Highly recommend!

Lynn was recommended by a lifelong friend and lawyer. I'm so glad that she represented my husband and I in our case. We had the best possible outcome. Lynn was always personable, respectful, and professional. She made us feel confident that we were in good hands. She was always receptive to ideas abo...ut how to proceed and was willing to research other cases when needed. At times she would patiently educate me on the law to ensure we were always on the same page and understood what was going on. Our case became a full trial, and so I can attest that Lynn is someone you want speaking on your behalf if and when it comes to that. Her experience in the courtroom shows.

Outstanding Advice in Difficult Situation

We hired Lynn under the most difficult circumstances--our lovely daughter had been drugged, raped, and had a full psycothic break that progressed into schizophrenia. Her delusions eventually morphed so that she thought we had hurt her, and our daughter filed 2nd and 3 rd degree rape charges against... us. This was an exceptionally horrible situation as our daughter was determined to be "gravely ill" by psychiatrists and needed guardianship, but the family court case needed to be concluded first in order for us to have a chance to get guardianship to care for her. Lynn gave consistently expert advice in every aspect of this tricky situation. In fact, we liked her so much that we asked for her advice multiple times on our guardianship case in a different court. She offered multiple creative ideas for how to work through the situation that ultimately led to the case being dismissed.. She kept us focused on what was important and was super responsive--we talked to her over many late nights and weekends. A+ service all around.

Precisely the Family Counsel You Need

I had the privilege of having Lynn as my counsel during my divorce and custody proceedings. Lynn is exceedingly wise, knowledgeable, compassionate and incredibly professional. Her years of legal experience were evident from my first consultation with her, and she was always clear and concise regard...ing my specific situation and the agenda to be set for future proceedings, which provided a great deal of hope and perspective for me during this very difficult episode in my life. Throughout this matter Lynn always sought insightful solutions that would enable me and my former spouse to have a fair, equitable and satisfactory agreement and was particularly attentive towards my need to have a fair custody agreement and parenting schedule for my child. Thankfully, through Lynn’s skill as a negotiator and litigator I was fortunate to avoid having to go to trial however, had I needed to I can honestly assess that Lynn had my complete trust had we needed to pursue that route. Lynn has enormous trial experience and expertise, has acted as an Attorney for Child hundreds of times and demonstrates an acute knowledge of the local court system, its administrators and judges. Lynn was always consistent in her perspective and view on my behalf and was never in the least dissuaded during the more tense times of negotiation with opposing counsel or the court itself. Lynn was always prompt in responding to any of my queries while providing me insightful, empathetic and sensible legal advice. Divorce is a difficult enough situation, when coupled with the welfare and best interests of your child, it can seem unbearable, however, I can without question recommend to anyone that Lynn to be your advocate.

Potential Client

Very cold and strictly business. I had a consultation with her because I was needed an attorney to represent me in a divorce. All she wanted was for me to send her the retainer fee first. I was worried that she was not going to represent me to the best of her ability and just felt worse after talk...ing to her. I would not recommend her to anyone. She seemed unorganized and was unprofessional.
