Excellent representation

I turned to Brooke after hiring another firm to initiate my divorce, however that firm failed miserably and took thou$and$ of dollars. Sadie immediately went to work on my case, filing only necessary motions, arguing what needed to be done, and getting it done. She did in 8 months what my previous fi...rm failed to do over 3 years, and at half the cost. My divorce was resolved fairly and reasonably with McMorrow Law there every step of the way. I've worked with attorneys my entire career and would absolutely recommend McMorrow Law.

Got the job done!

This review is unique in that Brooke represented my husband in divorce proceedings. The lawyer I hired, Deborah Iwanyshyn, I could fill this page with complaints, but this is about Brooke. I feel Brooke kept interest in what is best and fair with both parties in my divorce. After dismissing my lawye...r, I was able to speak with Brooke and she wasted no time in completing the process. I got replies to emails in the same day with the up most professional responses. I believe Brooke truly cares about her clients and gets a 5 star in my review!

A caring and responsive law firm

Brooke McMorrow cares about her clients and their cases. She has very good instincts as an experienced attorney. Brooke takes the time to listen and she truly cares about the people she represents. Brooke's law firm is very well run and they handled my divorce and custody case. I would highly rec...ommend Brooke and McMorrow Law.

Relieved to find her!

My husband handed me divorce papers. I was devastated. He told me that I needed to find an attorney and that made me sick to my stomach. I met with a few and I felt like I was entering into a world of debt and just another number in a big firm. I was sick about it. I paid $14 in parking in the city w...hen meeting with the first attorney, and I knew that alone would kill my budget. I looked on the internet to find someone north of the city. I was so relieved and thankful to find Brooke McMorrow. I felt a connection with her immediately. Her office was easy to find, it was soothing and relaxing without any hubbub, that I felt In the city. She made me feel so relaxed and comfortable. She handed me a box of tissues and listened to my story. She allowed me to grieve through the process. When I was interviewing other attorneys, I felt like I was in a business meeting. But, not with Brooke. She quickly felt more like a friend. My divorce ended up costing significantly less than others that I had known going through this process. I am so thankful to Brooke and her staff for being there for me legally when I could barely get through a conversation without crying. She has represented me in such a professional manner. I trust her completely and I know she has my back. There are things that continue to come up with my ex and I am thankful that I still have Brooke to help me through this uncharted territory.

Attorney McMorrow helped me during a very difficult time

It’s been a little over two years since I first contacted Attorney McMorrow. My boss had referred me when I was going through a very difficult time with the possibility of divorce looming. Although we never actually met, she took time out of her day to return my anxiety-laden telephone calls and an...swer my numerous questions. She must have sensed from our conversations that there was hope for my husband and me. I took her advice and found a great marriage counselor. My husband and I have since worked out our differences and are stronger than ever in our relationship. Although Attorney McMorrow and I fortunately never had to work together on any divorce, she helped me so much.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
