The lawyer we all need.

Ms. Chamberlain is the best lawyer I have ever!! I recommend her and rate her a 10 out of 10.

I will always recommend Margaret Chamberlain!

Margaret handled my divorce with grace, compassion and ease! She and her staff really made a hard time much easier on me. She always placed my best interest and the best interest of my child first. Margaret is diligent and did an excellent job handling all of the details of my divorce. She is very kn...owledgeable and always sets expectations so I never felt like I was getting caught off guard. She went above and beyond even after the divorce was final. I highly recommend Margaret and will always consider her my go to lawyer.

She is my attorney for life

I have been a client of Chamberlain Law Firm for over seven years! I first came to Margaret in the middle of a custody battle. Prior to meeting with her I tried to handle things on my own and landed myself in a very precarious position. I did not wish to fight with my ex, but simply do what was go...ing to be best for the two young children. My ex had other plans. In hindsight I wish I would have met with her sooner. If you are considering whether you should or shouldn't get an attorney… You need to just come speak with Margaret. She is a wealth of knowledge! I won't bore you with the sob story that was my life. All I can say is Margaret took ALL my mess...and it WAS a mess! She explained very thoroughly what my expectation should be, what I should do, what I should be prepared for. From the first time that I walked into Margaret Chamberlain's office and met Deanne and Kathy I felt cared for. I felt like they understood my goal was to protect my children and not to hurt someone else. Over the years I have grown very fond of those women not just on a personal level, but I have the upmost respect for their level of professionalism and and competence. I have never called with a question that couldn't be answered, and if they didn't have an answer Deanne was sure to get back to me promptly. I have asked this law firm for help on many different occasions raging from divorce decrees, child custody and visitation, contempt hearing's, and modification of orders. I have referred close friends to her as well and they have been ecstatic with their results! In the end we all want what's best for our children, or maybe we don't have children and someone is trying to take advantage of us. It's important to have someone like Margaret protecting you.

Thanks to Chamberlain Law Firm

2016 was a very tough year for my family. My step daughters mother made some significant changes in her life that would have taken an A student out of an excellent school, 400 miles away from everything she knew and loved. Including friends and family, moving her the unknown with a new stepfather th...at was not out for her well being. We were terrified for what her future was to hold. We were scare, angry, very upset... anxious. Margaret and her staff felt like family, they understood how and why we felt what we felt. And we felt their concerns for our daughter as well. They understood this was our world right now and we just needed the safety of this child to be put first and foremost. Deanne and Kathy were always sure to understand any concern when we contacted the office whether via email or phone so as to relay to Ms. Chamberlain in the best to their ability for her to get back to us with an answer promptly. My step daughter had a change in custody to her father - temporary custody end of summer 2016. Father got sole custody mid summer 2017. Both very unusual results. Thank you all so much!!! We are so grateful.
