Superb Attorney, you will not be disappointed.
Ms. Michelle Haskin has represented me during a very involved and contentious family custody and divorce matter this past year. I cannot express how satisfied and grateful I am to have had such exceptional and dedicated representation from her during this tumultuous time. Michelle's willingness to understand and absorb every detail about my case, while applying her outstanding knowledge and experience in her field, has been astonishing to me. Because of these attributes, Michelle was able to quickly and best respond to any false allegation brought against me as a parent during pre-trial hearings and trial. In addition, I was extremely impressed with her ability to cleverly and skillfully present the proper evidence and questions during trial, contributing to the success of my case. Another important quality of Michelle that made me always feel comfortable and at ease, was her timeliness in responding to my emails and phone calls. As busy and well sought out that she is , Michelle has made me feel like I was her only client. She was also very reliable to file very meticulous petitions, motions, and other needed documents to the court without delay! One of the most underlying reasons why I write this letter, is the trust that I have in Ms. Haskin. I have ALWAYS felt that Michelle has looked out for my best interests, and genuinely fights hard and aggressively to get the most favorable results possible for me. I find Michelle to be a very honest person who advises her clients candidly. In addition, I have never felt exploited by her, like I have with past attorneys. For the few reasons I write above, along with so many more high regards that I have not mentioned, certainly explains the respect that I have noticed by her peers , within and outside of the courtroom. She is truly an amazing and dedicated attorney in Matrimonial Law, and I will highly recommend her. In summary, she is not cheap, but if you can afford her, do not hesitate to hire her in matters of family custody, divorce, or similar matters!

Excellent, Professional Attorney
Michelle has been my attorney over an exceedingly difficult, protracted, litigated divorce involving very complex financial and custody issues. My case went to full trial and throughout the process Michelle was a stand-out, quick thinking, detailed, knowledgeable, dedicated, and highly professional attorney. Michelle's incredible ability to dissect and present complex, legal and financial matters as well as her top-notch expertise and outstanding professionalism definitely were the reasons my case was successfully won in court. I am most grateful to have had Michelle as my advocate and attorney throughout every step of my case. I strongly recommend Michelle L. Haskin.

The Best Advocate to Fight for You and Your Children
You could not have a better attorney in a custody and divorce situation than Michelle Haskin. She is highly skilled, experienced, insightful, compassionate, ethical, and extremely professional. She is very well respected in the legal community as an attorney of high integrity. She understands how difficult and scary it is to be dealing with custody matters and knows how to get the best possible results to protect you and your children. She also tells you what is realistic to expect or accomplish so you don't have expectations that are not likely to be realized. With her as my attorney, I was able to successfully complete and get through the stress of a custody trial knowing I was in the hands of a true expert. With her on your side, you will be in the best possible position to protect your children. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
