She was not just my lawyer, she was there for me

When I decided to get a divorce I had no idea where to go or what to expect from the process. LJ was referred to me by JSSA as a collaborative lawyer, and she supported me more than I ever thought possible. She showed me the ways I could go through the divorce and explained the advantages and disadva...ntages of each. LJ made sure I understood each item of the separation agreement, gave me some suggestions, and verified that I had all my priorities straight. I'm thankful for LJ's personal approach in making me comfortable and secure in my decision.

Excellent counsel

Thanks in part to LJ's wise counsel, I obtained a divorce without litigation. LJ provided me with just the right kind of guidance and support, listening carefully to my concerns and responding with recommendations and solutions that helped me obtain an outcome fair to both me and my ex-wife. She cl...ued me in about issues about which I wasn’t previously aware and provided valuable perspective. Her guidance on the procedural steps made it easy for me to file the papers myself and properly prepare for the hearing. LJ was perceptive and responsive throughout the engagement, and never suggested services that I did not need or want. When I needed specialized services, she referred me to just the right providers. First-rate counsel overall.
