AMAZING LAWYER!!

I recommend Ms. Royers to anyone. My case started with my wife pushing me out of the house by getting a protective order against me. My Ex hired what appears to be very intimidating lawyer. And at first he was intimidating in to my eyes. Very soon I realized that it was all the opposite, I had hi...red and a "Giant Lion". I mean, The lady kick some serious ass!. She very was responsive, always prepared and did not miss a beat. My ex accuse me of almost everything imaginable. So she could get a speedy divorce. Ms Rogers Protected me during every accusation! Ms Rogers was Fair and she fought not just for me but more importantly for my KIDS. In court she was just incredible and in the end the real truth came out. I ended up getting the divorce and I got my kids back. There is no BS with her, She will tell it like it is. She knows the Law and she made me feel always confident that I had a GREAT Lawyer by my side. And GREAT she was indeed. I will be always grateful to her.

Highly Recommend

Beth is fantastic! I was amazed when I watched her in action during my child custody trial. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and I could tell she actually cared about my opinions and worked with me to achieve the outcome I desired. She kept me informed during the entire process leading up... to my case and offered advice in regards to various events that transpired while waiting for the trail date. She quickly responded to any voice message I left for her, and the majority of e-mail messages were answered in under a few hours from the time I sent them, even on weekends. She even took time to respond to a question that I had left for her while she was back home dealing with a family emergency. Furthermore, I could tell she spent a great deal of time planning for my case, and it was evident once we were inside the courtroom. My son was only a year old when my separation began, and it was a really hard and stressful event. I had seen other men go through divorce and child custody, only to get a fraction of time with their children afterward. I even had a marriage counselor, who I went to see with my wife, telling me I would be lucky to get my son 35% of the time. Well, I now have shared legal, and shared physical custody of my son which is what I wanted all along! I will definitely be using Beth for my divorce and will be at ease knowing she will handle it.

Great Customer Service from Beth L. Rogers

Beth Rogers is extremely easy to work with. She is forthright in her views but most importantly she listens and responds to her client's desires. She responds quickly to both phone calls and emails. Through email, she minimizes the wait states normally expected in dealing with busy lawyers. In ad...dition, Beth Rogers is strong and passionate when she deals with opposing counsel. Her disposition is no nonsense and straightforward. She is expert in the field of separation and divorce and cares a great deal about the effect these events have on all involved and strives to minimize the consequences.

Referral for a dicorce attorney

I am working with Beth on my divorce. I realize that all divorce cases can be emotional and difficult on family members but my case was especially difficult. In my case it was extremely difficult to reach any agreements or conclusions with my spouse. The disharmony began to take a personal and prof...essional toll on me. Needless to say, the disagreeing can become very expensive too. Beth worked diligently with my spouses attorney to reach agreements on matters concerning child visitiation, communications and of, course finances. More importantly Beth provided me with sensible advice when I grew tired of reacting rationally iwhen confronted with hostile and extremely irrational behavior. In other words Beth talked sensibly to me and explained why taking the high road, even in the face of such misbehavior, was the best decision for my future and my childrens' futures. I feel i have more control over my future and relieved knowing that I will have legal counsel that is working to reach an equitable legal conclusion on a case. And that is important to me because this isn't just my case. This is my divorce. My family. And our future.

Seems Aggressive and Helpful but Lacks Experience

Beth may appear aggressive and emotionally wanting to help your case, but she tries to settle cases and push you to agree to things that may not be in the best interest of the child. She doesn't charge you for every little thing, but she doesn't get very involved either. She could have stopped my e...x from taking things to court if she would have called the appropriate BIA and PC to push them to act in the child's best interest. She is quick to blame the client when things go wrong.

Replied last January 31, 2013

It is unfortuntate when someone's situation does not go as they would hope it would. Attorney's can't control the behavior of the opposing party, their counsel, or their own client. They can only advise and guide them. It is human nature to want to blame someone when things do not go as you want them to. I aggressively advocate for my client's in both settlement negotiations and in court. Sometimes settlement is the best option as things can be worse in court. I have worked regularly with BIA's and PC's and know how to communcicate with them professionally. Everyone does not always have the view about what is in the child's best interest and when it is an emotional situation it is very difficult.
