Lynn is a Top Tier Attorney

A good friend recommended I utilize Lynn as my attorney for my divorce, and I am truly grateful to have gotten her as my lawyer. Lynn was so supportive and understanding every step of the way. She was knowledgeable and consistently reachable, even to the extent of making herself and her staff availa...ble after hours and on weekends in an emergency. I am relieved to be finished with my divorce, and I'm not sure how I would've done it without Lynn's expertise. If you were looking for confirmation to choose her as your attorney, this is it. I recommend her a thousand times over. Thank you Lynn!

Non responsive/ non supportive/ waste of time and money

Lynn was recommended to me and I retained her. She is clearly too busy to take on clients and was never able to assist me. She also made me feel unseen, unsupported and at fault as part of an abusive marriage. If you want an attorney that will respond to you calls or emails and that will fight for yo...u do not work with Lynn. For over a month th I have been working to get the balance of my retainer back, to ice the cake. This was an all.around horrible experience working with this law office.

Absolute worst Attorney!

I found out the hard way just because an attorney is elected as the president of the bar association doesn’t mean they’re any good. She loses documents, fails to file, does not listen to you, overcharges, inflates charges, does not do her job. Attorney is supposed to watch out for your best interest.... She failed in this numerous times. Also found out that she changed documents and used my signature on documents I never signed or saw. . She lets the opposing counsel do her work for her during most of the case. How ethical is that? As a client attorneys work for you and are supposed to do what you request, she refused, and failed to protect our right on numerous occasions. During court trial she couldn’t find documents most of the time, she had to ask opposing counsel for documents. She was more concerned about missing her vacation doing her job. She was clearly unprepared for the trial and then had the nerve to charge an exorbitant amount which she clearly didn’t deserve. She Clearly, didn’t know my case many times, asking me for advice, or what to do. There was absolutely no follow up on discovery. And where she was supposed to file contempt charges, She forgot or failed to do so. She left my family vulnerable, and now spouse stopped, paying in accordance with the law and the order that was issued by the court and now, all the bills, child support and maintenance stopped. When it was reported to her, and she refused to do anything about it. She tried to force me to settle, and when I refused because the law is clearly on my side, she spent all the time looking at her phone, and taking care of other other clients instead of my family, And she was still charging me for it. Charging me while she’s taking care of other clients instead of listening to me we’re talking to me or advising me. The absolute worst attorney. When I asked her question, she told me she didn’t have time to explain it to me. When I asked her to support her recommendation by showing me the law that states or supports what she’s recommending, she refused to do so, she said she didn’t have time. The absolute worst attorney, I found on the bill that she tried to stick me with, many of the charges like a three hour phone call never happened.

Lynn Zimmerman is wonderful!

Lynn Zimmerman is absolutely wonderful to work with! From the very first interaction, Lynn and her team made me feel seen, heard, and respected. Lynn is 100% honest and 100% fair. I was assured that although my case will be a process, that everything would work out in my favor, and Lynn certainly hel...d true to her word. Lynn was never too busy to respond to an email, or return a phone call; night and weekends included. When Lynn represented me in court, she provided a sense of safety and security, and a feeling that my daughter and I mattered. Lynn fought for me and I was awarded every single thing I asked for. She changed my family’s life in the best way, and we will be forever grateful. Thank you Lynn, and thank you to your team. We appreciate you all more than you will ever know.

Best Family Law Attorney

Lynn-Poster-Zimmerman is the best family law attorney I have ever had the pleasure to work with. From our first meeting, she explained everything to us in terms we could easily understand & was always very responsive when we had questions. This could have been very hard on our daughter & her girls,... but she made it easy for us to understand every part of the process. Thanks to Lynn, our daughter & her girls are living together in a safe place. If anyone is looking for a knowledgeable Family Law Attorney at a great price, Lynn-Poster-Zimmerman is it!!
