Divorce

When I walked into Mona Flax’s office for the first time, I was a broken, scared, abused wife seeking divorce advice. Needing someone to help me navigate the system, who would help me and not take advantage of me. Mona and her staff were patient, kind and understanding. Never once in the process d...id Mona or her staff make me feel anything but supported. Mona is someone who will be in your corner with you. She did not just do her job she did it exceptionally well. My ex-husband tried to avoid paying me a previously agreed to amount, she was there fighting for me, asking questions and sharing all the information with me so I could make clear and informed decisions. When opposing counsel was insulting her in public, Mona behaved like a true professional, never wavering. Through all the bad behavior of my ex-husband and his attorney, Mona and her staff stood firm in their support of me and in their professional demeanor. Divorce can be an ugly business, Mona and her staff help it to be less stressful and confusing. They are an incredible group of ladies that you will be glad you hired.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
