Incredible Family Law Attorney!!

I cannot find enough superlatives to describe Ms. Delova-Lecher, she was truly a miracle worker representing me in my Child Custody case. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone who needs legal representation in the Family Law arena. She is professional, thorough and extremely knowledge...able.

Great Service and Legal Help !

Kristen was highly knowledgeable and gave me great legal direction. She was very honest and told me the best solution for me and my legal situation and not just what I wanted to hear. She assisted me with a custody revision which began as a very stressful situation but turned out to be a solution tha...t everyone could be happy with. She was very responsive and always got back to me in a reasonable time frame. I credit Kristen and her staff for their efforts. I would highly recommend her services.

Client centered

This attorney works well as a member of a team or as a solo practitioner. Kristen is fact driven and client centered. Kristen helped our family through a very difficult custody case and is not afraid to "put herself out there" for her clients. We owe her a debt of gratitude for her knowledge, prof...essionalism and courage.

Landlord Tenant - Rental Deposit Dispute

My wife and I had an issue with receiving our rental deposit from our landlord. Mrs. Doleva-Lecher immediately reviewed our documentation and provided us with a few options regarding how we could proceed. After discussing these thoroughly we proceeded with our chosen option which Mrs. Doleva-Lecher... executed within 48 hours. There were multiple exchanges between her and our landlord's attorney and Mrs. Doleva-Lecher promptly communicated those discussions to us. Thanks to her tenacious and diligent efforts over the course of a month our deposit was returned to us.
