A Child Support Lawyer You Want on Your Side

My husband and I used the Law Office of Karen Gazda several years ago and will be using her again this year to handle child support matters. Karen is an amazing lawyer. You know you are in good hands with her. She is knowledgeable, straight forward, hard working and someone you want fighting for you.... Would recommend the Law Office of Karen Gazda for anyone looking for an attorney regarding child support and family law.

Professional

I hired Karen to take over a very messy custody case. From the moment Karen was on my case things changed almost instantly. The judge's attitude was in our favor and the other attorney started to work with us. This change was because people know Karen. Karen is professional, smart, great at what she ...does, very respected in the law community, and she doesn't take B.S. from anyone! I can speak from personal experience that Karen also has a Huge heart and really does care about her clients. Over the Christmas holiday my ex did not bring my daughter to any visitation and I was heartbroken, Karen called or texted me everyday to see how i was and make sure I was okay. If your looking for an attorney look no further than Karen Gazda because you wont find anyone better and you can't argue with her results !!!!!!!!

waste of money

we hired her to handle a issue that she seemd to give us the idea she could handle it, it was no big deal- she took the money- and let the other lawyer lie continuously she didnt say anything while the other guy made his false case.more over when we infact got a hold of her to find out what was g...oing on she acted as if there was no case at all infact asked stupid qustions that proved she never bothered to look in to facts of the case and was just not a serious lawyer.she not the lawyer to have if you want to be honest.the case has bankrupted the family worst is she knows it. if you need help get a public defender. dont pay someone who doesnt care.

Easy or tough case?

Well respected in the court system, and demands it from other lawyers and will not accept anything less; Won't let you be disrespected either...by anyone. Very professional. She knows most of the facts of your case off the top of her head and can handle them well on the fly. She is very straight f...orward, so if you have a personality that can't handle that, then she may not be for you....I liked that and didn't want anything sugar coated. Won't put up with 'crap' from other lawyers and their clients...she handles their 'games' and puts them in place when needed. Great on her feet - in 4 way conferences, in trial, as well as in front of judge. Very trustworthy - you can tell her ANYTHING, and knows what not to tell the other party(ies) involved. I wanted to know everything and be prepared for everything, and that's what she did for me. She get's fired up for you, and will put forth her best efforts to get the job done. Would like to see her office be more technology efficient, which would improve efficiency for her and you; I wanted to always review, and possibly update/change filings before they went, and her assistant was always very cooperative with that process, however, I would have to physically pick them up or have them faxed to me. If you need a bulldog, and I knew I would, then I would recommend her. If you don't, and at times I didn't (very few though), she still got the job done well. Small office - only her and her assistant - pros and cons. You will only deal with her and not be bounced around to different lawyers, however, if you have emergencies, sometimes you can't reach her, but she will ALWAYS get back to you when time permits.

Highy recommended!

Karen had taken over my case. She pushed through a difficult divorce with professionalism, kindness, and a relentlessness that resulted in a divorce . A fair distribution of marital assets. Her paperwork was always accurate, delivered in a timely manner, and she always checked with me to ensure th...at what she was proceeding with was what I wanted.
