Linda MacElree (Lynn) is knowledgeable, tenacious, a formidable opponent and passionate about practicing family law. Lynn has been the head of her own boutique law firm concentrating in family law matters since 1987. After clerking for the Honorable Leonard Sugerman, Lynn has practiced for over 30 years, concentrating exclusively in the area of family law in Chester County.
Lynn has a straight-forward approach to cases. In a divorce matter, after determining the marital assets, her goal is to help find solutions to the division of assets and, if appropriate, Lynn will help work out an alimony solution. A negotiated divorce settlement that both clients can live with, although it may not have everything on each party’s wish list, is far better than an equitable distribution or alimony award imposed by a disinterested master or judge.
However, if a negotiated settlement cannot be achieved, Lynn is up to the task of complex litigation. Litigation requires preparation, planning, and an in-depth understanding of the issues and the law as well as knowledge of the parties, the opposing counsel and the fact finder. Lynn has 30 years of experience in family law.

Client Response and Recommendation
I have just recommended yet another friend in need of excellent legal advice to Linda MacElree, Esq, in West Chester PA.

"I have worked with Lynn on a number of divorce matters and have found her to be dedicated to her clients and to achieving the best outcomes. Most of the cases we worked on together were complex for one reason or another and required a willingness to consider alternative structures to resolve the matter."
"I have worked with Lynn on several divorce matters involving valuation of business interests and transfers of business interests and find her to be an excellent divorce lawyer."
"I met Lynn as an opposing attorney several years ago on an case involving complex financial issues and a hotly disputed custody matter. She was extremely knowledgeable and well-prepared for all court proceedings and negotiations. Since that time, I have contacted her with questions or sought her advice regarding possible strategies in other matters. Lynn has always been helpful and has provided excellent advice and insight."
