Professional, knowledgeable, and thoughtful

My experience with Ms. Epilone was incredibly positive. Both she and her staff were professional and knowledgeable in relation to the expertise needed for my specific case. This allowed for quick resolution. In addition, the entire staff was kind and non-judgmental which allowed me to be at ease and ...share all pertinent information without worry.

Custody Case

Alison, was definitely an amazing advocate for me, first and foremost understanding of exactly what I wanted during our consultation, she was always honest with me and very informative in whatever queries I had. She was very professional, as well as her team. Even when I wasn't present in the cour...t conference, I felt confident that she handle my case as if I were there. She represented me well and in the end I received what I wanted for my case. I would definitely recommend her.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alison as a divorce attorney, 10/10

My divorce was one of the most difficult times in my life. During a process that is fraught with conflict and stress, Alison was a guiding light in helping to secure a fast and fair resolution. She expertly navigated the court system and provided superb advice at every stage, delivered in a professio...nal and compassionate manner. I was worried about the cost of getting divorced but her billing is very fair and transparent. Most work was performed remotely via e-mail and telephone, she is an excellent communicator so there was minimal need for in-person meetings. I never felt like I was kept waiting for a response. She was happy to provide advice to help myself and my ex try and figure things out ourselves before resorting to legal intervention which saved thousands of dollars & lots of stress. I'd not hesitate to recommend Alison's services if you are looking for a superb divorce attorney who will be an excellent and fairly priced advocate for you. 10/10.
