instinct was to protect myself so that I, in turn, could protect my family. Once I spoke with and ultimately retained Karen McGuire, I was able to let go of much of my anxiety. When she or one of her highly capable and professional staff members told me not to worry, I didn't worry. I truly felt that each of these people had mine and my family's best interest in mind with every step of the legal process. At such a turbulent time, it was gratifying to feel that I had someone to battle for me, so that I could concentrate on my family's needs.

Outstanding Representation throughout long divorce

Karen has represented me throughout a very long and complicated divorce. Karen and her support staff have always been available, and have submitted court documents timely throughout the proceedings. Karen's answers to my many questions were always accurate, and her guidance was priceless. Karen wa...s highly recommended to me as being a strong and ethical attorney. It was evident, and reassuring to me throughout the proceedings to see the obvious respect other attorneys in the court house have for Karen. I found her to be trustworthy, knowledgeable, and intrepid. I recommend Karen without hesitation, and I would use her again if needed.

Exceptional Talent

I hired Karen McGuire in 2013. I am divorcing an angry spouse who pulls every trick imaginable. I would have been crushed without Karen’s expertise. She is brilliant and has a thorough understanding of the law. After my prior attorney watched me sink into a highly disadvantageous position, this f...irm turned my case completely around so that I was successful. I have been to Court at least 50 times, and Karen is an unwaivering professional—always prepared and ready to fight for my children and me. This entire firm is thorough, which is likely why they are highly respected in Court. Brittney Magnan has worked on my case and her knowledge and dedication have been precious. If you suspect your spouse will engage in malicious behavior, Brittney can handle it. She is outstanding and has a reassuring presence which helped me to testify in a calm, rational manner. Karen and Brittney have a rare talent in that they can tease through tremendous emotional conflict and see the relevant issues to help you win your case. As Winston Churchill said, “If you’re going through hell, keep going.” I am so grateful to Karen and Brittney for leading me through a complex legal nightmare. They have unrelentlessly fought for me, and they effectively applied the law to protect me, my children, and our future financial stability. I recommend them to all my friends and colleagues without hesitation.
