Money hungry

I hired Stacy to represent me for my divorce/custody hearings, the experience that I encountered with her was that all she was interested in was money. We went to court one time and I paid her a retainer of $5,000,right after we left court she called me and stated that she needed more money. I do.... I believe this lady is trustworthy nor cares about her clients just MONEY.

Excellent Attorney

Stacey's work ethic is second to none. She knows what needs to be done to get things done right. She fights every battle tooth and nail. I consider myself so lucky to have found Ms. Schwarz.

Made it Happen

Needed Stacy to help me with a child support garnishment matter. It was complex and confusing and she was able to cut through all the obstacles and get the outcome we needed. She is results driven and makes it happen. I highly recommend her. Thanks again Stacy!

Honest and Trustworthy

Stacy was the perfect lawyer for my case. She was smart, honest and straightforward, while also sensitive and understanding. She treated me with the utmost respect and compassion. She always fought for my best interest and never failed me. She handled my case professionally and did not back down fro...m any of the challenges that arose. I highly recommend her as an attorney for someone that is seeking a divorce.

Excellent

I was referred to Ms. Schwarz after having a very bad experiencing from a previous attorney. Schwarz pleasantly kept me informed of what I would be up against regarding my ex wife’s attorney and what to expect regarding her services and the divorce process. Schwarz made me aware of any motions from ...the other side and was always there to represent me at hearing when scheduled. I’m extraordinarily pleased with the services provided by Schwarz and her legal team.
