Ms. Connolly

I can’t thank Ms Connolly enough for the hard work she put forth to get me child support. She was unable to be there at my court hearing but had matters resolved before I headed into court. If it weren’t for her I would still be fighting to get child support. I am thankful beyond words for her representing me.

Divorce

Lindsay provided exceptional service after taking over my divorce case. My anxiety was eased after our very first meeting where she reviewed previous actions accomplished and we coordinated the way ahead. Her paralegal, Matthew Hall, was key in ensuring documents were completed, filed, and I was updated on progress. I am extremely pleased with the results of my case.

Incredible Lawyer

I hired Lindsay for a divorce case, and a protective order case. I was in a really bad place when I came to Lindsay I was fighting false allegations of family abuse. She was able to help me through my divorce retaining my visitation rights and got the protective order dismissed. I really thought things were hopeless but after working with her she was able to show the courts what was really going on. She was always mindful of what she was billing me and tried to save me money where she could. She underpromised and over delivered every time. If your going through a divorce hire her.
