Fantastic

She is really empathetic and very responsive when I contact her. She has helped me navigate some really tricky family law stuff

Excellence at law

The best family lawyer, criminal expertise and even in my case for a small traffic violation, she was right at the point and knew exactly what to do. No more worries or headaches, and my case was resolved immediately.

Great for Divorce

Vicki and Barb were amazing throughout my divorce. Vicki will not waste your time/money with pointless meetings or calls, but she will show up for court prepared and organized. She made my spouse's attorney look incompetent and unprepared when she walked in with a binder for testimony with color-code...d tabs for each section that we covered. Vicki was able to find a case law that got my foot in the door in a court system that otherwise would have refused to hear my case and continued to let my financially dominant ex continue to exert power and control through financial manipulation. But mainly, Vicki and Barb truly care about you on a human level and will treat your case with care and compassion. The family you created being legal broke apart is NEVER an easy thing but I am sure that having Vicki and Barb's support made it so much better than it otherwise would have been. Thank you!

Great lawyer

My lawyer helped me in a divorce case. We are still/end of the case now. She has been working with me on this case for about 3 years and have walked me through every step. I appreciate her not talking aver my head and explaining everything to me. I thank her for reassurance when I’ve been overwhelmed.... She’s a great lawyer and knows her stuff.
